Before you start worrying about memorizing the lyrics, it's important to get the tune of the song down. In many cases, the melody can actually help remind you of what the next words in the song are. If you can read music, you can study the sheet music to identify the notes that comprise the melody. Otherwise, listen to your recording of the song to hear how the vocalist sings the melody. When you're first singing the melody, you don't have to use the correct lyrics. It's often easier to just use “La” for each word until you've got the melody down. In many cases, it's easier to memorize lyrics when you understand the song's meaning. That's because you can start to visualize certain parts of the song, and the images that you come up with may help you remember key phrases or lines. If you're having trouble understanding the song, websites such as SongMeanings.com and SongFacts.com offer analysis of many popular songs.  You may want to search online for articles where the writer or composer of the song discussed its meaning. The song's creator is the best source for that information. If there are words that you don't understand in the lyrics, look them up in the dictionary. It's often difficult to remember words if you don't know what they mean. When you're ready to sit down and learn the song, it helps to work on it in separate parts, so you're not overwhelmed by the process. For example, you might start with the first verse and move onto the next verse once you've gotten that part down. The chorus is often a good place to start, though, because it typically recurs throughout the song, so you'll have memorized a larger percentage of the song if you learn it first. It's often a good idea to start with the most difficult section of the song. Whether it's second verse that has a lot of wordy lines or the chorus which moves very quickly, memorizing the toughest part will usually require the most work, so it's best to get it over with first.

Q: There is a learning curve with any new text input interface.

To quickly express ideas and thoughts through text, many people use shortened forms of words. Some of these will be evident right off the bat, like the use of the letter "u" to represent the word "you." Others may be less obvious, like the use of "pbb" to indicate "probably." Some common texting shorthand includes...  to/too = 2 for = 4 your/you're = ur are = r be = b be right back = brb talk to you later = ttyl by the way = btw see you later = c u l8r heart/love = <3 oh my god = omg never mind = nvm / nm I don't know = idk ta ta for now = ttfn just kidding = jk best friend forever= bff no problem = np thank you = ty While learning anything new, it can be easy to get discouraged.

Article: Though linoleum and vinyl flooring are fairly cheap compared to flooring options like hardwood and tile, you still won't want to spend any more money on your flooring project than necessary. Figuring out how much linoleum your project calls for beforehand can prevent you from wasting money on excessive flooring material and save you the hassle of having to run back to the hardware store if you don't have enough. For most projects, the easiest way to do this is simply to use an online calculator. Though online calculators will vary, most (including the one above) simply require you to input the length and width of your floor section (or sections) to receive a total estimate. For floor sections that are square or rectangular, you'll only need one length and width, but for a differently-shaped area of floor, you'll need to divide your square into rectangular sections and find a length and width for each to get an accurate total. You don't need to use a calculator to figure out how much linoleum you need — it's also pretty easy to find this amount by hand. Use one of the equations below to determine exactly how much linoleum is necessary for your project depending on whether you're buying sheet linoleum by the yard or tiled linoleum. Keep in mind that, regardless of the equation you use, your floor area value will be the length of your floor times its width (for each rectangular section of floor).  For sheet linoleum: (Floor area)/9 = # of Square yards of linoleum needed For 9-inch tiles: (Floor area)/0.5626 = # of 9-inch linoleum tiles needed For 12-inch tiles: (Floor area) = # of 12-inch linoleum tiles needed As with all home improvement projects, it's a smart use of your time to buy just a little extra when you're shopping for linoleum flooring. Just as you might buy extra concrete when pouring a new driveway, buying extra linoleum gives you the ability to correct for small mistakes you might make and also accounts for minor errors you may have made during the process of calculating the amount of linoleum you need. In addition, extra linoleum can be stored almost indefinitely and used to patch minor damage to your floor, line the bottom of cabinets under your sink, and for a variety of other home-improvement projects.

Article: This can be a straight razor, a hair shaper, or even a disposable shaver. Just ensure that your razor is very sharp and has a single blade. Using dull tools or ones with multiple blades can cause split ends.  Professional hair shaping razors come with ergonomic handles especially designed for cutting hair. Using a razor for extremely coarse or curly hair might not be your best bet, as this sometimes also causes split ends. Start with the section closest to your nose. Just as you would with scissors, hold one section of hair at a time while cutting for the best look. Remember to keep your sections to about an inch long or shorter to prevent over cutting. Use your middle and index finger to pull your hair up to form a 90 degree angle with your face. Slide your fingers down towards the tips of your hair. Hold them just above where you plan to cut. Use your razor to gently cut into the hair section by section to form a diagonal. Use a gentle gliding motion away from your face. Keep each section lined up at the same angle. Continue until you reach the longest part. Comb out your bangs and position them towards the side where you want them to fall. Check for sections you've missed or uneven breaks in the diagonal. Correct your mistake by pulling the section forward again and trimming it back with another stroke of your razor.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Choose an appropriate razor. Take hair one segment at a time. Pull each bang section taut. Run the razor across your hair. Check your bangs when finished.
