That wave that had been building up is finally released. That wave of emotion splashes over me. The China earthquake victims. The Myanmar cyclone refugees. Its just so sad. A few days ago i said i didn't feel any emotion. Well, i feel it now. The death toll for both just keeps rising. I do not know which one has caused more grief, to me both are just horrible. Why did this had to happen? And the sheer atrocity of the Myanmar government not allowing aid. What's wrong with them? Saving lives are way more important than impressing your phony diplomats. Is admitting weakness really that bad? I promised not to swear on this blog as much as possible but i'l swear now. You bastards.

Part of the anger is lashed out towards myself too. What can we possibly do? Donate money? Our clothes? Food? Big help! All we can do are the small things that we hope will count towards helping the victims. We just sit here, feeling sorry for them. Damnit. At least it's better than nothing.

Well, at least China allowed aid from the west despite the Tibet issues. It would be really crushing if they didn't. Earlier this year there was a snowstorm in China. It seems that following December 2005, all sorts of shit has been springing up.

Well, what do we do at times like this. Just stand tall and live on. I know its easier said than done, but thats all we can do. I just... hope that this will end soon.
