The difficulties, hardships and trials of life, the obstacles one encounters on the road to fortune are positive blessings. They knit the muscles more firmly, and teach self-reliance. Peril is the element in which power is developed.~ W. Mathews

Once all that's out of the way you'll be free to enjoy yourself, preferably by doing something slightly unusual or even rather wacky.
