EARTH!

Sorry for the late assignment.

My head is spinning like a top. The pain is killing me. I feel as though a hammer is hammering nails onto my head every second. I guess that is how the Earth is feeling. While my parents and everybody in the house are helping me to recover, most people in the world are destroying more and more of the Earth. Yes, there are a couple of people who are trying to help save it but sadly it's only a scace amount. We are destroying Earth at a rapid rate, most of us knows this but we are to ignorant to care. By the time we realize, it may be to late.

On the 28th of March, there's this thing called Earth hour. It was when some of us off all our lights oin one syncronize hour. My family took part in it. But, when i look out of my window to see the opposite block of flats, only 2-3 household units took part. I thought almost everybody would take part but i guess not. If you look it in another way, at least we are taking small steps. Like the saying goes, a journey of a thousand miles, starts with a single step. At least some of us are doing our part, which is something to be thankful for.

We are the cause, and we are also the solution for GLOBAL WARMING!

Ouchh or Ouhh

Question 1:
I've done a lot of things that leads to pain. For example, when i was young(primary 1) i use to touch the iron, when it's hot and obviously scale my hand. Or tried rolling down the staircase out of curiosity just to find out how it feels like. And it was actually fun but i ended having bruises everywhere. But that wasn't really painful. The most painful experience I've been through that is so unbearable i could die is when i poke my ear till it bleed. I didn't do it on purpose this time. It was definitely an accident. I have a habit of putting cotton bud in my ear after bathing. Of course after i put on my clothes and all and after 2 minutes, I'll take it off. It's just my way to clear the water. On that day, I forgot and i lie on one side on the bed, and that made the cotton bud to go in deeper in my ear. I felt liquid oozing out my ear when i look at my pillow, i saw BLOOD! Yes and i screamed. That's when i know the difference, i can't really hear myself but i could hear people around me clearly.I was rushed to hospital, And now I'm alright(or maybe almost). The pain was excruciating. I was probably half dying( i can see a white light) haha, I'm joking. This was probably the cause of why i talk loudly, cause i can't really hear myself and so i think people can't hear me but I'm actually shouting at them.

Question 2:
the use of alternative medicine is becoming very widespread . why might this be so?

I think it's probably because some people just prefer the traditional methods and it actually does work. And instead of taking all that medication(drugs) for weeks, alternative medicine can stop/lessen the pain effectively, most of the time. Like my aunt, she can't really walk and after going for a traditional Chinese massage or maybe reflexology (for a few time), she's walking now.She said the pain decreases in time after the massage. Maybe, not really walking normally(half limping) but at least she can move from a place to another without a wheelchair or any help.
Or, maybe because people get side effects due to the drugs(medicine) that is needed of them to consume to ease the pain. And it's obviously unpleasant. So, they try the alternative way. However, some people still prefer the Western medication. Maybe because it's convenient for them or they're probably not use to traditional medication. So, i guess that's all.

SUPERHEROES?

I really like the Freedom Writers. Why? I'm not really sure. It's really cool. They are like the superheroes of themselves. The hold class including the teacher. They overcame all the obstacle that are in their way and that is really something to look up to. And it is amazing how someone can make a drastic change in peoples life. I really like how Mrs G never gave up even though her life sucked. (sorry for the use of that vocab) Or is going to suck. I really pity her but it didn't bother her in school at all. She's great...

everyone needs money

No, your lesson isn't boring. Okay, maybe a little. But it's not bad.
What i think about microfinancing?
I think it's brilliant. It is. I mean poor people don't actually need money. I mean they do need it. But, it will just run out if we pass them the money and not help them get jobs and stuff like that. (our money->them->use up->ask more->give money->)and it won't stop.

I don't think micro-financing can stop poverty. Maybe the numbers will decrease but not stop. But with the help of the money from charity it just might, but in time,slowly.

I think the poor in Singapore is fairly treated. Why? Not many people take notice of them. Not many help them. Reasons?
-Quite a number of people these days are ignorant. They don't care what's happening to people around them.
-People don't trust the charity campaign because of people like TT Durai causing them not to donate.
-The people themselves are going through a hard time so, they can't really help.
-Some people have the thinking that:- why should we help charity? Nobody offer any help when we were going through hard times.
But, on the other hand some people do help(financial assistant scheme and all that). I think they are fairly treated.
I guess that is all...

new year resolution

Obviously almost everyone's New Year's resolution's going to be the same. Ouhh, i am going to get thinner, i am going to save money, i am going to exercise more. But i don't think anyone will actually follow their resolution. Well, maybe some. But the rest, they'll try but i don't think they will follow through for the whole year. I guess i am one of them. I don't really have any particular resolution that i will really follow through except for 2. Every year i keep making a new resolution but i will actually forget it in time. Is it just me? And some, makes the same resolution every year because they just seem to fail or like the resolution so much or have nothing better to do.
