Survival Guide : Living with 10 Girls Part 4

Tip #11: Appreciation
Develop an appreciation for the small things like getting to eat at the restaurant of your choice or amazing things like being by yourself. When living with 10 people in a small living quarters with no kitchen, you develop the magical ability to hear the exquisite sound in silence. It's so beautiful and subtle; the inaudible sound that fills the air when you're alone in your over populated living quarters. It happens so rarely that when you realize no one else is home, you may just sit and listen to it. It's important to appreciate the small things because it keeps everyone grounded and humbled. Appreciation forces you to recognize that as a person, you are not entitled to anything and that you should be grateful for everything.

Tip #12: Desensitization
I highly suggest developing a desensitization to things that may be typically viewed as vulgar profane, unorthodox, and simply inappropriate. For these things are indeed inappropriate, but they are of common teenage lingo so it's best to be desensitized to some things that you may hear. Teenagers are immature and may make jokes that are stupid. They may also play in a way that is silly, noisy, and inconsiderate. It's best to remember that they do not intend to fend or incontinence anyone, they more don't really recognize the disturbance they've caused until after the fact. As mentioned previously, teenagers are immature so if something is really offensive, just publicly express your offense in a calm tone because it embarrasses them. They will stop.

Tip #13: Share
Sharing encourages others to share with you. That sharing may consist of food or of personal feelings amongst each other. Either way, the sharing promotes bonding and that is extremely important when living with 10 girls. Plus, if you don't share, they won't care, and take some food regardless. Easiest way to remember is sharing is caring. 

Tip #14: SQUAD UP
Everywhere you go, squad up. You must always be with another person, especially in a foreign place. Everyone else will protect you just as you protect them. There is safety in greater numbers. Plus, when you travel in squads, your group selfies are that much better.

Tip #15: Learn To Love Them
In the end of all the sleepless nights, the endless random hairs, and the possessed Blanka orangutan screaming matches, it's important to learn how to love them. They are extremely annoying a lot of times, but they are still biologically people and require to be loved as so. Different individuals need various types and degrees of love and affection. Moving into a room of 10 girls, it's natural to be unaware everyone's individual requirement or limitation of affection. By the time to move out, you have learned how to properly love others as they have learned how to properly love you.
