When you're active, your body releases endorphins which elevate your mood. The enjoyment you get from the activities will keep you from focusing on the "loss" of the Internet. Eat. You don't need the internet to tell you ratings if the restaurant you just walked past smelled amazing. Play a game. Card games, dominoes, and even board games are great ways to spend time with others. Visit an arcade. Be a pinball wizard, throw a few skee balls, or kill some zombies. Attend a mixer. Hotels and resorts often have happy hours and events for the residents to attend. Instead of holing up in your room with your computer or your phone, giving up the Internet allows you to find out what's around you. You can soak in the local ambiance and connect with your vacation spot. Find museums or landmarks. Many sites offer audio-guided tours that allow you to fully experience the things you see without the need for Google. Find local music. You may decide to try out a dance class or just listen to what the area has to offer. Physical activity gets your blood and adrenaline pumping. Even if you're not an exercise junkie, there are plenty of ways to work out that don't feel like work. In addition to the exercise, you may also be able to learn something about your vacation spot or see something new. Take a walking tour or hike. If you choose to hike, look for a local guide to keep from getting lost. Use your hotel or resort's amenities. Most resorts have a gym, a basketball court, a lap pool, or more. Do some yoga. Hit up a local class around town. Mix exercise with adventure. Try extreme sports like wind surfing, sky-diving, bungee jumping, or whitewater rafting. Sometimes you have to do nothing in order to feel that you're doing something. Allow yourself to slow down and take in your experiences. Go out and enjoy nature. Spending time outside can help to relieve your stress. Enjoy the sights, listen to the sounds, take in the smells, and view the landscapes around you. If you're at a hotel or spa, take advantage of services or amenities that can take your stress away. You could lounge at a pool (remember to use sunscreen and keep hydrated!) or get a massage, a manicure and pedicure, or a facial. You can also meditate. Take time to be alone with yourself. You'll be surprised at how differently you perceive yourself and the world around you after you've been alone with your thoughts. Sleep. Bring a sleep mask and some quiet music to listen to. Read. Immerse yourself in other worlds and let this one slip away.

Summary: Immerse yourself in activities. Learn about the culture. Exercise. Unplug.

Sun damage is a primary cause of aging. It can speed the development of wrinkles, cause inflammation in your skin, induce the development of skin cancer, and spread unsightly and painful burns over your body. The best way to protect against sun damage is to wear sunscreen every day. Apply at least SPF 30 sunscreen to your body and on your face before you apply makeup. Many BB creams, foundations, and concealers contain SPF 15 sunscreen. Consider your complexion carefully. If you have a pale complexion, SPF 15 may not be sufficient to protect your skin, and you should still apply a layer of sunscreen beneath your makeup. Before you apply your foundation or concealer, use a matte primer on clean, moisturized skin. With either a sponge or clean fingers, gently spread the primer over your face. Primer will smooth over lines, and it will keep your makeup looking fresh all day. You can apply your normal foundation and concealer after the primer. One trick for glowing makeup is to mix a small amount of bronzer with your normal foundation or BB cream before application. Pour your foundation on the back of your clean hand and apply a dab of bronzer. Mix with your makeup brush before application. Another way to add some shine to your face without looking greasy is to use a liquid shimmer highlighter. With your ring finger, gently dab the highlighter over the crest of your cheeks and top of your nose. Use a very small amount. Blend into your normal makeup with a powder brush. If left on, makeup can clog your pores and cause outbreaks of acne. It can also make your skin look duller overnight. Remove your makeup every night, either with a makeup remover wipe, cream, or cleanser. After you wipe off your makeup, wash your face.

Summary: Use sunscreen every day. Use primer. Mix bronzer and foundation. Use a shimmer highlighter. Remove makeup before you go to bed.

To make wooden gears, you should have access to a wood work studio. You'll need access to a band saw or jigsaw, an awl, brad point drill bits (5/16 or 8mm), and a wood rasp. You'll also need access to a printer, a smooth shank, and short wood screws. You'll need to use Baltic birch plywood because it is very durable. You'll recognize this type of plywood based on the several layers within the wood. You could alternatively use UHMW plastic, Masonite, or phenolic resin material. Avoid using spruce or fir plywood because it is simply not strong enough. When handling this type of equipment it may be wise to use some safety precautions. First, never allow a young child to operate any large machinery unsupervised. Though it is not required, wear safety glasses while operating the larger machines. There's a chance of a small scrap of wood to pierce your eye. Go online to a free wood generator like https://woodgears.ca/gear_cutting/template.html for your template. A generator like this allows you to modify all the aspects like tooth spacing, number of teeth, number of spokes and more. When you've created the right sized gears, print them off. Templates generally have two different sized gears. The template will allow you to make size adjustments without messing up the gear ratio. The template is designed to adjust both large and small gears together. The teeth will be the same size for both sized gears to ensure a smooth rotation. Generators like this even let you animate your design to test how it works. There are more sophisticated gear templates that are available for download as well. You can also create your own template using paper, pencil, and a protractor.

Summary: Receive access to a workshop. Gather the right plywood. Use safety supplies. Obtain a template.

Firmly sit on the canvas between the first and second sets of legs, then slide down the cot and firmly sit between the second and third sets. If you have never put the cot together before, the canvas will be difficult to maneuver. Sitting on the canvas stretches it out. It is recommended that you do this before finishing the frame to make the remaining part of the procedure easier. Note that you should be careful while doing this, however, since the cot can collapse at this point if too much weight is applied. Walk around the perimeter of the cot while firmly pressing into the canvas with closed fists. Press down across the entire perimeter of the canvas. Punch the canvas down the entire lengthwise center, as well. You can do this instead of or in addition to sitting on the canvas. Either way, this action should help stretch the material and make it easier to maneuver.
Summary: Sit on the canvas. Punch the canvas down.
