and i thought i wont be blogging today. but, well, here i am once again.
today was fine. met desmond to go buy my stuffs and we chatted alot. well, i'm doing most of the talking. he's quite quiet lehz.. haha. finally bought the cell material, photocopied and bought josh's present like finally. these 3 things, i spent a bomb. can you believe it. i went out with 2 blue note, and back home with 1 or 2 red note. ahhhh. that's how much i spent today. well, its worth it i suppose. first 2items for my little girls and the last item for my bro. oh well.
anyhow, i was at the mrt station and i noticed how students get "forced" to donate by those charity hounders. hey wait a minute. i support charity. really. i just dont like the fact that the people who are selling charity ticket are being paid to do so. it's not charity anymore. so my 2bucks is part of paying your workers money. i'm sorry i'm just very skeptical about these. moreover, the people these charity hounders prey on are students. and when they say they dont have enough money, they will go"its only 2 dollars, just try to pool the money you have to do a good deed" like come on, if i wanna do a good deed, its not gonna be forced out of me right. goodness, i despise them. well, not to that extent, but ya larx, you all get what i mean?
you know, i'm someone who really stand on my church vision/mission, blessed to bless. but no, i dont want to be paying people their wages. the 2 dollars i donate have to be entirely towards charity. i wouldnt even mind giving 10 or 50bucks as long as i know its entirely for charity. and you know, it gets exceptionally irritating when they tell you like"its only 2 dollars, i myself have donated alot. just another 2 dollars wont kill you" someone did this to me before. it was for the jamiyah children's home. i almost murdered him. he followed me from tampines mrt interchange to tampines bus interchange. in order to get him off my back, i gave that 2 bucks. ahhhh. its just WRONG WRONG WRONG to be making people donate for the wrong reason.
there was once this tv show on the charity donations, and these people who are being paid, well, they belong to this company who help the homes or organisations raise funds. and the boss say,"i dont think its wrong for organisations or homes to approach us to help them raise funds. i'm running a "business" so naturally i have to pay my workers their wages." so, charity has become a business? oh gosh. why cant singapore have volunteers like the youth challenge ones? i remember vividly there's this girl who belongs to the youth challenge, she was carrying this gardinia(i confirm spell wrong) box, then if donate 10bucks will get a pen. so corrin huiyu and myself were there, at orchard mrt underpass, and we saw her, we saw how she truely work for charity, and so we gave her 10bucks. this is what i want to see, people genuinely want to do their part for charity. money, if i lost it, i can still earn it, but i want to see the purpose bla bla bla. you know what i mean. anyway, i just despise these people, attacking at kids who dont really have enough cash to feed themselves at times and yet, are soft hearted and believe their sweet talks? ok, i'm being extremely judgemental and skeptical here. sorry.
and so, i dont know what's my plan for tomorrow night. HOW?! kaili kaili, please tell me your plan... ahhhh. ok. i'm bored. what's next? hmmmmm...
