Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Say sorry and be as genuine as possible. Own your mistake and admit what you did wrong. Express remorse to show her that you feel bad. Promise to never repeat the mistake again.

Answer: Start out with a heartfelt apology. A simple, "I am really sorry for what I did. I was wrong," is a perfectly acceptable way to start out. You cannot get an angry girl to forgive if you don't apologize, so start off on the right foot by saying sorry first. Don't use a snarky or sarcastic tone. You don't have to apologize if you think you were wronged, but don't expect her to forgive you anytime soon. If your goal is to get her to forgive you, you'll need to apologize even if you think you didn't do anything wrong. "I'm really sorry," and "I'm so sorry" sound better than, "Sorry," which can come off as curt and dismissive. You aren't going to be able to move forward until you accept that you were wrong, so don't bother trying to bring up anything that she did. If you're uncomfortable apologizing or owning up to your mistake, take a breath and keep your apology simple. Say, "I should have told you about the job before I told my friends. I screwed up," or, "I know that it was wrong to not call you when I came home and I'm sorry." She is more likely to move past your mistake if she knows that you feel bad about what you did. Feeling guilty is a sign that you know you did something wrong, and telling her that you understand why she's upset will make it easier for her to try and let it go. Say something like, "I shouldn't have blown you off the other night. I feel terrible." Even if the two of you aren't romantically involved, explain why your mistake was so bad and acknowledge your relationship. Say, "You're my best friend, I don't know why I would ignore your calls like that," or "You're my sister and I'd never be dishonest on purpose." Start to wrap up your apology by vowing to never repeat the action that upset her again. Explain that you simply made a mistake and that you'll never do it again. Use the word "mistake" to talk about what you did. This makes it seem like you weren't actively trying to hurt her. Don't say "I'll try to not do it again," but, "I won't do it again." If you frame it like it's outside of your control you'll seem like you're leaving the possibility open that you'll do it again in the future. If you're going to explain your mistake, say something like, "I won't say something like that ever again. I thought I was telling a joke, but I see that it was dumb." If you try to justify it you may only make things worse.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Get the hard subjects out of the way first. Take breaks. Don't procrastinate. Skip around subjects.

Answer: You'll be working on it when your brain is fresher, which will make it easier than if you tried to do it when your brain is tired. Also, once you get it out of the way, you'll feel like you've done something big. In addition, your other work will seem easier after the hard stuff. Studying for too long without breaks can wear you down. In addition, you'll stop absorbing information as well. Be sure to take regular breaks at least once an hour. Get up and walk around. Get a cup of tea. Do jumping jacks, or go talk to a friend for a few minutes. Just take a mental break, and you'll be more prepared to jump back in. Though you need to take breaks, when it's time to study, you need to study. Don't doodle, or write random notes in the margins. Actually get down to work when you're supposed to, and you'll cut down significantly on your study time. Instead of trying to study one subject for hours, skip from subject to subject, especially if you have several tests ahead. For instance, try moving subjects when you take a break. This type of studying keeps you more interested in what you're learning, helping you to learn what you need to know faster.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Make sure he treats you with respect. See how well he communicates with you. Find out his own life goals.

Answer: A good boyfriend will give you the respect you deserve. He is considerate of your feelings, he listens to you, he is supportive, and he trusts you. He should also have respect for himself. Having self-respect means that he thinks that he is worthy of your attention, he can accomplish things, and he is comfortable with himself. A strong relationship relies on good communication. Your boyfriend should be honest with you, and should be able to talk calmly about problems without yelling or insulting you., Good communication also requires listening. A good boyfriend will pay attention to what you're saying and take it to heart. A good boyfriend has goals of his own, such as certain career goals that he'd like to achieve. His path to achieving these goals will demonstrate how motivated he is. He will be proactive about pursuing these goals, rather than whining about how he can't do something.
