Earth Day

Today is Earth Day. Earth Day is held to inspire awareness of and appreciation for the Earth's environment - quote from Wikipedia. It is a day when we can all learn more about our planet and how to take care of it. I'm not very sure if this event is practise a lot in Malaysia but in the USA, it is a big and important event. Even Google changed the main picture in their website. My friend wrote something about global warming a few days back and he even include a mini guide on how to fold a plastic bag. Anyone interested in learning how to fold a plastic bag, can check out his blog here

Google's Earth Day

To be frank, I didn't even know there is such a thing as Earth Day. *shy**shy* My bad =x Anyway, was supposed to wear green to work today. This morning I searched my whole collection of clothes for something green. And the only greenie I found is my one and only green khakis which I actually forgot that I have it. Hmm, decided to wear that, but only to realize that it was 2 - 3 size bigger!! o.O Did the khakis grew bigger due to washing or did I actually lose that much weight? I ended up can't wear that to work. Since I don't any more green clothes, I looked for something which has the most green color on it, blek. Well, it's better than nothing I guess.

When I reached work, I thought it would be full of little green people. But instead, only a minority wore green. Cheh, wasted my time looking for a green shirt to wear. There were some activites held in conjuction with Earth Day, but I didn't participate in any of them. The day passed by like any normal boring working days, or so I thought.

I was walking towards the stairs, eager to go back home when I saw a lady in front of me. She was wearing green all over. Striking green baby-T, dark green skirt and green shoe. If that was not horrified enough, as she walked passed me I notice that she was also wearing green earring, green necklace and green bangle -.-''

Now that is something you don't get to see everyday. I know maybe she's trying to show her support by wearing all green but even so, there is a limit or to an extend where you won't be a laughing stock or end up embarassing youself in front of others. Or maybe she was just trying to get some attention from others. If she was, she sure got mine.

lol... to be frank, i don noe there's an earth day also. wahahaha.. care bout the environment, but i'm not those kind that will walk up to smoker n sae,"hey do u have any idea what that does to the ozone layer?" GOD FORBID.. i'm not an old prune that walks around and lectures anyone who's not treating the environment right

anyway, it's great that a company cares about the environment and do something to show involvement. might not be very helpful, but i guess it's the awareness that counts.

P.S :: u should buy more colorful shirts. they lift up ur spirits.
