Q: Be subtle and natural with the girl you want to hang out with by inviting her to activities you were already planning on doing. If you plan on going to a barbeque, ask her if she wants to hang out there. Enjoy yourself regardless of whether she comes along or not. Say, "Hey, I'm going to this cookout tomorrow if you want to stop by." Say, "A bunch of us are going to try this new restaurant if you want to try it too." You don't need to make lengthy conversations or stumble over words if you see the girl you want to hang out with in public. A simple "Hey" or "Hello" so she knows you notice her is the perfect way to play it cool. Make eye contact and say "Hey", when you pass her or you're in the same room. Open-ended invitations don't tie you to a specific time frame or activity and are a great way see how likely a girl is to accept more specific invitations. Keep it brief and don't overthink it. Then, look at the girl's reaction to see how interested she is in hanging out. Plan the invitation around a group activity, if you're still deciding whether you just want to be friends. Say, "Do you wanna grab lunch sometime?" Say, in a group setting "We should all get together soon." People like to hang out with happy people they perceive as fun, because who wants to hang out and not have fun? Smile when you ask the girl you want to hang out with to do something. Talk about positive things and keep the conversation light.
A: Invite her along to things you plan on doing anyway. Say "Hello" when you see her. Find an open-ended invitation to gauge her interest. Be cheerful when you try to make plans.

Q: Taking just a few moments to "put yourself together" can take your selfie from "good" to "great." Pick an outfit that you think makes you look good. It can be something that goes well with your surroundings (like a flannel lumberjack shirt if you're in the woods) or just a set of clothes you love. Find a mirror and make sure your hair looks good, your teeth are brushed, and your eyes are clear and "awake." Wash or brush yourself as needed. You may want to consider wearing light makeup, but don't feel obligated to use it. You don't necessarily have to wear makeup to take a good photo. Sometimes the most best photos come from a person's natural beauty. If you are taking a profile picture Facebook, a dating website, or something similar, you may want to put more effort into your selfie than normal. You can take a closeup of your face, but having something else in the photo to look at gives the photo depth and variety. It's also nice for making your selfies look different from each other. There are no "right" answers here, but below are just a few ideas: Try shooting both outside and inside. Try shooting against different textures of wall (wood, brick, paint, glass, wallpaper, etc.). Try capturing eye-catching objects like flowers, bodies of water, animals, or statues in the frame. The light sources around you when you take your picture can seriously affect how it turns out. Not enough light can make the photo pixelated and dark, whereas too much light can block out all your features (and even make your nose disappear). Try to strike a good balance: you want just enough lighting to show all the amazing aspects of your face, but not so much that they vanish and leave you looking like a shining mirror. If you're indoors, try not to stand in front of a window with your back facing it, as the light from outside can make you look dark and shadowy. Instead, try standing facing the window instead so any light coming from outside will hit your face and make your features look sharper. Now that you have your lighting situated, it's time to decide what you want your pose to be. There are many options here: you can do the duck face, make a peace sign, or even just show a simple smile! You can face away from the camera or look into the lens. The possibilities are endless. Choose something that feels right and go with it! If you're posting pictures to social media, make sure to vary your poses. You don't want to seem like you only know how to do one thing. If you're using a phone to take your picture and you want to look into the camera, don't forget to point your eyes at the small lens and not at the screen itself. Having a happy, positive attitude will show through in your picture. Taking selfies isn't a big deal, so instead of worrying, have fun with it and don't be afraid to experiment. You can always get rid of bad pictures later. If you're having a hard time getting jazzed up for your photo, get physical! Try taking a few photos while jumping, balancing on one foot, or doing something athletic. Moving around will get your blood flowing and raise your energy levels.
A: Put on good-looking clothes and clean your face. Pick an interesting background. Be aware of your lighting. Choose an interesting pose. Get excited!

Q: You'll need 24 seashells, string or fishing line, a piece of driftwood, a power drill with 1/32 in (0.8 mm) drill bit, and scissors. . Unless you purchased sanitized or fake seashells, they need to be cleaned. Soak your seashells in a large bowl or bucket for several hours in a mixture of 1 part bleach and 3 parts water. If dirt and calcium remain on the shells, scrub them with an old toothbrush. Soak or rinse your shells in warm water and allow them to dry completely. Use the power drill with 1/16 in (1.6 mm) drill bit to drill one hole in each shell. You can place masking tape over the spot before drilling to prevent the shells from breaking. The hole can be placed anywhere on the shell, just keep in mind it will affect the orientation of the hanging shell. Cut your fishing line or thread into pieces. The number of pieces depends on the size of the driftwood. You can cut all the pieces of thread at the same length, or vary the lengths for a more eclectic look. Wrap the thread around the driftwood and tie a double knot to keep it from coming off. Keep in mind you want each piece close enough to its neighbor that the shells will bump into each other. You can hide the string and knots by decorating the top of the driftwood with shells that you hot-glue on. Thread a seashell up the string and tie a knot under it to prevent it from slipping down. Continue until all the strings are filled with seashells. Tie string to each end of the wood and anchor it to the ceiling or hang the strings from a tree branch. Enjoy your seashell creation.
A:
Collect your materials. Wash your seashells Drill holes in the shells. Cut your string. Tie the string to the driftwood. Add shells to the string. Hang your driftwood.
