Article: Before you start, set aside some time in a quiet area. Move through the text slowly, and don’t be afraid to use your dictionary or reference materials if you are lost or confused. You can make your notes on a separate sheet of paper, where you can write general thoughts, questions, or important ideas or plot points. If you own the text, you might want to consider highlighting key phrases or writing notes in pencil in the book. Also, consider the following questions.  What are the important main events? Which characters are involved in the sub-plot and how does the sub-plot relate to the chief plot? What is the relationship of characters to each other? What motivates the characters? What is the central point or lesson of the play? Do not be discouraged if you must re-read passages several times. Even literary scholars often return to key lines. Each time you read a passage you will gain a deeper understanding of what is going on in the play. Remember that reading the play you’ve chosen should be fun. Push on through and keep reading. Don’t let outdated language or references stop you from enjoying the play. When you are finished with a section, take out a fresh sheet of paper and take some more notes.  Write a summary of each scene or act. Record questions or thoughts you may have about the scene. Record any new words, phrases, and their definitions that you looked up during reading.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: It's hard to get to know someone well in a group. If you want to deepen your bond, spend time alone together. Go somewhere you can have a quiet talk, like a coffee shop or a restaurant in the middle of the day.  If you go to school together, just finding a quiet place to sit, away from other students, can be a great way to have a private conversation. It doesn't have to be a "date," and calling it one can put a lot more pressure on things. Just find an excuse to hang out together and talk. Eventually, your conversation needs to deepen beyond talk of school and bands and movies, if you want to get to know someone better. Ask about her opinions on serious issues. Find about what she thinks about. Talk the real talk.  Stay informed about world events and politics. Ask about her opinions regarding recent elections, or talking points. Find out what she cares about. Ask about her anxieties and fears. What kind of a person is she? What keeps her up at night? What does she want to do with her life? Where does she want to be in ten years? What makes her happy? These are important questions that will be good to talk about down the road, if you want to get to know someone.  If you're in school together, talk about your future in school. Is she hoping to go to college? What will she study? What does she want to be beyond school? If you're beyond school, talk about where you'd like to progress in life? Where do you want to live? Are you satisfied in your job? Do you want a family? Kids? Your job isn't to impress a girl, or "wow" her with your accomplishments. Your job is to be real if you want to get to know someone. Be yourself. Conversation is a give and take. Share deeper feelings and anxieties that you have, if you want to her learn about hers. Open up and put yourself out there.  It's possible to go too far with all the questions and come off as kind of a creep. If you never bring anything to the table, but want to know whether or not she wants kids, it won't seem like a conversation. It'll seem like an interrogation. You've got to talk about things, too. Let her ask questions as well, but don't wait for her too. You should both be sharing about an equal amount. But if she wants to talk more, let her. Seeing how someone interacts with their family can be a very telling experience. If you want to really see what someone is like, see how they interact with their parents. See how they treat their brothers and sisters. See how their family gets along.  This might take a while, but if you've been hanging out with someone a lot, coming over for dinner, or a quick hang-out is pretty common. Let her ask you first, don't invite yourself over. Introduce yourself to her family, and see how they react to you as well. Learning about someone's parents can be just as revealing as learning about someone.

SUMMARY: Spend some time together one-on-one. Ask more complicated questions. Talk about the future. Open yourself up, as well. Get to know her family.

To get rid or reduce belly fat you'll need to reduce your weight. To help keep track of your weight loss, weigh yourself regularly.  It's best to weigh yourself about one to two times a week. In addition, try to weigh yourself on the same day of the week, at the same time and wearing the same clothes.  Keep track of your weight in a journal. Seeing your progress can be motivating to help you stay on track. It can also show you any trends where you're gaining weight as well. In addition to weight loss, one of the best ways to measure your progress of losing belly fat to is track your waist circumference. This is the measurement around the smallest part of your waist. As you decrease belly fat, your waist circumference will decrease.  Use a tape measurer to measure the circumference of your waist. Do this by finding the top of your hip bone and your lowest rib and wrapping the tape around your belly between these two points. Continue taking measurements as you diet to track your progress.  A high waist circumference or a measurement over 37 inches (94 cm) indicates you have a large quantity of belly fat and are at risk for chronic diseases.  Remember that muscle weighs more than fat, so if you are trying to lose weight while building muscle, the scale can be misleading. Your best bet is track your progress by measuring your waistline and weight together. Dieting can be hard, especially when you find yourself constantly thinking about food or eating out of boredom. The best way to curb your appetite is to stay busy and indulge in activities that you enjoy.  Making a list of other activities to engage in can help decrease excess snacking or boredom eating. Have this list handy when the desire to eat strikes. Ideas to try include: taking a walk, reading a book, cleaning out a junk drawer, talking to a friend or family member on the phone or doing household chores. If you're feeling hungry and it's close to a planned meal or snack time, have your meal and then move on with other activities. Do not continue to eat or snack. . When we have chronic stress in our lives, our bodies release the hormone cortisol, which causes the body to store extra fat in the midsection. In addition, chronically elevated cortisol levels can increase hunger levels.  Try to eliminate and manage stressful things, people, and situations in your life. Learn how to better manage the stress associated with elements of your life that can't be changed (like your job, for example). Meeting with a life coach or therapist can provide additional ways to manage stress. Remember that while you can't always control your circumstances, you can control the way you react. Mind/body practices like yoga and meditation help you learn how to relax your mind so that you can better cope with stress, anxiety, and depression.
