187. Beach Clean Up Time!
Now, Brunei is pretty well known for its “greenery” and our untouched pristine forest and our oil. haha. But we locals here know that these are not only the treasures that our country has. For all I know, we like to get out and go fishing! if not, Singing!! =D Okay, perhaps that’s abit too general but you get the idea, no? We like outdoor activities!
Our beaches are beautiful! To be just sitting on one of the big rocks, or drawing letters and pictures on the sand with your fingers, or building sand castles, or have a sandwich (or nasi katok. haha)! It’s a blessing, no?! And what’s better, this enjoyable experience can be shared by the many without a cent spent! – well, okay… apart from the fuel and da-dee-da… but really, to enjoy God’s gift? Hmms, don’t think so.
So So So. It’s just so important to keep the beach clean because it won’t do any good to anyone and everyone (including the beach itself) if we are being inconsiderate and litter the place (consciously or subconsciously). Yah, like you’d like to spend a lazy cool late afternoon surrounded with all the beauty of nature but just suddenly “greeted” by some *trying-to-disintegrate* plastics or diapers! -.- sigh* Not nice at all, ey?!
I was once in the Environment Committee of a Student Council in high school, my role was not a very grand one. But, as a team we made a difference! When I left the school, I’m glad to know today that they are doing beach clean up like a routine! =D But face it, they themselves can’t do ALL the job!
So! Let’s do this!
Cikgu Mansor has organised a date – 12th July at 4pm for us to gather at Jerudong Beach. It’ll be a picnic, it’ll be a sunset watching experience, it’ll be get-to-know the team members and the locals!! and above all, it’s about having a great time and FEELING GOOD FOR DOING SOMETHING GOOD FOR THE COUNTRY AND FOR NATURE!!!!
Of course it’s open to everyone. Of course it’s you I’m hoping that will come. And Of course you can bring your friends and family! And YAH, BRING FOOD AND CAMERA!
P.s.: Don’t forget some gloves and plastic bags – it’s a beach clean up afterall.
