Problem: Article: Regular progress reviews will help to ensure that you're making good progress, so set a schedule for these checks. If you're the mentor, evaluate your mentee once every 6 months. If you're the mentee, suggest an evaluation every 6 months by discussing it with your mentor and including it in your plan. During 6 month reviews, have the mentor and mentee revisit the mentorship plan, goals, and objectives to see what the mentee has accomplished or what they are working towards. For example, if the mentee set a goal to publish a paper by the end of the year, then by the first 6 month review there should be some tangible evidence that the mentee is moving towards that goal, such as having a paper accepted by a scholarly journal or at least having submitted a paper to a journal by that point. If you're the mentor, make sure to provide encouragement and feedback on the mentee's progress. You can do this by making notes on what they have accomplished and putting these notes into the form of a letter. If you're the mentee, identify any goals that you have not made progress towards and ask for guidance from your mentor, especially if you are struggling with any of your objectives. After reviewing the mentorship plan together, you and your mentor or mentee can make adjustments to the plan as needed, such as changing goal completion dates, modifying goals, or adding new goals. Use the notes that the mentor made during review and any concerns the mentee stated to adjust the plan. For example, if the mentee set a goal to attend 3 professional development workshops within the next year, but they have only found 2 suitable ones, then you might adjust the goal and consider it met. Or, if the mentee has already accomplished one of their 2 year goals at the 1 year checkup, then you might set a new goal for them to work towards. Once you and your mentor are happy with the new or revised plan, you can both sign it to make it official. Ensure that you both agree to the goals and other objectives set forth in the plan and make any changes needed before you sign it.
Summary: Evaluate the mentee biannually to check on their progress. Make adjustments to the mentorship plan and goals as needed. Review the plan together and have both parties sign it.

Problem: Article: Hipsters come in all shapes and forms and they all want to be unique and cool. Never ever call yourself a hipster, you'll look and sound like a poser. If anyone asks if you are, say no. Or walk away and act like you don't know what they're talking about or you can act awkward and change the subject. It is also okay to react with sarcasm. You can even roll your eyes or get angry if someone calls you a hipster. If you really want to be a hipster, then you have to reject mainstream culture and work on finding your own, more independent interests. That means playing bocce with your friends in the park instead of watching the Super Bowl, learning how to make your own tahini instead of going to Burger King, and never listening to any mainstream radio stations. Even if you secretly love Beyonce, Lady Gaga, or Britney Spears (gasp!), you can't talk about them in public. Most hipsters adopt an eco-friendly and healthy eating lifestyle, so no more going to The Olive Garden, McDonald's, or Pizza Hut -- no matter how badly you crave it. Even if you're really upset because your friend has hurt your feelings, or you're really excited because you found out that the cute guy in your math class with the thick-framed glasses has a big crush on you, you have to learn how to control your emotions -- a slight frown or a slight smile should be the most that you can muster. You don't have to be unfriendly, but you should avoid waving wildly, giving loud hugs, or openly falling into a crying jag in public. To a hipster, everything is "pretty cool" or "just okay" -- your emotional spectrum shouldn't be too wide. Rolling your eyes, looking at the floor, or languidly checking your phone is a great way to look like you don't care. And try not to crack up, no matter how funny something is -- go for a quick laugh, a chuckle, or even just say "that's funny" without cracking a smile. If you want to be a true hipster, then you have to learn not to take things at face value and to use a winning and wry sarcasm to express even the most basic thoughts. If it's pouring rain, you can say, "I think I'll go for a jog" in a flat tone that may make people laugh or at least snicker. Be sarcastic to your girlfriend as well as to any guys who come your way, even if they try to ask you out. If you manage your sarcasm the right way, people will be charmed and amused by you. Just don't overdo it, or people will feel like you don't take anything seriously.
Summary: Never call yourself a hipster. Avoid the mainstream like the plague. Don't act like you care. Go heavy on the sarcasm.

Problem: Article: If it helps, you can erase the lines you drew when tracing your photo. Then use a pair of scissors or a blade to cut along the inside rectangle (which you drew in the previous step) and the outside border of your frame. Now you have the foundation for the front of your picture frame! It can be tricky to cut the inside corners, but it's ok if they don't look flawless. You'll be covering them up with fabric anyway! This will serve as the back panel for your frame. Trace the frame, or mark out its dimensions onto another piece of cardboard, and cut it out with scissors. You can use the same cardboard, but a lighter-weight version would also be fine if you've used corrugated cardboard for the front. Or, if you've used lightweight cardboard for the front, you can use corrugated cardboard for the back to provide some support. With the wrong side of the fabric facing up, place the front frame piece down onto the fabric. Center it as best you can. If you want your frame to stand up, use a leftover piece of stiff cardboard as the frame stand. Cut a rectangle the same height as your frame, and fold down the top by 14 to 12in (0.64 to 1.27cm). Then apply glue to this folded piece and stick it onto the back of the frame. Allow the glue to dry completely before standing up your frame.
Summary:
Cut along the innermost and outermost lines. Cut a second piece of cardboard the same size as the open frame. Place the open frame onto your piece of fabric. Glue a folded piece of cardboard to the back panel as a frame stand.
