Cara alami meluruskan rambut 
Seledri ternyata bisa bikin rambut lurus secara alami.


Daripada ke salon dan meluruskan rambut dengan bahan kimia yang bisa menyebabkan rambut rusak, lebih baik mencoba cara alami berikut ini!

• Ambil satu ikat daun seledri, tumbuk hingga hancur, beri sedikit air kemudian peras dan ambil airnya.
• Diamkan air perasan seledri selama 1 malam.
• Besoknya gunakan air seledri untuk memijat bagian kulit kepala hingga merata, lalu diamkan hingga beberapa menit.
• Bilas dengan memakai shampoo hingga bersih.
• Lakukan setiap hari selama 10 hari berturut-turut.

Cara praktis usir komedo  Komedo muncul karena kulit tersumbat oleh kotoran dan minyak. Selain itu, sel kulit mati dan bakteri yang menempel pada kulit juga turut merangsang tumbuhnya komedo dan jerawat.

Komedo memang bikin bete! Tapi nggak perlu sedih, atasi dengan 6 langkah berikut!

1. Pakai kosmetik yang bebas minyak dan berbahan dasar air sehingga kulit wajah tidak mudah tersumbat oleh kotoran dan minyak yang menempel di wajah.
2. Bersihkan wajah dua kali sehari. Tapi jangan mencuci muka terlalu sering, karena kelembaban alami kulit bisa hilang.
3. Berhenti memencet hidung! Cara ini justru akan membuat kulit meradang dan akhirnya infeksi.
4. Gunakan masker antikomedo untuk mengangkat komedo yang menempel. Kita bisa membuatnya sendiri menggunakan campuran putih telur dan madu, dengan takaran yang sama. Lalu tempelkan campuran tadi dengan menggunakan kapas pada daerah T, terutama hidung. Biarkan hingga kering, lalu bilas dengan air hangat.
5. Pakai sabun muka yang mengandung butiran scrub. Sebelumnya, uapi terlebih dahulu wajah selama beberapa menit dengan menggunakan baskom berisi air panas. (cara ini efektif lebih efektif, karena pori-pori akan melebar dan membuat komedo lebih mudah lepas saat dibersihkan dengan menggunakan sabun). Setelah membersihkan wajah, gunakan toner yang berguna untuk menutup kembali pori-pori.
6. Lakukan facial setiap sebulan sekali untuk membantu membersihkan komedo yang mengganggu.

EARTH HOUR

AYOO SELAMATKAN BUMI KITA! WOOHOO!

Go Green versi Teenagers!

Kalau selama ini acara nongkrong kita bareng sobat hanya untuk menyenangkan diri sendiri, sekarang saatnya kita bikin bumi ikutan senang, yuk. Coba deh beberapa acara di bawah ini:

Berkebun
Selain sebagai sarana olah raga, berkebun juga bagus buat menambah persediaan oksigen di bumi, lho. Coba deh menanam pohon di halaman atau di lahan kosong dekat rumah. Pohon bisa menyerap CO2 dan melepaskan lebih banyak O2. Akarnya juga nanti bisa membantu untuk mencegah erosi, belum lagi pohon juga nantinya bisa jadi tempat hidup beberapa ekosistem. Beri nama pohon yang kalian tanam sesuai nama kamu dan sobat biar lebih seru. Jadi, semakin banyak kita menanam pohon, akan semakin sehat kan bumi ini?

Pajamas Party
Daripada buang-buang bensin untuk pergi ke suatu tempat, kenapa nggak bikin acara menginap bersama saja di rumah kita/sobat? Isi agenda pajamas party kita kali ini selain memasak menggunakan bahan-bahan organik, atau bisa juga mendaur ulang beberapa barang lama kita. Misalnya menyulap rok jins jadi tas, atau membuat scrap book dari karton bekas. 

Bike to School
Bensin yang kita gunakan setiap hari untuk pergi ke sekolah, tanpa kita sadari bikin bumi makin panas. Ada 510 milyar galon bensin yang digunakan setiap tahunnya di Amerika Serikat saja. Kebayang dong, berapa banyak yang dipakai sama penduduk dunia? Kalau kebetulan rumah kita dan sobat berdekatan dengan sekolah, kenapa nggak bersepeda bareng saja? Atau biar lebih seru, ikutan saja acara car free day bareng sobat. Sambil ngeceng kita ikutan menyelamatkan bumi, kan?

Lets GO GREEN

Kita sudah mengenal cinta bumi dan menerapkannya dalam keseharian. Itu hal yang bagus banget! Kini, tantangannya adalah meng-upgrade aksi kita dan memberi kontribusi lebih kepada lingkungan. Let’s go greener!

Green: Membuang sampah pada tempatnya.
Greener: Selain aksi tadi, kita juga membuang sampah yang berserakan di jalan. Awalnya, nggak perlu banyak. Cukup pasang target untuk memungut 1-2 sampah di jalan dan membuangnya ke tong sampah setiap hari. 

Green: Memisahkan sampah basah dan kering.
Greener: Memisahkan sampah basah, kering, plastik dan elektronik/ mengandung bahan kimia. Dengan begini, proses pengolahan sampah akan jauh lebih mudah. Aksi tersebut sekaligus mendukung proses daur ulang sampah eletronik/ berbahan kimia. Ini sangat berarti, mengingat banyaknya sampah elektronik dan materi berbahan kimia yang meracuni tanah, kerena dibuang begitu saja.

Green: Ikutan Earth Hour.
Greener: Jadikan Earth Hour isnpirasi untuk mengadakan aksi serupa secara rutin. Misalnya, dengan sebulan sekali memadamkan lampu dan peralatan listrik di rumah. 

Green: Menghemat pemakaian kertas. Misalnya, dengan nge-print/ fotocopy bolak-balik.
Greener: Mendaur ulang kertas sendiri. Kita juga bisa mengajak teman-teman lain melakukannya. Itu sama juga kita sudah berkontribusi menyelamatkan pohon-pohon yang akan ditebang.

Green: Ikutan Car Free Day
Greener: Mulai lebih sering mengurangi pemakaian kendaraan bermotor pribadi. Pilih bike to school atau naik transportasi umum. Dengan demikian, kita bisa makin mengurangi emisi timbal dan karbon.

Aksi diatas merupakan beberapa tindakan yang lebih baik untuk bumi. Tentunya, selain yang disebutkan tadi, kita bisa meng-upgrade banyak hal lainnya. Keep up our green spirit!

OVERHELMING, MUCH?

Do you know what its like to be the new kid on the block? If movies teach you anything it’s that newbies often get bullied or abused by peers. But I was lucky. In my second week at the new school, I already felt at home. I was a bit worried that I wouldn’t fit in, but everybody had been nice.
One thing I liked about the school was the music class. The school I had better music instruments than my old school, the teacher was nice and the students were okay. On my first day in music class I got to introduce myself. I mentioned my hobbies, including playing drums. The teacher asked me to share my experiences in playing drums. So I told everyone about being in a band before I moved here. Two or three guys grinned and whispered to each other. I didn’t know what they were whispering about. I continued my story, told the class that playing in the band is really fun for me at first, but it got annoying later and I’d decided I would never play in a band ever again because of that disappointing experience. The grinning guys looked somewhat crestfallen, but one of them smirked again and whispered something to the others. I was puzzled but didn’t give it further thought at that time.

***

I got out of the library. The time on my watch showed 5.30 PM. I had been doing a bit of reading there, the best thing to perk me up whenever I was tired of school. However, this time my heart wasn’t in it. So, here I was, walking alone the hallway, on my way out of the school building. As I was exiting the inner front gate, I heard the clear notes of a piano. My curiosity growing, I looked around. I walked along the bushes lining the front yard, trying to find where the sound came from. Then I figured that it must be coming from the music room (duh!), so I headed toward the windows of the room facing the front yard.
I peeped in. There was a guy with short, straight black hair wearing black full-frame glasses. His uniform was messy. I couldn’t see his face clearly since he was hunched over the piano keys. He seemed so absorbed in his playing. I held my breath, so beautiful was the music. As if sensing my presence, he stopped playing. I was ready to hide if he looked around, but strangely, he didn’t.
He started playing again, more slowly this time. His lips were moving, like he was singing. I only heard the music, maybe because his voice was so low. I sighed. How could anyone produce such a glorious symphony?
Suddenly, the light went out,. Startled, I moved away from the windows. Drats, there went my blissful moment! Oh, well, I guessed it was time to go home. I didn’t even realize the sun was setting and it was getting dark. I started to walk towards the school gate. And that’s when I heard the scream.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!” It was coming from the music room. I rushed back to the windows only to catch a glimpse of someone being carried away. The piano guy! Kidnapped!
Oh! My, WHAT IN THE WORLD WAS GOING ON?! What should this raw-girl-in-the-middle-of-an-unacquainted-situation do?!
My guts told me to run away as far as I could and/or report the incident to the police. But curiosity won. I couldn’t just run away. Not knowing what had happened to the piano guy. Whoever those people were might hurt the dude. I groaned, but I knew the bull by the horns.
After a few minutes of mustering up my courage, I dragged my shaking legs to the music room, trying to be as quiet as possible. Though I probably couldn’t free him myself, the least I could do was collect as many clues as possible to find and save that piano guy. Time to get down to work, Nancy Drew.

***

Flattening myself against the wall near the door to the music room, I hel my breath and listened for sounds from inside. Nothing. I peeked around the door. Empty. As I was goint to enter the room, I noticed something on the floor… A ROPE?
The rope led out of the room along the hallway. Instead of figuring out what the rope was doing there, I followed it. I reached a room with the sign ‘DO NOT ENTER’ on the door. Ignoring it, I made my way in. I could see well enough even in the glimmering light coming through the windows. Nobody was in the room, no signs of struggle either. Where were they? I looked around the room, puzzled.
Suddenly, someone put a rag over my face, gagging my mouth and covering my eyes. I tried to scream but the gag muffled my voice. I grabbed the hand holding the rag trying to get it off my face, but the person was too strong. I flung my arms in all directions, instinctively trying to hit my attacker. Even as I was struggling to pry his grip off, I felt myself being dragged somewhere.

***

The attacker finally, loosened his grip. By then I was too weak with fear to stand up straight, so he set me down on the floor. Somebody removed the rag. I had to close my eyes against the sudden assault of the light from the light bulb overhead. I squinted and found myself…in the music room!
I looked up. Four individuals, whom I recognized from my music class, stood in a circle around me, including the piano guy. He and the two other guys smirked at me, while the fourth, a girl was grinning, seemingly innocent. The girl lowered herself beside me, looked me straight in the eyes, and asked, “Care to join our school band? Our drummer broke his leg yesterday and we could really use someone with your experience. And you aced the test! Welcome aboard!”

Bottom of the ocean

It's been in the past for a while
I get a flash then I smile
Am I crazy?
Still miss you, baby

It was real, it was right
But it burned to have to survive
All that's left is
All these ashes

Where does the love go? I don't know
When it's all said and done
How could I be losing you forever?
After all the time we spent together

I have to know why I had to lose you
Now you've just become
Like everything I'll never find again
At the bottom of the ocean

In a dream you appeared
For a while you were here
So I keep sleeping
Just to keep you with me

I'll draw a map, connect the dots
With all the memories that I've got
What I'm missing
I'll keep reliving
( From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/m/miley-cyrus-lyrics/bottom-of-the-ocean-lyrics.html )

Where does the love go? I don't know
When it's all said and done
How could I be losing you forever?
After all the time we spent together

I have to know why I had to lose you
Now you've just become
Like everything I'll never find again
At the bottom of the ocean

This is it
Let go
Breathe

You don't have to love me
For me to, baby, ever understand
Just know of all the time that we both had
And I don't ever wanna see you sad, be happy

I don't wanna hold you
If you don't wanna tell me you love me, babe
Just know I'm gonna have to walk away
I'll be big enough for both of us to say, be happy

I CANT HATE HIM

Don't know why, I could never hate him.
after all the pain, tears came out, and angry, 
I still can't hate him.

although now I know that he already has another woman at his side,
I still can not hate him.
I always wanted there to help him,
I want to be able to listen to what he experienced that day, all the story.
no matter how hard me to hate him, I still can't.

Sometimes I am confused what to do to hate him,
but no matter how hard I tried to hate him,
I realize that I still love him ..

Hello World, it's me, EDITH!

Hi, semuanya. Ini blog baru gue, sebenernya gue udah punya sebelumnya, cuman gak pernah gue urusin. Memang karna gue bukan tipe orang yang suka ngeblog kaya gini. Tapi mungkin dengan diberikannya tugas komputer oleh guru gue yaitu Pak Marsono, mungkin bisa membuat gue bisa berbagi cerita sama kalian. Cheerioo! Thank you :)
