Place the tray in the freezer for about 10 minutes. Place the containers into the freezer immediately. Thaw the bean sprouts in the refrigerator when you’re ready to use them.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

You don’t need to let the bean sprouts freeze completely while they’re on the sheet, just until they begin to harden. Check the sprouts after about 10 minutes to see if they’re ready.  If the bean sprouts still feel soft to the touch, leave them in a little longer. Check the sprouts every 5 minutes until they reach the desired texture. You don’t want the bean sprouts to begin to thaw, so it’s best to get them back into the freezer as quickly as possible.  Since bean sprouts are still delicate even when they’re frozen, it’s best to place them in an area of your freezer where they aren’t likely to be disturbed or crushed. Label the container with the contents and the date to help you remember how long they've been in the freezer. Your frozen bean sprouts will stay good in the freezer for 10-12 months. It’s best to let your bean sprouts defrost gently, so place the bag or the container into the refrigerator and let them gradually come up to temperature. Defrosting them in the microwave or by other methods may cause the sprouts to become soft and mushy.  It will take a few hours to defrost the bean sprouts in the refrigerator, so plan ahead if you're planning to cook with them. If you'll be adding the bean sprouts to a hot dish like a soup or a stir-fry, there's no need to thaw them first.


Place the tray on a flat surface in the freezer. Allow the ice to freeze for several hours. Remove the cubes from the tray for storage.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

When the ice cube tray is filled, it's time to put it in the freezer. Many freezers have an area that's meant to hold ice cube trays, but if yours doesn't, find a spot where the tray can sit on a flat surface to allow the cubes to freeze evenly. The back of the freezer tends to be the coldest, so try to place the tray as far back as you can. In order for the water to freeze into solid cubes, you'll need to leave the tray in the freezer for approximately six hours. For best results, however, leave the tray in the freezer overnight. How long it takes for the cubes to freeze depends on how deep you filled the tray and how crowded your freezer is. When the ice cubes have frozen solid in the tray, you should remove them. Storing them in the tray exposes them to the scents and tastes in your freezer, which can lead to poor tasting ice. Pop the cubes out of the tray, and store them in an airtight freezer bag or plastic container.  Some ice cube trays come with a cover. If yours had a lid, you can store the cubes in the tray. This way, the tray will catch any potential drips or spills. You shouldn't leave ice cubes in the freezer for more than a week even if they're in an airtight container. Make a fresh batch if your ice is old.


Place the unripe avocado into a brown paper bag. Add a banana, apple, or tomato to the brown paper bag. Store the bag, closed, at room temperature. Check regularly.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The bag is used to trap the ethylene gas, which ripens the avocado. Make sure there aren't any holes in it! The paper bag is just a trap. If you can devise some other mechanism that will trap in the air in the same way, great! That can be used, too. Your grandma might tell you to store it in the flour bin, but you may have to settle for the empty McDonald's bag. Bananas are best, but the other fruits will do it, too. Some prefer using an apple because it can be used over and over again, even after it becomes old and wrinkly - it still emits gas.   If you have none of these, but another avocado or two, put them all together. These fruits emit more ethylene gas that other fruits. And the more ethylene gas they produce, the quicker everything will ripen. Keep it out of sunlight; 65º-75º F (18º-24º C) is best. If you don't have extra fruit in your bag, this will take 2-5 days. The added fruit will speed the ripening process considerably and it should ripen within 1 - 3 days. Your avocado is ready when it is easy to peel; feel it to see if it gives slightly as sometimes it's hard to tell by colour. An unripe avocado will be nice and green. As it ripens, it will get hints of purple and black (that's when you can use it in about 2 days). When it's ready for your next meal, it's so dark green/brown it's practically purplish black.Once it's ripe, it will keep in the fridge for a few days, but it will lose its taste as time progresses.


Place the victim on his or her back. Place the heel of one hand on the victim's breastbone, 2 finger-widths above the meeting area of the lower ribs, exactly between the normal position of the nipples. Place your second hand on top of the first hand, palms-down, interlock the fingers of the second hand between the first. Position your body directly over your hands so that your arms are straight and somewhat rigid. Perform 30 chest compressions. Give 2 rescue breaths.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Make sure he or she is lying as flat as possible - this is to prevent injury while you're doing chest compressions.Tilt their head back by using your palm against their forehead and a push against their chin.   Don't flex the arms to push, but nearly lock your elbows, and use your upper body strength to push. Press down with both hands directly over the breastbone to perform a compression, which helps the heart beat.  Chest compressions are more critical for correcting abnormal heart rhythms (ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia, heart rapidly quivering instead of beating).  You should press down by about 2 inches (5 cm).  Do the compressions in a relatively fast rhythm.  Some agencies recommend doing compressions to the beat of the chorus of "Stayin' Alive," a 1970s disco hit. If you are trained in CPR and totally confident, give 2 rescue breaths after your 30 chest compressions. Tilt their head and lift their chin. Pinch their nostrils shut and administer 1-second breaths mouth-to-mouth.  Make sure you breathe slowly, as this will make sure the air goes in the lungs. If the breath goes in, you should see the chest slightly rise and also feel it go in. Give a second rescue breath.  If the breath does not go in, re-position the head and try again.


Place the violin on your neck and shoulder. Place your chin on the chinrest. Angle your head properly.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

You should rest the broad end of the violin onto your left collarbone with the neck of the violin facing outward. It should feel like a relatively natural, stable position. Lower you head straight down until it touches the chin rest. This may feel slightly less natural, but you also shouldn’t be straining yourself too dramatically. Your chin should only drop, not stretch. Now that your chin is on the chinrest, angle your head a little to the left so that you are looking 90 degrees from your violin. You want to angle your head in such a way that the chin rest runs along your jaw and ends at your chin.


Place the wax and oils in a double boiler. Turn the heat up to medium and let everything melt, stirring occasionally. Add the tea to the mixture, and let it steep off-heat. Blend the mixture until it is creamy. Transfer the mixture into a glass jar and let it cool. Store the jar in a cool, dry place.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Fill a pot with 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) of water. Place a heat-safe glass bowl on top, then add the following: ¼ ounce (7.11 grams) beeswax pellets, 1 ounce (30 milliliters) almond oil, 1 ounce (28.35 grams) coconut oil, and ¼ teaspoon rosehip seed oil. As the ingredients melt, they will start to turn clear. You know they are ready when the color is translucent and no clumps remain. Take the bowl off of the pot and set it down onto a heat-safe surface. Add one bag of green tea into the melted oil and beeswax mixture. Let the tea steep for 15 minutes. You can keep the tea in the bag, or you can cut the bag open and pour the loose leaves into the mixture. You can do this with a hand mixer or a food processor fitted with a whisk. Keep mixing until the mixture turns room-temperature and creamy. If you added loose-leaf tea into the mixture, strain it through a fine, mesh sieve first. Choose an 8-ounce (240-milliliter) jar with a wide mouth. Use a rubber spatula to transfer the mixture into the jar. Let the mixture cool down further, then close the jar. This cream is great to use in the mornings and evenings. Use it within 3 months.


Place the wrapped knife in a cardboard box and throw it away. Recycle the knife. Contact a professional knife-sharpener. Consider donation. Sell it for scrap metal.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you're intent on throwing away the knife, place it in a box before throwing it out. Make sure to seal the box with duct tape before tossing it in the garbage. This minimizes the risk of injury to your garbage person. If your local recycling center accepts metal, you can recycle a knife. If you're unsure about your recycling center's policies, call during business hours and ask. Make sure your knives are wrapped and secure before recycling them. Even if you no longer have use for the knife, it may be worth your time to contact a professional knife-sharpener. Check the yellow pages and the internet to see if you can find a knife-sharpener in your area. A knife-sharpener may be interested in purchasing an old knife as it can be repurposed and used in repairs. You might also want to donate the knife. Even if the blade is dull, someone may be interested in purchasing it to sharpen and re-use. Check with local businesses like Goodwill and the Salvation Army to see if they take knives as donations. Try to figure out what kind of metal your knife is made out of. Most knives are made of steel, iron, or some mixture of metals. Depending on the metal type, you may be able to sell it for scrap. Look online or in your yellow pages and make some phone calls. See if anyone is interested in buying your old knife for scrap.


Place them in the sun. Choose a good potting soil. Add fertilizer. Prune the dead parts off of your plants. Avoid sudden transitions from indoors. Protect from pests.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Plants need sun in order to convert carbon dioxide and water into their food and energy. While potted plants are often easy to arrange on porches and balconies, they still need access to proper sunlight. Check your plant’s insert or information to see if it needs full sun or can thrive in the shade. Remember that shade-friendly plants still need indirect sunlight to stay alive. Your plant will need soil that is formulated for potted plants because they are growing in a different situation than plants that are in the ground. One of the ingredients that your soil will need is decaying organic matter, which is in most good potting soils. Organic matter will break down into the nutrients that your plant needs to absorb to be healthy. Potted plants require more added nutrients than plants that are in the ground, so regularly add fertilizer to your soil. Supplement your soil by adding organic matter either through a commercial fertilizer or your own composting. Some fertilizers are liquid and can be added directly to the watering can you use to water your plants, making it an easy part of your plant care routine. If your plant has wilted leaves or buds, remove them from the rest of the plant. This will encourage new growth instead of allowing your plant to shrivel up. If you start a plant indoors or have moved it inside over the winter, don’t move it permanently outdoors without a transition period. A plant that is accustomed to living indoors is not equipped to survive outside. The environment is different and can cause the plant to wither; additionally, the rain levels can cause overwatering. Choose a chemical-free pesticide treatment that’s formulated to protect your plants. Different plants attract different pests, so read the label to make sure that you pick the right product. Don’t try to kill all bugs, as some can be friendly to your garden.


Place three cards into separate piles. Start to form your pyramids. Set up the fourth row of cards.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

These will be the start of your “peaks” or mountain-ranges, which will then interconnect at their bases.  Keep in mind that you want to form the piles with cards from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. However, make sure to remove all Jokers from the pack before starting.   Be sure to keep the cards turned over so you can’t see what they are. You should have 28 cards laid out by the end. From the first card at the top, place two down (back side up), and then three more below them - forming a pyramid. You also want to make sure the cards touch the corners of the cards above them, though you can also layer over them. However, at the base, make sure the three pyramids do not touch each other. This last level should interconnect the "peaks" or pyramids together. You will want to have four for each set, so 12 altogether. These are also the only cards you should turn over. Any remaining cards can be placed in a stockpile to the side, which will be used later.


Place toe separators between your toes. Paint the tips of your toenails. Dip a brush in pure acetone. Create a thin, white line. Use a nail strip.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

These will prevent the nail polish from smudging against your other toes as you wait for it to dry. Toe separators can be purchased at any drug or beauty supply store near you. If you do not have any toe separators, you can place cotton balls between each toe to achieve the same effect. Use a white nail polish, such as OPI T71 “It’s in the Cloud,” and paint the tips of each toenail. It does not matter which polish you use for your French pedicure, as long as it is an opaque white. Let the first coat dry and then apply a second coat so that the color is more pigmented and doesn't look splotchy. Let the second coat dry as well. Pour 100% acetone in a small bowl. Dip a makeup concealer brush in the bowl containing the acetone. Blot the excess acetone on a paper towel. Both of these things can be purchased at a beauty supply store, such as Sally’s or Ulta. Use the brush to begin removing excess white nail polish until you create a thin, straight line. The concealer brush is designed to help you create very straight lines. Move the brush slowly along the polished area to create the desired white French tip. Rather than using acetone to fix the white nail polish and create a straight line, a nail strip will help you to create a straight line with less fuss. These can be purchased at any drug or beauty supply store.  Apply the nail strip a few millimeters away from the tip of your nail. These usually are made to peel off the packaging paper and stick to the surface of the nail. Apply the nail polish to the portion of the nail above the strip. Don’t worry about mistakes; the strips are there to prevent mistakes and uneven lines. Let the polish dry completely, then remove the strips.


Place toys in your conure's cage. Provide an exercise outlet for your conure. Consider putting a mirror in your conure's cage.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Conures like to be kept busy. Without things to do, your conure could become bored and resort to feather picking. Giving your conure a variety of toys will keep her happily entertained. Popular toy types for conures include foraging toys, wooden chew toys, and shredding toys.  Foraging toys mimic your conure's natural food foraging behavior in the wild.  Shredded toys can help your conure relieve stress and boredom. If you don't want to purchase a shredded toy, you can place some newspaper in the cage for him or her to shred. Avoid toys that have small parts. These parts could catch on your conure's beak or claws, possibly leading to damage or injury.  Keep different types of toys at your conure's cage at all times to prevent boredom with any one toy. Consider installing a play stand in your conure's cage that can hold toys.  All types of toys can be found at your local pet store. Conures need lots of exercise to stay happy and healthy. Swings, and ladders would provide your conure with plenty of exercise during the day. For the ladders and swings, install them at heights inside the cage that will keep your conure's tail from rubbing up against the cage bars. Mirrors can be a good choice of enrichment to keep your conure busy. However, introduce him to a mirror only after he has bonded with you—otherwise he may bond with the mirror instead of you!  Mirrors can also encourage mating behavior (e.g., regurgitating food, tail lifting).  Mating behavior can be especially problematic in female birds, since they can lay eggs without a mate. If you have a female conure, mating behavior can lead to spontaneous egg laying that could result in physical stress and illness.  Your conure could see the mirror as a "love toy."  Speak with your veterinarian if you are unsure about placing shiny objects in your conure's cage.


Place trivets, oven mitts, or thick towels under hot pots and pans. Place trivets under toasters and toaster ovens. Do not cut directly on your Corian countertops. Do not use scouring pads or steel wool on your countertops. Avoid dropping heavy pots on the countertop. Prevent spills of paint remover and oven cleaner.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Be careful to protect Corian from heat, as it’s a relatively heat-sensitive countertop. Never move pots or pans directly from the stove or oven onto the countertop. Use heat-safe buffers under any of these items.  Be sure to place buffers under crockpots as well. Some toasters and small ovens have outer surfaces that can get quite hot. These heat-generating appliances may slowly damage your countertop if they’re left directly on the surface of the material. Trivets come in all shapes and sizes, so you should be able to find ones that fit beneath these items. Knives will make marks in Corian countertops. While these scratches can generally be repaired, it’s better to avoid making them in the first place. Use a cutting board whenever you need to chop or slice something. Abrasive cleaning tools will dull the surface of Corian countertops. This may make the color appear faded, especially if your countertop has a glossy finish. While these items likely won’t scratch the material, it’s best to avoid them. Corian is slightly less durable than granite or quartz, so it’s more susceptible to dents. If you drop something heavy on the surface, you may cause a bit of damage. Exercise caution when moving and lifting these items. If Corian experiences prolonged exposure to these strong chemical cleaners, they may eventually damage your countertops. If a spill does occur, immediately wash the spot with soapy water and a wet sponge. Then rinse and dry the area.  Also avoid acid drain cleaners, acetone nail polish removers, and any cleaners that include methylene chloride. If you spill nail polish on your countertop, use a non-acetone nail polish remover to clean it off.


Place two dice in a cup. Roll the dice in the cup, then place it on the floor mouth down, concealing the dice. Take bets on whether the total of the dice is an odd or even number. Remove the cup to reveal the outcome.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

In Japan, where the game originated among traveling gamblers who sat on a tatami floor, the cup or bowl is made of bamboo. Traditionally, the dealer rolling the dice sits in a kneeling position with buttocks touching heels and tops of feet flat against the floor (the ‘’seiza’’ position) and is shirtless, to prevent any accusation of cheating by concealing extra dice in sleeves or pants. Players may bet against each other, or against the house.  Players who bet “Cho” are betting that the sum of the dice will be an even number (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, or 12). Players who bet “Han” are betting that the sum of the dice will be an odd number (3, 5, 7, 9, or 11). When players bet against each other, typically, the same number of players will bet “Cho” as bet “Han.” Losers pay winners, with the house taking a percentage of the winnings if the dealer is employed by a gambling house. The game is commonly played today by members of the ‘’yakuza’’ (Japanese mafia)  and is featured in  yakuza and ‘’chambara’’ movies. It is also featured as a minigame in the ‘’Ryu ga Gotoku’’ (Yakuza) series of video games.


Place two dumbbells on either side of your body. Position yourself properly. Squat down and grasp the dumbbells. Keep your core strong while you stand up. Hinge at the knees to lower the dumbbells back down.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The dumbbells should be slightly in front of your feet. Make sure that the weight of your dumbbells is appropriate for your strength. Your feet should be spread slightly wider than your shoulders. Point your toes forward. You could also point them slightly outward; the result will be the same. You should squat with a flat, neutral back. Make sure that your shoulders are pulled away from your ears. Keep your head in line with your spine, though if it more comfortable you can tilt your chin up slightly. Make sure that your gaze remains straight ahead (if your eyes wander, so will your head, which will in turn shift your spine.) Make sure that your chest is lifted. Make sure that your heels stay firmly on the floor, and that your shoulders are slightly in front of the balls of your feet. Your abs help stabilize your spine when you begin to lift the dumbbells. Straighten your knees and then your hips before coming to a fully upright position. Your elbows should be straight and the dumbbells should rest by your sides against your thighs. Your hips and shoulders should rise up and straighten at the same time. You should try to keep the dumbbells as close to your body as possible while you straighten up. Your hips should move backwards and down as you begin to squat back down to the ground. Try to avoid bending your knees so that they are far ahead of your toes. Keep your back straight and avoid curling your tailbone in or arching your back. Make sure to keep your abs strong and engaged while you lower back down. Keep your shoulders back and lowered while you do this lift and squat.


Place two pop tarts on a cutting board, frosted-side-down. Spread ½ cup (72 grams) of ice cream on top of each pop tart. Place the other two pop tarts frosted-side-up on top and press down lightly. Cut the sandwiches in half widthwise. Dip the sides of the sandwiches in chocolate chips or sprinkles, if desired. Wrap the sandwiches and freeze them for at least 2 hours.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Save the other two pop tarts for later. You can use any type of pop tart for this, but flavors that do well in this recipe include: Cookies & Creme, Frosted Chocolate Chip, and Hot Fudge Sundae. You can use any type of ice cream flavor for this, but cookies-n-cream, cookie dough, or vanilla would work the best. Use an ice cream scoop to scoop out the ice cream, and a rubber spatula or knife to help you smooth it down across the pop tart. Make sure that the ice cream goes from edge to edge. Make sure that the edges are aligned. Press down lightly on top of the sandwich so that the ice cream reaches the edges. Use a knife or spatula to smooth down any ice cream that sticks out of the edges. If you need to, use a sawing motion to cut through the pop tart crust. This will give you four smaller ice cream sandwiches. Fill a bowl with mini chocolate chips of sprinkles. Take an ice cream sandwich, and dip each of its four edges into the bowl. The chips/sprinkles will stick to the ice cream and give your sandwich and extra crunch. Carefully wrap each of the sandwiches in plastic wrap and stick them into the freezer. This will harden the ice cream back up and hold the sandwiches together.


Place warm water and vinegar inside a sealable bag. Make a satchel of baking soda. Place the satchel of baking soda inside the sandwich bag. Seal and shake the bag. Toss down the bag and watch the explosion.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Another good way of making a bomb bag is to wrap baking soda inside paper towel and place it in a sandwich bag of vinegar. The baking soda gradually mixes with the vinegar,  working in a similar way as using two bags, though easier to activate. To begin, place ¼ cup (59.14 ml) of vinegar and ¼ cup (59.14 ml) of warm water inside a snack sized bag. To make the small pack of baking soda, place one tablespoon (14.78 ml) of baking soda in the middle of a 6 by 6 inch (15.24 by 15.24 cm) square of paper towel. Then fold the sides of the paper towel in to make a sort of parcel that holds the baking soda. The satchel of baking soda doesn't have to be completely foolproof, but it should be able to sit without the sides folding down and the baking soda pouring out. Once you make the parcel of baking soda, place it carefully inside the sandwich bag, making sure that no baking soda falls out of the satchel before you have time to seal the bag. After you place the satchel inside the sandwich bag, immediately seal the zip on the sandwich bag. Then give the bag a shake until you see the satchel coming undone and the baking soda pouring out. Once you see that the satchel has unfolded and the baking soda is mixing with the vinegar, toss the bag down somewhere outside or on an easily cleanable surface. Watch the bag expand and then explode like a bomb.


Place your Hoya near a window. Hang sheer curtains if you place your plant in front of a south-facing window. Give your plant additional sunlight to help it bloom. Let the potting soil dry out almost all the way before watering a Hoya plant during the spring, summer and fall. Water Hoyas in the morning. Dump the excess water out of the saucer beneath the container. Let the potting mix dry completely before watering your plant in the winter to encourage the Hoya to have a rest period. Recognize signs that your plant is being watered too much, or has rotted.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Sufficient light is one of the most important contributing factors when trying to get a Hoya to bloom. The ideal location indoors is right in front of a window facing east or west where it is exposed to two to four hours of direct sunlight. Your plant should also be exposed to bright, indirect light during the rest of the day. It can also be placed in front of a window that faces south, as long as there is a sheer curtain between the plant and the window to help diffuse the hot, direct sunlight. When the plant is left in a south window all day without a sheer curtain for shade, the leaves will scorch, becoming very pale or tan. If the Hoya plant is over three years old and is still not blooming, try giving it one or two more hours of direct sunlight each day. Other signs that the Hoya is not getting enough light are new leaves that are small and pale green, long sections of bare stem, slow growth and dead mature leaves. Use water that has been left sitting in an open container for 24 hours or more. Leaving the water to sit allows the chlorine and fluorine, chemicals found in tap water that can harm a Hoya plant, to dissipate into the air naturally. The water will also be at room temperature which is better for Hoyas. Fresh tap water is very cold and could stress these tropical plants. This allows the plant to retain its moisture during the day. Distribute the water over the potting soil evenly until it begins to drain out of the drain holes in the bottom of the container. If left in the saucer, the excess water could wick up into the container and keep the soil too wet. Wet soil deprives the Hoya roots of oxygen and encourages root rot. A winter rest period helps Hoyas bloom the following spring or summer. Hoya plant leaves will turn yellow and drop if it is being watered too much. Water it less often. If the leaves continue to turn yellow and drop, turn the container on its side and gently slide the Hoya out of the container. Shake the potting soil off the roots to get a good look at them.  If they have...


Place your Hoya plant in bright, indirect sunlight. Keep your Hoya in temperatures over 50 °F (10 °C) minimum. Expose your Hoya to high humidity whenever you can. Keep your Hoya in a pot with good drainage. Repot your Hoya every few years when it outgrows its pot. Use a lighter soil mix to allow for better drainage.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

While Hoya plants need a lot of sunlight to thrive, direct sunlight can cause them to bleach or dry out. As a result, try to place your Hoya so it gets about 6 hours of indirect sunlight per day. If you notice that one side of the plant gets more sun, rotate your Hoya every few months so that the whole plant gets the sunlight it needs. If you store your Hoya outdoors during the warmer months, make sure that you do not place it directly in the sun’s rays. Instead, choose a porch or area that is partially covered but still bright. Hoya plants grow best in warmer temperatures between 60 °F (16 °C) and 60 °F (16 °C). In order to keep your Hoya alive, the room temperature will need to be at least 50 °F (10 °C).  While Hoyas tend to thrive in temperatures below 80 °F (27 °C), they can tolerate heat up to 95 °F (35 °C). If you live in a warmer climate, you can keep your Hoya outside as long as the temperature conditions are right. When the temperatures start to drop in the fall and winter, however, you will likely need to bring your Hoya indoors. While Hoya plants can survive in moderately humid conditions, they tend to thrive in higher humidity. To expose your Hoya to higher humidity, try to store it in a place that has a higher humidity, such as a sun porch or greenhouse. If you don’t have a place to expose your Hoya to high humidity inside, you can put your Hoya outside on humid days to help it grow and thrive. When putting your Hoya outside, make sure that it is not directly in the sun. Hoya plants are very sensitive to overwatering, so it is important that you keep your Hoya in a pot that has a drainage hole at the bottom. Sitting it water for too long can lead to root rot, which can quickly cause your Hoya to die. If the current pot doesn’t have a drainage hole, you can avoid root rot by drilling a drainage hole into the existing pot or repotting your Hoya into a new pot with drainage. Hoyas tend to thrive best when they remain in the same pot for a long time. They prefer to be rootbound, so as long as your...


Place your RFID cards next to each other in your wallet. Carry your RFID cards in a front pocket. Be aware of other people around you when using your credit cards. Use your RFID cards at home for online purchases only. Monitor your credit card statements for usual activity or errors.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

This can make it more difficult for thieves to read a particular card, but the protection is limited. If you usually carry your credit cards in a wallet in your back pocket, you are potentially more vulnerable to thieves who could step up behind you with a scanning device.  If you switch the cards to a front pocket, you will tend to be more observant of people in front of you and are less likely to become a victim. Some of the newest RFID technology limits the opportunity of thieves to scan your cards to short distances and only at the time of the sale. Before using your card in a store, check around you to make sure that nobody is standing within a few feet of you, and your transaction should be safe. If you are really concerned by the RFID technology, this is a possible way to go, and you can then use other credit cards or cash to purchase things outside your home. However, identity theft through online computer use is probably a greater risk than using the RFID technology in a store. This may not actually prevent thieves from stealing information from your card, but monitoring your statements regularly will help you and the credit card company identify any unauthorized purchases and can limit your potential losses.Some sources say that regular monitoring of your credit card statements is actually the “best” protection against identity theft.


Place your arms around the girl. Lift with your legs. Keep the girl close to your body as you carry her. Keep your back, shoulders, and neck straight. Have her hold on for added support. Put her down when you feel tired.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

To start, place your arms around the girl you want to carry. You can place one arm around her back and the other arm around the bend in her knees. Have her place her own arms arounds your shoulders to make the process of picking her up easier. When lifting an object heavier than a few pounds, you want to lift with your legs instead of your back. This prevents back strain. Squat down and position your arms around the girl. Then, move upward, lifting your own body with your legs instead of your back.  You can keep your balance by spreading your feet apart slightly before lifting, providing you with a wider base. If you feel you're losing your balance, you may want to set the girl down and start over just to be safe. When carrying a heavy object, you should keep that object close to your body. A human body is no different. If you carry a girl closer to you, the process will feel more intimate and romantic.  Pull the girl in close to you. Have her pull herself in close by nestling in your arms. You can gently squeeze her legs and back, bringing her body closer to your body. When carrying a heavy object, keep your back, shoulders, and neck straight. Try to consciously bring your shoulders back when carrying a girl, straightening out your back. You may stumble a bit as you carry a person, but try to do your best to keep your body straight. Imagine a vertical line is drawn between your ankles and the tip of your head. You do not want to drop a person you are carrying. This can cause injury. For added safety, ask that the girl hold onto you. She can gently wrap her arms around your shoulders for support. As most people weigh over 100 pounds, carrying a person can be strenuous work. Only carry a girl as long as you feel comfortable. When you begin to feel strain in your muscles, gently put the girl down.  Squat slightly, lowering your body with your legs and not your back. Lower the arm that's holding her legs, allowing her to safely place her feet onto solid ground. Help her stand back upright if she stumbles at all...


Place your baby in the tub. Keep a hand on your baby at all times. Start washing your baby. Do not step away from your baby. Take your baby out of the tub. Clean the tub.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Your first step in bathing your baby is to introduce them to the water.  Take your time and gently place your baby into the water and allow them to get used to it.  Hold your baby in the following manner when you are lowering them into the bath:  Place one hand under the baby's bottom. Place your other hand under the baby’s head, supporting both the head and neck. Don't put your baby in the water too quickly as this might alarm them. You will always need to keep at least one hand on your baby during bath-time.  Taking both your hands off is too risky and can open your baby up to the danger of drowning.  Never take a chance and always keep full control over your child's safety.  Keep one hand under the baby's head or neck at all times. Use your free hand to wash your baby. Once your baby is safely in the water you can begin to bathe them.  Most parents will begin by washing the child's hair and head, before moving down to wash the rest of the body.   Keep some of the following tips in mind when cleaning your baby during their bath:  Start by washing the baby's head or face.  You won't always need to wash their hair. Gently pour water over the baby's body during the bath to keep them warm. Gently move down the rest of the body. Try to clean in between any skin folds. Wash your baby carefully and gently. Try cupping your hand to keep any rinse-water from entering the baby's eyes. Wash your baby's diaper area last. No matter what, do not ever leave your baby unattended during their bath.  Doing so puts them in harm’s way, opening them up the danger of drowning.  It only takes 3cm or around 1 inch of water for a baby to drown in and they won't always give obvious signs that they are in trouble. After your child is clean you can take them out of the tub.  Make sure you have a good and safe grip on them as you remove them from the water and dry them off immediately.  Remember some of the following tips when removing your baby from the tub:  Pick them up with both hands, placing one under their bottom and the other...


Place your boat on the water. Get into a boat. Pilot the boat.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Find a calm spot on the water, select your Boat from you inventory, and then right-click on the water. Your boat will be placed. If it is placed on a current, it will start to follow the current.  A boat can also be placed on land by right clicking. It can be controlled on land but its movement will be extremely slow. They also sink into ground so you may need to get out by destroying a block beside it. The boat can be placed on lava, but it will break when you try to enter it. Right-click on the boat to enter it. You can do so from any direction, including beneath it after diving. Press the left Shift key to exit the boat. The boat will go in any direction you are pointing your cursor when you hold the W button. Pressing the Back S key will quickly turn the boat around in the opposite direction.  Boats are extremely fragile, and can break easily in a crash.To prevent them from crashing, slow down before you get near an island. If a boat does get destroyed in a crash, it will drop three Wood Planks and two Sticks. If the boat is destroyed by an attack, (skeleton shoots it) it will drop a Boat. You can Sprint while using the boat to move slightly faster.


Place your bottle in the fridge promptly. Seal the bottle with plastic wrap and a rubber band if you lost the cork. Store wine in the fridge for 3 to 5 days. Place the bottle in lukewarm water to slowly raise its temperature.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

When it comes to storing wine, heat and oxygen are your enemies. Sealing your bottle and placing it in the fridge as soon as you’re done drinking is the simplest way to slow down the oxidation process that turns wine into vinegar.  While it’s common knowledge that red wine should be enjoyed at room temperature, red wine should still be refrigerated after it’s been opened. A wine fridge is a great option, too. It'll keep your wine cool enough to slow oxidation, but not as cold as a standard refrigerator. If you accidentally threw away the cork or screw cap, wrap the top of the bottle with plastic and secure it with a rubber band. You can also invest in inexpensive wine stoppers, which are made of plastic or metal and create an air-tight seal. You can find them online or at wine, liquor, and home goods stores. The exact storage time depends on the type of wine, but 3 to 5 days is a good general guideline. Even after 5 days, it’s worth doing a taste test. While the flavor might be a bit off, many wines are drinkable for at least a week after being opened.  Wines with higher tannin levels and acidity will keep longer. A full-bodied, tannic cabernet could last a week without major flavor changes, while a delicate pinot noir could last 1 to 2 days. Organic and older wines can spoil within a day. Most red wines are best enjoyed at temperatures just cooler than room temperature, or around 62 to 66 °F (17 to 19 °C). Rapid temperature changes negatively affect wine, so warm a refrigerated red slowly by submerging the bottom of the bottle in a bowl of lukewarm water. Make sure the water is lukewarm and not hot. Start raising its temperature about 30 minutes before serving it. When you serve it, pour smaller amounts so the wine will warm in the glass faster.


Place your bottom piece on a sturdy, level area. Attach the back piece to the bottom, placing small pins between them. Use acrylic cement to glue the back piece of acrylic to the bottom piece. Repeat this process for the front and side pieces of acrylic. Test your aquarium for structural integrity.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

You’ll need to work on a flat surface that will support your acrylic and keep it level for hours at a time. Your aquarium will need to be kept on a stand to prevent the bottom of the tank from bending under the weight of the water. Consider building your aquarium on the surface you intend to ultimately place it in your home, to avoid moving the aquarium after completion. You can use tape or a clamp to attach the pieces together. What’s most important is that you place several pins between the pieces to leave a small amount of space between them.  While tape will allow you more dexterity, clamps will prevent the pieces from sliding around on the pins.  Use ordinary size-17 ball head pins that are roughly 1.0625 inches (26.99 mm) long in between the acrylic pieces. These can be bought at any home improvement store or mass retail store. Place the pins across the joint between the pieces at even intervals. Place enough to ensure you’ll have enough room to apply cement between the pieces of acrylic. Remove the pins from between the joints as you apply the cement. Let the cement dry for four hours before proceeding to the next step.  Use a syringe filled with acrylic cement to insert the cement into the joint. After the cement has been applied, immediately remove the pins. The cement will then fuse together and begin welding the plastic pieces to one another.  The pins should be removed within 30 to 60 seconds of applying the cement. Make sure you wait 4 hours before cementing each individual piece of acrylic to yield the best results. After this process the basic structure of your aquarium will be finished. You can also cut and attach a top piece of acrylic to your aquarium, fitted out with holes and openings for a lid, tubing, and other accessories. However, this is not absolutely necessary. You’ll need to make sure there are no gaps in your aquarium that may lead to leaks or cause your aquarium to fall apart. Wait at least 48 hours for the aquarium to cure before testing it.  A convenient way to test the...


Place your cell phone nearby. Wear a shirt with soft, thin material, or remove your shirt completely. Begin massaging one breast. Repeat the process with your other breast. Proceed with caution if you feel contractions.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Contractions caused by nipple stimulation can come on fast and extremely strong for some women. It is important that you do your stimulation sessions with your partner or with your phone close by. This will make it possible for you to reach out for help if you need it during/after the process. For stimulation to be effective, you need unfettered access to your breasts. When you are ready to begin, go somewhere private and arrange your clothing in a way that is most comfortable for you. Be aware that some women find that wearing a bra (especially one with an underwire) impacts blood flow and reduces responsiveness . Start by placing your areola (the dark area around your nipple) between your thumb and forefinger. Gently massage and roll your areola, slowly working your way inward toward your nipple. When you reach the nipple, you can pull on it lightly or massage it.  When you are stimulating your nipples one of the goals is to mimic the actions of a baby suckling. This is one major reason why you should only massage one breast at a time. Doing more can overexcite your system. Massaging each breast in turn will hopefully result in your body releasing oxytocin as it would do if you were breastfeeding. Another way to massage the entire breast is to place one palm over the areola and nipple while the other palm cups the outer edges of your breast. Both hands then work in tandem massaging the entire area. It is best to switch to the other breast after your nipple has been erect for one full minute. It is best to wait for 2 to 4 minutes before starting the process over again with your as-yet-untouched breast. The entire breast massage should take between 15 to 20 minutes maximum. It is recommended that you repeat the massage a maximum of three times daily. Your goal is to start labor, but you don’t want to rush directly in to heavy contractions. Those can be overly taxing for both you and your baby. For that reason, if you feel a contraction, stop massaging until the contraction concludes. If you choose to continue...


Place your culture on a mild heat source for 10-20 minutes. Scoop up a portion of worms and add them to your tank. Dip the worms into your aquarium.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

On top of your aquarium is the perfect spot. The heat will cause the worms to crawl further up along the side of the container, making them easier to harvest. This step isn't required, but it will let you harvest more microworms. Remove the container lid. Wipe the side of your container where the worms are crawling with your finger, a rubber spatula, or a spoon. By focusing on the sides, you will avoid scooping out the culture media. While a little yeast and starch is harmless, too much can foul your aquarium water.  The worms won't live more than 24 hours in water, so try not to overfeed. Be sure to replace the lid on your container as soon as possible. Watch the microworms drop to the bottom. Nematodes don’t swim, so the fish will eat most of them at the bottom of the tank. If you're counting on the current to keep them from sinking, double-check that it's strong enough. Worms that fall between pieces of gravel will be impossible for most fish to get to. It's best to use either a different substrate or keep a bare bottom tank when regularly feeding microworms.


Place your diffuser somewhere central in your room or home. Pour essential oil into the reservoir. Add the reeds to the diffuser. Flip the reeds to refresh the oils and the aroma.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The reed diffuser is the most passive way to diffuse oil around your home, so it needs movement to distribute the aroma around. Keep your diffuser in a high-traffic, central area of your room or home for the best results. Try placing the diffuser near the main entryway to the room, so you get a fresh hit of your chosen oil everytime you go into the room. Most reed diffusers will come with a bottle of oil designed of the right strength for the diffuser. Pour the oil into the mouth of the diffuser, being careful not to spill any over the sides.  Unlike other diffusers, reed diffusers don’t allow you to swap out new scents easily. Pick an oil that you like for long-term usage. There’s no right amount of oil to pour into the diffuser. Some people will pour in the whole bottle, others will add a little at a time to keep the oil fresh. Bunch the reeds together and carefully drop them into the mouth of the diffuser. Spread them out so they are separate and all point in different directions for a more even diffusion of oil. The oil will begin absorbing into the reeds and slowly filling your room with the aroma of the oil.  The more reeds that you use, the stronger the aroma will be. For a smaller room, you may only want to use 2 or 3 reeds. Adding the reeds may cause the oil in the diffuser to overflow if it’s already very full. Be careful when adding the reeds, or do so over a sink to prevent spillage. Every week or so, you may notice that the aroma from the oil begins to fade. Lift the reeds out of the diffuser and flip them over, so the end that was soaking in the oils is now facing upward. This should refresh the aroma for another week or so until you flip them again. It may help to flip the reeds over a paper towel or over your sink to catch any stray oils.


Place your electrode in the buffer with a pH value of 7 and begin reading. Set the pH. Rinse your electrode with distilled water. Place your electrode in the appropriate buffer for your sample and begin reading. Set the pH a second time. Rinse your electrode.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Press the “measure” or calibrate button to begin reading the pH once your electrode is placed in the buffer. Allow the pH reading to stabilize before letting it sit for approximately 1-2 minutes. Once you have a stable reading, set the pH meter to the value of the buffer's pH by pressing the measure button a second time. Setting the pH meter once the reading has stabilized will allow for more accurate and tuned readings. Although not necessary, if you stir your buffer before measuring be sure to stir all other buffers and samples in the same way. Rinse and pat dry with a lint-free tissue, like Kimwipes or Shurwipes, in between buffers. Press the measure button to begin reading the pH once your electrode is placed in the buffer. Once your reading has stabilized, set the pH meter to the value of the buffer's pH by pressing the measure button. You can use distilled water to rinse. Use a lint-free tissue, like Kimwipes or Shurwipes, in between buffers to dry the electrode.


Place your electrode in your sample and begin reading. Set your pH level. Clean your electrode after use.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Once your electrode is placed in your sample, press the measure button and leave the electrode in your sample for approximately 1-2 minutes. Once the reading has stabilized, press the measure button. This is the pH level of your sample. Rinse your electrode with distilled water and blot or dab dry with a lint-free tissue. You may store your pH meter once clean and dry. Consult your operation manual for optimal storage practices for your specific pH meter.


Place your face directly in front of the stereogram. Slowly start to back up. Move your head back and forth.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Whether you’re looking at a printed stereogram or one on your computer monitor, get as close to the image as you comfortably can. Don’t worry about focusing on it; in fact, try to look through the image, not at it.  It's usually easier to view the stereogram in printed form rather than on a monitor, so if you're having trouble seeing it on your computer, print out a copy to work with instead. If you normally wear glasses or contact lenses to help with your vision, wear them when you look at the stereogram. As you move away from the stereogram, your natural instinct will be to try to focus on the image. Keep your eyes from doing so by continuing to look through the image as you step back. If your eyes start to focus on the image at any point, move closer to the stereogram again, and repeat the process.  Don’t get discouraged if your eyes keep managing to focus on the image as you back up. It’s normal for it to take several tries before you get it right. It can help to pretend that the stereogram is a window and you're trying to look at something through it to avoid focusing on the image itself. At the right distance, you’ll begin to see that the patterns overlap one another and blurry 3D images may begin to appear. Continue to look at the blurry 3D image at the same distance and in the same position. It will eventually sharpen and come into focus.  Remember to have patience. It can take anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes for your eyes to naturally bring the hidden stereogram image into focus. If you lose focus on the image at any point, repeat the process from the beginning to refocus your eyes.


Place your finger on the Home button. Wait for you device to unlock. Use Rest Finger to Open to cut down on Home button wear and tear. Use Rest Finger to Open to increase unlock speed.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

This should be a finger which you've scanned into your iOS device's Touch ID memory. After a second or so, your iOS device's display should wake up; shortly thereafter, your device should be unlocked and back on the Home screen! iOS devices have long been plagued by easily-broken Home and Lock buttons; using Rest Finger to Unlock will cut down on how often you have to use these buttons. The simple procedure for using Rest Finger to Open is quicker than the default unlocking procedure; this speed is particularly helpful if you're attempting to access Siri or your maps app while driving.


Place your forms in your vise. Clamp your sheet metal in your vise. Support your excess sheet metal. Bend the metal with your mallet.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Your forms will have an edge that should match the angle of your desired bend. Situate your forms in the vise with the form block guide angle facing upwards out of your vise. One edge of your form will typically be rounded to the degree of your bend radius, thus helping you achieve your desired bend. Now that your forms are placed, you should clamp your sheet between your form blocks very firmly. Take care to keep your bend line even with the guide angle of your forms. If you have sheet metal hanging a considerable distance outside of your form blocks, you will need to support this segment so that it does not bounce too wildly and negatively impact your bend. Consider having a friend or a colleague stabilize this piece with their hand. Be sure to wear gloves to prevent any accidental cuts. To prevent damage or unsightly dents, it's best to use a rubber, plastic, or rawhide mallet to gently tap the metal. Do this until it bends toward the form block and achieves your desired angle gradually and evenly. Your tapping should start at one end of the evolving bend. Slowly work back and forth between your bend lines until the sheet metal is bent to the desired angle.


Place your glass containers in a large stockpot. Fill the stockpot with water until it covers the jars by 2 to 3 inches (5.1 to 7.6 cm). Boil the water for 10 minutes. Remove the containers from the water. Let the containers dry on your counter.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Carefully arrange your storage containers and covers in a large stockpot in order to sterilize them. They should be able to stand upright without knocking into each other.  Note that the size of your stockpot will vary depending on the size of your storage containers, and the size of your storage containers will vary depending on how much you are aiming to pasteurize. While some people try to sterilize jars in a dishwasher, it doesn't guarantee sterilization the way that boiling containers does. Put enough water into the stockpot to completely cover the storage containers so that they are heated evenly. Set the stockpot on the stove once it is full. It is best to arrange the containers inside of the stockpot before bringing the water to a boil. Glass tends to crack or otherwise break when exposed to rapid changes in temperature, so submerging the jars after the water has already reached a boil can be risky. Turn on your burner to high heat. Continue heating the water until it reaches a steady boil and then turn down the heat to keep the water at a low boil. Allow the containers and covers to stay submerged for 10 minutes after the water comes to a full boil. The containers may bump into each other a bit while being boiled. However, if the water is at a low boil, the containers should not hit each other enough to damage them. Turn the burner off once the jars are sterilized. Then carefully lift the containers and covers out of the hot water using tongs or a canning jar lifter.  Use caution when removing the glass containers since they can still break easily at this stage. Set them aside on clean, dry dish towels and allow them to air dry. Do not place the containers in a refrigerator or freezer to speed the cooling process.  Putting the containers in the refrigerator or freezer while they are hot could cause the glass to break. You do not need the containers to cool completely to room temperature. Containers that are slightly warm are less likely to break during pasteurization.


Place your guinea pig on flat, folded towels. Keep your guinea pig warm with thermal wraps. Monitor your guinea pig’s reaction to medication. Hand feed your guinea pig if they do not have an appetite. Weigh your guinea pig once a day. Bring your guinea pig to the vet if they are not showing signs of improvement.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

While guinea pigs often live in loose bedding in their cage, placing your pet on flat, folded towels can help you to keep track of their urine and stool production. It may also be easier for them to lay down and walk around if they isn’t feeling well. Your guinea pig may feel chilled due to their illness. You can use these wraps to relieve sore muscles. The thermal wraps will heat up when exposed to air and stay warm for up to eight hours at a time. Make sure the thermal wrap is not too warm for your guinea pig or too tight on them.  You can also wrap a water bottle in a towel and place it at one end of their cage for warmth. Guinea pigs with respiratory issues and digestive disorders should be kept clean, warm, and well rested during their recovery. You should note if your guinea pig’s symptoms get worse while on the prescribed medication, especially if they are on antibiotics. Many antibiotics can cause diarrhea and upset the balance of bacteria in your pig’s intestines. If you note any symptoms of a negative reaction to antibiotics in your pig, you should take them to the vet right away. The vet will likely stop the antibiotic treatment and prescribe another medication. If your guinea pig has an illness that causes them to lose their appetite, you will need to use hand feeding to try to get them to eat. Many ill guinea pigs will also stop urinating or eliminating due to malnourishment. It is essential that your guinea pig consumes food and water to help them recover.  Adult guinea pigs should consume about 6 grams of dry feed/100 grams of body weight and 10 to 40 ml water per 100 grams of body weight. You should try to hand feed your guinea pig plain food pellets softened in water with minced parsley, vegetables, and carrots. You can also combine pet slurry with wheat grass juice or natural cranberry juice to make it more appetizing. To hand feed your pig, make sure they are standing upright on a flat surface or flat on their stomach. Do not rest them on their back as this can be a choking hazard. You can...


Place your ham in the refrigerator, if it is frozen. Take the ham roast out of the refrigerator. Excise the skin with a sharp chef’s knife or boning knife. Choose a glaze or spice blend. Cut a crisscross design into the surface of the ham. Stud the ham.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

It will take between 2 and 4 days to defrost completely before you can cook it. Unwrap it completely. Discard any juices. You can cut horizontally, parallel to the meat. Leave some fat on the ham’s surface for flavor. Some hams come with a glaze that you can mix with water. Your diamonds should be 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) deep, cutting through the fat and slightly into the top of the flesh. Scoring will let the glaze seep in and render the fat from the top. You can use a clean piece of cardboard to guide the knife along the top like a ruler. If you like a traditional flavor and look, stud each of the diamonds with cloves.


Place your ham on a cutting board. Carve the shank end. Remove the slices.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Take a large knife and trim off two or three slices from the thin side of the ham, cutting parallel to its length. Then turn the ham so it rests on the flat surface you just created by trimming off the slices.  Use a very sharp knife. Having a sharp knife will help you to cut your ham in thin, perfect slices. Be sure the knife is long enough to cut through the width of the ham and use long smooth strokes to slice the ham more easily. Hold the ham with a large fork, start slicing at the shank end (which should be more pointed/tapered than the butt end). Cut thin, vertical slices across the ham, sinking the knife all the way down to the bone for maximum effect. Once the slices are cut, make a horizontal cut that is parallel to the bone. This will release the slices you've made. Place these slices on a serving platter. Turn the ham and continue carve slices using this method until there is no meat left on the bone.  Only carve the ham that you need to serve. Leave the remainder on the bone so that it stays warm and retains more of its juiciness. Be sure to hang on to the ham bone and any scraps. You can use them to make a delicious soup.


Place your hamster’s cage in a good location. Give your hamster time to adjust to your home. Approach your hamster’s cage with care. Stand near his cage. Do not handle him.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Allowing your hamster to acclimate to his/her new environment is an important building block to gaining his trust. Finding a good location for your hamster’s cage will ease his acclimation. A warm room is ideal for your hamster, especially if it is draft free.  The room should not be very busy with human activity—this may be bewildering or frightening to your hamster.  Your bedroom is usually not a good place for a hamster cage, since your hamster is nocturnal and will make a lot of noise while you sleep. Give your hamster at least a few days to acclimate to his new surroundings. During this time, your hamster will start familiarizing himself with where things are in his cage (food, water, sleeping area).  Do not be concerned if your hamster is washing his face or grooming himself excessively. These are not signs of nervous tension, as is commonly believed. Rather, he is scent marking and claiming his new territory.  Scent marking allows your hamster to recognize places and items in his new home. Your hamster will probably see you as a huge predator at first. You do not want to confirm his perception of you by approaching his cage in a threatening manner. Instead, your approach should be slow and quiet, with no sudden movements or noises. Try talking to him in a low and soft voice when you get near to, and reach, his cage. During those first few days of acclimation, your hamster may hide in his cage when you approach it. He may still be very wary of you and his new surroundings. Over time, though, your hamster should relax enough to do normal hamster activities, such as exploring his cage, when you are nearby.  Talking to him in a low and soft may help him relax and be comfortable with your presence. You do not need to stand by his cage for long periods of time. Try standing there for a few minutes at a time to see how he reacts to you. Once you see him going about his normal business when you are nearby, continue talking to him. The sound of your voice will continue to help him adjust. Consider offering him...


Place your hands on the floor, perpendicular to one other.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

When making a round-off, the first hand goes down just like in a cartwheel, but the second hand is placed down almost perpendicular to the first, so that it can propel your body 180 degrees.  Imagine a sideways "T" when placing your hands on the floor. The first hand you put down should be horizontal and the second hand vertical to achieve this "T." Make sure you don't leap into the round off. Your second foot should not leave the floor before the first hand contacts the floor.


Place your hands. Lead or follow the leading partner. Make eye contact. Use tact. Do not force her movements.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

When you arrive at your dance spot, turn to her and place your hands on her hips. She should put her hands either on your shoulders or interlace her hands together behind your neck. Another option for hand placement: take her hand with your left hand and hold it off to the side, while your free hand can be placed below her shoulder blade on her back. Her right hand will be in yours, and her left hand should be on your waist, shoulder, or below the shoulder blade on your back. This will give your dancing a more coordinated look, and is simple to perform. Keeping your feet largely stationary, shift your weight back and forth to sway with your partner.  Leading, in dance, is mostly about connection and commitment. Maintain your sway to the beat of the music, think about your motions, and if moving your feet, direct your partner by applying slight pressure with your hands. Following, in dance, requires you to read your partner and follow through steps initiated by the lead. If he holds his hand up for a twirl, try to follow the motion into a single controlled spin that ends back in default position. Sharing such closeness can be a vulnerable and exciting experience. Show her she has your undivided attention by looking deeply into her eyes, or leaning forward and telling her something sweet. Consider telling her:  Your dress is absolutely beautiful. I've been looking forward to sharing this dance with you for a while. I can't believe I get to dance with the prettiest girl in the room. Though a slow dance is a nice step toward a more romantic relationship, it's easy for you to get carried away in the moment and come on too strong. Try to avoid uncomfortable topics or any sexual suggestions, even if you feel the urge to. You don't want to give the wrong impression, or ruin your chances with someone you might have been a good match with. Leading on the dance floor does not translate to strong-arming. It's perfectly alright if she misses some steps; at this point, you're both still learning each others' style. If she...


Place your hands. Practice beforehand. Perform the step in time with the music. Be respectful.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

For this step you should use the closed position, where the lead will put his right hand below his partner's shoulder blade on her back, with his left hand raised off to the side so his partner can put her hand in it.  Holding a partner in the closed position can limit confusion while executing this step, as you can apply slight pressure with your fingertips to indicate direction of movement. Classic technique requires you to keep your thumbs pointed, not curled to grip your partner. This will help you maintain proper posture. Familiarizing yourself with the step and becoming comfortable with it will allow you to lead with confidence, which usually translates on the dance floor as graceful dancing. Your feet and those of your partner will trace a box patter on the floor, each step occupying one of the four corners of the box, beginning with the lower left hand corner of the box. Lead and follow steps are:  Lead:  Left foot forward to second corner Right foot to the right to third corner Left foot joins right at third corner Right foot back to fourth corner Left foot to the left, returning to starting corner Right foot joins left   Follow:  Right foot back to second corner Left foot to the left to the third corner Right foot joins left at third corner Left foot forward to fourth corner Right foot to the right, returning to starting corner Left foot joins right. Make sure you have enough room. This step, unlike the simple sway-step slow dance, requires space for you and your partner to perform the steps. Choose your dancing spot wisely, and impress your friends with your new moves. This step, sometimes called a box-waltz, is suited for music written to a three beat time signature. Count in your head one-two-three, and if your count fits that of the music evenly, the music is likely in a time signature you can box-step to. New dancers can get caught up in the moment and lose track of others on the dance floor. This can cause accidental injury to yourself, your partner, or others. Try to remain aware of those...


Place your hot dogs in a shallow dish. Put the dish of hot dogs into your refrigerator. Leave the hot dogs to defrost for at least 24 hours.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If they’re still in a sealed package, put the unopened package into the dish. If they’re open, line them up in a single layer. The dish will catch any runoff from the frozen hot dogs so it doesn’t contaminate your refrigerator or other foods.  For instance, you might use a shallow baking dish or a bowl. If you're thawing multiple packs, don't stack them. It's safe to place several packs in 1 dish as long as you put them in a single layer. You don’t need to cover the dish, but you may prefer to do so if your hot dogs aren’t packaged. Set the dish that contains the hot dogs on the bottom shelf of your refrigerator. Then, leave the dish undisturbed while the hot dogs defrost. There’s no need to cover the hot dogs with water. The cooler temperatures of the refrigerator will cause them to thaw. A pack of hot dogs should thaw within 24 hours. Check the hot dogs to see if they feel cool to the touch, not cold. Additionally, they should feel spongy and flexible.  It’s safe to store them in your refrigerator for about 3-5 days before you cook them. However, they’ll be safest if you cook them as soon as they’re thawed. If you’re thawing several packs of hot dogs, you may need to thaw them for longer. Allow 24 hours per 1 to 5 lb (0.45 to 2.27 kg) of food. You may not need to worry about this if you arranged your hot dogs in a single layer.


Place your ingredients onto a platter with the necessary tools.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The platter should contain all of your toppings (sliced, cut, or shredded), sauce, olive oil, a cooking brush, a spoon, and a large spatula. A pair of tongs is also useful, but not necessary.


Place your metal of choice in a pouring crucible, then melt it inside a foundry. Use a jeweler's centrifuge (Centrifugal Casting Machine) to pour the metal into the mold. Allow the metal to cool for 5-10 minutes, then dunk it slowly in cold water. Tap the mold gently with a hammer to break away any excess plaster and reveal the jewelry.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The melting temperature and time will be determined by the type of metal you are using. You can also use a blow-torch and small crucible to melt your silver. For professional jewelry, you'll need a centrifuge. This evenly distributes the metal quickly, but it is not the only option you have for casting. The more classic, easier solution is to simply pour the metal careful into the tunnel left by the base of the mold. You could use a large, metal-specific syringe to pump the metal into the mold, too. The amount of time it needs to cool is dependent, of course, on the metal melted and used. Dunk too soon and the metal may crack -- dunk too late and it will be hard to remove all the plaster from the hardened metal.  Look up cooling times for your metal before moving on. That said, if you're in a pickle you can just wait 10 minutes and then dunk in cold water. The plaster should begin  dissolving away as you shake it around the cold water. Separate the flask from the sprue base and use your fingers or a toothbrush to peel away any last bits stuck to the jewelry.


Place your napkin in your lap. Use cutlery in the proper order. Hold your cutlery properly. Begin eating once all meals are served. Taste the food before seasoning. Don’t reach across the table. Excuse yourself before leaving the table.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Before you begin eating, unfold your napkin and place it across your lap. This way no food will drop onto your clothing while you are eating. You should never tuck your napkin into the front of your shirt or dress when engaging in a fine dining experience.  Place the napkin on your chair any time you leave the table temporarily. At the end of the meal, neatly fold the napkin and set it to the left of your place setting. At a very formal dinner, you may notice three sets of cutlery around your plate. Forks will be positioned to the left of your plate (with salad forks furthest to the left and dinner forks closest to your plate), knives will be to the right of your plate, and spoons will be above your plate or to the right of the knives. Always work your way inwards with each dish. This means that the cutlery positioned farthest from your plate should be used for the first course. If you are still unsure of which utensils to use first, watch what other people at the table are doing and follow their lead. Hold your fork in your left hand, with the tines facing down. Hold your knife with your right hand. Always use your fork to spear your food and lift it to your mouth, instead of your knife. When using a spoon, dip your spoon into the center of the bowl. Scoop the liquid by moving the spoon away from you toward the farthest side of the bowl. Bring the spoon to your mouth and sip from the spoon. It is rude to begin eating while other people at your table are still waiting for their food to be served. The only exception to this rule is if the host requests that you begin eating, or if your fellow diners tell you to start eating before your food gets cold. Most chefs pride themselves on perfectly seasoning their dishes. As a result, it can be seen as a rude gesture to season your food before tasting it. At some high end restaurants there will not even be salt and pepper available on the table. Always taste the food first and then determine if you would like some added seasoning. If you can't reach the bread basket...


Place your oils and beeswax in a double-boiler. Melt the oils and beeswax. Pour the mixture into a blender and let it cool 1 to 1½ hours. Blend the mixture while slowly adding the aloe vera gel. Add 5 to 8 drops of essential oil. Mix everything together, then transfer it to a clean, glass jars. Store the jars in the fridge.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Fill a saucepan with 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) of water, then place a heat-safe glass bowl on top. Add ½ cup (108 grams) of coconut oil, 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of jojoba oil, and 1½ tablespoons (21.32 grams) beeswax pellets. Hold off on the aloe vera and essential oil for now. Turn the heat up to medium and allow the water to come to a simmer. Let the oils and beeswax melt, stirring occasionally. You are ready once they turn liquid and translucent. Make sure that your blender can withstand heat (ie: glass). If your blender is plastic, let the mixture cool down first, then scrape it into the blender with a spatula. If you don't have a blender, you can use a food processor instead. Turn the blender onto a low speed setting. While it is turning, slowly pour 1 cup (236.5 grams) of aloe vera gel into it. From time to time, pause the blender, and scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula. Use a natural aloe vera gel. Don't use aloe vera juice or homemade gel. You don't have to do this, but it will give the cream a nice fragrance. If you use the right type of essential oil, you could also benefit your skin. For example:  Acne or oily skin: lavender, lemongrass, palmarosa, peppermint, rosemary Dry or aging skin: lavender, palmarosa, rose, rose geranium Normal skin: rose, rose geranium Any skin type: chamomile, palmarosa Blend the mixture or whip it by hand until it is light and fluffy. Use a rubber spatula to transfer it into several small glass jars. ¼ or ½-ounce (60 or 120-milliliter) jars would work the bet. You can keep one of the jars in your bathroom, but you should store the rest in the fridge so that they last longer. Use the cream morning and evening within 3 to 4 months.


Place your phone components in a 1–2  qt (0.95–1.89 L) sized container. Pour at least 4 cups (340 grams) of drying agent over your phone. Leave the phone in the container to dry for 2–3 days. Reassemble your phone and try turning it on.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you’re going to cover your phone with a drying agent, you’ll need quite a bit of the substance. So, look in your cabinets and pull out a large empty pitcher, a big mixing bowl, or a large saucepan. Set all of the disassembled components of your phone into the bottom. You can leave out the phone plastic back cover. This isn’t crucial to the phone’s function and will air dry. Don’t be stingy with whatever drying agent you chose. You’ll need a substantial amount of it to pull the last remnants of water out of your phone’s electrical components. Put a lid over the container if you’re using an inedible drying agent like silica gel. It takes time for your phone to dry out to the point that it’s usable again. Let it sit in the drying agent for at least 48 hours. If you pull the phone out prematurely, you’ll end up reassembling it with water still lodged inside. If you need to use your phone during this time, you could ask a friend if you can briefly borrow their phone. Or, communicate through email and social media instead of texts and phone calls. Once 48-72 hours have passed, reach into the drying agent and pull out your phone. Shake off pieces of the drying agent, and put the battery, SIM card, and SD card back into your phone. Then, push the “power” button to turn your phone back on. If the phone won’t turn on after you’ve dried it—or if it turns on but barely works or the screen has been damaged—you’ll need to take it to a professional phone-repair company.


Place your reference page at the end of your paper. Format each reference according to the appropriate style guide. Alphabetize your reference page by the authors' last names. Make sure to include every resource you used in your paper.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Your reference page comes at the end of your paper, usually before any appendices or glossaries. Place the reference page on a new page directly after the end of your paper. Begin inputting your resources according to the standard required by your school.  For instance, you may be required to use American Psychological Association style (APA), the Modern Language Association's guidelines (MLA), Chicago style, or American Sociological Association style (ASA). You'll find examples of each of these styles in the section below. Each will have you create slightly different references, though you will use the same basic information. Once you have typed up all of the references, organize them according to the authors' last names. If a source doesn't have an author, use the first part of the title to alphabetize it. When you have multiple works by the same author, you can also use the title to decide which reference comes first in an alphabetized list. A reference page is a compilation of all of your cited sources. Forgetting to provide a reference for a source you cited in your paper could leave you open to charges of plagiarism, even if it was accidental.


Place your steaks on a countertop or on a cool stovetop to allow them to come to room temperature. Coat both sides of the steak with with a liberal amount of salt and pepper. Know that the type of grill you have will slightly change the flavor of your steaks.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Keep them covered or inside their packaging until you are ready to cook them. When the steak is at room temperature, it can quickly get to high-heat on the grill. Leave it cold and the centers will take too long to cook. This will help you to create a crisper crust on the outside of your steak. Think of the salt as a light snow on a dark road -- you can still see the steak, but there is a light dusting on the entire piece of meat. Use the biggest grains of salt you can, such as course or kosher salt. Bigger grains dissolve slower, leading to a better crust on your steak. Depending on your grill, you can get very different flavors from your steak:   Propane (Sear Burner): Gas grills don't give much flavor to the meat, but they are easy to adjust and toy with to get the perfect heat. They also get hot much, much faster than other grills.  Charcoal: The classic choice, charcoal briquettes light up and get hot faster than woodchips. They give the classic rich, smoky flavor to the steaks.  Wood-fire: Hickory or oak chips often give the best flavor to the meat. The trade-off? They are harder to light and keep ablaze. You can also use a mixture of charcoal and wood instead of just wood-chips.


Place your sundial on a flat, horizontal surface. Make sure your sundial will be in direct sunlight all day. Point the gnomon north if you’re in the northern hemisphere. Face the gnomon south if you’re in the southern hemisphere. Use a vertical sundial if you’re at the equator.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

A sundial will only work correctly when it’s on a perfectly flat surface, like the ground, a stand, or a table. Place yours down in a safe spot where it won’t get knocked down or moved. This may seem obvious, but it’s crucial! If you want to be able to read your sundial from dawn to dusk, keep it out in an open, unshaded area where sunlight can reach it for as long as possible. You may notice that some sundials show only 12-hour measurements, since they won’t work for the hours that the sun is down. Use a compass or look for the North Star at night to find true north. Then, rotate the face of your sundial until the gnomon, or the pin of the sundial, is pointing straight north. The 12:00 noon notation is aligned with the gnomon, so it will be pointing north as well. If you live below the equator, you’ll need to point the gnomon of your sundial towards the south, rather than the north. You can use a compass or look for the Southern Cross constellation to find true south and adjust your sundial accordingly. To find the Southern Cross, look for 4 stars shaped like a small kite. The farther south you are, the higher it will be in the sky. The angle of the sun makes it very difficult to use a traditional horizontal sundial along the equator. Instead, use a vertical sundial and follow the packaging instructions to set it up and point the gnomon correctly. At the equator, the sun rises along the eastern horizon and moves straight up, then sets on the western horizon. If you used a horizontal sundial, the shadow would fall mostly west in the morning and mostly east in the afternoon, instead of rotating slowly.


Place your toes inside of toe separators so it’s easy to paint them. Let your nails dry completely before removing the toe separators.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Toe separators are pieces of plastic or foam that fit in between each of your toes. They space out your toes, so your polish will not spread as you paint them. Since you can see all of your toenail, it is easier to apply nail polish. If you take off the separators before your nails dry, your polish may get smeared or wind up on your other toes. To prevent this, wait 1-3 minutes for your polish to dry. To check if your polish is dry, gently touch the corner of 1 nail with the tip of your finger.


Place your trust in friends. Plan nights out on the town. Accept invitations. Join hobby-focused clubs. Take classes to learn something new. Volunteer your time.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

After you’ve been hurt by those close to you it is important to recognize that other people out there do have positive, good traits. Take a moment and think about times that people have been there for you. Maybe write these down and revisit them to start to restore trust in people. Then, look for friends who share your common interests and who will support you in achieving your life goals.  It is okay to tell your friends, after you get to know them a bit, that you are wary about trusting people. And, if your friends or significant other ask to meet your relatives you might just say, “I’m not sure if that is a good idea and when we have more time I will tell you why.” If you live at home with family, make plans to meet your friends elsewhere. This will keep some distance between the two groups as well. Or, you can always just chat with your friends online and blow off some steam that way too. Go have fun doing new activities as a group. These experiences will bond you all together and will give you more things to talk about in your down time. If your friends are busy, feel free to go out to dinner or a movie yourself. Enjoying one’s own company is important as well.  If you came from a large family and are used to being surrounded by people it may be a good idea to force yourself to do some activities solo. This will build your confidence and demonstrate that you can handle almost anything on your own. Plan some one-on-one or small-group activities as well, such as meeting a friend for coffee or going for a walk together. These activities are quieter and more focused on conversation. This can help build and strengthen relationships by promoting sharing and helping you assess if this is someone you can trust. If a friend asks you to do an activity or take a class with them, just say yes. Showing that you are available for the good times will make them more likely to confide in you when situations are difficult as well. Also, saying yes will help you stay on their radar as someone to call when they want to hang...


Place your tweezers over the rounded part of the hair. Rotate your tweezers back and forth until the end of the hair comes out. Pluck out the hair once the end emerges from under your skin. Wash the area with soap and warm water to clean it. Apply an antibiotic cream to the area to help it heal. Change your shaving routine to reduce the risk of another ingrown hair.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Your hair should look like a loop or like it’s growing to the side. Since it’s hard to see which end is the top of the hair, always pull on the middle area of the hair until the end surfaces. Grasp the hair with your tweezers, then gently tug the hair to the right. Next, twist the hair to the left. Keep rotating the tweezers until the end comes out.  If you pull the hair directly up, it will hurt a lot when the hair comes out. It’s better to work the end of the hair out and then pluck the hair. Make sure you’re not digging the ends of your tweezers into your skin. After you’ve dislodged the end of your hair, you can remove it with your tweezers. Place the tweezers near the base of the hair, then quickly pull out the hair.  At this point, your ingrown hair will be gone. Pulling out the hair will likely cause a little discomfort. However, it shouldn’t be very painful. Wet the area with warm water, then massage soap into it. Next, wash away the soap with warm, running water. This will make sure dirt and bacteria don’t get into the empty hair follicle. Pat your skin dry with a clean towel or let it air dry. Use your finger or a cotton swab to dab antibiotic cream over the empty hair follicle. This will prevent an infection and speed up the healing process. Additionally, using the antibiotic cream may also help prevent scarring. Trim your hair short with scissors before shaving. Then, soak in a hot shower, bath, or with a warm compress for 5-10 minutes before shaving. Use a gentle unscented shaving cream and shave in the same direction as your hair grows.  Moisturize and wear cotton underwear afterwards to reduce chafing. Consider using electric clippers, which can get hairs shorter instead of totally shaving them off. Consider laser hair removal from a dermatologist to permanently remove hair if you frequently get ingrown hairs.


Place your vision board where you will see it every day. View your board regularly. Don't be taken in by false promises of what a vision board can guarantee. Use your dream board to visualize the process, not just the result.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Your goal in creating this vision board is to create a visual reminder of what you are hoping to accomplish and to be able to view it regularly in order to maintain your focus and motivation. Don't hide your vision board in a back closet!  You may prefer that your vision board be a private source of inspiration, which is fine. If this is the case, don't feel as though you must hang your vision board in your living room. Similarly, if you are using an electronic vision board, you don't need to make it public. Most webpages and/or blogs can be set to private, or you can limit the people who can view your work. The point is that your vision board should be accessible to you, and shouldn't be placed where you'll fall out of the habit of looking at it. Commit to viewing—really viewing, not just glancing at—your vision board at least once a day. Commit to spending at least five minutes studying the contents and focusing on the images. Don't just read the inspirational sayings and affirmations silently to yourself: repeat them out-loud and with conviction. It's one thing to silently say to yourself “I will become a successful designer,” but it's yet another thing to hear yourself say that with confidence. If you don't believe in yourself, who will? Creating a vision board can be a good way for you to find inspiration, identify and shape your dreams, and keep you focused and motivated. If, however, you are thinking about this project because you've heard promises that making a vision board in the “right” way, and changing your thinking in the “right” way will guarantee that the universe will deliver what you want—think twice.  There's absolutely no scientific evidence that creating a vision board and visualizing your success at achieving your goals will cause the universe to deliver.  While you shouldn't give up your dreams before you start, understand that life throws roadblocks at us, and that sometimes, try as we might, we simply won't be able to achieve everything that we desire. If you go into this project...


Place your zoodles in a microwave-safe dish. Pop the zoodles in your microwave. Cook the noodles for 1 minute. Remove the bowl and test the noodles for crispness. Toss the zoodles and heat them for another 30 seconds, if needed. Cook them in 30 seconds increments until you get the consistency you want. Plate the noodles and serve with your favorite sauce.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

A large glass bowl works best, so you can easily toss the zoodles in between increments in the microwave. Avoid placing them in a shallow dish, since this could easily get messy. Go with something roomy that has sides. You can add a splash of water over the zoodles, if you like, but it’s usually not necessary. Zucchini has a relatively high water content naturally. Leave the bowl uncovered. Place the dish directly in the center of your microwave so the zoodles cook evenly. Once the dish is positioned, close the microwave’s door. Punch in a cook time of 1 minute on your microwave’s keypad. Leave it on regular heat – don’t microwave the zoodles with the high heat setting. Hit “Start” or “Cook” and let the microwave cook the zoodles. Crispness is a personal choice – some people prefer zoodles that have a firm consistency, similar to al dente pasta noodles. Others prefer soft zoodles. To test yours, simply grab a zoodle and pop it in your mouth. If the zoodles are too firm for you, toss them in the bowl with 2 forks to redistribute them. Then, place the bowl back in the microwave. Close the microwave’s door and cook them for another 30 seconds. After 30 seconds is up, check the firmness of the zoodles again. If needed, toss them and heat them in 30 second increments until you’ve reached the desired consistency. If you’re microwaving a large pile of zoodles, you may need to repeat this several times. Be careful not to over-cook the zoodles. Divide the noodles between the serving plates. Ladle your favorite pre-heated sauce over the top. Add cheese or nutritional yeast, if desired, and serve immediately.  If you like spicy foods, consider sprinkling red pepper flakes on top before serving.  Choose a sauce that’s nice and thick. Zoodles tend to get watery easily once they’re plated, and a runny sauce will contribute to that.


Place yourself on vocal rest. Warm your voice up. Cool your voice down.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

It might seem counterproductive since a lot of emphasis is placed on warming up your vocals as much as possible before performances, but resting your voice is actually very important. Save conversation and excessive singing for after a performance to prepare your voice properly.  Although vocal rest can be done before performances to rest the voice and remedy vocals that have been over-practiced, vocal rest is also useful after performances as well.  Put yourself on vocal rest at least one full day per week, especially if you perform regularly and/or sing aggressively. Warming up your voice not only acts as vocal prep, but also acts as a vocal preserver as well. Do a couple scales so your voice will be able to handle the singing to come.  Warm ups should gradually build in intensity. Start gently and build slowly to volumes, efforts, and ranges of higher intensity.  When the voice is warmed up, start with less vocally challenging songs to sing. That way you give your voice time to continue to warm up and stretch before moving on to more vocally demanding material. Just like warm ups are crucial to preserve the vocal cords before singing and performing, cooling down your voice afterwards is equally important. Cool down by doing gentle voice sounds and sighs to relax and de-stress your voice post-performance.


Plan a casual friend date together. Make time for a fancy friend date. Make a trip to see one of your favorite bands or artists live. Plan a trip together. Learn something new together. Challenge each other to do something scary.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Check out the new local coffee shop or your favorite restaurant to catching up. You could spend a few minutes together in between classes together or end up talking for hours on end with your favorite hotpot. Quality time doesn’t have to be a large amount of time as long as you both are enjoying hanging out together. Even if neither of you are single or if you both are, having girl time and dressing up can be a fun and different activity. Go all out with your primping, makeup, outfit and accessories. You can celebrate a birthday or big work accomplishment, or dress up for no other reason than to have fun.  Choose a swanky restaurant or event like a gala or fundraiser to attend so that you make the most of dressing up. Decide beforehand how you’re going to pay. If you choose an expensive venue Road trip together to go to an outdoor concert festival for a weekend or pop into a bar in town to see a local band play while you get drinks. Going crazy at concerts is more fun with a friend. Make a glittery sign to hold, sing at the top of your lungs, and dance like there’s just you, the band, and your best friend. Road trips mean you get to spend one-on-one time with your best friend and pick out a killer music playlist for the drive. Or if you’re in a long-distance friendship, you can plan to meet up halfway in a city you’ve both never been to. Vacations can be difficult to coordinate with school or jobs. To maximize your limited free time, plan shorter day trips or excursions than an entire week or month. On a road trip, budget time for stopping along your trip to take pictures or try the “World’s Best Pie” at the diner next to the gas station where you stop on the way. If you lack the time or money to take a short weekend road-trip, plan long-term instead. Plan a future excursion and fantasize over your dream vacation to Europe together while you wait for it to come. Venturing out into unknown territory can be daunting. Take your best friend along to a yoga class and you might find out you’re really good, or you...
