I'M GOING GRRREEN..... Labels: Al Gore, environment, global warming, photography, shoes, shopping, TJC
I hope I mean it when i've said this, but recently, the Al Gore wave has kindof swept me off my feet, and whoosh, I'm like nodding nodding when it comes to another Al Gore comment on global warming.
Hmmm....
What can we do to save precious Earth?
1. TRY to separate the garbage into "paper", "plastic bottles" and "unsortables". Provided i can get the consent of my mum who will always give the vote for convenience. But like Mr Gore says, saving the earth can sometimes be very "inconvenient"
2. Take as little bags as possible when going shopping.
3. No air con. (something i've been practising since young) Geez, see i started from a young age. We should always start young. Educate the kids!! Use biodegradable diapers!
4. Use 2 sides of the paper
5. Use lesser toilet paper. Use biodegradable toilet paper. But i don't think i can commit to the famous Sheryl Crow's technique of using one square per sitting. Ridiculous!
I hope we can all go green together.
By the way, I went for the College Day ceremony the other day. And i made physical contact with Mr V Balakrishnan!!!!!OOH... Ok, i won't make it sound so lewd. Okok, i merely shook hands with him. AND I SWEAR MY HEART SKIPPED A BEAT...
Seriously, he's a natural speaker and he was so good with his speech and oh-so-charismatic. I'm starting to understand why his wife is called Mrs Joy Balakrishnan. I would be called Joy too if i get to be called Mrs Balakrishnan. Damnit, i didn't manage to get a good photo of him.
But, here's me with something he had touched:
We viewed the Photog exhibition and it was actually quite good this year. Though i always thought the Scope is not very accessible hence the dearth of people every year. Personally, i liked Wee Chuan's works because those really stood out from the rest. And i'm very glad that all of them have improved in their skills. It was overall, a good exhibition put up by them and i could really see the efforts.
We left a funnily-crafted feedback for the comments book:
And i added in something like:
"Where's Marcius? Where's Weihan? Where's Edwin? Where's Wanying? Where's Adeline?"
Because, honestly, we should lend our support to the juniors for the brilliant showcase of their works....hootx.
It was great talking to the teachers. We spent such a long time talking to Miss Wong, Mrs Lee, Miss Kwan, 彭老师 and Mr V. After that, we went shopping for Simin's prez @ Orchard and like how Simin put it, we always become very 狼狈 when we go out together.
This time round, the heels hurt like hell!
Anw, here's a spontaneous poll: please respond in the tag board:
If there were only two pair of shoes left in the world, and you had to wear one, which one will you put on:
1. A disgustingly hideous pair of muddy-green crocs
2. A pair of Cinderella heels---beautiful but bites like crazy + it's impossibly high with stiletto heels :):) evil
Choose and state your reason, please.
I don't know what my answer will be, but i'm guessing it might be no.2. Gosh, crocs are crazy!
Anyway, please take a look at THE PLANS in the left column. So many new plans, and im getting excited! Really hope i can get the NDP tix...
Some photos to tickle your toes:
It's amazing how love seems to come with a price tag for the new generation of kids! Pokemon cards, my god.
mei mei grew legs overnight! LMAO...giggle.
P.S: don't forget the shoes poll.
