In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You use your hands every day, touching all sorts of things.  Whatever you touch is spread to your face, so be sure that you wash your hands whenever necessary. If you have developed a habit of touching your face, avoid any temptation. If you have an itch, for example, use the inside of your clothes instead—just be sure they are clean! The drying saliva ultimately causes chapped lips. Lip balm and regular water consumption will remedy chapped lips.  To stop your lips from peeling and cracking for good, spread a thick layer of petroleum jelly on your lips every night before you go to bed  (Vaseline is a good choice). This is really helpful (especially for those who sleep with the air-conditioning on at night) as petroleum jelly locks in the moisture that's in your lips and keeps your lips from drying out. You can also exfoliate your lips. Rub fine sugar on your lips in gentle, circular motions once a week. Leave it on for about two minutes, and then wash it off. It's best to do this at night right before you apply the petroleum jelly. . Skin around your eyes is very delicate and thin, so rubbing your eyes can cause inflammation, and in severe cases pink eye. Use a tissue or the tip of your finger to relieve any irritation gently—ensure cleanliness. Pimples are clogged pores filled with bacteria, so touching them will irritate your skin and may scar your face.  Over-the-counter products could work, but the best way to clear pimples without the synthetics is to dab a small amount of tea tree oil over the pimple once every day. This can greatly reduce inflammation; thus, making the pimple less noticeable. If you habitually sleep in cold temperatures, turn up the temperature a few notches every day, or until you get used to the accruing temperatures. If you still need the cold, remember to slap on body lotion every night and wear socks on your feet every other day before sleeping.
Summary: Refrain from touching your face. Don't lick your lips. Don't rub your eyes Leave pimples alone!

Come up with a story and set down the general overview without worrying about how to execute it just yet. Include characters, settings, and action.  Keep it short. Animation takes a while. If you’re a beginner, aim for a two-minute video or less. Keep it simple. Save the epic space battle for when you have more experience. Start with a low-key exchange between two characters in a single setting. Watch HISHE’s Super Cafe segments for a great example of a short and simple cartoon. Take the basic ingredients from your treatment and specify exactly what you would like to see onscreen. Include dialogue, sound effects, establishing shots, fade-ins, fade-outs, etc. Specify elements that are essential to your story, especially if you’re working on a team. Keep everyone clear on the specifics. For instance, if at the end your cartoon a character flattens an empty soda can on his forehead, specify from the start that they’re drinking from a can of soda, and not just “drinking soda.” Map your story out visually by drawing panels for each shot, like a comic strip. Keep it simple for time’s sake; use stick-figures for characters and simple geometric shapes for objects. Determine which elements are in the background, middle-ground, and foreground respectively. Also determine which elements will remain static throughout a shot and which will be in motion. Think in terms of labor. More elements in motion will require more time spent animating them. Minimize the amount of work you have to do by recomposing shots to minimize the amount of movement within each one. For instance, if two characters get into a fistfight while others watch on, have the shot focus on the onlookers’ reactions while using sound effects to indicate the brawl off-camera. Draw each element that appears in your storyboard until you’re happy with how it looks. Once you’re happy with it, draw it a few more times for practice until you can replicate your design perfectly.  For each element that moves from panel to panel, draw it from every angle in which it’s seen. For example, draw each character facing the “camera,” then with their back to the camera, and again in profile; if any aspect of their appearance is asymmetrical (like a side part in their hair), draw each side’s profile. Keep your designs simple. Again, think in terms of labor. Refrain from drawing too many details that will need to be replicated again and again. Watch The Simpsons for an example of simple, easy-to-replicate designs. Either record each line separately on your computer or tablet and save it as its own audio file, or record the whole conversation and then splice each line into its own audio file.

Problem: Article: You don't need to rush in the morning just because you spent half an hour picking out your outfit! Go for something between casual and original. But remember you are making first impressions so what you wear kind of dictates a part of your personality, so don't go far outside your comfort zone. Expectations are overrated. You just got out of elementary school, no need to wear makeup or do anything fancy with your hair. If you're not comfortable with it, don't do it! All these middle school girls you see in magazines have makeup on solely for the advertisements. Going your first day with no makeup is quite the bold move itself, as it shows you have confidence in yourself and that you don't need makeup to attract attention! This will wake you up and make you smell fresh and feel great. (Remember some nice deodorant to top it off.) You do not need to haul your whole home with you. All you really need for your first day really is a few snacks, a pencil or two and the basic supplies. Bringing extra pencils and snacks may be helpful, but not necessary. The higher grades don't bite! If you're feeling daring enough, go and try to make some friends who are older than you, as they have gone through your grade and may be able to give you some pointers. Mingle with some other stranger that may be hanging around too. If you can't find a loner to make friends with, go take a look at a map of the school and try to get the know the place, after all, you're going to be spending a few years here.
Summary:
Pick out your outfit the night before. Avoid feeling that you have to wear makeup. Take a shower in the morning. Take only what you need. Seek help from people already in middle school. Make some friends while you're waiting for school to open.
