An angular shift error occurs when the sights are not properly aligned. You can usually determine if you are making a consistent angular error based on the placement of your bullet in the target.  If the bullet hits below the center of the target, the top of the front sight may have shifted below the tops of the back sight posts. If the bullet hits above the center of the target, the top of the front sight may have shifted above the tops of the back sight posts. If the bullet hits right of center, the front sight might be closer to the right side of the back sight. If the bullet hits left of center, the front sight might be closer to the left side of the back sight. Parallel shift errors occur when your sights are properly aligned, but your hand moves as you fire. Holding the pistol still results in the most accurate shot, but typically, parallel shift errors do not disrupt your aim as much as angular shift errors do. Parallel shift errors almost always result from your wrist either breaking up or breaking down, so the placement of your shot will usually be either just above center or just below it, respectively. Shift errors are not the only problems you might encounter. The placement of your bullet in the target could also indicate a handful of other problems.  If the bullet hits out of center and closer to your dominant side, you could be squeezing your thumb or using too much trigger finger. Similarly, if it falls to the other side of the center, you might be using too little trigger finger. If it falls to the lower right for right-handed shooters, or vice versa for left-handed shooters, you could be tightening your grip while pulling the trigger. If it falls to the lower left, you could be tightening your fingers or jerking the trigger. If the bullet lands to the upper right for right-handed shooters, or vice versa for left-handed shooters, you might be anticipating recoil in your shot. If it goes to the upper left, you might be anticipating recoil or lacking follow through.

Summary: Identify angular shift errors. Pick out a parallel shift error. Spot grip and handling errors.


Don't show your space to anyone or it won't be secret anymore.  If you have siblings, try to lock your door to keep them from your secret space. If that’s not an option, talk to your parents about helping you keep the secret space yours. If someone does happen to discover your space, talk to them and explain that it is your secret personal area—they will most likely understand. Now that you’ve created a secret space, be sure to use it as you intended. You’ve worked hard and now you can sit back and appreciate it.  Keep it clean. If your secret space gets cluttered, it won’t be comfortable. Be sure to keep it clear so that you can relax. Keep it stocked with refreshments, new magazines, or anything else you might need in your secret space. While you may be in a very busy house, try to keep your secret space a spot where you can focus (even if you’re focusing on relaxing).  If you chose a spot with a window, use a lightweight curtain to block out excessive heat or outside noises. Keep headphones in your secret space to block out the noisiness in the house. Consider leaving your phone out of your secret spot. If it’s there, keep it on silent. Now that you have your secret spot, you can spend a lot of time in it, but don’t become a hermit. Spending all of your time alone is not good for you.  Interacting with family and neighbors keeps you safe, healthy, and happy. If you start spending all of your time alone in your secret space, they may start to worry. Your secret space is yours and you don’t have to answer any questions about it. They will respect your privacy as long as you continue to be a part of their lives.

Summary: Remember, it is only for you. Enjoy your space. Avoid distractions. Keep a balance.


Before you shop for a door, you’ll need to know the exact size of the opening that the door needs to fill. Use a tape measure to measure the full width of the hole. Measure from stud to stud.  Measure both the width and height of the opening. Write down these measurements so you can refer to them when shopping for a door. Before you measure, make sure to remove any boards or shims that may have been added to make the old door fit. Visit a home-supply store—such as Home Depot or Lowe’s—and look through their selection of glass doors. Make sure to bring your tape measure with you to confirm that the door you choose will fit well within the opening in your house. Glass door frames can be made of various materials, including wood, vinyl, or aluminum.  The material and quality of the door will determine its cost. A simple 6 feet (1.8 m) glass door will cost around $300. A pre-hung glass door (which is the easiest type to install) will range between $1,000 and $4,000 USD. Pre-hung sliding glass doors can be installed as a single unit. You won’t need to assemble the frame before installing it in your wall. At this point, the opening that you pulled the old door out of will likely be cluttered and rough. Remove any leftover nails or torn material. You may also need to adjust the opening. Use a carpenter’s level to make sure that the top, bottom, and side frames of the opening area all level.  If any aren’t level, you can use a shim to even out the door frame. If the frame is slightly too large for the sliding door you purchased, nail in one or more strips of 1x3 plywood to adjust the size of the opening.

Summary: Measure the opening for your glass door. Purchase a sliding glass door. Clean up and adjust the opening.


If you have a push-up bra with a significant amount of padding, you may not need to add much to fill out the cup. Crumple up some tissues to fill in the gaps, and use tape to hold them in place. Or, fold up a pair of socks for a little extra padding. Since there may be a gap between your chest and the top of the bra cup, these options work best if you’ll be wearing an outfit that conceals your bra. If you want to lightly lift the fleshy parts of your chest, slide a silicone push-up insert into the bottom of your bra cup. Then lift your bust up and over it so it sits on top. Or, if you’d like to add some depth to your chest, place a foam pad on the inside of your bra cup. These can be soft and flexible or stiffer with molded push-up components. Foam inserts are sometimes called “cookies,” while silicone inserts are often called “chicken fillets” or “chicken cutlets.” Breast forms come in a variety of shapes and sizes; some are designed to look like natural breasts with nipples, while others simply create the desired breast shape. Choose a set with an adhesive backing if you want them to stick to your skin for a secure fit. Alternatively, tuck the breast forms into the cups of a standard bra or slide them into a pocket bra for more support.  Try symmetrical breast forms for versatility with any type of bra. Consider wearing an asymmetrical set (i.e. a left and right breast form) if you desire a more natural breast shape.  Choose silicone breast forms with cleavage for a full-looking, exposed bust. These consist of 2 breast forms connected by a silicone chest piece that extends up to your neck. Choose one that matches your skin tone.
Summary: Stuff your bra with socks or tissues for a small amount of padding. Use foam or silicone inserts inserts to enhance your natural chest. Select a pair of silicone breast forms for a larger bust.
