  • What to do when someone gets homesick at camp: other counselors, parents of campers, program director, nurse
  • What to do when the boys you babysit for start to fight: parents, other babysitters, older siblings
  • Procrastinating work: other students, professors
  • Approaching people of higher authority (parents, teachers...)
  • Packing/organizing a suitcase
  • Making my bed
  • knowing the subway system in NYC and how to get around: NYC police, MTA authority, my friends because they've been living in NY their entire life
  • planning other peoples birthday parties: my friends because they are just as social as I am
  • finding the best clothes and shoe sales: my sister, she knows where all the sales are and where to find the best deal.
  • staying up late when I need to get something done: my roommate, she can stay up the entire night studying for a test the next day, other students

It amazes me when I wake up in the morning and my roommate, is not there. Rather than sleeping, I wake up to her walking in from the library pulling an all-nighter, studying for an exam. I would use her as a way of explaining how she pulls off, not sleeping for at least 6 hours, prior to a large exam the next day. She is a good example because first of all, she is clearly capable of doing so, and how she keeps herself from going to bed is questionable. Although I can pull of the same idea of staying up late, she makes pulling an all-nighter, a whole different story.
