Back To Nature 2 : The Cleaning Garbage


When you cook at home or eat fruits, take note of how much garbage do you generate from the process – before & after. What do you do with these “kitchen waste”? Throw away & generate more methane gas?

INTRODUCING…… Dr. Rosukon’s Garbage Enzyme

What’s that?
It’s a science project you can start at home with your vegetable & fruit waste to produce top-quality, safe & environmental friendly solutions that can replace the “harmful household chemicals” and……helps reverse the Green House Effect.


What can the Garbage Enzyme do?

1. Purify Air/Reduce Pollution
2. Purify Underground Water (from river to the sea)
3. Natural Pesticide
4. Anti bacterial and virus
5. Unblock your kitchen pipe & toilet bowls
6. Deodorizer (yup, this product of garbage helps clear the air)
7. For ironing & washing
8. Natural Fertilizer

Have I got you interested yet? :p

THE Recipe

You'll need :
(a) An Airtight Plastic Container (5KG cooking oil container will do)
(b) Brown Sugar/Molasses
(c) Water
(d) Vegetable/Fruit garbage (chop to smaller pieces)

The ratio for the ingredients in making Garbage Enzyme is:
1 part Brown Sugar
10 parts Water
3 parts Garbage

Method:
i. Mix brown sugar with water, add in the garbage.
ii. Leave some space for fermentation.
iii. Enzyme will form and ready to use in 3 months.
iv. Make sure the container is air tight.
vi. Push the floating garbage downward once a while.
vii. The enzyme is ready to use in 3 months. The residue can be reuse for the next production by adding fresh garbage. It can be use as fertilizer by drying the residue, blending and buried in the ground.


Important Notes:

-- Use a plastic container as there will be some gas build up.

-- MUST add sugar (find out why, Dr. Rose Explained: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFN1oOW4ebE)

-- Leave some space : The ingredients when added up should come up to about 80% of your container, thus 20% space is needed for fermentation. You may release the gas once in a while (some say once daily, some say once every week) in the first month during the fermentation process. After that keep it airtight till it reaches the end of the 3rd month when it is ready for use. Filter it into your bottles and use it on your household and those recommended.

Back To Nature 1 : STOP Poisoning ourselves with chemicals

We have heard it, we have read it and yet, we still do it.

Scientist discovered even people who eats healthily, live healthily are getting cancer and other chronic diseases. Why is that? That’s because our daily FOOD & so-called cleaning solutions we so depend upon to keep us “healthy” are poisoning us!

Shocking, isn’t it? If you have not realized yet, our fruits & vegetables is filled with chemical fertilizers. The fishes & chickens are fed & injected with growth hormones & chemical feeds. We wash ourselves & everything around us with chemicals that could burn/kill if accidentally taken. Don’t believe? Do you know that dishwashers can kill you pet cat or dog?

What can we do? Go Organic? That’s one option. However, I realized that the term “Organic” and “Biodegradable” can be very vague and there are some non-ethical businesses out there that try to manipulate this “crisis awareness” and loosely claimed their sub-standard products.

HAHa ! Good thing you read my blog (heheh). Recently I have come to know of a wonderful “recipe” that you can make at home to replace ALL the cleaning solutions in your house and even your plants would love it and grow healthy & STRONG!

Come back in a couple of days for the “special recipe(muahahaha....) if you care enough for mother nature.

Temperature rising (amat panas sekali !!!)

Hi folks ! Sorry for the short hiatus. Nope, I haven't given up my blog yet.
Just been SUPER Busy lately. :p

Anyway, I’m sure everyone noticed the extreme hot weather recently. A sure sign of global warming, isn’t it? U know, I started to imagine very soon human will start their daily activity during the evening instead of early morning because the morning and afternoon sun might be too hot to bear. Will this ever happen? Only time will tell.

There have been many awareness campaign urging people to be more environment friendly by changing little things they do in their daily life.

Here’s a list of “simple changes” that I think anyone can make – if only you want to (instead of giving excuses):

(p.s.: do you notice that recycle also helps to cut down expenses?)

1. Reduce plastic bags – bring with you a foldable shopping bag

2. Recycle your washing water – here are what I like to do
  • Rice water : good for plants & your skin
  • Detergent water from washing your clothes : recycle to scrub your toilet/driveway/rags
3. Switch on air-cond only when necessary – set timer

4. Keep more plants around you – best natural air filter & cooler

5. Plan your driving trip to keep it less – too many cars on the road already.

I think many people wanted to do their part to for the environment. However, as usual, changing their current lifestyle is not easy for most people. That is why people constantly need reminder, encouragement & group support.

If everyone in every household do their bit, hopefully we will see our earth starts healing from the damage that has been done……. poor, poor polar bears. :(

The Poem : Please Hear What I'm NOT Saying

I was going through my old notebook and found this poem which I've copied from a book about the life of a physical challenged girl named Jane.

Please Hear What I'm NOT Saying (by Charles C. Finn)

Don't be fooled by me.
Don't be fooled by the face I wear
for I wear a mask, a thousand masks,
masks that I'm afraid to take off,
and none of them is me.

Pretending is an art that's second nature with me,
but don't be fooled,
for God's sake don't be fooled.
I give you the impression that I'm secure,
that all is sunny and unruffled with me, within as well
as without,
that confidence is my name and coolness my game,
that the water's calm and I'm in command
and that I need no one,
but don't believe me.
My surface may seem smooth but my surface is my mask,
ever-varying and ever-concealing.
Beneath lies no complacence.
Beneath lies confusion, and fear, and aloneness.
But I hide this. I don't want anybody to know it.
I panic at the thought of my weakness exposed.
That's why I frantically create a mask to hide behind,
a nonchalant sophisticated facade,
to help me pretend,
to shield me from the glance that knows.

But such a glance is precisely my salvation, my only hope,
and I know it.
That is, if it's followed by acceptance,
if it's followed by love.
It's the only thing that can liberate me from myself,
from my own self-built prison walls,
from the barriers I so painstakingly erect.
It's the only thing that will assure me
of what I can't assure myself,
that I'm really worth something.
But I don't tell you this. I don't dare to, I'm afraid to.
I'm afraid your glance will not be followed by acceptance,
will not be followed by love.
I'm afraid you'll think less of me,
that you'll laugh, and your laugh would kill me.
I'm afraid that deep-down I'm nothing
and that you will see this and reject me.

So I play my game, my desperate pretending game,
with a facade of assurance without
and a trembling child within.
So begins the glittering but empty parade of masks,
and my life becomes a front.
I idly chatter to you in the suave tones of surface talk.
I tell you everything that's really nothing,
and nothing of what's everything,
of what's crying within me.
So when I'm going through my routine
do not be fooled by what I'm saying.
Please listen carefully and try to hear what I'm not saying,
what I'd like to be able to say,
what for survival I need to say,
but what I can't say.

I don't like hiding.
I don't like playing superficial phony games.
I want to stop playing them.
I want to be genuine and spontaneous and me
but you've got to help me.
You've got to hold out your hand
even when that's the last thing I seem to want.
Only you can wipe away from my eyes
the blank stare of the breathing dead.
Only you can call me into aliveness.
Each time you're kind, and gentle, and encouraging,
each time you try to understand because you really care,
my heart begins to grow wings--
very small wings,
very feeble wings,
but wings!

With your power to touch me into feeling
you can breathe life into me.
I want you to know that.
I want you to know how important you are to me,
how you can be a creator--an honest-to-God creator--
of the person that is me
if you choose to.
You alone can break down the wall behind which I tremble,
you alone can remove my mask,
you alone can release me from my shadow-world of panic,
from my lonely prison,
if you choose to.
Please choose to.

Do not pass me by.
It will not be easy for you.
A long conviction of worthlessness builds strong walls.
The nearer you approach to me
the blinder I may strike back.
It's irrational, but despite what the books say about man
often I am irrational.
I fight against the very thing I cry out for.
But I am told that love is stronger than strong walls
and in this lies my hope.
Please try to beat down those walls
with firm hands but with gentle hands
for a child is very sensitive.

Who am I, you may wonder?
I am someone you know very well.
For I am every man you meet
and I am every woman you meet.

Charles C. Finn
September 1966

Romantic fantasy

This is the month where we all will be bombarded with Lovey-dovey ads cos Valentine Day is approaching again.

Every girl has their own dream version of romantic moments. Is it strange if I told you that I've never had a really "romantic moments" before? Never.

I started thinking perhaps Malaysian guys aren't romantic. Then again, we frequently read about how guys go all out & does romantic stuffs for their gf/wife in the news. Now, I began to suspect that it could be me. Perhaps I'm sending the wrong signal out that I am very practical person so no need to "waste money" on lovely flowers, surprise gifts, etc., etc.

Yes, I like practical but HEY! I LOVE pleasant surprises too. I'm a Scorpio, O.K.? Romance is in my star. *Hint, hint, hint* ...LOL!

Anyway, my "secret" (no-more) romantic fantasy........... (jeng, jeng, jeng)



..... is to be swept across the room dancing hand-in-hand. Haha... but then again, I have two left feet. Might turns out to be an embarrassing moment for me after all. :p

I want to go..... :: Part 2 -- Backpacking again


...cont'

Although the thrifty me feels guilty for spending tens of thousands Ringgit for my 2004 Europe Backpacking trip, I felt it's worth every cent. The experience, the sight and all -- priceless.

I long for those "adventure" again. YES! after too much of "work, work, work" lifestyle, I CRrrrAVE for adventure once a while. Where I can just go wherever I felt like it, meet colourful people along the way and absorb the splendor of Mother Nature.
