INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Unfold the cardboard box and lay it flat. Peel off any tape holding the flaps in place. Then, remove the flaps so your hamster has plenty of space to move through the container. Make the toy out of plain cardboard. Avoid using tissue boxes or other types of cardboard with ink, since ink can be harmful to your hamster if it is chewed and swallowed. If you make the toy out of a big cardboard box, cut it to size with scissors or a utility knife. Choose a good spot for the toy, then use a tape measure to determine how much space you have available. Mark these measurements on the cardboard before cutting it. To reduce the amount of measuring and cutting you need to do, use smaller boxes like tissue boxes. Save bigger boxes for toys left out of a cage, such as those placed inside a playpen. Another way to make use of a bigger box is to cut it into panels. Trim the panels so they're all the same size, then stack them and glue them together to create a box-shaped house. The glue will begin curing within a couple of hours. Wait for it to completely solidify so the decorations don't fall off when your hamster starts climbing on its new toy. Waiting is important, especially if you used a hot glue gun.

SUMMARY: Trim the flaps off a cardboard box with scissors or a utility knife. Measure and trim the box if needed to fit it in a cage. Leave the glue for 24 hours to dry if you used any.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: One common myth claims you need to eat 6+ meals a day to encourage glycogen storage, or replenish amino acids, or prevent catabolism. A thorough look at the evidence demolishes these ideas. What matters is the amount of calories and nutrients you consume, not how you spread it throughout the day. If you feel better and work out harder on 3-4 larger meals a day, go for it. Many bodybuilders overstate the importance of breakfast. In fact, eating in the morning has no extra effect on muscle mass compared to eating at other times. You should eat a healthy, protein-rich breakfast, but choose your portion size and mealtimes based on what makes you alert and ready to work out.

SUMMARY: Choose your meal schedule based on what works for you. Treat breakfast just as you would any meal.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If they are constantly staring at you, or in your direction, it may be because they have a crush on you. Try to pay attention to the difference between a normal stare when having a conversation versus a more intense, lustful glare. A lot of eye contact is one way they will try to gain your interest and get you to notice them. When you catch them looking at you, see if they pretend to look somewhere else. This is a good sign they have a crush. Try standing out of their sight to see if they move in a way where they can see you again. For example, if you two are talking in a group of people, stand behind someone so they can't see you. Then, watch to see if they position themself in a new spot that allows them to see you. If they try to stand close to you at parties, or sits next to you at lunch, chances are they have a major crush on you. This is their way of getting as physically close to you as they can to express how they care and enjoys being near you. People express their emotions with their body language, and that includes hands. Girls are known to flip their hair or gently touch the shoulder or hand of the person they are crushing on. Guys tend to talk more with their hands when talking to girls they have a crush on because they are excited. If they blush around you, laugh uncontrollably for almost no reason, can't look you in the eye, or fidgets a lot, then you have your answer. These are all tell-tale signs of someone who is crushing. A common sign of attraction can be shown through imitation. When people do this, they do not even realize it. Watch for someone using common words or catch phrases you say or talking about things you are interested in to relate with you more.

SUMMARY: Take note of heavy eye contact. See how close they get to you. Look at their hand gestures. Pay attention to awkward behavior. See if they mirror your behavior.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: A plain white-cotton blouse is an essential piece to a modern vintage wardrobe. It is basic enough to be dressed up or dressed down, depending on your mood and environment. Conversely, blouses with loud prints make great vintage statement pieces, but only if you have enough plain modern clothing to tone the prints down. Layer simple white vintage blouses with colorful modern cardigans, or take that bold vintage print and tone it down with a solid-colored jacket. High-waist bottoms add a vintage signature to any outfit. The cut is often very flattering on any body type because it elongates the hips and waist, and can be paired with just about any modern or vintage top. Pair high-waist shorts or pants with a simple white collared blouse to create an effortless day-look. When picking out dresses and skirts, try and find ones that will fall around your ankle or calf, and that sit high on your waist. This style was very popular in the 1940s and 1950s, and will be easy to dress up or dress down with modern accessories. Swing skirts can easily be paired with a printed T-shirt, and shirt-waist dresses look great when layered with a modern cardigan or leather jacket. Many modern shoes have little vintage-inspired accents. Heels with rounded toes and shoes with white laces are reminiscent of vintage looks. Putting on a pair of these, or even leather loafers, will add both modern and vintage touches to an outfit. Colorful heels with a rounded toe can easily modernize a vintage dress or skirt. Pair it with accessories that match the heels to further tie together the look. Strap on some sandals with your high-waist shorts and a printed T-shirt for a great summertime look. Pearls and golden or rustic-looking lockets are great vintage accessories to have. Most likely, however, you are going to need more modern accessories than vintage to help bring modern accents into an outfit. Your modern jewelry should help accentuate a specific color within the vintage piece you are wearing. Edgy geometric necklaces, earrings, or bracelets will add modern touches to any vintage outfit.

SUMMARY:
Gravitate toward plain white or colorful printed blouses. Choose high-waist pants and shorts over low-rise bottoms. Look for high-waist swing skirts and shirt-waist dresses for a more feminine feel. Slip on heels with rounded toes or basic laced shoes. Get a mixture of vintage and modern jewelry.
