Q: If you've just been through a break-up that you didn't initiate, it can feel like your world is spinning out of control. Don't panic. Stay calm and remind yourself that you are strong and you handle whatever life throws at you.  Don't make any rash decisions. You are in a vulnerable state of mind right now, try not to do anything you might regret. If you have your mind set on getting your ex back, that's fine. But allow yourself some personal time to work through your own issues first. After a break-up, it's probably safe to say that you have some demons you need to work out. The best thing you can do is talk to somebody you trust - a friend, a family member, a therapist. With them, you can unleash all the rage, hurt and pent-up tears you have inside. You'll feel much better after.  By talking about the break-up with someone on the outside of the situation, you are free to express every feeling and thought without the risk of doing irrevocable damage to your relationship with your ex. Talking about the break-up will help you to work through your feelings and give you some perspective on the situation. You might start to see matters from a different point of view and understand where your ex was coming from. This understanding and empathy can help you to get back on the right track later. Use this break-up (even if it's only temporary) as a chance to liberate yourself. In a relationship, people tend to over-rely on their partner and forget how to function on their own. Now is your chance to recover your long-forgotten, independent self. You won't regret it.  Go places on your own, meet new people, try new things. Doing things by yourself will allow you to gain confidence and help you to feel whole again. Reconnect with your friends. Many people are guilty of neglecting their friends while in a relationship. Now that you're free to do as you please, take the initiative and organize a girls' night in or out. You'll soon be laughing so hard you'll wonder why you didn't do it more often. You've been through a rough time recently, so take a moment to focus on you and your needs. Do things that make you happy and make you feel good.  Take long baths, get plenty of rest, eat healthily and do some exercise. You'll look and feel better for it. You need to feel good about yourself before you think about re-entering a relationship. Have you been complaining about your job for the last year? Quit and find something better! Been talking about taking up a new hobby or starting a new exercise regime for forever? Now is the time! Embrace this opportunity to improve yourself and become the best you that you can be.  Many people claim that a hot new body is the best way to recapture your ex's attention. But don't just do it for him, do it for yourself. Exercise and healthy eating will release the good mood hormones and will give you more energy and motivation to get through your day. Getting a new job or taking up a long talked-about hobby will give you a new outlet to focus your attentions on and leave you less time to mope about the break-up. Hopefully your ex will also be impressed by your new go-get-em attitude. Just because you have your heart set on getting back with your ex doesn't mean you can't have a little fun in the meantime. Get yourself all dolled up and go out and flirt to your heart's content. If nothing else, you will be reminded that you are an attractive and interesting person and that you have plenty of other options if your relationship doesn't work out as planned.  Letting your ex see you with another guy can arouse feelings of jealousy and desire in your ex. This might make him realize that he wants you back and help you in your quest. Be careful with this tactic, however - if your ex feels that you're perfectly happy with someone else, he might move on too.
A: Stay calm. Talk to someone. Be independent. Take care of yourself. Work on improving yourself. Put yourself out there.

Q: Whether the person you are trying to communicate with can understand a single word you are saying or not, simple gestures can often be helpful in reinforcing meanings or conveying basic ideas. Use gestures such as pointing at objects that are almost universally understood.  Using your hands to indicate size, location, and so on can be very helpful. Be careful, not all gestures are universal. Some common gestures in America have very different meanings in other places. For example, the common sign for "ok" or "perfect" made by touching the tips of your thumb and forefinger is an offensive gesture in Greece and Turkey. So keep it simple! While it might seem silly, sometimes you can communicate by acting out what you are trying to communicate, like in a game of charades. People might laugh at you, but if you can get your point across, it's probably worth it. For example, if you are trying to find a good place to eat, you might act out the motion taking some bites with a fork, then rub your belly and and make a contented sound, such as "Mmmmm." If you're carrying a notepad and pen or pencil, you may be able to communicate effectively by drawing things. Looking for the bus station? Try doing a quick sketch of a bus. You can pass the pad off to the other person and let them respond using a picture too, if that helps. If you have a smart phone and access to the internet, there are numerous translation apps you can use to make conversation easier. Many of these allow you to simply talk into the phone and will translate what you've said to the language of your choice. Some of these apps are free. It's a good idea to download one before going on a trip somewhere where English isn't spoken.
A: Use gestures. Act it out. Draw a picture. Use an app.

Q: If the front brakes have been squealing loudly, you may need pads only. If the car or brake pedal has been shaking when braking, you'll need to have the rotors resurfaced (called "turning"), or replace them.  If the car pulls to one side while braking, but stays straight otherwise, you may need calipers. This is a sign of uneven wear of your brake pads caused by uneven pressure in your brake lines. If the brakes have a grinding noise, this means rotors are done, spent, wasted, or whatever you want to call it, just replace them. There are two bolts that hold the caliper to the pad bracket, and two bolts that hold the pad bracket to the steering knuckle. You may need both SAE and Metric sizes of wrenches and sockets, as well as bleeder screw wrenches. Also, you may need a set of hex (ALLEN) or star (TORX) key wrenches or a hex or star bit socket set. Consider using line wrenches to remove calipers. Theses wrenches have a better bite and reduce the chances of rounding off hex nuts fitting on the hose end. You can always return what you don't use (keep your receipt and boxes and parts clean/undamaged). If you get caught without something while the car is apart, you may not have transportation to go buy anything.
A:
Consider the symptoms of the brakes; for example: Determine the parts and tools you'll need. Buy more parts than you think you'll need.
