Nosheen Idrees Miss Pakistan Earth 2008 kept a little detail of what happened in the day to day events in the Miss Earth 2008 pageant. This is a very great contribution from her as the future Miss Pakistan Earth delegates can learn about the activities and fun Nosheen had in the Miss Earth pageant.
Even though the pageant is over I would like to continue to make changes to make our planet a safer place to live. I would like to educate the younger generation about issue's regarding our climate change and what can be done to change this...I will be organsing activities and love for you all to be part of this. So keep a watch out for future projects and thanks for taking the time to view this page! This was an amazing experince overall with lots of up's and down's but I'm so happy to have had the chance to be part of it! Hope you all enjoy the pictures! Nov 11 - I'm going back home today and I'm kind of sad, most of the girls have already left! Feels wierd being here for so long and now returning home. I feel like I've been here forever...I'm going to miss Miss Bhutan (Tsokye) & Miss South Africa (Matapa) the most because they were my roomies!

All the other girls were really nice to but these are the ones I spent the most time with and got to know the most.Group 3 flew to the beautiful Island of Coron which was truly a paradise! If you ever get the chance to travel to the Philipenes I would recomend you to visit Plawan.
Oct 21 - Today went to a local school visit with Miss Sweden, Miss Czech Republic, Miss Jamaica ect..The visit included tree planting with the children from the school and spreading our individual messages about to save Planet Earth.
Oct 20 - Just arrived at the airport in Manila, Philipenes as the hottt weather hits me. Miss malta was on the same flight as me and I didn't even know! I flew with Emirates and the journey has been longggg. We were greeted at the airport by some of the members of the Miss Earth organisation and also by some local press.Later checked in at the Traders Hotel with other candidates such as Miss South Africa and Miss Malta. Have an hour to get ready for our calender photoshoot which is taking place in one of the suites at the hotel. Later had a welcoming meal at the airport with all the other 85 candidates and some airline staff. My aim at this years Miss Earth 08 was to raise awareness about air pollution in Pakistan. I believe that introducing a congestion charge in big cities like Islamabad and Lahore is a step forward to reduce air pollution in the country. My message is to use more bio-fuels and using different methods of transportation such as bicycles to make our country a safer and a cleaner place to live for the population today and other generations to come.Mother Earth protects us so we should protect her.Besides being the 3rd largest beauty pageant in the world, Miss Earth's aim is to educate and raise awareness of enviromental issues around the globe.
