hour of disappointment
well. it's an hour. it was an hour though. an hour supposedly to b filled with hope and an effort of conservation. if you're guessing, yes, it's Earth Hour. or rather it WAS earth hour.
it was a rather disappointing spectacle i saw yesterday nite on my end, at my residence. totally pathetic bunch of ingrates, i must say. i dno abt the rest of tis nation. but it was definitely a great effort put in by the city's CBD. shutting off most lights for an hour in town area is definitely a thumbs-up, considering how much electricity the city area use. though the sad thing was, i wasnt there to lure in the darkness. haha.
i must compliment the effort the businesses put in ytd to bring out their bunch of environmentally creative ideas. and well, i did my part too, switching off lights in the house and no a/c for an hour or more in my room. (man. and i was perspiring like crazy ytd nite, adding the fact that i was alrdy ill. AGAIN...)
wad disappoints me more, or rather a whole lot more, was so many pple around my residence was still happily having their lights on and playing around. Having their living rooms brightly lit by electricity, rooms, toilets, etc. throughout that hour, i really had the urge to throw foolscaps with msges telling those pathetic lowlifes, to switch off their lights into their houses and backyard. but of cos i didn do it, apparently not wanting to be a target for complaints.
maybe they werent aware. if that was a reason, thn i accept. but if everyone's gna use that as an excuse, man, i'll give them a tight slap right in their faces. looking at those pple outside my house merrily enjoying their time away in the swimming pool, it was infuriating.
but of cos, i'm not entirely saying that there werent units that had their lights off. there was. but only a puny handful. *sighs*...looks like our planet is on its way to doom with so many of such pple. it's like no one were in the spirit for it.
something must be done next year! something better!!!
