First Post!

Hello!

I have just returned from graduation and I am officially on summer break! This summer, I'm not going to let my three glorious months of freedom pass by without accomplishing anything. Every summer I set a different goal for myself, but I never really carry them through. Last year, I vowed to keep busy by doing something with friends every day. As more of my friends evacuated the city for their summer plans, I stopped being as vigilant. I eventually spent one whole week in late July watching Friends reruns from my couch. Another year I promised to read a book every week but I quickly dropped that goal.

This year is different though, because of this blog. I have to keep up my goal because I have to post everyday. And especially because this task is something I really care about. Saving our Earth. Or doing as much as I can. Currently, I live my life as eco-friendly as is convenient. I walk the extra feet to the recycling bin, I open my window instead of turning on the AC, I bring a reusable water bottle with me, but I know I can do so much more. 

This summer, I'm going to take up a new environmentally friendly habit every day. I've seen so many cool ideas, but I haven't tried any of them because I never seem to have any time. With summer finally here, I'm ready to begin! Nothing too drastic at first, just cool crafts to reuse materials or earth friendly products to buy. I want people to realize that being eco-friendly doesn't mean devoting your life to the cause, there are many easy ways to save our planet. My blog is here to tell you which ideas are successful, and which don't seem worth your time. I'm excited to start, and see how much more eco-friendly I can make my life. I'm also happy to learn more about environmental issues along the way.

Happy Summer!
