As most Marists would know by now, shopping is my favourite activity and I am always on the prowl for good buys and nice stuff. In true Ms Lee style, I was planning to go shopping yesterday after the Common Test marking (YEAH!) and stumbled upon a whole heap of plastic bags in my storeroom before I left.
I then decided that I was going to bring my bag to go shopping and selected a nice cloth bag which i brought with me to Orchard Road. Now, you know I seldom come home empty handed and the chances of me buying something is very high. True enough, I found that cloth bag very useful as it helped me to reject taking 2 plastic bags from the shops I patronised.
I have thus decided that from now on, I'll make a greater effort to bring my own bag when i go shopping and will decline taking any bags if I can help it. Truth really is I don't need a small plastic bag when I buy 2 pens and when i buy a hot dog bun, I don't need 2 bags.

I wish to encourage all Marist to do likewise - stop taking bags you don't need or would otherwise end up in the bin when you bring them home.
Let's save the Earth together!
