INPUT ARTICLE: Article: While scientists do not understand what causes UC, this disease appears to have a genetic disposition that may be triggered by factors in our environment.  Think of UC as being like hay fever.  If you have hay fever, you have a genetic disposition that will cause you to develop itchy eyes and a runny nose if exposed to pollen.  If you’re never exposed to pollen, you’ll never develop the symptoms.  If you are, you will.  You certainly didn’t cause the pollen, or the genetic disposition!  The same principle applies to UC. Some people will go months or even years without suffering any symptoms of UC.  Proper treatment will extend these periods of remission.  Only five to 10 percent of UC patients experience UC symptoms all the time, and fortunately even acute sufferers have treatment options. You’ll likely spend most of your life in remission.  Properly treated, this is not a life-threatening illness.  You can expect to enjoy relationships, marriage, children, a career, and other joys of life.

SUMMARY: Remember that you did not cause your UC. Recognize that you may experience “flare-ups” followed by periods with few symptoms. Take comfort in knowing the vast majority of UC sufferers live normal lives.

People with features traditionally thought of as masculine can tweeze their eyebrows for a more feminine shape. People with features traditionally thought of as feminine should allow their brows to grow out naturally, or brush their brows upward for a bushier, boyish look. Fill in your brows but stick to their natural shape. Concentrate on the outer ends of your brows. A neutral eye shadow can help blur the gender lines. Choose a neutral color of matte shadow or amp up your look with a glossy shadow in a color close to your skin tone. Black eyeliner will make your eyes pop. Line either just the top or the top and bottom, but avoid the cat-eye look as it is traditionally feminine. Choose liquid eyeliner for a bold look or pencil eyeliner for a more subtle look. Glossy, subtle lips are a great way to get the androgynous look. Swipe on a clear gloss or choose a rosy gloss to add some color. You can also wear a tan or beige lipstick for a truly neutral look. A chiseled jaw is often seen as a masculine feature. Sweep a matte bronzer along your jawline to add definition. Avoid highlighting traditionally feminine features, such as high cheekbones. Highlight your cheekbones with a shimmery blush. Experiment with contouring to create a slender neck and less-defined jaw line.

SUMMARY: Use foundation and concealer minimally. Go for a bold brow. Choose neutral eye shadow. Add eyeliner. Wear a neutral lip gloss. Play up your masculine features if you have features traditionally thought of as feminine. Play up your feminine features if you have traditionally masculine features.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The worst thing you can do in a conflict is reacting right away. If your sister hurt your feelings, pause before reacting. Take a few deep breaths and try doing something like counting to five. This will prevent you from blowing up at your sister, potentially making the situation worse. Use your words to handle conflict. Do not scream and yell, as you are not really communicating. Never resort to physical violence, as this will only make things worse. You also do not want to accidentally hurt your sister during an argument.  Let your sister know that she has hurt or upset you. Use simple language to explain the unacceptable behavior instead of getting angry in return. For example, say something like, "Ella, do not pinch me. Pinching hurts." This is more effective than yelling or pinching back. Certain topics may simply cause arguments. Maybe your sister dislikes discussing something at school. Maybe there's an issue you simply disagree on. If certain topics tend to only lead to conflict, you may be better off avoiding them. No one sees eye-to-eye on everything all the time. If you're having trouble managing an issue with your sibling, talk to a parent. Your parents want you and your sister to get along. They will be happy to mediate if the two of you are having an issue.  Do not bring it up in a negative way. You do not want your parents to think you're being argumentative or mean. Present yourself as wanting to resolve the issue rather than get your parents on your side. For example, say something like, "Dad, I'm having trouble with Sophie lately. Can you give me some advice on how to talk to her about how she read my diary?"

SUMMARY:
Think before reacting. Express yourself with words. Avoid topics that lead to conflict. Talk things out with a parent.
