Once you have everything planned out, calculate the cost and begin saving. It is probably best to start planning your trip six to eight months ahead of time. This way you can ensure that you will have enough money saved up for your trip. Make sure to do this if you do not have one. Make photocopies and electronic copies of your passport just in case you lose it. Also email yourself the photocopies. This way you can access them on a computer anywhere. Additionally, make sure to check your travel destination's tourism website to see if you need visas for your trip; for example, you may need a visa if you are traveling for an extended period of time, or if you are traveling from an EU country to a non-EU country. Do this once you have everything planned and the costs calculated. Try to purchase your plane tickets, accommodations, and train tickets (or rental car) a couple months in advance to get the best deals. Ask your bank about their exchange rates and fees. See if they have credit cards available that can help you get around some of these fees while you travel. Make sure to ask about any ATM withdrawal fees as well. Additionally, before you leave, make sure to let your bank know you will be traveling to avoid having your credit cards frozen. Ask your cellphone carrier about their international rates, as well as the type of international plans they have available. If you determine that the rates are too expensive, then look into getting a prepaid phone, like a tracphone. It is always a good idea bring a global map or maps of the countries you will be visiting. This way, if you cannot access the internet to activate your GPS, then you will have a back up. Try to purchase travel guide books that include maps of the countries you will be visiting.

Hand cramps are often caused by overuse. Give your hand time to heal by avoiding activities that require a lot of hand movements or that require you to grip something. For sudden cramps, this may only be a few minutes. If you have more severe cramps, you should go a day or 2 with minimal use of your hand. You may also need to rest your forearm. If your symptoms don't improve, you should see a healthcare provider. If overuse is causing your hand cramps, you're likely doing a repetitive activity. Stopping this activity, even for a short period of time, can help relieve the cramps. Activities that may cause hand cramps include the following: Writing Typing Playing an instrument Gardening Tennis Gripping an object, such as a tool or smartphone Bending your wrist too far Stretching out your fingers Elevating your elbow for a long period of time Hold your hand flat with your fingers touching. Use your other hand to gently press your hand back by pressing against the palms of your finger. Alternatively, place your hand against a flat surface. Press down gently, spreading your fingers flat against the surface. Hold for 30-60 seconds, then release. You can also stretch your hand by balling your hand into a fist. After 30-60 seconds, open your hand and stretch out your fingers. Gently rub your hand using small, circular motions. Pay special attention to areas that are tight or especially sore. You may want to apply massage oil to your hand. Both heat and cold can help relieve your pain. Heat is better for soothing the cramp and loosening up any tightness in the muscles, while cold will relieve swelling. Place a piece of fabric between your skin and the compress for protection. This is more likely to be the cause if you've been exercising, work in the heat, or are taking a medication that acts as a diuretic. Make sure that you are drinking whenever you feel thirsty, to not get dehydrated. Since an electrolyte imbalance may cause hand cramps, you may want to drink a sports drink instead. Hand cramps occur when you lack certain nutrients, such as sodium, calcium, magnesium, or potassium. This is particularly true for people who do intensive workouts, have kidney disease, are pregnant, have an eating disorder, or are undergoing treatment for a condition like cancer. Low B vitamins can also cause muscle cramps. Always talk to your doctor or healthcare provider before taking any vitamins or supplements, especially if you are already taking medications. Your doctor can advise you on which supplements are best for you.

This should only take a few minutes. Some people choose to skip foundation altogether, especially if they're just looking to minimize the appearance of their pores or add brightness to their complexion. Otherwise, you can apply your makeup as normal. Apply a light layer of foundation and build up if you need more. The presence of primer means you will actually end up using less foundation. Your foundation should glide on smoothly and should not settle into creases or wrinkles, as it would without primer. Once you've applied your foundation, you may want to set it with a quick dusting of translucent powder. If your primer and foundation are silicone-based and oil-based, this can help keep your makeup from smudging.

One-sentence summary -- Allow the primer to dry completely.

Make a mental note of each card that is played. This may take some practice, but the more attention you pay to the game, the better your focus will be. Doing this will give you an advantage over the other players. By counting cards, you can learn to predict the moves of other players. While paying attention to the cards, if you notice 1 player using many of the same color, such as green, use a card to throw them off track. You can use a card with the same number but with a different color, for instance. For example, if 1 player plays a green 7, play a blue 7. This changes the suit from green to blue. For example, if you notice 1 player has no yellow cards, keep the suit yellow as long as you can. You can maintain the suit by using yellow cards if you have them. This gets rid of your cards while making them draw additional cards.
