Blog #3-Josue's Perspective

Josue:

So we had ideas on what to do for our project. This one may seem to big for the both of us, but if I remember, a quote said, "If your dreams do not scare you, they are not big enough"-Ellen Johnson. My imagination led to a Dream that became a vision of what could be. Mostly, a project of the 1930s helped me make my decision. We decided to start building a 1930s Blackhawk, an automobile so rare, only less than 1700 cars were sold. I also found the term for what we are doing. "Up cycling" is the term used to define a way of reusing. Sure, there is a chance some of the projects might turn up crude, but our purpose is to up cycle, and up cycle we shall.

Marco;


              I have gathered a lot of bottles of plastic and aluminum cans and i have already a full bag of plastic bottles and a half a bag of aluminum cans. Now i am on high demand for cardboard and glass bottles. This is a step further into my project but its worth it. i have not yet sold my bag of bottles nor the bag of aluminum because it is not enough of the stuff and when i trade it, it wont be worth as much. On Wednesday i finally found an abundance of cardboard. it look like it came from a bed covering but its good. During the weekend i found plastic buckets and crates. And also i found a bird cage made of steel but i used it for my pet bird.
