Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

~InoShikaChoF:iconInoShikaChoF: reports, 11h 16s ago
Well, I've been starting to recycle ever since. Some easy tips for people to help (and guess what? It's barely even hard to do!):

Tip #1: Go recycle at school or start an election thing with bottles, cans, metal, and paper!

Tip #2: Try taking a 1-5 minutes shower in cold water! You don't need hot water to wipe off the bacteria and stuff, all you need to do is scrub really good. Besides, the good part is it saves your water bill, saves water, and makes your hair softer!

Tip #3: Ask your parents or guardians if you can change at least some of your lightbulbs to florescent. (ppssstt, if they say no, I'd usually write a persuasive essay haha!)

Tip #4: Instead of riding with your mom or dad everyday to work or something, try riding the bus, walking, or carpooling. Or if a store is near you or the park, etc. you can take a nice jog or something.

Tip #5: Don't use all lights at once! Try turning things off once in awhile, especially at day!

Tip #6: If you want wind on a windy day, then just open all windows. If it doesn't help, then you can try turning on at least 1 fan.

Tip #7: Plant, plant, plant those flowers or trees or anything!

Hopefully, everyone does this and if you have any questions, go to my page and I'll try and answer them! :D I haven't really done all these, but I'm putting it up because I saw it in magazines and everything. Alot of people have helped too! Like the people in TFK for example!

Here are some places to go to to find out more!

Australian Fathers

*Purelily:iconPurelily: reports, September 1, 2007
Tell me about Your Father.

Rhys sat thoughtfully chewing on his sandwich. "I don't see him a lot." He started. "We have a pretty good relationship, but he's rarely there when I need him. Work keeps him really busy. He's a very moody sort of guy."
"Mum and him are still married, which in some ways, I'm thankful for. But I don't ever think he was cut out for family. I mean we all have our flaws right?

Tell me about Your Father

"Dad?" Emily's eyes instantly lit up. "Dad is the best man to ever walk this planet! Dad and I are always up to something crazy. And he gets me laughing really quickly. He's a bit of a goose - and sometimes he drives me insane. But I love him."

Tell me about your Father

I knew I had hit hard with this question to Sophie. She stared at her shoes.
"That's someone I haven't spoke of in a while..." Sophie's eyes filled with tears as she spoke. "Dad passed away when I was eight. I wish I could scrounge out some really good memories with him, but I was so young..." She chewed her lip. Suddenly, her eyes flashed with anger and sorrow.
"Why'd he have to leave this Earth? I'll never forgive him for leaving his eight year old daughter and his fourteen year old son. Never. I was too Young."

Tell me about your Father

"My Parents are divorced. I see my Dad for two weeks, every break*." Becky said simply as she toyed with her brown hair. "We have a really close relationship - and I get on well with him. In fact, better than Mum. But... I don't see him enough. And.." She hesitated "It's almost like he moved on. He remarried and started a family of his own."

Tell me about your Father

Victoria kicked a pebble with her shoe as we walked near the lake.
"My Dad. No. Wait. I won't call him that." She spat venomously "He's a b*****d. I hate him."
"He's never there for me. He never calls. The divorce papers are being signed right now. And I'm glad! I can't wait to change my last name to my Mother's maiden name!"

It's Father's Day here in Australia. The one day of the year the nation stops to appreciate the Men that raised Us. Our Dads. Biologically, or Adopted.
We all have different views on Fathers. Some Dad's were never there when we needed them. Some Dad's never showed up in our lives. And others should win "Dad of the Year".

My Dad was personally one who loved his work. Our family was run like a business. Do Good, get rewarded with money and carnal gifts. Do Bad - and you got something taken away. We feared him. But he always managed to have our deepest respect.

I can openly admit that he is not the World's best Dad. But he told me this year, all he wanted to be is our Hero. To be someone we admire. And for me, he is. He's taught me to never give up. Never. He's also taught me to stay true to my word - even if it seems impossible to do so.
He's also taught me few of life's little quirks. Like, Humans have a will to survive.

This year has to be the most profound year of my relationship with my Father. He told me one night, when me and him were alone "You're now coming to the age where you'll find out that, like many Heroes. I have flaws. I am not perfect."

We all know a Fatherly figure is pretty important in the lives of Children, especially Males. Scientific reports and tests on this have shown evidence. But do we actually appreciate them as much as We should?

This is the One Day of the Year We really can appreciate our Dads. If We are not Blessed to have Our Fathers, whether he passed on, moved on or We never knew him... Father's Day is the broad word in my dictionary to appreciate an Older Male who has inspired Us, Taught Us things or just been there for Us when We needed someone the most. It doesn't have to be Our biological Father.
This is, His Day



A big thank you to `anjules for helping me find a deviation I stumbled across yesterday that would've made the feature...
