1st Mission in New Semester

Week 1

My mangetout moment started when I was searching for any interesting TV shows. Most of the time, I failed to find any interesting shows to watch. This made me realise that I just wasted electrical energy. Even though it used just a little energy, repeating the same action over and over could lead to waste of energy. Several other actions that I did such as not switching off the electricity once the charging of mobile phone or laptop have completed and using electrical appliances when they are not needed also contributed to waste of electrical energy. Therefore, I pledge myself not to use electrical appliances however I wish. Electricity shall be used only when it is really needed and will be used wisely from now on for the better future.

My plan in achieving this goal is firstly, to only switch on the television when I really needed to. For example, I only watch my favourite TV shows which include several cartoon shows and a reality show.  Other than these TV shows, I shall not switch on the television. In other words, I have already determined which interesting shows I would like to watch. Secondly, I will use my laptop with its battery supplying the energy, instead of using it without the battery (electricity is 100% supplied by power outlet). Last but not least, I will reduce the usage of fan and lamp in my room. I realise that I really do not have to depend on fan especially when the weather is quite cold humid due to rain. The usage of lamp will be reduced by not switching it on when I do work solely using laptop at home.

To be honest I am quite excited to do this self-experiment. I have never done any experiment towards myself. Moreover, it involves changing of habit, so I think it can be quite challenging. 

Hmmmm

But somehow that’s what I shall do…..CHALLENGE MYSELF FOR BETTER FUTURE.
