Q: The best way to improve your handwriting in a short amount of time is to use practice worksheets. There are numerous online resources that provide printable worksheets and exercises. Find some that seem appealing to you, download them, and print them out. You will need roughly 90 worksheets in total.   You might visit https://studenthandouts.com/handwriting-worksheets/ to download worksheets. You can also visit http://www.softschools.com/handwriting/alphabets/ for worksheets. If you’d prefer, you can purchase a handwriting workbook, such as Write Now by Barbara Getty and Inga Dubay. In order to improve your handwriting, you will need a couple of tools: a pen or pencil that you like to write with and a notebook you can dedicate to this project. Choose a pen or pencil that feels comfortable in your hand, and choose a notebook that you like. In order to improve your handwriting, you need to evaluate your starting point. Take out your pen and notebook and write a paragraph (at least 4-6 lines of text) about anything you want. Then spend some time carefully evaluating each aspect of your lettering. What are your strengths and weaknesses?  Try to notice:  The shapes of your letters The slant of your words (and whether or not it is consistent) The spaces between letters and words The size of your letters The alignment of your writing (moving upward or downward; overlapping with other words) To improve your handwriting in 30 days, you need to focus on some specific elements you’d like to improve. Choose one or two elements of your handwriting that you’d really like to change, and focus on these as you practice. Some areas for improvement might include:   Letters that are squished together Letters that are too far apart Letters that are difficult to read Too sharp of an angle to your letters In order to improve your handwriting, it can be helpful to see examples of handwriting that you like. You can follow Instagram accounts dedicated to bullet journaling or calligraphy. Or you can visit some typography websites in order to see a wide variety of letter types. Some websites include:   Google fonts Typewolf MyFonts FontShop In order for this to work in just 30 days, you have to be dedicated every day. Fortunately, you only need about 20–30 minutes of practice daily. Schedule your handwriting practice each day, and do not allow other obligations to get in the way.  It can be helpful to do this at the same time each day, so that you form a habit. If other people try to interrupt this time, explain that this is important to you.
A: Download worksheets. Get a notebook and pen. Evaluate your handwriting. Identify some areas that need improvement. Look for inspiration. Set aside some time.

Q: This can limit sensory stimuli for your child. Some autistic people prefer to have their backs to busy areas, while others prefer to have their backs to a wall (to avoid surprises). Let your child choose which side they'd like to be in. Especially in an unfamiliar place, an autistic child may attempt to run away (especially if stressed) or simply wander away, distracted by the novel surroundings. Keeping a close eye on your child will help lessen the likelihood of this occurring.  Seating can prevent eloping. In a booth, have your child sit next to the wall, with other people in between them and the restaurant. People in between them and the exit will prevent eloping, and make them easier to catch if they start running. Notice signs of stress. If your child is getting overwhelmed or ready to run, a five-minute walk in the parking lot may help. This way, your child can have a much needed break, while supervised by an adult for safety. If you know your child is hungry, order an appetizer immediately—this will lessen the chance of a meltdown occurring. Make sure that the appetizer works with your child's sensory issues. A lot of autistic children have no interest in lingering after a meal. Leaving quickly is the best plan, and will make things a lot easier on both you and your server if you have to leave abruptly.  If other children eat more slowly than your autistic child, have something for the child to do. Maybe they'd like to play with a tablet, or take a walk outside with an adult who has finished eating. Get takeout boxes if you need to leave early. That way, you can finish the meal at home. If you are afraid that your child may spill their drink, ask the waiter for a kiddie cup for their drink. Or, bring a sippy cup or other such drink container from home.This will help avoid a huge spill if your child drops their drink or knocks it over. You may hear other customers call you a "bad parent", or roll their eyes at you, but as hard as it may be, it is important to simply ignore them. They may not know enough about autism to realize what your child is going through. Plenty of children, autistic and otherwise, have screaming episodes in public places. It's not fun, but it's normal. This doesn't reflect negatively upon you as a parent. This does happen, so if you or your child notice that the order is missing something, or something is wrong with it, flag down your server. When they take it away, if your child gets upset, explain to them that something was wrong with it, so they are going to fix their food and it will come back. Many autistic children have sensory issues, and a sprinkle of cheese may be as disgusting as if the meal were charred to a crisp. If your child does not like the dish, tell your server. They will most likely be aware that your child is autistic (inform them politely if they are unaware), and they will allow your child to pick a new dish, or have their dish prepared a different way if needed. Whether it be with some simple words of encouragement, or through a tangible reinforcement if your child enjoys receiving them, be sure that you give your child some sort of praise if they made it through the entire restaurant visit.
A: Ask to be seated in a quiet corner, or next to a wall, preferably in a booth. Keep a close eye on your child at all times. Pay attention to when your child is hungry. Ask for the check immediately when you receive your entrees. Know your child's tendency to spill things. Ignore any comments or looks you may get if your child has a meltdown. Be prepared if your child's order goes wrong. Be prepared if your child does not like their food. Praise your child for a job well done if they made it through the entire meal.

Q: Another way to get someone's attention is to make eye contact. This is particularly helpful if you see the girl somewhere like a bar or party. Brief eye contact can send the message that you have interest in this person and would like to talk.  Try to catch the girl's eyes. Glance at her when she's looking in your direction and wait for her to look back. Hold her gaze for about 4 seconds and then look away. Four seconds is long enough to establish a connection. Any shorter may be mistaken for accidental eye contact, and any longer may make things feel awkward. Flashing a winning smile at someone from across the room is a great way to get their attention. While holding the girl's eye contact, offer a quick and warm smile. This will convey you're paying attention to her. You can also try raising your eyebrows slightly while making eye contact. This is a flirtatious gesture that does not read as overtly sexual. This can show the girl you're a friendly, approachable person. She may be more likely to engage you with conversation later on if you raise your eyebrows during eye contact.
A:
Make brief eye contact. Smile. Raise your eyebrows.
