Whatever might be going on in your life -- a heavy workload, a budding romance, a hectic traveling schedule -- don't compare your situation to anyone else's, no matter how sorely you're tempted. You're going your way, and everyone else is going theirs. Of course, that doesn't mean you shouldn't try to connect with some of them. This is a great time to hook up with friends, have a date, or go to a party. The main point is, if you go at your own pace today, you'll get somewhere.

vivacious, allegiance
