    I went home this weekend and it was interesting to try the eco challenge there. I normally take longer showers at home and it felt so differnt to only take a 5 minute shower, my parents I didn't really have a challenge for the reusable water bottle though because I use glasses for water.  I really enjoy doing the eco challenge because it opened my eyes to things I never noticed before. I love being able to make a difference in our environment no matter how big and small it is. Im defiantly going to continue to do the challenges even after the event is over because its fun to challenge myself to help the environment.
