Blog #9 I'm finally caught up !

My partner on Thursday of last week told me to get a ton of duct tape. So i went out that same weekend and went to go look for the duck tape. But unfortunately i couldn't find duck tape that didn't so much my money. I'm still working on it but lately i have been doing a ton of catch up homework witch was a pain on the neck and still i'm trying to do it. Nonetheless this weekend for sure i will get some just hope that nothing happens to me. This is the type of duct tape i want to buy but cant afford it: wish i can get it. BUT WHY DOES MY PARTNER NEED IT?

Blog #4 I need help and got it

In this blog i couldn't remember what i did but nonetheless i know i did something. i got kind of frustrated when all the cardboard i found was all dirty and nasty. So i gave that a break and set out to find the most common recyclables: plastic bottles and aluminum cans. So me and my brother went out to my neighborhood to go look for what i wanted. We were out for a couple of hours and we found a decent amount; we put it on my wagon and kept on looking for more. At the end of the day i had a big bag of plastic and a miniature bag of aluminum. I was so happy and tired.

Blog #2 Time to catch up

Blog #2 was to be done a while back ago, but i didn't do it. i'm going to try to remember what happen. Okay so its was the beginning of me and me partner's project. We were trying to finish up the car but we needed more materials such as cardboard, wood, and metal things. Obviously cardboard was the main thing i needed to look for. So i did in about a few days i found a decent amount of cardboard and a little bit of metal; luckily i also found an old car radiator for the front of the car.

Blog #9-Bicycle Change-Up


         So I was given a trashed up bike that was going to be recycled for metal. It was in bad shape, but still usable. So I began working on the bike. It took hours for the tires alone, but when I finished, I was able to ride the bike. But something that didn't seem right was the design. I didn't really like it, so an idea hit me. I should use colored duct tape to design the bike. So after much thought and consideration, I finally figured out what design to use. My favorite color, green, combined with a legendary entity of great power, and a hint of creativity, gave birth to my newly designed bike. And it's still not done. I've discovered some flaws in it, but once it's truly done, it will totally look awesome.

Blog #8 Falling behind

I am falling behind on my blogs so im going to blog about what i did yesterday. Yesterday i went to go look for more cardboard since the rest that i found was all nasty and dirty. I started around with my neighborhood but unfortunately i didn't find anything of my interest. So i went out to like small businesses and ask for some. Of course they had some but these small shops need money so they wanted money for it. i didnt take it because its a recycling project witch means that i should use my money. Besides they had  cardboard that was all torn and full of grease.

Blog #7 Times that are not so lucky

Today is Wednesday April  16. I'm doing my blog today because later on I'm going to forget. During the weekend I spend more than 4 hours looking for cardboard but most of it that i found were like full of grease and dirty, wet, and very smelly. But on the other hand i found aluminum and a little bit of plastic; the one problem with that is i really didn't need it. When i found cardboard i was so excited but when i pulled it out it was all covered in like slime and smelled really bad so i just left it.

Blog 1-The Beginning

Marcos:
                     Me and my partner Josue are going to start recycling all that this recyclable such as plastic aluminum, cardboard, metals and many more. Also we are going to create different kinds of creations, mostly made of recyclables. This would help our neighborhood, schools and community. By recycling we can reduce all of the trash from our community and at the same time we are making the place green. My partner and I are looking for plastic, aluminum, glass. Then once we are done we'll expand our ideas to do more.   
Josue:
          Hello everyone. My name is Josue. Me and my partner have decided to work together to use recyclables to make things. Some might be big, and others might be small. But the important thing is to find things that people would find unusable into something reusable. One man's trash is another man's treasure.
