haine caché
I know people have been asking me to blog. So I shall :DD
My sabbats are just soooo fun, EVEN WEIQI. It seriously is a fun game, especially when you play with Xuean, who always gives the game her all :D Even my dad has caught weiqi fever, he asked me to buy a weiqi set can?
Yesterday, Charis was ill. She caught syphilis from Alicia :OO (ooh alicia WHAT DOD YOU DO YOU NAUGHTY GIRL!)
Our class boards are FINALLY getting decorated. With fab design ideas from our very own POKEMONITRESS! Will post pics when it is finally up!
Watched a video on the treatment of the Hmong tribe in N. Thailand. They helped the US in the Vietnam War as they were promised US citizenship. But did they get it in the end? NOOOO, and now because of the participation, they are being LITERALLY HUNTED by the government of BOTH Laos and Vietnam. Other than that, the men are getting killed, the women and girls are ALL getting raped, and there was even this YOUNG BOY who had his intestines CUT OUT (they were overflowing out of his stomach!) and he was STILL ALIVE. THAT IS JUST INHUMANE.
What a cruel world we all inhabit.
Watched 'Sicko' after school for an IH assignment -.- I predict Jieying will have ALOT to say after she watches it. She will definitely reinforce her idea that "Singaporu wa ozoku desu." It is about how American healthcare system is SERIOUSLY FLAWED. If one does not have healthcare insurance, the hospital bills for ANYTHING can run up to thousands or millions of dollars. So it figures that one must have healthcare insurance right? BUT it will only be granted to certain people, and if you are too tall, too heavy, BMI idex too high... and many other conditions and reasons that run up to tens of pages that could probably go one round around a house, many Americans are stranded without healthcare. While the Al-Qaeda detainees on Guantaromo Bay and other countries such as France, Britain and even Cuba have free UNIVERSAL healthcare. The reason: They are a DEMOCRACY.
GO WATCH THE DOCUMENTARY!!
My new flat is a mess, what with the moving and all that.
I just hate myself sometimes, especially when I have to face her.
Why can't I be more courageous?
