"Please help our children!" - Get Real!

This is a very controversial issue and I know NOT everybody will agree with me.
But, I am going to say it.
I was stopped by a korean guy outside St. Lukes Shopping Center the other day.
The guy gave me a big smile and said: " Hi, we are collecting money for the World Child Support Foundation...", he took out a brochure to show me: "you know your money will not only be used for African Kids but also Asian Kids. These kids are really suffering. Some are starving and some never get education. And we are desperate to... ..."
"Excuse me", I couldn't listen for more and interupted him immediately: "I am so sorry I can't help you. I am really busy...so good luck with your collection!"
"Why not? why don't you show some care to those kids?" He said.
Well, That really pissed me off!
I said: " I beg your parden? You are here to collect money but not to judge others. I really don't have time to get myself into this kind of shit but since you have aksed, I will tell you why. Countries in Africa are much richer than New Zealand! Kanya exports tea, coffee, diamonds and has all the money from tourism. Kanya is so rich but why their children are starving? Because the government took it. The leader of the country has billions, billions of dollars in Swiss banks. He wears gold and eats crayfish for breakfast but he wouldn't help his own people! And now, you are standing here saying the bloody whatever Foundation can solve this problem? Get Real, mate!"
What a good start in the morning!
I was in a shitty mood during the whole day!
New Zealanders shouldn't be reponsible for what are happening to the kids in the world! What about the African governments? Those people from the Child Foundation think that they are doing a great job for the world. But honestly, they are not! They should protest the Africa governments rather than standing there begging for money!!! Do sth really helpful. Tell Bush to send his army to kill all the corrupt bastards! Tell the UN to take the money out from the Swiss banks to give away to the poor!
These Foundations are so pathetic!
Look at the problem areas in their brochure. Children from Africa, China, North Korean ect ect ect... Here I have a question? why there are no kid from Japan, New Zealand, America...? Is it because New Zealand is richer than China?
shit no, China has loads of money. God knows how much tax China government collect every year! You guys have 1.3 billion people. But New Zealand only has 4 million in total plus 75,000 young Kiwis leave our country to England, Aussie, America and Europe every year (Thank Labour for that!). 1.3 billion, mate, that's not funny! China has much much more USD than New Zealand. But now someone is going to tell me some Chinese kids cannot go to school because China is a developing country and don't have enough money to support them???
I will say: Good on you, China government! You have the spare money to host the 2008 Olympic but no money for your children! You have spare money to build hundreds of buildings in Shanghai but no money for your children! You have spare money to send those government delegation groups overseas but no money for your children! You have spare money to have thousands of official meetings every year but no money for your children! Then, Fuck you very much for doing a good job!
Okay, the story is not over yet.
This afternoon some kind of organization called us. Brad picked up the phone.
"Hi, do you know we have many young people trying to commit suicide every year? The main reason is that they don't have life skills. So our organization.."
Brad said: " I was born in a family with five kids. My father is an alcoholic. I grow up in a government house in the worst area of Auckland and I am millionaire now. So don't tell me they need life skills. If they want to kill themselves, they are losers! And I don't help losers!"
put down the phone and end of story.
For God Sake, what happened to this world? Everyone is moaning about they don't have a good life. Everyone expects you come to help them.
Grow up! bunch of wankers!

A song by Jay Chou(translated by Li Du)
columbus2 发布于 2007-11-12 15:22:28
发 如 雪
Hair flowing, snow falling
狼牙月伊人憔悴 我举杯饮尽了风雪
A crescent moon, cold and gray,
Is when my fair lady pines away
A cup in my hand,
Downing snow and wind of all kind
是谁打翻前世柜 惹尘埃是非
who upsets my former life
stirring up dust and grief?
缘字诀几番轮回 你锁眉哭红颜唤不回
Our fate is already written down,
No matter how many times it goes round.
hard and sad you wrinkle your brows
crying over beauty fading like the hours.
纵然青史已经成灰我爱不灭
Even if history goes up in ashes
my love never ever dies.
繁华如三千东流水 我只取一瓢爱了解 只恋你化身的蝶
of all the bustling waters flowing east in thousands
I only take one scoop to bear in minds
Obsessed with the butterfly
flapping in your after life.
你发如雪凄美了离别 我焚香感动了谁
Hair flowing, snow falling,
It takes beauty and sorrow to make a parting.
Whose heart is touched when incenses are burnt?
邀明月 让回忆皎洁 爱在月光下完美
Inviting the moon to light up a past,
full, and bright, the love shall ever last.
你发如雪纷飞了眼泪 我等待苍老了谁
Your hair flows as the snow falls
Scattering away hot tears
Who, in my wait, has advanced in years?
红尘醉 微醺的岁月 我用无悔刻永世爱你的碑
Slightly drunken is the worldly Red Dust;
Regret-it-not is the memorial ever carved in my heart.
This is one of my favorite songs, sung by Jay Chou,and it is translated by Li Du , principal of New Oriental School, Wuhan.It is no doubt that Jay is a symbol of Chinese muscic.He totally changed our taste of the pop music,especially his Chinese music style,just like Dong Feng Po and Hair Blowing,Snow Falling.His new abulm "ON THE RUN" is put into market on Nov.2,worthy of being tasted. -

《面朝大海春暖花开》
海子
从明天起,做一个幸福的人
喂马,劈柴,周游世界
从明天起,关心粮食和蔬菜
我有一所房子,面朝大海,春暖花开
从明天起,和每一个亲人通信
告诉他们我的幸福
那幸福的闪电告诉我的
我将告诉每一个人
给每一条河每一座山取一个温暖的名字
陌生人,我也为你祝福
愿你有一个灿烂的前程
愿你有情人终成眷属
愿你在尘世获得幸福
