Problem: Article: Write the dates of your exams in your calendar. You might want to put a star beside them to indicate their importance. Then, figure out how many days you have left before your exams. Divide the number of days left before exams by the number of subjects you need to prepare for. Now you know how many days you have available to prepare for each subject. Use your textbook and learning materials to determine the specific topic areas within each subject. English Literature, for example, may be broken down into the different books you are studying and then further into chapters, themes, or quotes. Highlight or circle the topics using different colours. Figure out how many topics or sub categories you have for each subject. Then, divide up the time you have for the subject into study blocks for each topic. If you are currently employed, you should review your work schedule for the upcoming weeks. Figure out where you can schedule study-time between your shifts. If you have a lot of upcoming shifts, consider working less so that you have more time for revisions. You need to figure out when your studying may be interrupted by social events or holidays, so that you can plan accordingly. If it looks like there will be a weekend when you are unable to study due to a social obligation, try to put in your revision time beforehand.
Summary: Find out how much time you have to prepare. Create study blocks for each topic. Look at your work calendar. Review upcoming holidays and social events.

Problem: Article: The circles can be any size you want, but something around 1½ to 2 inches (3.81 to 5.08 centimeters) would be ideal. Book pages, origami paper, tissue paper, and wrapping paper are all great options. Some scrapbooking paper may also work. Avoid using cardstock, as it is too thick.  You can use the same color of paper for all of the circles, or experiment with using different colors.  For a more interesting ornament, consider using double-sided paper. If you are using double-sided paper, make sure you are folding them all the same way. The pattern on side A should be on the inside, and the pattern on side B should be on the outside. Make sure that the creases are all nestled inside each other. If you are using double-sided paper, make sure that the same design is facing upwards. If you are using two or more different colors, start with your first color, then stack the rest in groups of two. For example: Red, green, green, gold, gold, red. If you don't have access to a sewing machine, you can tie thread around the middle, using the crease as a guide. Leave the tail ends long, as you will be using them to make the loop. Consider using gold or silver thread for this. You will be using the tail ends to make a loop so that you can hang your ornament. The loop needs to be big enough to fit over a branch on your Christmas tree. You can also tie the tail ends around a small jump ring, then trim them off; make sure that the jump ring is flush with the top of the stack. This way, you can slip an ornament hook through the jump ring. Set the stack down on the table. Place a glue dot along the right edge of the circle, one-third of the way from the top. Place another glue dot one third from the bottom.  Use permanent glue dots; the stronger the hold, the better.  If you don't have any glue dots, you can use a small dot of liquid glue. Use paper clips to hold the paper together while the glue dries. Use the crease you made as a guide. Once you have the paper folded, run your finger along the edges to seal the glue dots. This time, place the glue dot right at the halfway point. It should be right between the first two glue dots. Alternate between using two glue dots and one glue dot. When you reach the end, flip the stack over, and do the other side. When you get to the end, seal the final two pieces of paper using one or two glue dots (depending which you are on). This pulls the paper into a sphere shape. You may have to slip your finger into the slots to help them open up. If you added a jump ring, slip an ornament hook through the jump ring, then hang the ornament.
Summary: Use a glass to trace 12 circles onto lightweight paper, then cut the circles out. Fold the papers in half to make a crease, then unfold them. Stack the papers on top of each other. Sew a straight line down the center. Tie the tail ends to make the loop. Place two glue dots along the outer right edge of your circle. Fold the circle over, sandwiching the glue dots in between. Place another glue dot along the outer right edge. Keep folding and gluing until you reach the end of the stack. Close the ornament, and flare it out. Hang your ornament.

Problem: Article: Choose the setting on your dishwasher that best reflects the condition of your cutlery. In most cases, a normal cycle should be sufficient, but especially dirty flatware might require a heavy cycle. Turn off the drying cycle, if you are able. Then add a suitable detergent to your dishwasher, close its door, then start the washing cycle.  To make it easier to return the cutlery to its place in your kitchen, you may want to separate your spoons, forks, and knives in your dishwasher. Some cutlery, especially certain kinds of spoons, can nest together in your dishwasher, making them difficult for your dishwasher to clean. You may want to spread out utensils like this, so your dishwasher can work most effectively. Stainless steel sometimes requires several wash cycles before it is completely clean. Older dishwashers and severely dirty cutlery, especially, might require a second run through the dishwasher.  Inspect your cutlery after each cycle for remaining food, stains, or dirtiness. If you spot any, your utensils likely need a second cycle. Be careful when removing cutlery from your dishwasher to inspect it. Just after cleaning, the utensils can be very hot. After your dishwasher's cleaning cycle is complete, remove your cutlery from it. Even if the cutlery is mostly dry, thoroughly wipe each utensil with a soft, dry cloth or a piece of paper towel. Drying by hand reduces spots left on your cutlery.
Summary: Place your cutlery into the dishwasher. Run additional cycles as necessary. Hand dry washed cutlery for best results.

Problem: Article: If the chafed skin is torn or bleeding, there is a possibility that it could get infected with harmful bacteria. Gently pour warm water over the skin and apply a mild soap. Keep rinsing until all of the soap is gone. Carefully pat your skin dry with a towel. Don’t scrub or rub the chafed skin or you may worsen the damage. Your goal is not to smooth out the skin right now, it’s to cleanse it. Now that your skin is clean and free of debris, get a clean hand towel and soak it in warm water. Wring it out and place it on the irritated skin. Let it sit until it grows cold. Re-wet it again, if you are still in pain. The heat will help to increase blood flow to the area and reduce inflammation. Once your skin is dry, place a small amount of lubricant or cream onto your fingertips. Slowly work this lubricant or cream into your chafed skin, rubbing in tiny circles. Apply enough product so that the entire damaged skin is covered. This will help promote healing.  Apply the cream again at least once daily, until the chafed skin is no longer open or raw. If your chafed skin is red, swollen, or crusted, apply an antibacterial cream to prevent or treat the infection. For the next few days, it’s best to minimize any activities that might further irritate that patch of chafed skin. If you have a saddle sore, skip biking for a bit. If you have a thigh burn, try to minimize walking long distances. If a certain piece of clothing is causing the chafing, such as a particular swimsuit, skip that suit and go with another one. If the skin remains red and irritated for more than a week, you may want to contact your doctor for an appointment or advice. It is possible that you might have an infection that could be treated with oral medications or a medicated cream.
Summary:
Warm with warm water and mild soap. Apply a warm compress. Rub in a lubricant or cream. Give your skin time to heal. Talk with your doctor.
