12th ROASTERS Chicken Run at Desa Waterpark

I heard my friends told me before on the Roasters Chicken Run where all the participants had to hold the egg and run like a Chicken and I always wonder how it looks like. The opportunity came when Mommy Jane said will bring us to Desa Waterpark to join the run for this year. I was very excited and was the first to woke up that day to join their 12th Run.

I had spend a great Sunday to witness a run for a good cause. 12th ROASTERS Chicken Run had inspired me to join more marathon this year to help people in need. Thanks to KRR for the great event that brings my family and friends together on that weekend while doing our part to the charitable homes.

Clean the Beach Campaign by 7-Eleven

2 weeks ago when Mommy Jane ask us which activities that we preferred since we had 3 invitations at the same date and at the same time. First to Aquaria KLCC where we can see many fishes. It is quite interesting since we long time didn't went there. 2nd to Museum to reminds us all the history that we had read and 3rd to clean up the beach at Morib. Most of us choose to go to Aquaria KLCC which is nearer and more comfortable but Mommy Jane had choose to cover the clean the beach campaign instead. Erm.... Not sure what she is thinking about. Ask us to pick up the rubbish now. We got Kakak to do that all the times but why we had to do it now ?

I had to woke up at 6 a.m. because we need to reach Plaza Berjaya by 7 a.m. to took the bus to the Morib beach.

Me and my Ti Ti enjoyed sitting bus

After an hour journey, we reach at the beach. We were given a briefing by the 7-Eleven Chief before the campaign start.

All of us were given a pair of glove and a plastic bag to pick up the rubbish at the beach area and throw at the bag given.

After 2 hours of picking up the rubbish, the beach was all clean. We throw all the rubbish to the bin there that was sponsored by 7-Eleven too.

We then wash our hands with soap and were given Fresh to Go nasi lemak with egg, sambal and peanut by 7-Eleven. This is my first time eating the nasi lemak and it is really delicious. I can add on some fishballs and sausages in it too. 

After having our meal, I ask Mom to bought me a kite. Since the beach is all clean, it is time for me to play. Yeah...

I can take off my shoes now and running at the beach with my Ti Ti and Cher Cher. The wind is quite strong that time and our kite had fly very high. It is so beautiful and I am so happy running around with my kite.

At around 1 p.m., we started our journey home. I had a wonderful times and had done a great job to clean our beach. Now, I understand why Mommy Jane had choose to be part of this campaign. So that we could learned to keep our beach clean always for the benefit of everyone.
