Problem: Article: Before you go out dancing, choose the right outfit. You want to wear something that accentuates your best features but doesn't make you uncomfortable. Choose a favorite outfit or something your feel comfortable in. You don't want to be worrying about your clothes while you are dancing. Try something tight or slightly shorter than you normally go for, but only if you are comfortable. Remember, you can be sexy in a crop top and shorts, but you can also be sexy in sweatpants and a hoodie. Wear black if you have a fashion block. It will make you feel put together and suave and will ease your self-consciousness. You can dress it up with statement jewelry and bright shoes. Statement jewelry, such as large hoop earrings or a blingy necklace can take a simple outfit to the next level. They will also catch the lighting and sparkle as you dance. When it comes to shoes, however, be sure to wear something that you can dance in. High heels can look sexy, but if you don't feel comfortable in them, or if you have trouble dancing in them, stick with flats. If you're male, switch up your shoes. Instead of dress shoes, wear sneakers like Vans or Converse. They'll be more comfortable and give you a casual, fun look. You want to look flawless and put together on your night out. As you are getting ready, allot more time than usual to take a shower and clean up. Trim any facial hair. Shave and moisturize, if you want. Brush your hair, and style it. Keep it in place with some hair spray. Put on a splash of your favorite cologne or perfume. If you normally wear makeup, try a smoky eye or add a bold color to your lips. Having a bit of fun before you go dancing can help put you in the right mindset. Listen to upbeat music that you love, and move while you get ready, even if it's just dancing from your chair while you do your hair. If you're of legal age, have a drink. A drink or two before you go out can give you that little extra confidence boost you need to just let go and have fun. Spend some time with friends beforehand, or go to the dance with them. Your friends can help set you at ease.
Summary: Pick comfortable, sexy clothes. Dress up your outfit with shoes and accessories. Take time to groom. Try to relax.

Problem: Article: This is the line where the bottom of the upper lip meets the top of the lower lip. The shape of this line is a little different on everyone, and it depends on what facial expression is being made. Generally, for a resting facial expression, this line has a slight upward curve on each side and a dip in the middle. Make the dip about the same length as the upward curving lines on the ends. Make the length of this line as wide as you want the lips to be.
Summary: Draw the line where both lips meet.

Problem: Article: If your parents aren't vegetarian, you need to talk to them first. Start by explaining why you want to be vegetarian. They may be resistant at first, but explaining your reasons can be helpful. If they continue to be resistant, focus on the health benefits of vegetarian eating and avoid pressuring them to agree with your beliefs. Pick a good time to talk (when your parents aren't busy). You could say, "Mom and Dad, I've decided I'd like to become a vegetarian. I don't like the idea of eating animals. I think it is mean, and I can't bring myself to do it anymore. Can you help me make this change?" Offer to help prepare your own meals at times. That way, you won't be making extra work for your parents. Don't make your parents feel bad about eating meat. Ask your parents if you can talk to your doctor or if they'll do it for you. Your doctor may want to make a few suggestions. For example, they may want you to get on a multivitamin or a few vitamin supplements to make sure you're getting the right vitamins. If you have a health condition, the doctor might have a few suggestions for your diet, too. A dietician is just someone who studies food and diets. They're good people to talk to when you're trying to become a vegetarian. They'll help you figure out what you need to eat. That way, your body will get the nutrients it needs. It's also a good idea for your parents to be there. They'll be buying the food. You can find kid-friendly recipes for vegetarians. Try looking online for recipes. You can also check out cookbooks from your library. You'll probably need to try some different dishes before finding things you like. Often, meat products can sneak into your food. Restaurants use chicken broth in some foods that may seem vegetarian. It's best to ask if you're not sure. Also, ask your parents to help you read labels. Animal products like rennet, animal fat, and gelatin can be added to products. Some foods will be labelled vegetarian or vegan, making it easier.
Summary: Talk to your parents. Have a talk with your doctor. Ask if you can visit a dietician with your parents. Find recipes you like. Know what's in your food.

Problem: Article: Depending on the number of family members and guests, you may need more than one. Ask your friends to bring their tents if needed. If you are new to camping, follow the instructions to assemble a tent. Use a good quality tent; this isn't the time for the beach shade. It must be a tent you'd really camp in, to protect you from the rain, bugs, and wind. Put something soft on the floor to lie on: camping cots, a blow-up air mattress, yoga mats, a thick comforter, or even couch cushions work well. Add pillows and lightweight sleeping bags or cotton blankets for summer warmth, especially if you live where the night temperatures dip considerably. Add soft toys or stuffed animals for the kids. Put a few flashlights, lanterns, or glow sticks in each tent as well. You can also set out decks of cards or board games in case it gets chilly. If you have a picnic table or a patio set, that would work best. Otherwise, set up a few lawn chairs and a small table to set out drinks and food. A low-maintenance option is to lay out a blanket in the sun, so that your friends can relax, eat, and chat. Be sure the grass isn't wet! Before laying out the seating area, do a sweep for doggy do-do, ant hills, prickles, or other irritants and nasties that might spoil the experience. Mosquito bites will surely put a damper on the fun, so be sure to get plenty of bug repellant for you and your guests. You could also use a bug zapper or light citronella candles or tiki torches filled with citronella to keep pesky bugs away. Ensure your children know not to touch or play with bug zappers, citronella candles, or tiki torches. Even bug spray can be dangerous if ingested or sprayed in the eyes. Make sure an adult supervises or applies the products for children. You could prepare something ahead of time, or even order out. Pizza is a good option, if you are with a large group of people. Have a few bags of chips, or other snack items set out, as well as a cooler full of ice with a variety of drinks. For hot summer afternoons consider making homemade treats, including: Pizza Hot dogs Fries Popcorn Lemonade Chocolate chip cookies
Summary:
Set up your tent(s). Prepare your bedding. Fill the tent(s). Arrange a seating area. Bring out the bug spray. Set out food and drinks.
