In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Don't be a downer. Don't always complain or spend a bunch of time insulting or being down on other people. You can be as exciting as you want, but if you're a jerk then you're not really going to have anyone to enjoy that with. Make the most of life, even when it's handing out lemons like they're going out of style. Everyone will be better for it. This is an essential part of making your life more exciting and being a more exciting person. You can't be exciting if you're always doing the same thing, even if that same thing is a little exciting. You have to take risks sometimes (a piece of advice that's handy for life in general). Don't go crazy though. Look at risks in terms of potential loss vs. potential gain. If you stand to lose only a little but gain a lot, go for it. If it's the other way around, wait for something better or blaze your own path. Don't forget, you can often make your own Option C, if neither A nor B is really going to work for you. And if who you are is a pointy-ear-wearing, Star-Trek-watching nerd, that's okay. No matter what your eccentricity is, run with it. It will make you stand out but it will also make you fun to be around and more interesting to talk to because you will be happy and enjoying what you do with your life. Constantly learn new things. Bonus points if you learn by doing! Filling your head with a world of experiences and knowledge is going to make you way more fun to talk to and you'll find that you enjoy the pursuit of knowledge along the way. . Everyone is unique. Absolutely everyone. If identical twins are different from each other and are unique, you can certainly manage. Find what is unique about you, what makes you different, and embrace that. Even if it's weird. You might not have to fly pride flags everywhere, but you can certainly make it a bigger part of your life. You'll find that it generally makes you happier. People love people that are funny, so develop a good joke repertoire and make people laugh. Find the positive side of problems. Make life seem less serious every now and again, or at least remind people that it's okay to laugh and relax. This will make you and everyone around you a lot happier. Your alternative is to be incredibly racist and offensive (the brand of exciting usually saved for grandparents who aren't particularly with the times), and you probably don't want to be that kind of exciting. Or maybe you do. Good luck with that. Don't think that constantly changing your hair or dress is going to make you seem more exciting. The same can be said of trying a thousand hobbies and professions. Constantly changing drastically from one thing to the next doesn't make you exciting, it makes people think you're frivolous and not invested in anything. You'll seem like you do it for the attention. Find what matters to you and let changes come naturally.
Summary: Enjoy life. Take risks. Embrace who you are. Learn stuff. Be original Be funny and positive. Be consistent.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You can find international exchange rates by searching for currency converters online. For example, you could search "convert Nepalese rupees" to find the rate of that soft currency. Do some calculations and become familiar with what the foreign currency equals in your home currency. You should carry some of the local cash on hand, but be sure to use an ATM or visit a bank, rather than paying exorbitant fees at conversion centers in the airport. It's also a good idea to see how much things you may need or want (like coffee, a newspaper, a hotel room, a bottle of wine) cost in your destination country so you aren't surprised upon arrival. Do an Internet search to determine if you may need a plug adapter and a converter. Many online travel sites list the type of plug you need. Things that heat up, such as a hair dryer, may not work correctly on the volts and cycles of a foreign country, even with a converter. Computer batteries and handheld devices may also be affected by electrical conversion. Some banks or credit card companies may decline your card if they aren't aware that you are in a foreign country. Call the customer service center and let them know where you are going and how long you will be staying in order to avoid and delays or declines. Many mobile phones will not work in locations other than your home country. Contact your service provider and inquire about international calling plans as well as data rates. Alternatively, you can purchase pre-paid calling cards before your trip and use a landline phone, such as in your hotel, to contact friends and family members back home. You can also use free communication apps, such as Skype, FaceTime, and/or WhatsApp that use the Internet for phone and video calls as well as text messages. It's a good idea to make color copies of your passport, plane or train tickets, hotel reservations, etc. If you only have digital copies of your itinerary, you may have trouble accessing them without an Internet connection. Keep copies of all your travel documents in your luggage. It's also a good idea to provide a friend or family member with copies in case your luggage gets lost or stolen. . Research the weather, terrain, and airline weight regulations before you travel. Overpacking for international travel is a mistake many people make, but lighter luggage is better. Choose items you really like, and plan on wearing them several times in different combinations. Don't forget to bring any medications you may need.
Summary: Find out the international exchange rate. Research electrical standards in your destination country. Notify your bank of your trip. Add an international calling plan to your phone service. Make copies of your travel documents or itinerary. Pack wisely

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Lay one of the treads you cut on the floor between the side rails. Then, mark its height on the side rails to help center your pilot holes. Move the tread out of the way after making the markings. The bottom rail rests on the ground in order to provide structural support. Create 2 pilot holes per side through the rails with a drill bit that is slightly thinner than the 2.5in (6.4cm) screws you'll use here. Put the tread back into position on the floor and drive the 4 screws through the pilot holes and into the tread. Use a counter-sink drill bit for the pilot holes if you want to completely conceal the screw heads later. Along each side rail, measure the distance from the top of the bottom tread to the top of the upper bunk's bed deck. Divide this measurement by 6 (for the remaining treads) and use this result to mark the location for each tread along both rails. For instance, if the measured distance is 66 inches (170cm), the centered markings for each tread will be 11 inches (28cm) apart. If you have a taller than normal bed, you may need more than 6 additional treads. Working from the top-down or bottom-up, hold a cut tread centered between a set of the spacing positions you just marked. Use a spirit level (bar level) to make sure the tread is level both width- and depth-wise. Mark its top and bottom positioning against the inside of both side rails. Using your markings for guidance, drill pilot holes 2 per side per tread through the side rails. Then, using a level as your work to confirm the positioning, secure each tread to the rails with 2.5in (6.4cm) wood screws. Recruit a friend to make this easier! While you can debate whether this is a ladder or a staircase, its angled rails and flat treads may be easier for kids to navigate than a vertical bed ladder.
Summary:
Position the bottom tread at the base of the side rails. Drill pilot holes and attach the bottom rail. Mark the spacing for the remaining treads on the side rails. Mark the leveled position for each tread on the side rails. Drill pilot holes and screw the remaining treads in place.
