It may seem hard to bring up the conversation. You can ease into a more serious conversation by saying something like, “There’s something important that I want to tell you because you mean a lot to me. ” Also include some reassurance with a statement that indicates your comfort with your own bisexuality. Say something like, “I’m happy and healthy!” Consider telling your siblings one at a time. This route offers you the chance to take a different approach with each of the people you hope to share the news with....

Keep a close watch on your sauce as it thickens. Stir the caramel constantly. Otherwise you’ll be left with a batch of too-think caramel. It’s easier to reheat and thicken caramel sauce than to add liquid to make the sauce thinner. If you’re concerned about burning the bottom layer of your cold caramel sauce, start the burner on low heat (2 or 3) until the sauce has started to warm up....

Try to memorize small things each day. Write a grocery list and commit it to memory. Memorize a small passage from a poem or book. Wait an hour and see how much you can recall of what you’ve committed to memory.

If you’re removing Scotch tape, you should be able to remove the tape quickly without leaving much residue that will need to be removed. Use your fingernail or a knife to remove the tape, then wipe the surface down with a clean cloth. If you’re removing masking tape, it’s likely that some sticky residue will be left over on the glass, though the tape itself should be fairly easy to remove....

If the pee is on a hard floor, you can simply mop or towel it up. A wet/dry vacuum is also a great option for getting up the excess urine without forcing it deeper into your carpet or furniture. If you’re washing a carpet, try using a commercial enzyme cleaner instead. Look for a cleaner designed to eliminate urine or pet odors. If you can still see or smell the urine, go over the stain again....

If you have nothing else, use a paper plate. Make sure the plate doesn’t have a plastic coating on the surface. Never use plastic containers. When microwaved, these containers can leak hazardous chemicals into your food. [1] X Research source If you have more than two or three pieces of pizza you should plan to microwave them in batches. If you microwave a lot of pieces at once they won’t heat through properly and you’ll have to eat cold, rubbery pizza!...

For example, if your friend asks you to go to a party or event and you don’t want to, don’t say, “No, I don’t feel like it. ” Try something like, “Thanks for inviting me, but that’s not really my scene. ” For example, a good, concise response would be, “I wish I could help, but unfortunately my schedule is already jam-packed. ” Try something like, “I’m flattered that you asked me, but I can’t this time....

This is another easy way to search for diamonds, if you want to use tools. All you need is a “box” sifting screen with small mesh (available for rent at the Park)! Sift your dirt over one area so you don’t re-sift the same dirt again. Don’t sift too much dirt at once. The more dirt you put into your screen, the more rocks you’ll have left. You don’t want to cover a diamond up with lots of other materials!...

Fasten the section by twisting it up into a knot and securing it with a medium-sized butterfly clip. Cut the hair. The order you will cut the sections will vary based on the style you are trying to achieve. Some require you to cut from the back up, while others may dictate you cut from the front to the back. Secure the middle section by twisting it and attaching a butterfly clip....

Widths vary, but opt for a belt that is at least as wide as your palm. It should sit at the narrow part of your waist, not on your hips. [2] X Research source Narrow belts tend to slip down the hips, forcing you to pull at them all day. Just like bras, there’s no one-size-fits-all garter belt, and being able to adjust the straps is key to a good fit....

If you’re wearing a beret for fashion, there is really no limit to how it may be worn (as long as it’s sitting on top of your head). The most popular casual method of wearing a beret is to wear it without a fold and tilted so that the brim sits diagonally across your forehead. Usually casual berets need no shaping other than fuzz removal. [1] X Research source Excess material will be folded and draped towards the right side of your head....

You can find cardboard boxes at most stores that sell mailing supplies. If you’d like to save on shipping costs, visit your local post office to see if you can use any specially priced boxes. Some companies sell insulated shipping boxes, which come with both a cardboard box and a styrofoam carton. Instead of styrofoam, you may use some kind of recyclable foam material, but it still needs to be at least one inch thick....

You can also use a special sprouting bag instead of the original jar. Place the sprouting seeds into the sprouting bag and hang it over a sink or other area to allow draining. Continue to rinse every five hours or so. Keep in mind that sunflowers planted in pots will not grow as big as sunflowers planted in the ground. Sunflowers are drought-tolerant, but you should ensure they get plenty of water while they establish their roots....

Lunchtime is a great opportunity to work on an assignment and so is the commute home, as long as someone else is driving. If you have a part-time job, take advantage of the slow moments. If your instructor gives you time during the class period to study, take advantage of it. It is especially important to make good use of study halls if you are an athlete. [2] X Research source...

Avoid scrubbing your face with a rough washcloth, sponge or loofah. This will only irritate the skin and cause pimples to become even more inflamed. Washcloths may also harbor bacteria, which you want to avoid putting in contact with your face. Even though you may be tempted to wash your face more than twice a day if you’re suffering from pimples, be aware that this will not necessarily help your skin....

Let’s see what we can do about that. Why Does Steam Use So Much Memory? Steam is made up of several components. Its most popular components are its download manager and games list, but it has several other features, and all of these other features run off the Steam Client WebHelper. This is essentially an internet browser that Steam manages. Every store page, friends list, and chat window create a new Steam Client WebHelper instance....

It’s normal to roll over during your sleep, so don’t get upset if you wake up on your stomach. Your body may just be comfortable sleeping this way. Try meditating for 10-15 minutes. You can simply focus on your breath or follow a guided meditation. Write your thoughts in a journal. Read a book. Do a few yoga poses. Try masturbating right before bed to help lower the chances of a wet dream....

If you know how to swim, you should be able to escape and swim back to shore at an angle away from the current. However, if you have any doubt about your ability to break free of the current, call and wave for help. Most rip currents weaken about 50 to 100 yards (46 to 91 m) from shore. Once the current has begun to subside, you’ll have an easier time swimming out of it....
