  1. Socially engineer a rumor
  2. Find a boyfriend
  3. Strut down an imaginary runway on University Avenue
  4. Watch Jerry Springer all day (or I suppose Maury would do too)
  5. Lock yourself in your room and get hotmess drunk, then regret it in the morning
  6. Prank phone call
  7. Redesign your room
  8. Work out then eat ice cream
  9. Experiment with fireworks
  10. Sell stuff on Craigslist for 4 times its worth
  11. Dye your hair and style it into something cool (then post pictures online and get made fun of)
  12. Log-in to your old myspace account…LOL

  18. Scare your roommate and get it on camera
  19. Study…just kidding
