group to go clean and plant mangrove plant as well as cleaning an old house contain lots of rubbish and
untidiness. The group that they have separated will take turn in doing all the activities. For an example, I
am in third group started up with cleaning the old house, the change the section to planting mangrove
and lastly reached to do the fish trap one big one and smaller one. As I was doing smaller one. It is really
a very good experience for me and my colleagues. Lastly, the ending of our activities, we were given
certificates and also souvenirs. It was a very dedicate experiences that gives realisation and also concern

EXPERIENCES.
Our journey start on 21st Nov 2019. It is the day we have done our second project on preserving
environment with WASM. I have learnt a lot of things such as on how to plant a mangrove, how does
fishing took place, the soil of mangrove plant, new types of animals such as fish and crabs, the level of
water rise, about the fishermen and environment tidiness. These experiences really made my day. I have
done, touch and smell the environment of sea, swamp forest and also boating ride. First I went into the
cleaning of an old house of fishermen. The house was littered with rubbish of papers, comb and blankets
are unfolded. As a lot of them was cleaning downstairs but I went upstairs and cleaned up the praying
place and certain rooms.
Next station was in the sea. All of us was very excited especially me, was very excited because
going to plant mangrove by sailing in boat. We was about five people in the boat. I have explored a lot of
things such as the smell of the sea water, the fresh wind about the sea and boat sailing with life jackets.
These experiences made me to learn about wearing the life jackets, safety and measures that should
followed while and when sailing in the boat. Adding on, I also have explored different types of animals
and fishes. For an example, archery fish nearby the boat parking, the blue crab and their babies, tiny
crabs with half growth that running out from the soil. Basically the area was a swamp area, I was disgust
at first side, then I were used to it.
During the journey on the boat, I was thinking how the fishermen staying there without any
advance facilities either then basic needs. There are children who is studying under dark. When I
empathy towards them, I just would like to thank God that given me all kind of facilities. Next, was the
making the fish trap. There is guider who taught us on doing fish trap. We made the fish trap using
pliers. The fish trap made by iron steel net. We have to use our extra energy to turn the iron steel net
according to the shape that we want and cut it. I have taken the small one because I knew that I am not
the strong girl to do the big one. Not only that, the guider also told us on how to use the fish trap. The
uses of different size of fish trap is to catch different size of fish. So finally, we are done. We had our
lunch over there and also tea. Finally, along with our souvenir, we moved from there and reach our
school at 6 in the evening.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, the whole project 2 was done in very excellent way. Besides that, we don’t have
any misunderstandings throughout the project. We have done our duty according to our own
responsibility. The project really gave me in depth meaning of one’s life and their cost living. It also
encourage me to put interest on the environment and majorly on how to preserve it in right. There is no
harm should be done with any creatures that created by God. Not only that, the whole project had
closer my relationship with my classmates. Therefore, the whole project 2 was extraordinary and
realistic. Thank you to our lecturer that bought us to this place.
