DARE TO BE DIFFERENT If you want to get what everyone is getting‚ do what everyone is doing. To my mentor‚ to my fellow classmates‚ friends‚ ladies and gentlemen‚ good afternoon.

Maybe your brother listens in on your telephone calls‚ or you dad wears those goofy pants whenever you friends spend the night and you mom insists on calling your friends parents to make sure they would be home during the party.
