Acts of Good #64, 65, 66, and 67

I haven't posted acts of good in the past few days, so I wanted to catch up with the ones that I haven't recorded yet, so here we go:

  1. I've been talking to a lot of old friends and making sure to let them know how much I miss each of them, even the ones whom I didn't speak to often.
  2. After being asked for my parents what I want for my birthday (which is coming up soon), I asked them for something that is definitely an act of good, and they agreed. I'll announce it later on closer to my birthday, and it's extremely exciting!
  3. I gave two amazing friends birthday cards (and I gave one a present), though the cards required a bit of patience and effort, but their joyfulness made it worthwhile.
  4. I've been an advocator of recycling even before I went to my new school, as that was one of the jobs that the student government representatives at my old school would accomplish, but after meeting Mollie (one of my best friends), I've become so much more, and I'm happy to say that I've been trying my best to recycle (and compost now as well) as much as possible, and trying to be more eco-friendly. :)

Going Green Link: London 2012 Olympics

You know what's really interesting? The path one's mind takes and the journey from one thought to a different one, seemingly completely different until you see the track.

For example, what's the connection between Rafael Nadal, the #1 tennis player in the world, and going green?
Read more to find out. ;)
I was looking at Nadal's Facebook site, and I went to the Facebook page for Tennis to make sure that I had "liked" it already. I had. :)
While on that page, I read something about Tennis being an Olympic Sport. I knew this before, but it led me to go on to the next Olympic Game's website, London2012.com so I could see when exactly the games would take place.

And then, lo and behold, an article about how the London Olympics was trying its best to go green. *cheers*
Here's a link to the article that I found. Hope you like it!
