Doing something for the Environment

As you know, I just came back from my nature trip :)
But I have been a MNS member for 3 years plus now. But unfortunately, I haven't had the chance to participate in any of the activities yet as the ones that I wanted to join is always full.

On thursday, I had to go to church for day of obligation - ascension day. Since mass is at 7.30pm, I decided to stop by Amcorp mall to go to the internet cafe. As you all know by now, the place I am staying in right now doesn't have phone line nor internet access.

While I was walking into the building, I was stopped by this guy dressed in a white tshirt holding a WWF logo. He was explaining me this and that balblabla. Trying to convince me to be a donor for WWF. I mean after going to the Elephant Santuary at Kuala Gandah, Pahang, I realized that its very difficult to conserve these animals and the cost is high. So they need funds and the only way to supplement the funds from the govt is to appeal to the public for monetary help.

So I decided that I want to help conserve the env for the future generation. Taman Negara being the last forest around. I wanted to help.... So i decided to donate 30 ringgit a month. Yes. that would be deducted automatically from my credit card every 4 months once. They are doing the forth monthly thingy to help save administrative cost.

We earn money , dont' you think we should do somethings for the society instead of being my colleague who talks about one day helping people and doing some missionary work but half the time she only buys gucci, LV stuff. ???? contridicts right?

Anyways, I should be sending a cheque ( or check as americans will type) to the Monfort Boys school. Help them survive.

I don't know how much this is considered a change but the little bit that I do, I hope someone will benefit from it.

Well done Monyet, am very proud of you. Ya I agree, your friend a bit contradicting ler .. but who knows maybe she will stop buying designer brands after her missionary trip? Same ler as those who throw their money in pubs or discos every week. What to do, human nature. Some people snap out of it, some don't. We do whatever we can lor.
