Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Be positive. Practice mindfulness or meditation. Write about your stress.

Answer: Even though you're young and not going through the best of times it is important to stay positive. Positivity will help you change your mind set about the situation, which can help to reduce your stress levels.  Sometimes spending too much time on social media (Facebook, Instagram, SnapChat, Vine, Twitter, etc) can lead to comparing ourselves to others and feelings of jealously or low self-esteem. If you feel negative emotions when you are online or on social media, try taking a 15 minute break (or more if you can do it) and focus on doing something positive (such as drawing, talking with a friend in person, or riding your bike). Use positive self-talk, such as, “I have been successful with my efforts in the past. If I put my mind to passing this test, I can do well.”  Have a positive attitude by changing your bad thoughts. Some examples of bad thoughts are, “I am going to fail. I can’t do this.” Try to think different thoughts like, “I am going to try by best, and I know I can get through this.” See the difference? Say the happy thoughts to yourself when you are feeling stressed. Focus on what you do well instead of what you do wrong. You could draw a flower, and on the petals write positive things about yourself or what you do, like: I am loving, I tried my best, and I am nice to animals.  Avoid saying bad things out loud. Stop using words like “won’t,” “can’t,” “always,” and “never.” Try instead to use the words “will,” “can,” “most of the time,” and, “not very often.” Mindfulness meditation can help lower stress over time. Mindfulness is about focusing on what you are doing or feeling right now. Stop and notice what is happening in this moment.  First, notice the feeling you are experiencing. What does it feel like in your body? Does it feel tense, is your heart beating fast, do you have butterflies in your stomach? Next, name the emotion. Are you stressed, overwhelmed, anxious? Then, accept the emotion as natural and normal. The more you accept your emotion the less power it will have over you. You can say to your emotion, “I accept you, stress. Even though I don’t like how you feel, I know that you may happen sometimes and I will learn to deal with you.” Try using bubbles to practice deep breathing. This can help to calm you down. Try to slowly blow one big bubble; this helps you learn how to use your deep breathing in a fun way! Writing down your feelings and thoughts can help you work through your problems and get your emotions out instead of keeping them inside of you.  Find a clean paged notebook or diary to write in and write down what you are feeling. Write a letter to the thing that is bothering you such as a math test. Tell the math test how you are thinking and feeling as if the test were a person. You could write something like, “Math test- you make me so stressed out, but I really want to get a good score.” If you don’t like to write you could draw a picture that shows how you are feeling.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Find the screws and pry up the cover. Center the toilet seat on the toilet. Tighten the bolt. Apply tension. Keep screwing until the seat is tight.

Answer: The back of your toilet seat is usually connected to the toilet with two long screws that run through the porcelain at the back of the bowl. The screws are secured by two nuts underneath. In the front of the cover, look for a small groove that is designed to help you pry up the cover. Then, use a small screwdriver to pry up both the seat and the cover. In cheap toilets, the screws are made of plastic. Most toilets, however, use steel screws, and more expensive models may even use brass or stainless steel. Be especially careful with plastic screws! If the seat is loose, then it may wobble back and forth, in and out of alignment with the rim of the toilet bowl. Straighten out the seat so that it rests evenly atop the bowl. Consider sitting down to test it out for comfort. Turn the screwdriver clockwise to tighten. Remember: "righty tighty, lefty loosey." There's usually a nut with a wing attached to prevent the nut from turning. If there isn't,  hold the nut with a rag while you tighten the bolt. Decide which screwdriver is the best fit. Make sure that the screwdriver head is big enough to fit into the notches of the bolt head. If the screwdriver is too small, then the bolt will not turn. The friction from the slipping screwdriver will quickly wear down the bolt and make it unusable. If the bolt keeps turning without tightening up, clamp the nut underneath with a small pair of pliers. Clamp onto the end of the nut, and hold it steady as you screw the bolt. Once you have twisted the bolt several times, the wing on the nut should prevent it from turning anymore. To loosen the nut, spray it with WD 40 and wait 5 minutes. When the bolt feels tight, give it one more quarter rotation so it's extra secure. Once the seat does not wobble back and forth, push down the lid. It should click closed.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Pour three parts water to one part white wine vinegar into the pot or pan. Bring the solution to a boil on the stove top. Add 2 tbsps (15.62 g) of baking soda to the pot or pan. Scour the pot or pan with a sponge. Rinse the pot or pan. Dry the pot or pan.

Answer:
Mix the solution with a spoon or a fork until it becomes well incorporated. The acidic vinegar will clean dirty and tarnished areas on the aluminum. Turn your stovetop to high and bring the mixture to a boil. Let the solution boil for a minute. Your pot or pan should already start looking cleaner. Take the kitchenware off the heat and place it into your sink. Pour the baking soda into the pot or pan. It should start to fizz and react to the vinegar and water solution. Let the baking soda sit in the pot or pan until it stops fizzing, then pour it out into your sink. Use a non-abrasive sponge to scour the inside and outside of the pot or pan. Add more water and baking soda to especially troublesome areas until the pot or pan looks shiny. Hold the pot or pan under the sink and run hot water from the faucet. Continue rinsing it until all of the baking soda and vinegar solution is removed from the pot or pan. Wipe down the inside and outside of the pot with a cotton rag or paper towels. Continue to wipe the kitchenware until it’s completely dry.
