Problem: Article: Pretend to cry if you don't mind the indignity. If the teacher asks you what's wrong, tell him/her you fell and hit your head. Ask if you can take it easy because it's really hurting you.
Summary: Get an ice pack and put it in your locker beforehand. In the class before the one you want to skip, pretend to fall and hit your head on a desk/floor/locker/wall and grimace in pain. When you go to your locker, get the ice pack and press it to your head. When you get to the class you don't want to do, put on a realistic look of agony. Make your voice small and whispery, jump at loud noises and most importantly, keep the look of pain.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Threadworms can be transmitted from person-to-person contact with an infected person, as well as from touching objects that may be contaminated with eggs such as a toilet seat, bedding, or other things. Therefore, excellent hygienic measures at home are key to preventing the spread of threadworms to everyone who lives in the household, as well as to supporting a cure for the person who was initially infected. Because eggs are laid around the anal area, it is important to clean the toilet seats at least once a day to avoid contaminating others with threadworm eggs, and also to avoid re-infecting yourself with more eggs. Clean with water and regular household cleaners (no special products are needed). Use gloves when you clean to keep your hands clean. Pay particular attention to washing your hands both before meals and/or food preparation, as well as after using the toilet. This will help to get rid of the threadworms faster by preventing spread of the infection. In order to effectively get rid of threadworms, you need to change and wash your sheets to get rid of any eggs that may be present. It is also important to wash your pyjamas regularly (or whatever you sleep in), as well as the clothes you have been wearing, for the same reason of avoiding re-contaminating yourself with eggs. This will help to clear up the infection faster by removing eggs that will simply continue the lifecycle of the threadworm, making it more challenging for you to regain your health and wellbeing. Because female worms migrate toward the anus and lay eggs there, the anus can become particularly irritated and itchy. People, especially children, may be tempted to scratch around the anus to alleviate the itch. However, this is one of the worst things you can do, because your hands then immediately become contaminated with eggs, which will spread to everything you touch after that. Therefore, to reduce the spread and transmission of threadworm eggs, avoid scratching around the anus. Also avoid applying ointments or creams to the anal area in an effort to soothe it. This may cause the female worms to lay eggs higher up in your rectum or colon, which makes the problem worse not better.

SUMMARY: Understand how threadworms are spread. Wash toilet seats daily. Wash your hands regularly, especially if you are infected. Change your bed sheets at least twice a week. Avoid scratching around the anus.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: This is a really helpful maxim. Look to your own personal vice and revoke the disasters you've created, if at all possible. When people walk away, make sure you've uplifted them in some way. Whether that be making them happy, making them laugh, or giving them assistance, free them and do them a kind act. Avoid making win/lose or lose/lose situations an inevitability. Nobody wants those as the outcome. Be a good source of compromise. This is far more helpful than self-pity, which causes other people to run miles away from you and does nothing to help you dig your way back out of that ditch. Self compassion is about being kind to yourself, respecting that what you're going through is hard but you're never alone in life's adversities and is also about being mindful that you matter and deserve care and a break from self-criticism. That's their job! This doesn't mean you have to succumb to their job description as if it's also yours, because it most distinctly isn't. Your job description is to be self-compassionate, boundary-creating, composed and hopeful. And maybe adventurous too, to travel beyond the negative things you'll inevitable bump into along the way.
Summary: Know when to admit it and quit it. Mentally liberate yourself. Look for win/win situations. Incorporate a good deal of self compassion into your life. Remember that all negative forces want you to be unhappy.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Continue self-care as long as your abscess is healing and doesn't show signs that the infection is getting worse. Look for the following signs the abscess and infection are getting worse and seek immediate medical attention: Your skin is getting more red or more painful. There are red streaks running from the abscess and surrounding area towards your heart. The abscess and surrounding skin feels very warm or hot to the touch. Significant pus or other fluid is running from the abscess. You have a fever higher than 101.5F (38.6C). You have chills, nausea, vomiting, headache or muscle aches. In some cases, you may need medical attention, such as if you are over the age of 65. Let your doctor know how you've treated the abscess at home and any other information that may help them treat it. See your doctor for medical treatment if: The abscess is on your spine or in the middle of your face, near your eyes or nose. The abscess does not drain on its own. The abscess gets bigger or is very large or painful. You have diabetes or another chronic health problem such as kidney or liver disease. Let your doctor lance and drain your abscess with a scalpel or small needle if necessary. Opening and draining the abscess can remove infectious pus or liquid and relieve pressure. Keep any coverings your doctor places over the lanced abscess clean and dry. Don't try to drain your abscess at home or you could cause the infection to spread. Ask your doctor for a local anesthetic if you have a lot of pain. Your doctor may pack the drained abscess with an antiseptic dressing to absorb extra pus and prevent further infection. Your doctor may also take a sample of the drained fluid and test for antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Get a prescription from your doctor for an antibiotic if the abscess infection is especially severe. Follow dosage instructions your doctor gives and make sure to take the entire course of antibiotics. Taking and finishing an antibiotic can get rid of the infection and may minimize the risk of another abscess or reinfection. If you have a good immune system and your abscess is small or located near the surface of your skin, you most likely won't need antibiotics.
Summary:
Watch for signs of further infection. Schedule an appointment with your doctor. Have the abscess drained. Take a course of topical or oral antibiotics.
