Rule 1: Life is not fair -- get used to it!

Rule 2: The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping -- they called it opportunity.

Rule 6: If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you are. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one. 

對了，小弟我懶得翻譯，
感謝Google，馬上就找到一篇翻譯給大家參考：

1.人生是不公平的，習慣去接受它吧！

2.這個世界不會在乎你的自尊，這個世界期望你先做出成績，
再去強調自己的感受。 

3.你不會一離開學校就有百萬年薪；
你不會馬上就是擁有行動電話的副總裁，二者你都必須靠努力賺來。

4.如果你覺得你的老師很兇，等你有了老闆就知道了，
老闆是沒有工作任期保障的。

5.在速食店煎漢堡並不是作賤自己，
你的祖父母對煎漢堡有完全不同的定義：機會。

6.如果你一事無成，不是你父母的錯，
所以不要只會對自己犯的錯發牢騷，從錯誤中去學習。

7.在你出生前，你的父母並不像現在這般地無趣，
他們變成這樣是因為忙著付你的開銷，洗你的衣服，
聽你吹噓自己有多了不起…

8.在學校裡可能有贏家和輸家，在人生中卻還言之過早。
學校可能會不斷給你機會找到正確答案，
真實人生中卻完全不是這麼回事。

9.人生不是學期制，人生沒有寒暑假，
沒有哪個雇主有興趣協助你找尋自我，
請用自己的空暇做這件事吧。

10.電視上演得並不是真實的人生。
真實人生中每個人都要離開咖啡廳去上班。

11.對書呆子好一點，你未來很可能就為其中一個工作。
