INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Once your bun is finished, you can tackle the bottom section of hair. You certainly don’t need to use a curling iron or a straightener on the bottom section, but you can if you want. Skipping the hot tools is the easiest option, and rocking your hair au natural. The great thing about this look is that it is messy and carefree, so it doesn’t require meticulously curled or straightened hair. Use a comb or brush to tease the underside of this hair at the root. This will add volume to this section, so that it doesn’t hang limply. Since you added volume and texture to the top section, you want to make sure the bottom section has it as well. Once your top knot is perfected and your hair is styled, secure it in place. Spray your favorite hairspray, focusing on the actual top knot. Don’t spray much on the hair left down, because you want that hair to look soft and touchable. Use a handheld mirror to double check that everything looks good from the back, and enjoy all of the compliments you’re sure to get on your half up top knot!

SUMMARY: Style the bottom section of hair. Tease the hair left down. Add hair spray.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Even though you're young and not going through the best of times it is important to stay positive. Positivity will help you change your mind set about the situation, which can help to reduce your stress levels.  Sometimes spending too much time on social media (Facebook, Instagram, SnapChat, Vine, Twitter, etc) can lead to comparing ourselves to others and feelings of jealously or low self-esteem. If you feel negative emotions when you are online or on social media, try taking a 15 minute break (or more if you can do it) and focus on doing something positive (such as drawing, talking with a friend in person, or riding your bike). Use positive self-talk, such as, “I have been successful with my efforts in the past. If I put my mind to passing this test, I can do well.”  Have a positive attitude by changing your bad thoughts. Some examples of bad thoughts are, “I am going to fail. I can’t do this.” Try to think different thoughts like, “I am going to try by best, and I know I can get through this.” See the difference? Say the happy thoughts to yourself when you are feeling stressed. Focus on what you do well instead of what you do wrong. You could draw a flower, and on the petals write positive things about yourself or what you do, like: I am loving, I tried my best, and I am nice to animals.  Avoid saying bad things out loud. Stop using words like “won’t,” “can’t,” “always,” and “never.” Try instead to use the words “will,” “can,” “most of the time,” and, “not very often.” Mindfulness meditation can help lower stress over time. Mindfulness is about focusing on what you are doing or feeling right now. Stop and notice what is happening in this moment.  First, notice the feeling you are experiencing. What does it feel like in your body? Does it feel tense, is your heart beating fast, do you have butterflies in your stomach? Next, name the emotion. Are you stressed, overwhelmed, anxious? Then, accept the emotion as natural and normal. The more you accept your emotion the less power it will have over you. You can say to your emotion, “I accept you, stress. Even though I don’t like how you feel, I know that you may happen sometimes and I will learn to deal with you.” Try using bubbles to practice deep breathing. This can help to calm you down. Try to slowly blow one big bubble; this helps you learn how to use your deep breathing in a fun way! Writing down your feelings and thoughts can help you work through your problems and get your emotions out instead of keeping them inside of you.  Find a clean paged notebook or diary to write in and write down what you are feeling. Write a letter to the thing that is bothering you such as a math test. Tell the math test how you are thinking and feeling as if the test were a person. You could write something like, “Math test- you make me so stressed out, but I really want to get a good score.” If you don’t like to write you could draw a picture that shows how you are feeling.
Summary: Be positive. Practice mindfulness or meditation. Write about your stress.

Seeing your goals written in an obvious spot can help you commit to them. Place a calendar or dry-erase board in your work area, and write down what you need to accomplish. In a pinch, write your goal prominently in your assignment pad, on an index card, or on a sheet of paper. You may be tempted to hunker down and study for several hours straight, but that's a quick way to lose motivation. Your body and brain need breaks, so take 10 minutes or so to refresh yourself every hour. Go for a walk, grab a snack, or stretch, then get back to work.  During your break, make sure you don't engage in any distracting activities. For example, don't turn on your TV, as you might get interested in what's on and not go back to studying. Similarly, you might avoid getting on social media if you have a tendency to keep scrolling once you've started. Find a natural break in your studies instead of stopping abruptly in the middle of something. It's better to hold off on taking a break for 15 or 30 minutes than to stop and forget what you were doing. Look for ways to relate your studies to your life. Take a stand on an issue in history class, or connect topics in science to your daily experiences. Even if something seems uninteresting, keep an open mind and give it a chance to capture your attention.  When you're interested in a topic, motivating yourself to study it takes a lot less effort. If you just can't get into a subject, do your best to make it fun. For instance, if you love to draw, make diagrams and sketches of the concepts you're studying. If you know there's a treat waiting for you, you'll be more likely to stick with your studies. Incentives for a job well done could include playing video games, watching TV, indulging in a snack, or a splurging on a clothing item or accessory.  Don't be too hard on yourself if you don't accomplish your task, but be sure to reward yourself only when you actually finish. Writing down a specific study goal and reward in your assignment pad can help you stay on target. For instance, write “Task: Review history lecture notes for 2 hours. Reward: Play video games for 30 minutes.” Get together with classmates who take studying seriously and won't tempt you to blow off your work. Quiz each other, take turns explaining concepts, and help each other resist the urge to procrastinate. Explaining concepts to others is a great way to process and memorize information. Studying with others can also help you fill in any gaps in your notes.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Position the blade of the razor where the caulk meets the glass. Apply pressure to the razor and begin scraping off the caulk. Be careful when using the razor, so you don't scratch the glass or cut yourself. Set the hot air gun to a high heat setting and point the nozzle at the trouble area. After a few moments, test the area with the scraper to see if it has softened enough for you to continue. Scrape until the majority of the sealant is gone. If you don't have a hot air gun, a hair dryer on the highest setting will work just as well. Dip the sponge in the rubbing alcohol or mineral spirits and gently wipe the glass.  If there are still large bits of caulk, try applying heat again and go back to scrapping. After all the sealant is removed, dip a cloth in rubbing alcohol to get rid of any cloudiness on the glass.

SUMMARY:
Use the razor to begin scraping the sealant off the glass surface. Apply heat with a hot air gun if the silicone does not come off easily with the razor. Remove any leftover sealant with the rubbing alcohol and sponge.
