The last weekend was supposedly featuring the live earth day (07/07/07). A day to emphasize the need to preserve the planet from an inevitable end. " Its part of the "save the earth!" plan. Here's a fact: Earth like you and i, has a life span too. As to how long is that, there are many calculations, theories, hypothesises, believes etc. Nothing concrete enough though. In my opinion, I don't think it's going to be anytime within my lifetime. That explains why i am not as keen on all these as many other "earthists" are. However, now i think its only fair that as a fellow citizen (being such a citizen has brought upon me uncountable benefits. Think about it. Right down to your basic needs) of this planet i need to do my fair share.... of course there are some selfish thoughts involved too ( e.g. sth to extend of increasing your karma points; i wouldn't want to live through to see my kids getting burnt from playing outdoors... ). I should sit and think about how i can do my part in Small but many ways.



Media corp has been attempting to create an awareness amongst us Singaporeans. (Or so they say... for all we may know, its just a publicity thing.. .. increasing their network via "good deeds" as such, since, seven continents were involved). The ad basically went like "They were not exaggerating." They as in those who spoke of all the current hazards our planet is facing.



Mediacorp also mentioned - wear green to show ya support! (on 7 n 8 Jul) Well i didn't want to be the odd one out .. it isn't going to hurt wearing that colour anyways.. So i wore this pastel green and blue Coimbatore cotton chudi (perfect for comfort)... As i walked the streets and travelled in the mrt and buses .. A good majority were not wearing anything close to green at all... then again... there seemed to be a significant increase in the no. of people wearing green.. but it could be just a coincidence.. maybe it was because i was looking out for green outfits... whatever the case.. its obvious that mediacorp has failed.



Apparently other sources of media from other continents played their big part too (nope... not sun or vijay.. they were too bz 'ojahyeh ojah'fying or figuring out who is in who's heart) ... huge artists came in (Madonna; red hot chili peppers; Rihanna etc.) ... but well then... this might be a publicity stunt too. It's difficult to believe that one has no ulterior motive behind good deeds in this "man-eat-man" race (especially media).



This whole 24Hr continuous music concerts at different locations was called "concerts for a climate in crisis". Really just read that... any connection? OK so you entertain people and then they get enlightened that its time to be more environmentally conscience? Oh please! I somehow sense that this was a flop. I believe this was supposed to bring about a craze. Like, Sivaji! haha! But nopez . Purpose so defeated!

Then again it caught my attention... Applause for the efforts though... more of this will increase media network but .. about saving the earth... i don't know... perhaps, something better ? Better luck next time guys...

It's My say


Henceforth, i make a promise..

To respect myself
To know my worth
To treasure my integrity
To choose my faith
To never be deterred by emotions
To never stumble in the name of love
To never question hardship
To never ever entrust my heart
Upon one who knows not it's worth
