So today was the first day of this little challenge and its not that hard. just using plastic containers is easy. I had a sandwhich and a granola bar. Tommorow maybe ill bring an apple and salad? Maybe! I think this is really helping the environment by doing this, Now if only everyone could be doing this! :)

TUESDAY... today was a bit harder to mantain the NO garbage rule because my sandwhich was too big to be put ion a conatainer so i had to use a baggy, but i can reuse that for chips and such. Other then that nothing too bad. I had tea in a reusable mug. :) Its going good!! My family is also using reusable containers now like my dad always use's one for lunch when he goes to work. So yeah the only garbage i really had was my recyclable juice can.

WEDNESDAY.. Well Today I had a sandwhich and a cheese string and I totally forgot to use a contaniner for my sandwhich so i used a reusable little baggy thing. Not too bad. Its hard to find stuff thats simple and easy to make at home in the morning for school when you have to worry about if it going to fit in the container or can You reuse this and after 3 days It just kind of gets annoying. Like You have to worry about if your going to go out for lunch what rappers there are and stuff, so Personally This is a great Idea to help the Earth and all but Recycling is good too.Right?

THURSDAY..... I dont really know what to write about this day. It was a good day and my lunch was Nice and delicious!!!!! I techniqually used two reusable bags/containers which is great! At home i reuse stuff now instead of just throwing it out or if i need to wash my hands i use a towel Not a Paper towel, to just throw it out after. Its going good. Maybe even when this is all done I will have some good habits out of this "challenge"!. Alright cool well write more tommorow... :)
