If it is healthy and happy then it should be active and seem happy. Does it move around, eat seed, and drink water? While a budgie should be relatively calm when left alone, it is natural for a budgie to tighten its feathers when you come near its cage, so don't read that behavior negatively. Usually, the budgies from pet shops are not hand tamed, which means that you will have to be willing to take the time to help it get accustomed to your hand, if you want to be able to hold it. If you want to buy a budgie that is already hand tamed, you will need to go to a specialized budgie breeder. You can tell the age of a budgie by the black bars on the forehead. A young budgie (under 4 months) will have black bars all the way down to the cere, which is the fleshy part above the beak. Above 4 months, the bars will disappear. If the budgie is "molting" it is around 6 months old, this is a good age to train a budgie. This only matters if you have a preference and only works when they are old enough that the bars are gone. For males, the cere is blue. For females, the cere will be very light blue, beige, or brown. Male budgies are slightly better talkers, so if you are concerned with that you might want to make sure you get a male bird. However, a young healthy bird of either sex can be a great talker with the right training. If you are purchasing a budgie from a seller that has a lot of healthy and active birds, then feel free to pick your budgie based on looks. Budgies come in a huge variety of colors, so pick the color combination that you like best!

summary: Assess your potential budgie's temperament. Look for a budgie that is young. Determine if your potential budgie is male or female. Pick a bird that is attractively colored.

The more you write raps and rhymes, the more raps and rhymes you ultimately know. As you write rhymes, practice coming up with multiple variations on the same rhyming words. These clusters of rhymes will serve you well when you begin free-styling, because you'll be able to think of something quickly if you've used these rhymes before. Try different exercises, like picking five words at random and working them into a rhyming structure of a few lines. Don't worry if what you're writing isn't "rap." Just keep the pen moving. Building good habits of journaling and writing will keep your mind disciplined toward words and thinking in terms of composition, something you'll have to do very quickly if you want to freestyle. If you hope to be able to freestyle, words are going to be your medium. As a painter uses paints and a sculptor uses clay, a rapper uses words, so you need to gather as big a pile of familiar words you possibly can so that you can draw on them in your rhymes. Reading a diverse variety of books, comics, online articles, and magazines is the best way to do this. Read biographies of rappers. You can kill two birds with one stone by reading about hip-hop while simultaneously improving your vocab. This will soon be your best friend in the world. Look at a rhyming dictionary less as a crutch and more as creative resource. It's not cheating to look up rhyming words while you're in the middle of writing some rhymes, because it might jog something loose you'd never have thought of previously. A good, cheap dictionary and a thesaurus are great resources too. Your rhymes will eventually be a lot more interesting the greater the variety of words becomes. SAT or GRE study guides are great vocabulary sources. Look up words in rap songs you don't recognize and study the definitions. Hip-hop is often jargon-heavy, using regional words, locations, and phrases, so it helps to look things up online. Chief Keef's "Love Sosa" doesn't make much sense if you think it's about the baseball player. Try taping up notecards with the definitions of new words around your house. You can be learning a new word while you're making breakfast or brushing your teeth if there's a notecard taped to the wall in the kitchen and bathroom.

summary: Write. Read. Get a rhyming dictionary. Learn new words actively.
