damn, you should slap those kids and tell em to get some respect. lol, but remember they are just immature kids, and the world revolves around them, so anything in the news is a joke to them, cuz if it isn't happening to them, then they don't care about it

No one at my school really says anything about it..
We watch a news program called Channel One everyday, and they've been covering the tsunami damage first-hand, but no one's really said anything about it. |

no. the students at my middle school don`t laugh about such a horrible tragedy. i can`t believe how shallow and immature those kids in ur school are. maybe they just cant take the truth, and laugh to nod off the problem so they don`t have to deal with it head on. our school is having a fundraiser...donating money...for all the kids that suffered from the tsunami. if i were u, i would tell off those disrespectable kids in ur school..they don`t appreciate how good they have it in the US.
edit // QUOTE:::: but our school is having this thing where if you pat $1.00, you get one little starburst... but okay, i donated 50 cents =) i dont understand how people are being BRIBED with candy. u should donate money because you WANT to...not because ur getting something in return. its called donating for a reason. |

QUOTE(bad_girl @ Jan 10 2005, 2:30 AM) nope. it was pretty funnny. lol the process i mean. cos we had this ceremony on friday.. like a remembrance thing in school. everyone had to wear green/blue to school and we each had to donate at least HKD20. we made like $146, 000 HKD that day. donating it all to Unicef. =]. back to the topic, no.. everyone was being quite silly. but there is a sad side.. i swear.  You go to school in Hong Kong? Whoooaaa. Anyway, I hate it when people start whining about how much coverage on the news something gets. Like, people who complained about too many news topics on the 911 attack. "Oh my God, who the hell cares? So, people died, NO ONE CARES. STOP TALKING ABOUT IT." I think that's very disrespectful, and sure, it might be a little repetitive, but what do you expect? Lots of people died in the 911 attacks. And hundreds of thousands died in the tsunami, so of course there's going to be a lot of coverage. People just need to respect those going through tragedy. |
