13.) Send gifts everyday.
14.) Play farmville when you can't sleep, when you are angry and when you are bored.
15.) Send gifts more than once a day, (since you have increased the amount of time that you spend playing).
16.) Expand your Dairy Farm, finally complete your beehive, let your pigeons fly, master wheat and cotton and place your animal trough.
17.) Notice that you've moved up several levels within a short period of time. Think "Hey, I bet I set a record," and feel like you've really accomplished something.
18.) Buy a Post Office, a school house, tractors, and storage space. Open a few market stalls and share bushels.
19.) Open your bakery. Continue mastering crops. Hatch eggs. Fertilize your friends farms so you can win some "Fertilize All."
20.) Build a haunted house, collect candy, buy a princess costume for your farmer.

21.) Talk about the woman who killed her baby over Farmville. Tell people how absolutely ridiculous that was.
22.) Since your fiance is not home, log into his Facebook page and send yourself Farmville gifts.
23.) Create a fake profile to send yourself more gifts.
24.) Go to Farmville's Facebook page and look for more farmers to befriend.
25.) Collect dishes for your Thanksgiving Feast, build a turkey roast, ask for turkeys, build three orchards, master Black Roses, expand your turkey roast, ask for more turkeys, place your baby animals in the gates, because the nursery is too full, water your mystery seedlings.

26.) Get happy when your trough is full and you find animals wondering around on your farm.
27.) Set your alarm clock for 6:55 am, because your White Pumpkins will be ready to harvest at 7. Your white pumpkins allow you to make more Casserole in your bakery.
28.) Harvest your White Pumpkins and OH LOOK!!!! You have just mastered the crop. Yes! Three stars for you :)
29.) Go to the bakery, level up that Casserole recipe and feel a sense of satisfaction.

30.) Continue cropping while you wait impatiently for Zynga to release the new Farmville winter items that they keep displaying on the loading page.
