Its not the end but simply the catalyst to a bigger goal.

I showed parts of the show to the class of students where I am doing volunteering teaching. Considering the young age of the students, I was surprised that they seemed to be engaged in it. One of the parents came forward to ask where the video can be obtained. Next week, I will be doing follow-up to the video.

When I did an environmental lesson with my students about 2 years ago, their reaction was positive and encouraging. Right after the lesson, many of them wanted to continue the lessons without the fans.

However, the lesson itself is only a catalyst, igniting awareness and hopefully further action .
Effort is needed by both the teacher and most importantly, the parents to ensure that the initial enthusiasm can be sustained.

Just a preview, the whole episode is simply sobering.

Really cute video.

Personal opinion: Really feel that the Hong Kongers really did a good job in promoting awareness.

Earth Hour 2010

Earth Hour 2010 will occur on 27th March 2010.

To quote loosely ,it's set to be the best yet but only works best when all of us are involved.

Little ones with a big heart


A milipede at the Butterfly Park in Sentosa. Frankly speaking, being a faint hearted girl, I did not dare hold the milipede.
However, after seeing my little girl hold it, it doesn't seem that bad after all. I decided to pluck up the courage to hold it.
Actually, I have a phobia of butterflies since young. But...after seeing the little ones hold those fragile creatures in their hands, they don't seem so scary after all.
When we were inside the enclosure, the little ones saw a piece of broken wing and were clearly sadden by what they saw. The end of a fragile life.
I am lucky and grateful to have this class.
It seems like a nice way to end my bond.
After all, the graduating batch that I am teaching now were my first batch of students. I am now getting to teach them a bit of what I didn't teach them when I first took them.
