Article: No, bedtimes aren't just for little kids. Great morning routines begin with your sleep schedule. Going to bed at a regular time can help you find a healthy sleep pattern. As a teenager, your natural circadian rhythm shifts. A healthy bedtime is around 10 or 11 at night. Try to schedule your homework around your extra curricular activities during the week so you aren't struggling to finish it at the last minute each night. Staring at the blue light from devices like your phone or laptop screen before you go to bed can disrupt your sleep as it sends a message to the brain that it is still day. If you want to use the devices lower their brightness to the minimum level. Try to turn your devices off at least an hour before you go to bed. Read a book to wind down, instead. If you just can't give up using your technology before bed, try a free application like fl.ux, which is designed to soften the light from your screen and adjusts automatically according to the time of day., Eating well can help you feel more rested. Especially try to eat snacks before bed that will help you sleep rather than hinder the process but watch out some foods aren't good to eat before sleep at night: Carbohydrates are heavy foods, like a bowl of healthy cereal, are great before bed because they can increase the level of tryptophan in your blood, which induces sleep. Avoid too much protein right before sleep, as it's harder for your body to digest. Cleaning up your room and bathroom can help you relax and go to sleep more easily. In the morning, your clean environment will make you feel more prepared for the day ahead. If your room is already clean, try tidying it up. For example, wipe the dust off of your belongings or reorganize your bookshelf. Even if it's your phone, plug it in to charge on the opposite side of your room that your bed is on. Force yourself to get up to turn it off and avoid the dangers of the snooze button or if you have trouble waking up just put your phone in a glass cup or mug of any material to amplify the sound than its usual volume.

Article: Place the washed potato into a small bowl. Drizzle it with the oil and use your hand or a pastry brush to spread the oil and coat the skin evenly. The oil will protect the potato from burning, and help the skin to crisp up. The best potatoes for baking in the oven are russets, because they have a thicker skin that will become crispy when baked, and their starchy flesh will become soft and fluffy. Return the potato to the bowl, and season the first side with a pinch each of salt and black pepper, or to taste. Turn the potato over and repeat on the other side. You can season the potato with any herbs or spices you like, such as Cajun seasoning, rosemary, curry, cumin, smoked paprika, or nutmeg. Prick the top and bottom of the potato three or four times to make holes for steam to escape while the potato is cooking. Otherwise, it is possible that steam could build up inside the potato, causing the potato to explode in the oven. Place the potato directly on the wrack in an oven that's been preheated to 425F (218C). You can also cook the potato on a foil-lined baking sheet if you prefer. Bake the potato for 50 to 60 minutes, turning it over every 20 minutes. The potato is done when the skin is dry and a fork can easily be inserted into the tender flesh. For a baked potato with skin that's soft instead of crispy, wrap the potato in aluminum foil before baking it in the oven. Aluminum-wrapped potatoes will cook faster, and could be done in 30 to 40 minutes. Remove the potato from the oven with tongs, or use an oven mitt to protect your hand. Use a sharp knife to cut a large X in the skin and reveal the flesh inside. You can eat the potato as is, or finish it with your favorite toppings. Popular garnishes for baked potatoes include: Butter Sour cream Bacon Cheese Fresh herbs Chili Steamed vegetables
