How to tell if a girl likes you

Or: How I showed my crush my feelings for him about ten billion times this morning
She rambles
This is really obvious. If she starts rambling to you about the most random things, she’s definitely into you. Well, unless she talks too much. If you know she’s shy and then starts saying something like, “Hey, that’s a cool shirt, like, my dad has one like it, but not that you remind me of my dad or anything, you actually remind me of (etc.)” then she really really likes you. I’m surprised she hasn’t confessed her love to you yet.
She’s concerned when she hears you have/had a girlfriend
Also obvious. The second you say “girlfriend” and she’s all curious and/or disappointed, she definitely likes you. Or cares about you. But most likely likes you. If she asks, “What’s she like?”, she wants to know what kind of girls you prefer and may or may not try to be like her. If you had one and she asks “Why did you dump her?” she wants to know what not to do in a relationship with you. If you mention that she broke up with you, then she wants to get you and comfort you the second you think you’re over your ex-girlfriend. And if she asks a lot of questions about your (ex-)girlfriend, she’s subconsciously cataloguing her so when she becomes a robot one day, the first person she’ll kill is her.*
You catch her staring at you
She’s either totally content with letting you know her feelings, or totally oblivious to what she’s doing and subconsciously likes you. She’s also a potential clingy girlfriend. (Probably.)
The second a teacher says “pair up” or implies that everyone should be in groups of 2, she looks at you
She will then look away and blush, then frown a little. A couple things have happened: she considered you, thought it was a great idea, but then thought it would make her feelings obvious and you’d most likely say no and have a different partner. Plus she’d never have the courage to ask you,.
When you come in a room and she sees you and freezes, then quickly looks away
You made her heart skip a beat and she’s probably really excited or nervous that you’ve arrived.
* = But before she does, she’ll remember that you used to like said girl and values your feelings over hers by not killing her
How to read in a car without getting nauseous

Going somewhere but can’t put your book down?
No?
Well, I have some great news for you nerds who read while in a car! You can read in a car without getting nauseous!
Okay, you might get a little nauseous, but with a little practice, you’ll be able to read without getitng dizzy and/or throwing up no problem. It works for me.
Take breaks
Occasionally put your book down every few minutes and rest your eyes. Don’t read and never take your eyes off the book. You will for sure get dizzy. If the chapters in your book are short, you can take breaks between chapters. If not, just take a break every page or so.
Stop reading when the car is about to stop
You rock back and forth when the car stops, which can make you nauseous if you’re reading a book. So pay attention to when you feel the car is about to stop, and take your eyes of your book. Just doing this can cut down most of the diziness you feel.
Eat salty foods
Salty foods gets rid of the nausea for me, but if it doesn’t work for you, bring some food that does. Sometimes just smelling the food makes it better, if you’re worried about your health. So if you feel like throwing up every time you read in a car, some food might help.
Look out the window
According to Wikihow, this helps your body cope with movement
.
Cold Air and Gum
Some cold air on your face feels nice and helps get rid of the nausea. Gum helps, too. My brother and I chew gum whenever we feel carsick.
… and those are all my tips. :D If you have any other tips, I’d love to hear them. (Yes, I’m a nerd who reads in the car. Don’t mock me! T_T)
