9) I will commit myself to something, not just someone.

8)  I won't take any crap from upperclassmen. I'll be strong and earn their respect.

7)  I will make friends out of my professors and teachers out of my friends.

5)  I will never use the words “I” and “can't” together.

4)  I will substitute “That's embarrassing” in my vocabulary with “Who really cares anyway?”

3)  I will prepare for the worst. If anything less happens, I'll be that much better off.

2)  I am smart, I am unique, I am powerful, and I'm going to start acting like it NOW!
