FOREWORD by Courteney Cox Arquette
ROMANCE
There's a lid for every pot
You should always be driving, even from the backseat
There is no Happily Ever After
Lead your own conga band
The football captains of today are the burger jockeys of tomorrow
You be the judge, Judy
WORK
So jump already
Do what you love
A good bluff can get you anywhere
Jobs will suck along the way
Compliments won't pay for the Porsche
If there isn't a door, kick in a wall
Your way isn't the only right way
Other women are not the enemy
It never hurts to kiss up
Go with your gut
No drama queens in the office
SOCIAL LIFE
Cut your friends a break
You don't have to have all the answers
When it comes to friends, know your Pumas from your pumps
Just go to the damn party
Learn how to work a room
Things that seem simple but aren't
Every girl's sure-fire tips for working a party
It never hurts to make a fool of yourself
Don't screw up a good friendship for a guy
Being shy is no excuse
FAMILY
Everyone's family is as freaky as yours
Yes, they're clueless, but it won't kill you to play along
Your mom will always make you crazy
Brothers and sisters are extra special friends
C'mon, who else is gonna make your bail?
MONEY
Keep your own purse
More on money
Know your comfort levels with $$$
Friends don't let friends borrow money
You can't follow your dreams if you can't pay for the gas
Don't be a crybaby negotiator
While you're at it, ask for double the raise
LIFE TIPS
Learn to be alone!
This is the best part of the head cheerleader's life
Grades really do matter
Everyone gets bummed out
Take a nd look at the dweeb
Stamp out your inner critic
The person who tells you to celebrate your period has never had one
Just when you thought I'd said it all about periods
Be who you are!
Debate's da bomb
Stop obsessing about your weight
Win free money now
