save money, save the world (part2)

hey, welcome back.

what next?

oh! bills bills bills!

imagine how the increasing of the bills can crack your head!

start it of with reserve the water. just try easy steps like brushing teeth with the tab off. when take shower, turn off the water when you apply the soap and shampoo. you can also reuse the rice water to water the plants or wash toilet. by the way, the rise water is good for your skin! you can also collect rain water. it's very useful for your toilet bowl. don;t you know that everything you flush you spend 14 liters of water?

ok. electric bills? let's start with pc.
ya, pc!
shut down the pc when you are not in use. and, uninstall that screen saver! it's just waste electric. when you off the pc, you can also free from radiation. always turn off the lights and fan when you are not using it. and the enemy of environment is the air-cond! the main reason why the weather is getting hotter because of the air-cond! so, if you are not really hot, just switch to fan. a fan consume lesser electric and you can save your bills.
the kitchen household, the fridge use the most electric. so, always check on your fridge and clean it, don't load too many stuff inside your fridge. and, never keep the hot food inside because it needs more energy to "cool" down the hot food. think before you open the fridge. never open the fridge for no reason. the more times you open it, the more money you need to pay.



well, still can't save money?
there is still something you can save- food!
ya, what you eat! for those who wants to lose weight, it's the best time to eat less. now, everything is very costly, even the price of the food that have become our big problem. so, start saving by cutting down the sugar intake, less sugar in your coffee and cookies. less oil in your food. instead of fried food, the best way to cook is steam, bake of bake. they require less oil. you can save money and at the same time lose weight and be healthy! and, there are no more worries to wear your clothes, you can save even more from buying new clothes!

instead of eating outside, why don't choose to cook at home. it's healthy, clean, safe, and a lot cheaper. try it, and you can find the wonders of eating at home with your family.

finally, plan for what you spend.
it's time to list down all the thins you buy in one month and try to cut out all unnecessary things. you will find out that there are actually many things you buy but not all of them are useful. for girls, check out your closet and make sure you don't buy the clothes or shoes that you will never wear for the second time. write down the things you want to buy before shopping. never blind with the brand of the things. think before you buy , never let big sale and free gift as accuses for buying things. you never realize you will spend even more for that.


well' that's all from me. these are what i can think so far. just try out and i hope it helps you and save world. yes, save our world!
don't waste!
be wise!
think twice before you purchase!

save money, save the world (part1)

nowadays, everyone is complaining about the rising of the price of petrol, food, and lot more. ya, i feel it, everyone feels it too. i feel so hard when it comes to spending. i try all my best to save like crazy. ya, so crazy. as time goes by, now i already get to my new lifestyle. although is pretty hard, but i make it! and i hope all the people can do it too. you not just save for yourself, you save the world. here are some tips that i would like to share with you all.

first, ya, the petrol.
ok. it's a bit hard. we need transport, we need to travel almost everyday. to work, to school......we can't deny it,no matter how high the price of the petrol, we still have to go for it. hey, but you still can minimize the times of traveling. carpool is the best choice. if not, just try bus and you can also save your environment. or else, if your destination is not too far, why don't just try walking or cycling? they are good for your body too. isn't it a bonus?
well, i just did it! now, i rarely drive, i take bus. it may a little bit frustrating but it definitely help to save my pocket money.


well, next, paper. ya, save papers, save trees. and what i mean is not just normal paper, it can also be tissue papers, kitchen towels, even toilet papers.......i wonder why not many people like to use handkerchiefs or old fabrics? they are reusable and washable. most of all, they are environmental friendly. imaging how much you spend all that "papers"? c'mon, buy a handkerchief now, you can see how much you can save!
how about papers? ya, those a4 papers. we know, use both sides of paper can save money. yes, that's why i always keep unused papers as draft. and, if your documents are just for draft , just bring all the unused papers to photocopy shop and ask for coping straight to the unused papers.


well, well, this is just the part one.
more to come..........

悲离

悲离

我坐在餐椅。坐在我对面的是爸爸和妈妈;坐在我左右两侧的是弟弟和妹妹。我们正等着最后一道菜上桌。这一餐,我等了好久,终于可以再和家人一起吃饭了。这一餐我请客,为父母庆祝双亲节。恰好,爸爸也刚退休,我这个做女儿的也是时候让他好好享受日子了。
还记得在学院念书的日子,我天天盼望假期的到来,以便可以回家。如今,我如愿以偿了!但,我此刻的心情却不如所期待那样。看着一家人开开心心地享用晚餐,我感到非常温馨,但,也感到害怕。我害怕失去他们……
是的,我很幸福,因为我有家。但,这幸福会永久吗?我的家人会永远陪在我的身边吗?想起刚过世的姨丈和老舅、年老病痛的阿姨、邻居,还有我的中学老师,我不禁悲从中来。身边越来越多人患病,越来越多人离我而去……让我十分感慨,生命就这样在不知不觉中渐渐消逝。
还有,中国四川发生的大地震更叫人悲痛万分!一瞬间,一切消失得无影无踪、无声无息……家人、朋友更是随着那无情的震骇永远地走了。我相信谁也无法承受这巨大的打击。然而,这是天灾。面对突如其来的天灾,他们丝毫没有抵挡能力,只能含着泪,无助地看着它带走曾经属于他们的一切。
啊!人生是何等的无常!生命是何等的脆弱而卑微。我们总有一天也会面对悲离的时候。我想,我们能够做的就是趁在世时,趁身边的人还健在时多陪伴他们,多关心他们,尤其是家人。我们要珍惜当下,然后也应该以豁达的心态面对悲离。



世界上 没有任何生命可以永久地存在
但是 人们的精神传承却能永恒不息
