Stay Green!

You know, a lot of people say " Take care of the earth!" But then you turn right around and see them smoking a cigarette. People say, "Don't pollute the earth!" But then you see them get right into their car and drive off, gas coming out the car.

Well, i've finally had enough with this fake I love the earth stuff. And i'm going to do something about it!

Here are ten tips for staying green!




Step
1
Remind the politicians that you have a vote and a voice about the environment. Write your politicians and tell them how important the environment is to you and to your children. Let the politicians know that you are a registered voter and that you vote for the environment (if you are not - then register to vote).
Step
2
It is great to talk about how important the Earth's environment is to you; but it is more important to put words into action. Some actions on our part are very simple and effective such as: Put on a sweater and socks and turn down the heat in the winter (even a degree or two will make a difference in the heating bill). Adjust the heat when you are out of the house.
Step
3
Many grocery stores sell reusable bags (usually 99 cents), buy them and use them.
Step
4
Turn off the lights when you are not in the room (this is an easy one that is quickly forgotten). Also, unplug your appliances when not in use; even when not in use they can be an "energy sink" just by being plugged in.
Step
5
Plant a tree or other plants. You might want to think about raising some edible plants (help the environment, save money on food, and feed healthy food to your family - what could be better)
Step
6
Use refillable bottles for water. Bottled water is a huge culprit to having a clean environment. Stop buying all of those water bottles that fill up our land-fills. If you need special water, buy a water filter.
Step
7
Reuse what you can, like boxes for mailing and padded envelopes can have several uses in them. Be sure to black out the previous addresses and remove the used stamps.
Step
8
Plan your trips and combine as many errands into an outing as possible. See if you can carpool to work, or take a bus; or ride a bike to work.
Step
9
Use natural cleaners whenever possible like lemons and baking soda. It is healthier for the environment as well as for your family.
Step
10
Pay your bills online and save a tree and 42 cents on postage.

Boy meets Girl

It's typical.
Boy meets girl, boy falls in love with girl.
Boy tries to get girl, girl's not interested.
Boy tells girl how he feels, girl accepts.
Boy does something that girl doesn't like, girl breaks up with boy.
Boy tries to apologize to girl, girl's too stubborn to accept.
Girl finally accepts, girl apologizes, boy and girl are happy.

Happily Ever After.


It's in almost EVERY Romance movie you've seen.

Right?

School office at AMS.

Being in the school office is like a torture chamber! Today the workers were talking about whether they liked their chicken tender, or crispy. I had to hold myself back from laughing! And to think that only yesterday they were talking about how much their beauticians charged them...

Confessions of a runaway actress

I have this great idea for a book or movie! It's called: Confessions of a runaway actress! It's about a girl who is tired of the acting biz, and wants to quit. But her mom won't let her. So she runs away to new hampshire, where her great aunt Derana and Great uncle Sam live. Meanwhile, her mom and manager are looking for her, and start to develop a close relationship. Finally, they find her, quit the biz, and her mom and manager get married.
