Since you're taking the time to research and draw your family tree, pick out nice drawing materials so that the information is presented well. Art supply stores sell individual sheets of large paper. Choose one that is sturdy and attractive, such as watercolor paper. A more convenient option might be a piece of posterboard. This type of paper is also sold by the individual sheet, and it comes in a variety of colors. You can find it at drugstores. Plan to draw the family tree in pencil and trace over it with a nice ink pen or marker. Some family trees are drawn in the shape of actual trees that have a branch for each "branch" of the family. Others are more like family diagrams; the end effect is tree-like, but the family names aren't actually superimposed on a tree drawing. Use the style that was assigned to you in class or simply choose the one you prefer.

Summary: Choose paper and a drawing utensil. Decide what form your tree will take.

The next time your class has a team project coming up, don't rush to sign up with your BFF. Instead, give him a chance to offer to work together. If he keeps looking at you, give him an encouraging smile so he feels more confident approaching you. If you're feeling really brave, you could even ask him if he wants to work with you. Instead of surrounding yourself on both sides with friends, try to pick a more open area to sit in so that there is some space if he wants to come and sit next to you. This is especially a great idea if you are both in the same friend group and tend to end up in common areas, anyways. It'll be easy for him to move next to you so you can talk. If he does sit next to you, pay attention to how often his body brushes against yours and how interested he is in talking to you. Being in close proximity is a great way to get a better idea of whether or not he is into you. You could say something like, "I was thinking of going to the football game this weekend," or "That new movie is coming out on Friday. I've really been wanting to see it," and see how he responds. If he offers to go with you or suggests getting together to do the activity, he is definitely interested in spending more time with you. Even if you can't hang out one-on-one, he may indicate that he'd like to get a group of friends together to do something fun. This may be a way he can spend more time with you without risking being rejected if he isn't sure of how you feel yet. if he is interested in you. If you feel pretty certain that he likes you and you just have to know, you could definitely have a direct conversation with him. This can be a little risky, especially if you're friends, but it can also give you a lot of clarity. If you can, ask him in person. But, if you just can't bring yourself to do that, you could always send him a text or call him on the phone.

Summary: Give him an opportunity to ask you to partner up for a project. Leave some space open next to you at lunch or the next sporting event. See if he grabs an opportunity to hang out with you outside of school. Ask him directly

Some hair dyes, like Manic Panic, can be applied to the hair directly out of the package. Other dyes may need to be mixed. If you have a bold color and want to make it lighter, you can always add a conditioner to dilute the color. If you want a color that you can't find, you can always create it by mixing two different colored dyes. You can use a brush to paint it on the section, or you can "dip" it into a bowl filled with the dye, spreading it along the section of hair with your gloved hand. Concentrate the majority of the dye on the ends of your hair, making sure the tips are fully saturated. As you bring the dye upwards, use less dye so that it gradually fades into your natural color.Do this all over your head, being careful to dye the same length of sections. You want the color to be even around your entire head. Blending the color into your natural hair is important. Apply the dye thickly to the ends of your hair to create a bold, solid color. When you're nearing the area of hair where the dyed hair will blend into your natural hair, use your finger tips to softly pull some of the dye up the strand, without saturating the hair. This will help the color slowly lighten, and it will help you avoid a stark line between the colored hair and your natural hair. This will heat up your hair and speed up the dying process. It will also prevent you from making a mess as the dye sits on your hair. However, this step is completely optional. Check the color periodically to see if it is bright enough. With many colored dyes, the longer you let it sit, the brighter it will be. Just make sure to check the packaging for directions for your specific product. Remember, some dyes will fade gradually with washes, so if you don't let it sit very long, you will get a paler color that washes out faster. Once you've let the dye sit for the required amount of time, you can rinse it out. Use cold water to remove all traces of the dye, and apply a conditioner to give your hair some moisture and shine. Don't wash with shampoo, because it will be more likely to strip some of the dye out of your hair and lighten it. The less you wash your hair, the longer your dip dye will last! Like shampoos, heat products can cause the color to fade more quickly. When possible, avoid using blow dryers, flat irons, and curling irons. If you do use them, make sure to use a heat protectant. Have fun styling your new dyed hair, experimenting with fun new styles to show it off.
Summary: Mix the dye according to package directions. Apply the dye to your hair. Blend the color. Wrap each dyed section with aluminum foil. Leave the dye on your hair according to the package directions. Rinse out the dye. Style your hair as usual.
