Environmental Awareness

We all are expected to have concern about the environment, the world we live at this moment as this is the legacy of our children, but in reality there are still many people who haven’t aware of the meaning of the environment itself. Consequently, those who have the awareness can work alone, within group or side by side with law enforcement to take action, to increase public awareness about the important role played by the environment. Real action can be done through education, information and counseling. There is a small team in New York City’s department of environmental conservation; it consists of twenty officers, called the “Green Police.” The green police implement environmental rules and issue citations to environmental violators.

In some countries, in order to improve the environmental awareness, they even provide stimulus or motivation for the active role of the community to maintain the environment. As mentioned earlier, to increase environmental awareness can be done through various ways; it can be started by educating people in the sense of giving direction to the system of values and attitudes to be able to maintain a balance between the fulfillment of personal interests, social interests, and natural interests. This is what Green Police has been doing. We can also directly and actively playing our part such as field trips in the wild by bringing our children, showing them how wonderful is when the nature is still in harmonious environment, all this is to educate our children the responsibilities and obligations, so they can gain the awareness since young age.

What should I do when I fall in love with my close friend?

Changing your friendship from just a close friend into romantic relationship is not easy. Especially when both of you have enjoyed and comfort with your existing friendship. However, denying your own feeling is not healthy either, you cannot fool yourself. When it appears to be this way, which is to turn your friendship into some romantic relation, the following have been considered as the most secure way to express it:

1. Tell her or him honestly
This is the simplest way, you can immediately find the answer whether he or she has the same feeling. But the risk is higher. Would be a relief if it turns out that both of you have the same feeling. If not, it's natural if you're disappointed and even ashamed and become uncomfortable with the continuation of your friendship. Timing is very crucial when you decide to do it this way. Look for the right time; don’t rush but don’t be too long. Use your own intuition!

2. Get together more often
Usually, you go together but with lots of friends. This time, find some time together. By this way, it becomes more secure to begin the approach. This will allow you to create some small sparks just to let you know whether he or she has the same feeling. Suppose a small kiss on the forehead or cheek and let’s see what response he or she will show. If you receive some negative signs like he or she makes some distance and move away, you can be sure that your close friend has no intention to expend your friendship into something romantic.

3. Disappeared for a while
Disappeared from the crowd for a while, who knows that she or he will be missing you, once you return and see the signals you can try to be more aggressive. However, this is some game you play and not everyone could get into this kind of game, please notice that. She or he may feel weird to your sudden return and intentional approach. Your goal to get his or her attention could turn out to be the opposite way when your close friend doesn’t like this approach. Before deciding to disappear, you should first identify your close friend’s character.

Improve Memory Senses While We Sleep

The scientists are now more and more focused on the ability to improve memory senses when we sleep. Several years ago, scientists reported that the smell of fragrance during sleep can improve the brain's ability in storing new memories.

A recent study conducted by experts found that sound is played some major parts when we sleep and has an effect similar to that fragrance which can improve memory senses.

In a research done by John D. Rudoy from Northwestern University it was noted that respondents that the sound is played during their sleep have a better memory for new things, although the respondents do not remember what voices they had heard.

However, Rudoy is no rush to conclude that the result of this research shows that stimulation done during sleep is better for the learning process than when it was done when we are awake.

According to Howard Eichenbaum, Ph.D., chairman of the Center for Memory and Brain, of Boston, when humans sleep, the brain will reconstruct the stimulus that was accepted into the memory and voices or sounds that played may trigger certain memories so that we are so much easier to remember.
