Help for Typhoon Ondoy Victims in the Philippines
it doesn't exactly "tickle my fancy", but it's something i can and feel that i need to share, just about time this meme was put to good use. idk but i do hope you guys have heard about typhoon ketsana which ravaged luzon, philippines. the metro and outlying provinces were flooded, to say the least. death toll is at 240, people are still missing, and hundreds of thousands were displaced. google "ketsana" or "ondoy", i'm sure you'll find something more informative than what i just wrote.
as one of the few lucky ones, i'm trying my best to help out, but it's definitely not enough. i just thought that here's another thing i can do, maybe someone from my f-list can spare sth. there are ways to send in donations, both in cash or in kind, even from outside the philippines. we really need help. i've been refreshing news sites the whole day and things aren't improving quickly enough.
i may look like a hypocrite, because i'm not exactly going out there to physically hand relief goods out to those still stuck on their rooftops or anything (props to those people, oh my god), but i
genuinely feel bad about this whole thing and this is one of my little ways to help out, so please. never have i felt a natural disaster so real and so close in my life. as one of the few lucky ones, i feel obliged to do at least this. i might be capable of doing more, but for now, i feel that this can help.
another typhoon is coming tomorrow. oh, god. >_>
