Q: To slim your waist and show off your shoulders and hips, turn your body slightly when you take your photo. If you're standing, shift your weight onto one foot to give your torso a more angular posture. Use the arm that isn't taking the shot to frame your figure. Try putting a hand high on your waist to frame your torso, or crook your elbow and put a hand behind your head to show off your upper arm. Bend your knee or cross your legs for a more dynamic position. When taking a lying-down selfie, don't let your face get swallowed up by gravity. Use a pillow, or put a hand behind your head. Take the photo from slightly above your eye level, just as if you were standing. It can be tricky to fit a lot of your body into the frame without distorting your proportions. A mirror lets you take a picture without worrying about that. If you have two mirrors facing one another, you can even take a picture of your back and front at once. Mirror shots look best if the light is next to the mirror, rather than behind you. Try putting a lamp next to your mirror, or keep a mirror by your window. Try shooting from right next to your face or closer to your chest. If you don't want the camera to show, hold it just past the mirror frame.
A: Swivel a bit to the side. Bend your arms and legs. Prop your head up if you're lying down. Pose in the mirror.

Q: The general admission floor is going to be hot and packed with people, so when it comes to dress, choose comfort over style. T-shirts, tank tops, shorts and jeans are safe bets. Even if it's cold outside, the floor itself will be too hot for layers. Leave your coat in the car, and if you must bring a layer, choose a light sweater or flannel that you can tie around your waist. You'll be standing and dancing for hours on end, so you'll want to choose comfortable shoes. Flip-flops, sandals, high heels are bad ideas - your feet will ache, and your toes might get trampled! Instead, opt for sneakers, flats, or any other close-toed, comfortable style. If you typically wear glasses, consider wearing contact lenses for the concert. General admission floors can get rowdy, and you don't want to risk breaking or losing your glasses in the commotion. Regardless of whether the concert is inside or outside, the general admission floor is bound to be hot. Avoid stinking up the floor by applying deodorant before you go to the concert. The concert experience will likely be long and exhausting, so you'll want to fuel up before you face the crowds. Eat a substantial meal with plenty of carbs and protein, and be sure to drink plenty of water as well. A larger bag or backpack might get in the way on a packed general admission floor, so limit your personal items to a small purse, fanny pack, or drawstring backpack. Avoid bringing any valuables that can be lost, broken, or stolen. Be sure to pack your tickets! Some other essential items include your phone, money, keys, and medication. Bring a water bottle, or plan on buying bottles at the concert to stay hydrated. If the concert is outdoors, bring a travel-sized container of sunscreen.
A: Wear comfortable clothing. Do not bring jackets or hoodies to the event. Wear durable, close-toed shoes. Opt for contacts over glasses. Apply deodorant. Eat a meal before the event. Pack a small bag of the essentials.

Q: For the best texture and taste, insist on meat that is organic and/or free of artificial hormones. Specify that you want a raw pork belly that hasn't already been cured or sliced. For a fattier bacon, ask for meat that came from the hog's belly and/or chest. For a meatier bacon, ask for meat that covered the hog's spare ribs. Whole pork bellies typically weigh between 10 and 12 pounds, but if you are experimenting with cure recipes, ask for a smaller cut in case you end up not liking your concoction. If you purchased your pork belly from a commercial vendor other than a farm and plan on curing it as soon as you get home, skip this step, since the meat has already been chilled. But if you buy direct from a farm, ask the farmer how long ago the hog was slaughtered, because you need to chill your meat within 24 hours of that time. In either case, bring along a cooler stocked with ice to keep the pork belly relatively cool on the ride home if it takes you more than half an hour. Once home, place the pork belly in a sealable container to keep your fridge clean and prevent cross-contamination with other items. For a quicker chill, set the container inside the fridge wherever it is coldest. To further reduce the chance of cross-contamination, set it in the meat compartment, away from other products. Keep the refrigerator's temperature at 40 degrees Fahrenheit and let the pork belly sit until its core temperature drops to 42 degrees, which will help kill bacteria. If you are chilling multiple bellies, set each one in its own container rather than stacking the meat directly on top of each other. Either ask your butcher to do it for you when you purchase the meat, or do it at home yourself. In the latter case, use a sharpened knife since the skin is tough. Begin your cut at any corner of the belly. As you slice the skin off, angle the blade toward the skin, rather than away from it, so you don't end up trimming off any more precious meat than necessary. Once your skin is removed, the meat will absorb more of the cure. The discarded skin can be cooked on its own, either by grilling or deep-frying. If you wish to do this, be sure to tell your butcher to save the skin if you have them slice the skin off for you.
A: Buy a fresh pork belly. Chill your meat. Cut the skin off.

Q: Art can help to create a calming and peaceful atmosphere in the room. Stick to art that pleases you, complements the room, and avoids harsh colours which aren't calming. There are many forms of art to explore for decorating a bedroom. Photos, framed posters, prints, and paintings are just a few. You might also choose to display photos of your family, friends, and pets. This can be a comforting addition to your bedroom! If you want to hang several photos or pieces of art, create a gallery wall by clustering them on the same wall. When arranging multiple hanging art pieces on the wall, trace each piece onto paper first. Then you cut out each tracing, label it, and can stick it to the wall to try out every arrangement at ease. An indoor succulent or a vase of fresh flowers will add color, warmth, and life to the room. Plants will also help to add shape and personalisation to a bedroom. For an empty corner or a wasted space, add a small cluster of potted plants of contrasting shapes, colours and sizes. You could also have a wall mounted plant in the bedroom for a unique and warm look. Mirrors help small rooms to look bigger, and for darker rooms to appear brighter. Mirrors are also helpful for getting dressed each morning. To make the most of the morning light, try placing a mirror on the wall adjacent to the window. For capitalizing on the soft, afternoon light, put the mirror on the wall opposite to the window. To include a mirror where there is minimal wall space, try hanging it on the door. Choose a mirror which takes up as much of the door as possible, and use mirror clips to attach it securely. It's best to avoid hanging a mirror over your bed. Not only is it impractical because you can't use the mirror, it's also dangerous, as the mirror is heavy and could fall on you. Too many knick knacks that are poorly organised will make the bedroom look cluttered and difficult to clean. Pick a few pieces which match the color scheme, and display them to stand out so that they don't look hidden in a corner. Display knick knacks on a tray on the dresser for a sophisticated look. This will keep the knick knacks organised and well displayed, and will also provide a place to store jewelry and watches too.
A:
Choose some art to display. Add in an indoor plant for a fresh look. Hang a mirror to open up the space. Include a few knick knacks to add personality to the room.
