Q: You can use old, scratched up DVDs that no longer, or you can use blank DVDs instead. You can also use CDs instead, but DVDs seem to be more colorful and holographic. Set the DVD down onto a heat-safe surface, or hold it by the edges. Blow dry the DVD using the hottest setting on you hairdryer for a few minutes. A DVD is composed of two layers with a thin, holographic film in the middle. You want the holographic film to stick to the back/clear layer of the DVD, not the front/decorated part. Work slowly and carefully.  The DVD will be hot, so be careful. Discard the top, colored part of the DVD. Save the bottom part with the holographic film. You can cut it into squares, rectangles, triangles, or random pieces. It would be a good idea to have a variety of shapes and sizes, especially if your vase is round. Wash the vase using soap and water, then pat it dry with a clean towel. Wipe down the vase one last time using rubbing alcohol. This will remove any oils that might prevent the glue from sticking.  From now on, try to handle the vase only from the inside. Square or rectangular vases will be easier to work with than round vases. The shape is entirely up to you, however. Your DVD tiles will be a little translucent, so this will help the colors show up better. Apply 2 to 3, thin coats of flat, white spray paint to you vase. Let each layer dry before applying the next. Allow the vase to dry completely before moving on. For a neater finish, line the rim of your vase with painter's tape, then stuff it with newspaper. Remove both once the vase dries. You can use hot glue, but it would be better if you used a glue meant specifically for glass. Start at one end of the vase, and work your way to the other. You can leave small gaps between the tiles, or make them flush against one another. How long this takes depends on what type of glue you used. Hot glue sets up very quickly, but many glass glues take much longer. This is not necessary, but it will help hide any glue and give you a more mosaic effect. You can fill the gaps in using black or white puff paint/dimensional fabric paint. You can also use grout instead.  For a more interesting effect, try silver puff paint/dimensional fabric paint instead. If you are using grout, be sure to mix it according to the instructions on the package. Apply the grout to the vase, then wipe it off with a damp cloth. Again, how long this takes depends on what you used. Both can take several hours to dry, but some types of grout can take several weeks. Once everything is dry, your holographic vase is ready to use! Fill it with water, then add some freshly-cut flowers into it.
A: Get some DVDs. Heat the DVD up using a hairdryer. Use a butter knife to pry apart the DVD. Cut up the DVD into small pieces. Clean your desired vase. Paint your vase with flat, white spray paint. Start gluing the tiles to the vase. Let the glue dry. Fill the gaps in, if desired. Let the puff paint or grout dry before using the vase.

Q: Foam board and reflective paneling are usually the cheaper and lighter options for insulation. If you live in an area without extreme temperatures, install foam board or reflective panelling on your garage door to insulate it.  Foam board is thicker than reflective paneling, so it will be more effective and may also be more expensive. Both foam board and reflective paneling should be available from your local hardware store. While insulation kits are normally more expensive and less customisable than foam board, they are also much more effective. Pick a garage door insulation kit if you need a lot of insulation in your garage, or if you live in an area with that gets very hot or very cold often. Garage door insulation kits will usually come with fiber batting, which will have a much higher R-value than other options. The higher R-value an insulation option has, the more effective it will be at insulating. Some insulation will only have foil on 1 side, meaning you’ll need to choose which way you want it to face. Install it with the foil facing into the door to keep the garage cooler, or install it with the foil facing into the garage to keep more heat inside.  If you install the insulation with the foil facing into the garage, it will reflect the heat inside the garage back and keep the room warmer. Use this method if you live in a colder area. If you install the insulation with the foil facing outward, it will reflect the heat from the sun away from the door, keeping your garage cooler. Use this in an area that gets hotter more often. If you live in an area without extreme temperatures, or you want to be able to regulate the inside of your garage more easily, try and find insulation with foil on each side.
A: Go with foam board or reflective paneling for lighter insulation. Get a garage door insulation kit for more effective insulation. Face the foiled side in the direction you want to reflect the most heat.

Q: Upon arriving to campus, familiarize yourself with the health services on campus. Healthcare on campus is similar to going to the family doctor, but most campuses provide a wider range of health services to students who are transitioning from being a patient to an independent health consumer.  Inquire about potentially free or discounted products for incontinence. Chances are the nurses on campus have encountered students with similar issues, so don’t feel embarrassed about any questions or issues you may have. If you’d like to avoid having to use a public restroom every day, you may want to request a room with a private bathroom. There is no guarantee that the school will be able to honor your request; however, it’s worth asking about.  You’ll need to involve your doctor from home in the process. School guidelines for submitting such a request vary, so check with them once you’ve been admitted to see what their policy is. Don’t wait until you arrive on campus to make the request. It may be that you feel most comfortable having a space of your own. Again, policies will vary by school, but some require that requests be made yearly for such accommodations. You will also need documentation from your family doctor when submitting the request.  Single rooms tend to fill up fast, so make the request early! Consider what living in a single room will mean for your social life. You may also be asked more questions about your medical condition, if you are living alone.
A:
Take advantage of campus health services. Request to have a room with a private bathroom. Inquire about a single dorm.
