 | Set the mood. Now might not be the time to show your friends your fondness of Jewel or Nsync (my roommate in colleged loved Jewel, I can guarantee its a mood killer just coming back from class let alone at a party). You know what crowd your into and what they would dig work it. |
 | Over light any areas. Nothing is a bigger turn off than a bright room. Come on, think about it. Your gonna be drunk and there are gonna be some people you just don't wanna see. |
| Make sure you put stuff away. There isn't a bigger drag than having a party and having your stuff broken too (or stolen.) |
| Forget to leave room for dancing. This is where the difference between hanging out and a party is created. Face it with a party there is dancing. |
| Remember to get something to throw away cups and cans in. With a bunch of people in one place you don't wanna have to leave a ton of unneeded trash around. |
| Run out of stuff to quick. What fun is it if your party is dry before the clock strikes midnight |
| Pick the right music. No offense or anything, even though Korn and Limp Bizkit might be great bands they also have their place. You don't need any added aggression, make it a relaxing environment. |
| Forget to get enough girls. Pretty simple, pretty easy, but can't be stressed enough. Sausage parties aren't the greatest. |
| Have a stock pile of paper towels and toilet paper ready. Nuff said. |
| Use glass cups. Get the good old 16 oz. Igloo cups. You can throw them away and they don't break. |
| Remeber to have a bottle opener. I know I've seen them open with lighters and tables but spare your furnitare and actually be prepared (same thing with lighters.) |
| Forget to tell a few key people you like. These people are the ones that spread the word, hopefully bringing people (especially of the opposite sex) you like. |
| Watch out for people who had enough. You can say your looking out for them but the real reason is you don't want them puking all over your stuff. |
| Keep any doors or areas unlocked that you don't want people to get into. They will get into them. |
