blog #6 Got money

In the past week i didn't do much because i was too focus on the cahsee but on Friday i found i found a ton of plastic bottles. Like almost two full bags but with aluminum i didn't find as much oh well. I also found a lot of cardboard but unfortunately most of it that i found was all wet. I also need to find all sorts of cardboard for the big up-cycling project that my partner is doing. My inventory is kind of small but it took me a lot of time to collect it. I want to start to trading all of my recyclables for money. i will post pictures later on. OnApril 5 I sold  a small bag of aluminum and a big bag of plastic and got $16 bucks.

Blog #5- When Opportunity knocks.....

So I was pretty bored one day eating at the table. So bored that I was going through the mail I fetched. Out of a magazine published by Anaheim, which gives the community daily and upcoming events news, something caught my eye( realizing now as I type that would really hurt). A future event is going to be held at Muzeo in April. This event involves creating art using recycling materials. I believe it was called "Trashartist" or something like that. It was unbelievable! Immediately, my mind began reeling for ideas, reaching into the great depths of my mind and getting ready to present them to my partner. Of course there's a catch: postponing our earlier project for something with a sooner deadline: April 1, 2014. I have an idea on how and it involves time-traveling into Anaheim's history........and soda cans........lots and lots of soda cans.

#4- Change of Plans

Josue:
So I thought about this for a while and I figured that we should tweak  our plan a bit. For example, why show how much recycling happens when most people know how but are too lazy to even try( although there are the few individuals who actually try; you have my thanks). So I just thought of just going through full up cycling. Seems like a better way to reuse. To remake something of little to no use into something better. Sometimes you got to take something apart to make something better. I will try to post photos, though this thing feels like it doesn't upload pictures correctly. Thanks!
