Q: There’s no reason to be shy about going out to eat alone. In fact, it can be pretty nice to go wherever you want, order whatever you want, drink whatever you want, and have a whole table to yourself.  If you feel like being a bit social, sit at the bar to eat. People sitting at the bar tend to be friendlier and more open--and to have better stories.  Go to one of your favorite restaurants and order the meal you’ve been craving. Bring a book along if you’d like, or enjoy your meal while people-watching. If your house is usually full of people waiting to use the bathroom, take this time to spend as long as you want in the bathroom. Use all of your favorite bath and body products. Draw a bath and pour in some bubble bath or your favorite essential oil. Light candles, turn on music, and allow yourself to relax or have a leisurely shower. Make an appointment at a salon or walk in for a spur-of-the-moment treat. If you don’t want to spend money on a manicure, give yourself one at home. Don’t just paint your nails, give yourself the works: file your nails, soak them, and use several coats of polish. If you still have time and supplies left over, give yourself a pedicure, too. Having time all to yourself offers a great opportunity for sleep--take advantage!  Indulge in an afternoon nap, or go to bed as early as you want. If you’re alone in the morning, sleep in or wake up, make breakfast and go back to bed. Breakfast in bed!
A: Take yourself out for a meal. Take a long bath or shower. Get your nails done. Get some sleep.

Q: Suggest the possible cause of your illness casually.  You could say, “I think I’ve got this stomach bug that’s going around” or “I don’t think my breakfast agreed with me today.” Make it clear that it’s urgent, but be very respectful.  It’s a good idea to go in the middle of class instead of during a bell change. That way there will be fewer people in the bathroom, and there won’t be any need to fake throwing up for. Tell them you think it would be a good idea to go to the nurse. Make it clear that it’s in their best interest to send you to the nurse, because you might throw up in class if you don’t go. There’s no need to be especially graphic. Don’t say, “I’m going to hurl all over my books if I don’t leave now.” Say, “I was sick in the bathroom just now, and I’m afraid that I’ll be sick again soon.” Be sure to tell her that you’ve already been sick in the bathroom once. Try to look as pathetic as possible. You may want to to suggest to her that you have a stomach virus or mention some food that didn’t agree with you.  Be sure to stick to a consistent story. If you told your friends you think you have a virus, don’t change to food poison when you see the nurse. If you have a stomach virus, odds are you also have some other aches and pains. Be careful not to describe any symptoms that the nurse could easily disprove.   You might say you have pain in your muscles and joints. You could claim that you’ve been very tired and lethargic all day. You might also say you have a headache.
A: Tell your friends you aren’t feeling well. Ask your teacher to go to the restroom. Come back to class, and tell your teacher that you still don’t feel well. Tell the nurse your stomach hurts. Throw in a few other symptoms as well.

Q: You need to have an idea to have a business. Figure out what parts of the economy are doing well and focus on them. You could, on the one hand, provide a physical service for people, like arranging for the local purchase and delivery of groceries. Or, on the other hand, you could provide a virtual service like consultation or editing. The most successful internet startup ventures today are SEO consulting, business coaching, selling specialized goods as a retailer, social media consulting, and web design. Your idea may seem like something profitable, but until you see who else is doing it, you won't know how you will fit in. Use statistical data offered by government agencies such as the Bureau of Labor Statistics as well as third party sources to find similar businesses. Do your own word-of-mouth interviews, surveys and tests to see what people would spend money on. See this for a detailed guide to the process. Just as in traditional business, internet businesses can profit greatly from a well thought out business plan that will help attract capital, guide leaders in starting and growing a business, and present this fledgling enterprise to the outside world as something legitimate with great potential.  A business plan helps you structure your company and convince potential investors that you have a viable company. Look at the sector your product fits into, and design a marketing strategy. Structure your company according to this strategy. Write out projected expenditures and cash flow. For a more detailed guide to creating a business plan, see this guide. A detailed business plan should help present viable finance for a business. It should also attract interest and enthusiasm by offering investors and others a vibrant look at the potential for what the business is offering. A business plan gives new businesses what they need to survive: attention and the presentation of potential success. Putting together a projected budget will force you to think through your business model. It will also show investors that you know how to run a business. Start by making a list of all possible expenditures and all possible sources of income. Then calculate how much each should cost you. You and your new best friend will be responsible for every aspect of business until you are big enough to expand. That means that you don’t want someone who has the same skill set as you. If you are better with creating and maintaining the website, pick someone with exciting business ideas. If you can’t do basic coding and website building, find someone who can do that in addition to helping run a business.
A: Decide what you will do. Do market research. Have a concrete business plan. Look at the little details too. Choose a complementary partner(s).

Q: The text tool will create text on a new layer. Begin selecting the text tool and then drawing your text box in much the same way the marquee tool is used. It will be easiest to create a new text box/text layer for each line of text you intend to use, as this will allow you better control over the alignment and space between lines. Choose your font, either from the Text menu or the options listed at the top of the window. Remember to choose a font which is appropriate for the image as well as the content of the text. You can change the size of the font using the text options at the top as well. You can convert the text to a path, if you wish to further distort the shape and size of the text. This will make each individual letter into a contained shape. Keep in mind that this can only be undone using the history menu. To convert the text to a path, right-click the layer on which it appears and select “convert to shape”. You can from there choose the direct selection tool to make many different changes to the objects you have created.
A:
Use the text tool. Choose your font. Convert to paths.
