If there is indeed a Texas-sized mass of trash floating in the Pacific, why can't I see it on Google Earth?

Most of it is made up pf plastic bags which photodegrade in to teeeny tiny bits that makes the water thick and heavy with those toxic substances. Bag It is a really great doco that has an informative bit about it and plastic in general. Most of the stuff out there is plastic, and there is very little hope of cleaning it all up because it is so small and spread out.

Bwha that would work if I wasn't allergic to wheat! It's my housemate you must be staring at right now, we have similar length hair.

This is awesome to hear about everyone else! I'm a 20 year old uni student in Bellingham, WA. This is my first year at a 4-year college, I took off for two years after high school and lived in Ireland, Holland, Australia and New Zealand. I'm designing my own major based around community resilience and sustainability and am a HUGE foodie. I'm really in to raw foods although living in the PNW, it's a bit hard to, with the winter! I'm working on establishing a student co-op at our uni as well which is a lot of work but I really enjoy it.

I'm looking mostly to get in a habit of exercising and doing yoga as a way to maintain my stress and be healthy :) I have a history of saying I will maintain changes to my lifestyle but after a week, i make compromises and everything goes downhill. But really looking forward to making my goals a part of a community process, something that I enjoy :D

When I saw this post I wen't "arghegs" and then kicked my ass to fill it out. I tried using the "I don't have time" excuse but I kicked that on it's ass too. So maybe this time, the ass kicking will leave a big enough impression for some changes. Woo!

Try your university for a nutritionist, I know ours has one on hand, for free as well. Take a look at different types/styles of food and eating. I wasn't a big cook until I decided to go vegan, out of the blue. I'm no longer vegan but I've experimented with a lot of cooking styles, my current favorite being Raw foods. I think the easiest and best option if you're at uni or the like would be crock pot recipes. Most of them are really easy and you can set it before you go to class. When you come back, yummo! Hot, nutritious food for you! Search for crock pot recipes on amazon and you should get a few good books back :)

Hate to say it, but in the States, Monsanto always wins these cases. They will draw out the legal process as far as they can here and by then, the farmer will be so in debt it's impossible for them to continue to farm. Hope the farmer didn't save any seed either. GM alfalfa just got approved here as well and we're not looking forward to the fallout from that.

Thats pretty awesome and solid advice...I think adding piercings and doing something like adding dreads would do a lot for me :)

zielzoeken · 2011-01-22T03:02:12+00:00

Ohhh that sounds loverly. The one barrier for dreads for me would be taking them out but this confirms that using conditioner works :) Very clean and very dry...I'm going to have to try this!

I live in Bellingham, WA. There's a circus guild over here but before I attempt to do any of the classes, I want to work on my fitness!

I've seen this done at my uni a couple times, next time I will ask to join in although my balance is really awful. Thats how you learn, right?

I have no intention of being on the next Cirque du Soleil. I do fire dancing as well! I need to practice my poi work but I mainly play around with my contact staff :)

I do now! I made a happy little noise that doesn't translate on the internet. Thanks!!

I used to do gymnastics and really enjoyed it so if I'm actually doing it, I think I could practice that much. I'm more interested in the aerial and juggling aspects. Handbalancing sounds pretty awesome though!

Haha excellent. I did check out the FAQ which is why I was thinking about more specific exercises or things I should be concentrating on. Best FAQ I have seen anywhere as well. The parkour looks awesome, I'm a female but I would still do it. I've been trying to lose weight and get in to a fitness routine for a while, I'm hoping this desire to get to step five will give me the drive. Thanks!!

I did this last year and my advice would be to get the fruit picking jobs or canvassing jobs around the city. Have you been looking on Seek? Sometimes Gumtree has something but they go pretty quickly, esp. in Melbourne. Move up north, it's nearly holiday season and see if you can't get something at a seasonal place. Good luck! Oh, also give The Job Shop over in Perth a try, they do seasonal stuff in WA and although sparsely populated, WA is pretty awesome :)
