Q: This will be particularly helpful when you first get on the ship, regardless of its size, and it'll help at least a bit of time go by. Smaller ships should have a map with locations of life vests, fire extinguishers, and other safety protocol available. Most cruise lines have a large map including a wide variety of restaurants, activities, and events. Take time to look look at the map provided and learn where everything is in relation to your room. This will help you decide what to do first! There might also be a schedule of events for you to read for the cruise. Pick a few events or shows that seem interesting to you and try to attend them! For smaller ships, you might have to make your own entertainment, but on cruise lines there will likely be a lot provided for you! In addition to shows and concerts, there are plenty of options for entertainment that you can take part in, including karaoke, auctions, carnival games, gambling (if you're of age), and other competitive events. A lot of entertainment events will have awesome prizes. You never know what you might win! On a smaller ship, this is easy as you will likely know many of your shipmates. However, on a cruise there may be formal dinners or designated times for mingling with other passengers. Take the time to get to know them and make new friends. On a cruise ship, there are plenty of places to meet people, including the bar, nightclubs, the pool, live shows, and planned activities. Don't be afraid to reach out and talk to someone new! If you're of legal age on a cruise, a visit to the bars and nightclubs might be a fun activity for your group of friends. Dancing, singing, and getting silly will really help you let loose and relax on your cruise! Always make sure you are being safe and are aware of your surroundings. Use the buddy system by assigning partners to watch out for each other throughout the night. On a cruise, participating in activities all day can really make you work up an appetite. Check out the different dining options on the ship. From buffets to fine dining, take the time to try something new that you can't get anywhere else. Aboard a smaller ship, you can take advantage of local restaurants at a port, or you can practice cooking for yourself and your shipmates. Take the opportunity to visit a new place and have an adventure. Many cruise lines will offer on-land excursions for people on the cruise, so check out their packages and select an activity that interests you. If you're on a smaller ship and have plans to dock at a port, choose a local restaurant or event to attend.
A: Inspect a map of the ship and get your bearings. Participate in and enjoy the entertainment. Socialize with other people aboard the ship. Visit bars and the nightclubs available on a cruise. Eat and drink to your heart's content. Sightsee at each port of call.

Problem: Article: Simple and sophisticated, this drink was famously described by Ernest Hemingway. Quoth the American master: "Pour 1 jigger of absinthe into a champagne glass. Add iced [brut] champagne until it attains the proper opalescent milkiness. Drink three to five of these slowly." The sazerac, created by Antoine Amedee Peychaud in the early 1800s, is one of the oldest known cocktails. Add a little absinthe to this stellar recipe to make it really stand out. Add three dashes of absinthe to a bucket glass nearly filled with ice cubes. In a cocktail shaker with ice, mix vigorously: 2 ounces Osocalis brandy ounce simple syrup 2 dashes Peychaud's bitters. Pour contents of cocktail shaker into bucket glass. Stir lightly and wipe rim with lemon zest before adding it as a garnish. Finished. Place 1/2 lemon vodka in a shot glass. Fill 1/2 with absinthe. Float a slice of lemon on top. Place a sugar cube on top of the lemon. Drip on more absinthe. Light it on fire. Blow out the flame or use the backdraft method of putting your palm over the cup.

Q: You can't be a country singer without being good at singing. Even if you consider yourself or have been told you are a good singer it is important to make sure you have the base singing skills necessary to be a singer. Find your singing range and practice singing regularly. If you have a lot of improvement that needs to be done or you just want to get your voice the best it can be, you might want to consider taking singing lessons. You can also use websites and phone apps to learn to sing. In order to mimic the sound and learn the country style, practice by singing along to country artists you like who are in your vocal range. Women may want to listen to Tammy Wynette, Dolly Parton, Miranda Lambert, Martina McBride, Carrie Underwood, Allison Krauss, Kelsea Ballerini, and Kellie Pickler. Men may want to listen to Hank Williams, Tim McGraw, George Strait, Waylon Jennings, Kenny Chesney, Keith Urban, George Jones, Rodney Atkins, and Toby Keith. Country singers have a specific sound to their voice. Whether you have the country twang naturally or not it is possible to learn to sing with a country style to your voice. First try to put the country twang in your speaking voice. Mimic the country twang of singers, actors, and characters into your speaking. Start singing with the twang by over exaggerating the sound of it. This will get the sound familiar on your voice. Once you have the feel of it down, tone it down. This will help create your country sound and make song writing easier. If you really cannot learn you can have someone play while you sing and be a duo, but knowing how to play guitar is a major part of country singing. The most important chords to learn for country music are G, C, D, and A. Country music is usually a combination of these chords.
A:
Learn to sing. Sing along to country singers. Learn the country twang. Learn to play the guitar.
