Slide your pad or tampon into a boot or sock. Get excused from class, then stop by your locker. Bring a small bag or makeup case with you. Take something else with you. Sandwich your pad inside your phone case."
article: Pads and tampons can come in noisy wrapping. When you're searching for them in your bag, move the rest of your bag around to create noises that will disguise the sound of you hiding your pad or tampon. The clatter of pens and keys are a good distraction from the sound of plastic. You will find that there are many places on your body that you can hide something small. Tampons, especially applicator-free ones, are discreet when your fist is closed. They might be more difficult to keep in your sleeve, but you can usually hold them in place with a finger or two. Since your feet are under your desk, this is more discreet than putting it in your pocket. Slide your bag or whatever your items are in between your legs. Reach inside and slide your pad or tampon into your shoe or sock. It might be a good idea to bend down to put something away when doing this, or else come back up with an item, so that you have an excuse for reaching into your bag. If you keep your items in your locker, you won't have to worry about taking them out of class. Try to keep your emergency supplies for emergencies, and bring new supplies to school when you know that you've started your period. Bringing a bag might be more visible, but you may just not want to deal with digging around for your hygiene products in the middle of class. A pencil case can work as well. If you need to come back for your items, take something else with you, like a water bottle or a wallet. That way, you can pretend that you are refilling your water bottle, or getting something from the vending machine. Some people actually keep pads or tampons hidden in water bottles. Panty liners and applicator-free tampons will also fit easily inside of a wallet. If you have a phone case with a flap that closes, you can squeeze your pad into that spot. Reach into your bag with your phone in your hand, slide the pad in, and put your phone in your pocket.

article: If you're considering getting into improv, the best way to know for sure is to take a class. Joining an improv class will teach you more about the genre and give you all of the necessary tools you'll need to be a successful improv actor. There are different levels of improv classes, including a beginner's level, so don't be afraid to join a class. Even if you end up not pursuing improv, taking a class can be a great way to gain self confidence, improve your communication skills, meet new friends, and spark your other areas of creativity. Improv classes can be found in almost every city, so look online to find a class near you. If you decide that you're serious about pursuing improv, you should consider moving to a city that is known for it's comedy scene. Some of these cities are Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York City. Take a free class with a friend. Some theaters offer free classes to help promote their new classes or their upcoming season. Go to classes as often as you can and practice regularly. This is also called the 'Don't Deny' rule. This rule means that you should always say yes. If the person you're working with has an idea, build upon what they have created. Do not deny the scenario they have set up, just go with it. Even after you've gotten good at improv, this basic rule should still be followed. If your scene partner starts the scene by stating that you two are pirates, then you must embrace that you two are pirates. If you deny that you're a pirate, you will discredit your scene partner and cause tension in your scene. It's a good idea to always start scenes on a positive note. When a scene begins positively, there are many more directions for the scene to go. However, if a scene begins on a negative note, it doesn't have much room to grow. Scenes that start negatively usually result in the characters fighting or dying. For example, if you start a scene by saying "Nobody likes you at school, they think you're so weird," there isn't much that can be done with that scene besides an argument. However, if you say "Everyone at school thinks you're so weird, but in a cool way," the scene has room for growth. You can talk about how your character is different, what makes it cool, etc. Make positive statements to allow your scene partners to embrace their characters. Collaboration is the key to successful improv; you cannot create a successful improv scene on your own. Everyone that is a part of a scene must work together and support one another, otherwise the scene will not work. Embrace each other's ideas, give everyone a chance to shine, and give each other opportunities to enhance the scene. Focus on the overall scene as opposed to your role in the scene. If everyone wants what's best for the scene, they'll be more willing to share the spotlight and let each character have their shine. In improv, it's important that you learn how to work well with others, as you'll be creating scenes and scenarios off of one another. When you're working with a partner, both of you should get the same amount of shine. Don't try to upstage your partner, but don't let them outshine you either. Practice working with others so that you can understand a good balance of give and take when doing improv with a partner.

article:
A metal scraper is a good place to start, though if you're worried about scratching the surface, you can use a plastic one. The polyurethane should peel off fairly easily as you move along. The paint stripper should have done the hard work. Scrape in the direction of the wood grain. Scrubbing against the grain can damage the surface of the floors or furniture. Plus, if you add any scratches, it will look like the grain of the wood. In curved or decorative areas, a scraper won't work as well. Instead, scrub it with a metal brush, as the bristles will get in all the nooks and crannies and remove the polyurethane. After wash is a solvent you use after paint stripper. Its purpose is to clean up the end of the polyurethane, as well as remove the paint stripper you used. Just use a paper towel to rub it in. You don't have to leave it on for any time. Just rub it on until the rest of the polyurethane comes up. If the first round didn't take off enough of the polyurethane, go through the process again. Apply another layer of paint stripper to the area, and then scrape it down again, checking to see if that completed the process. After you've removed most of the polyurethane, sand down what remains. You can simply use fine steel wool. You can also use 150-grit sandpaper. The sandpaper will smooth it out and take off the last of the polyurethane. The after wash should have taken off most of the polyurethane, which is why you shouldn't need a heavy-duty sandpaper. Always rub with the grain. Take the water and rags to a hazardous waste disposal unit in your town, along with leftover stripper. Do not throw rags and chemicals directly into the trash or sewer. Contact your city to find your local waste disposal center.
