Problem: Article: Don't choose a camp based on something you don't enjoy like computer programming, if you don't like it. Research different camps based on your interests. There are so many different camps today that vary in a wide array of specialties. A popular camp for young kids is rock camp. This teaches younger children about the history of rock and the rudiments of a rock instrument. Your personal items are items or clothing you own that you cannot live without. This doesn't include forms of electronics. For most camps these days, one aim is to remove yourself from electronics. Personal items are small knick-knacks that hold sentimental value to you like a doll, photograph, or charm. Depending on the duration of your camp, you'll need a variety of clothing options. You should try to stay on the light side of packing. Consider the following for a one week camp, and double the amount for a two week camp: 6 short sleeve shirts 1 long sleeve shirt 4 pairs of shorts 1 swim suit 1 light jacket/sweatshirt 6 pairs of underwear 6 pairs of socks 1 baseball cap 1 pair of sneakers 1 pair of sandals It might be more enjoyable if you bring some additional supplies like a day pack. Instead of bringing electronics for entertainment bring books or comic books. It could also be useful to bring a journal and a pen. All camps offer different services. Look into what your camp recommends you bring. These are to be taken seriously and can be adapted depending on the person. After registering for the camp, you should receive a packet of information either in the mail or through email. Depending on what camp you've chosen, you may be required to bring specific supplies. Check the checklist and information provided by each camp. Camps want you to be prepared and will give you the information of what you should expect well before the camp starts.
Summary: Pick your camp. Gather your personal items. Organize your clothes. Bring additional supplies. Research your camp. Bring specific items.

Problem: Article: If you have curly hair, and go too short, you could end up with hair that has too much poof or looks misshapen. The key to managing curly hair can simply be the right cut. That doesn't mean you shouldn't ever try a short cut. It means you should do it with caution. Get a trim every 6 to 8 weeks. This keeps your cut's shape and will make your curls look their best. Here's why short cuts are risky. The problem is that short hair will increase frizz. So find a great stylist if you try it. Television actress Keri Russell learned this fact the hard way. When she lopped off her curls, controversy followed and ratings dropped. You should be equally cautious with bangs as length. Bangs will also make frizz worse. They're usually not recommended for people with very curly hair.As with any rule though, an extremely experienced stylist could help you break the rules. Brushing curly hair can be a disaster for it. If you introduce a brush to curly hair, especially when it's wet, get prepared for damage and frizz. It's best to choose a wide-toothed comb. Comb your hair while it's still wet with conditioner in it to reduce damage. Don't comb dry hair (although brushing dry hair is the worst yet). Run your fingers through wet hair with your head upside down so the curls fall into a natural shape. Sometimes your fingers make a better comb. Ask your stylist to give you a few layers with your cut. This can make curly hair look less boxy. In fact, some stylists believe that getting proper layers is the most important factor as to whether curly hair will look good. Layers should start at your chin, and then your stylist should layer them downward. Uneven layering works best with curls. You should have more layers with longer hair. Avoid layering that makes your hair look like a triangle with the curls too weighted at the bottom. One-length cuts without layers can look heavy and be harder to manage with curls. They don't work well with curly hair because they harm the hair cuticle. There are a few sites that say they can be done, but they are dangerous without a very experienced stylist. Razor cuts actually increase curl in the hair. So they would work better for people who don't already have tight curls. If your curls are more wavy than they are tight, you are a better candidate for this kind of cut. If your stylist cuts your curly hair when it's wet, it can be hard to predict what it will really look like. Ask the stylist to cut your hair while dry so you can really tell how the curls will fall. This matters for straight hair too, but it's even more important with curls. Dry cuts will enable the stylist to cut your hair with more precision. They will be seeing the curls as you will be wearing them. What looks good on a celebrity with curly hair might not look good on you. It all depends on which style works best with your face shape. So figure out what's uniquely good for you. A short bob doesn't work well with heart or round-shaped faces, especially with curls. To figure out your face shape best, stand facing a mirror, and pull your hair back. Then, outline your face on the mirror with an eyeliner pencil. Now you can better assess your face shape. Play around with braids, high buns, and hair that is half up and half down. It's not true that curly hair must only be worn loose and flowing, although that can look good too. Wearing your hair up can look particularly romantic and attractive with curls. Make sure to pull a few strands down to frame your face.
Summary: Go medium or long. Beware of bangs. Don't use a brush. Choose layers. Avoid razor cuts. Ask for a dry cut. Study your face shape. Practice different styles.

Problem: Article: Your body gets used to doing the same things at the same time. When it comes to sleep, a steady schedule is best. By going to bed and getting up at the same time, your body will become accustomed to sleeping a certain number of hours at night which can help you avoid sleeping too much. Your body will want to wake up. Set a bedtime for yourself, at least eight hours before you must get up. To make sure you are actually going to sleep at your bedtime, set an alarm on your phone about an hour before. That way, you have time to wind down, turn off the electronics, and get ready for bed. One sleep cycle is about 90 minutes; therefore, try to plan the amount of sleep you get around your cycles. In fact, if you find yourself awake slightly before your alarm goes off, you should just get up, rather than entering another cycle. Waking up in the beginning or middle of a cycle can make you groggy. Don't exercise in the three hours before going to sleep. If you exercise too close to bedtime, it may stimulate your mind and body, keeping you awake.
Summary:
Stay on a routine. Make your bedtime mandatory. Be mindful of sleep cycles. Get exercise in earlier in the day.
