Article: During class, write down the most important points emphasized by your teacher or professor. Write down your questions, points about the plot of the book, your opinions, your teacher or professor's opinions, and your classmates' comments. Write down the big, main points--don't get weighed down in the details. Keep all of your notes for your literature class together in one notebook or section of a binder so that you can stay organized. Here are some ways to organize your notes: Themes of the class as a whole Your own thoughts and questions Interesting points from class discussions Themes and symbols in particular books Your teacher or professor's thoughts about a book (which will be more common in college lectures than in high school class discussions) Important notes about the plot Details about the historical context of the text If your class is discussion-based, pay attention when other students are speaking. Look at the student who is speaking and practice active listening skills, including nodding at the person, absorbing what the person is saying (rather than preparing a response in your head!), and turning towards the person with open body language. Ask questions to make sure you understand what the person means. You should respond thoughtfully to your classmates' ideas and opinions, whether you agree or disagree. Everyone will enjoy the class more if the students are respectful and interested. Express your thoughts and opinions in class, and ask questions. Demonstrate to your teacher or professor that you want to succeed by going to his or her office hours and talking further about the readings. Come to class prepared to discuss the readings and to listen to the thoughts of your teacher or professor. Stay after class to ask a quick question or comment on a point you think is interesting. If you are having trouble understanding the material, reach out to your professor. He or she will be happy to help you through complicated material. When asking a question in front of the class, speak clearly and loudly. Look the person you're talking to in the eye. Don't interrupt the answer to your question. Use open-ended question, rather than questions with a "yes" or "no" answer. A good open-ended question might be, "How do race and politics interact in this novel?" Ask shorter, more specific questions, rather than long, general questions.

Problem: Article: You're never going to be able to tell if she's out of your league or not if you don't talk to her. You may feel awkward walking up to her, but all you need to do is get a conversation going. You don't have to actually hit on her. Opening a conversation is much more effective than a pickup line at gauging someone's interest. Pick something simple to start the conversation. Ask her about what she's drinking or the music playing. You could say something like, "Isn't this song great?" You can also try to get her to put the spotlight on herself, so she's not judging you. You could say something like, "What an interesting drink choice. What do you like about it?" Another way to break the ice is to ask a small favor of her. You don't have to ask her to run out to the corner store for you or anything like that. Rather, just ask her something small, such as asking her to pass a straw. You could also say something like, "Would you mind moving your bag so I can sit here?" Also, give her your name and ask for hers in return. While wildly different people do get into relationships, most people find partners who are similar to themselves. Education, socioeconomic standing, and beliefs all play a part in finding a good match. The principle of "matching" does apply to looks, too. However, if you're compatible in other ways, looks may not matter as much. Try drawing her out a bit to find more about her. Once you do, you'll be able to assess whether she's out of your league, or whether, in fact, you're out of hers. For example, ask her about her educational background just as a point of interest, such as, "So where did you go to school?" Complimenting her shows you have an interest in her, especially if it is specific to her person. Making it specific shows you've paid attention to her, and it will come off as seeming more real. You don't have to stick to her looks. If you've been talking to her for a few minutes, you could comment on her wittiness or the fact that she has a great laugh. Laughing when she cracks a joke shows you're listening, and it can you that you like her. You don't want to laugh too much, as you may come as fake. However, laughing when she says something truly funny or even mildly humorous will show her you have a good sense of humor. Also, don't be afraid to crack a joke, especially one at your own expense, as it shows her you don't take yourself too seriously. When you see her drink is getting low, order her another. If you see she's shifting back and forth on her heels, ask her if she wants to sit down. By anticipating her needs, you'll show her that you are a genuine, caring person and that you're the kind of person she wants to get to know more.
Summary: Talk to her to figure out if you're in her league. Ask her a favor. Ask her about herself. Don't be afraid to compliment her. Chuckle at her jokes. Anticipate her needs.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: To give your creativity a jump-start, socialize as much as you can, particularly with people who are different from you. Spending time with people whose life experience and world view is unlike yours can expand your mind and offer fresh perspective on everyday things. To meet new people, attend events or do activities that are outside of your normal routine and engage in conversation whenever possible. For instance, if the art world is new to you, visit a gallery or museum and strike up a conversation with an artist or patron. Break the ice by saying something like, "I'm new to the art world. Is this a passion of yours?" Try varying your established routes to increase the chances you'll meet new people. Walking can provide you time to think over ideas by allowing you to zone out and engage with creative thoughts. Walking will also allow you to engage with new surrounding or nature, both of which may inspire your creativity. Make a point of walking several times a week for at least fifteen minutes, or everyday if possible. Exercising regularly can boost creativity by reducing stress and improving cognitive function. Create an exercise regimen for yourself to follow, aiming for about 30 minutes of exercise a day. Choose light cardio exercise like walking, jogging, or bicycling. Sleep can help your mind stay rested and refreshed, leaving you creatively recharged. The brain is also very active during sleep, so "sleeping on a problem" may allow your mind to re-evaluate connections and formulate new ideas about an issue.Strive to get a solid 8 to 9 hours sleep each night, and stay on a sleep schedule.

SUMMARY: Socialize with different people. Walk when possible. Exercise. Get enough sleep.
