was in no mood yesterday.
not sure why.
but then again.. maybe i do.

i wanna thank the ones who tried cheering me up.
thaank you! =)

*da daap da daapp* x)

and the call, even tho short,
is good enough to not make me
sleep with a bad mood.
thanks yeahh.
again.


hooooh.
had geography.
and as usual, at the avt.
we went through the test paper
and thong wanted to show us a video tape
about the current topic we're studying on.

population explosion.
the documentary explained how its gna happen.
the world can only hold on to 6000million human beings.
right now, its... [i forgot the figure]

niwaes.
they showed the densely populated areas like
bangladesh.
the area was so cramped.
squatters here and there.
the roads were filled with more humanbeings
than vehicles.

and in africa.
barren land. hardly any green trees.
alot of mud houses.
little kids lined up. all topless
and bloated.
malnutrition they say.

kids as young as 3yrs old had to get wood for the caregivers
in exchange for a handful of rice. wet rice. not porridge.
the documentary showed a tall skinny boy aged around 9.
he was limping at one side.
the legs were twice as small as mine. maybe thrice.
veryvery thin. i could only see the bones.
hardly any flesh.

at that moment,
i almost cried.
tears nearly run down my cheeks.
but people was around me, you see.

then they showed the problems the world will face.
depletion of the forest,
decreasing of natural resources
and limited land spaces.

after a few more minutes,
credits rolled up.
lights went back on.
and all i did was stared at the blank screen.
the show moved me.

anything i could do to help..?
