// EFFECTS: sets college to wherever I decided to transfer to. Doesn’t take
// the reason into account (severe illness) and that one day I just stopped

// my name.

// EFFECTS: activates obsessiveness trait (studying really does this). 
// REQUIRES: You get to this function when at your worst physically. This
// includes a compulsion to study for organic chemistry at 2am and yell at
// yourself over a 98% on an exam. Also be sure to have a very consistent
// routine. God forbid someone messes with your routine.

// a new heart. You’ll remember the touch of his hand and the way that his
// parents cried and the nurses clapped as he was wheeled down the hallway.
// This will inspire you to eventually shadow a pediatric cardiac surgeon
// in the operating room. Remember to be grateful.

// singing janitor and the kind fellow that you became friends with!

// school. So, unlike what you did when you were younger, don't erase people
// from your life if you get angry with them. TODO: TALK TO THEM!!!
