Summarize the following:
Machine wash your garment if the label contains a symbol of a three-sided container with wavy lines on top. Think of this symbol as your washing machine filled with water to help you remember what it means. You can machine wash as normal, without any special considerations. If this symbol has one line under it, use the permanent press wash cycle. If this symbol has two lines under it, use the gentle wash cycle. If this symbol contains one dot, wash it in cold water. If this symbol contains two dots, wash it in warm water. If this symbol contains three dots, wash it in hot water. If this symbol contains a number, wash it in water the temperature (in degrees Celsius) of that number (e.g., if the number is 30, wash the garment in water with a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, or 86 degrees Fahrenheit). You should hand wash your garment if the label contains a washing symbol with a hand in it. You should not put items with this symbol in the washing machine, as the fabric may be too delicate. Generally, you should not hand wash items at a temperature higher than 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit). Do not wash your garment if it contains the washing symbol with an X through it. This goes for both machine washing and hand washing. Instead, take the garment to the dry cleaner to ensure the fabric is cleaned appropriately.

summary: Identify when to machine wash your clothes. Identify when to hand wash your garment. Identify when a garment cannot be washed.

Put the dress on, then bring the straps up to your shoulders. Twist each strap once right below the front of your shoulders. Make the sleeve as wide as you'd like, and then cross the straps in the back. Bring the straps back to the front you should still have one strap on each side of you and then wrap them around your waist so that the straps are in the back again. Tie the straps in a knot or bow behind you. After you've stepped into the dress, pull the straps up to your shoulders as you would for a normal cap sleeve. Form a knot right below your collarbone in each strap. Spread the fabric out over your shoulders to create the sleeve. Cross the straps in the back and then bring them around to your front. Tie the straps in a bow in the front, or bring them around to the back and tie them. With the dress on, pull each strap onto your shoulders. Create a cross with the straps in the back before pulling them back to the front. Wrap the straps around your waist twice completely. Tie a knot or bow in the front or back of the dress. If you feel like your straps are too long to work with, wrap them around your waist however many times it takes to make them into an appropriate length before tying them.

summary: Create a dress with a cap sleeve. Add a knot to your cap sleeve for a more detailed look. Wear your dress with short sleeves to cover your shoulders.

Because your partner is going to be gone much of the time, you need to develop your own interests and sense of self. Of course, that's a good idea in any relationship, but it's especially good when you need to fend for yourself for months on end. Make sure to develop a social network outside of your partner, as well as your own hobbies and interests. For instance, try joining local hobby clubs that interest you or taking classes at a nearby community college. It's important to develop your own life because otherwise, you may end up very unhappy in the relationship, as the band will draw your partner away a good amount of time. If you're unhappy, the relationship isn't going to last. If your partner is in a band, he or she may be moderately or even really famous. That means that you may have other people trying to cut into your time with them. You may also find that people are trying to get into bed with your partner. It can be a difficult part of the lifestyle to deal with for you, but it's part of being in a band. Therefore, if you want to stay with your current partner, you have to decide to deal with this aspect of the relationship. If people are constantly interrupting your time while you're trying to have a date, it may be time to take it somewhere private so you can actually spend time with each other. In addition, you probably worry about your partner cheating on you, especially if he or she goes on tour, but it really comes down to whether you trust the person or not. If your partner has the integrity not to cheat on you at home, he or she won't do it on the road, either. Being a band is a lot of work, and everyone around can be dragged in, including you. You need to know exactly what you're willing to do and lay that out clearly to your partner. For instance, you may be willing to help with setup, but you may not be willing to host the band every other night for a giant party. You know you need enough sleep to feel good and be healthy. When you live someone who lives a bit of an alternative lifestyle, it may be more difficult to get the number of hours you need. However, getting enough sleep is important to relationship success because it helps you maintain self-control, which is essential for healthy relationships. Plus, it makes you happier overall, which in turn, contributes to the relationship. Eating a healthy diet is an important part of taking care yourself and being present in a relationship. When your partner is often away, it can be harder to motivate yourself to cook and eat healthily. However, studies have shown that when you don't eat enough, for instance, it can make you angry and more aggressive in relationships.
summary: Be an independent person. Learn to not take things personally. Set boundaries. Get enough sleep. Feed yourself well.
