An environmental debate?

Kenny | Movie of the year: Kenny Begins | Ishlo pishlo! says:
I hardly understand how people survive there.

McAmelia : Inconvenience for a bunch of environmental fanatics. says:
oh well.. you don't need to.

McAmelia : Inconvenience for a bunch of environmental fanatics. says:
noone really cares about the siberians who freeze their butts off and die from cold.. when they're hyping about global warming.

Kenny | Movie of the year: Kenny Begins | Ishlo pishlo! says:
Huh?

McAmelia : Inconvenience for a bunch of environmental fanatics. says:
you know everyone is crazy about the global warming.. and saying it's bad.

Kenny | Movie of the year: Kenny Begins | Ishlo pishlo! says:
Well its hard for me to understand either way cause im just a small town guy.

McAmelia : Inconvenience for a bunch of environmental fanatics. says:
because they don't live in Siberia, where it's too cold to live properly and they'd appreciate some heat

Kenny | Movie of the year: Kenny Begins | Ishlo pishlo! says:
Yea well due to the global warming the ices in the antarctic and arctic and makes the sea rise and many animals have trouble finding food cause the food either moves or dies.

Kenny | Movie of the year: Kenny Begins | Ishlo pishlo! says:
Many plants and such are going extinct due to it.

McAmelia : Inconvenience for a bunch of environmental fanatics. says:
but new ones grow.

McAmelia : Inconvenience for a bunch of environmental fanatics. says:
if we don't allow some to go extinct, there won't be space to develop new, hardier plants and animals!

McAmelia : Inconvenience for a bunch of environmental fanatics. says:
and people need the clean water from the ice.

Kenny | Movie of the year: Kenny Begins | Ishlo pishlo! says:
The process of evolution doesnt just happen over a few years you know. Due to us humans we have started the change much earlier than planed by the earth.

McAmelia : Inconvenience for a bunch of environmental fanatics. says:
the pollution in the water we already have is bad.

McAmelia : Inconvenience for a bunch of environmental fanatics. says:
the earth could NOT have planned it.

McAmelia : Inconvenience for a bunch of environmental fanatics. says:
it's living, but it's not animate.

McAmelia : Inconvenience for a bunch of environmental fanatics. says:
and God gave the Earth to humans. Now we'll just have to face the fact that we ruined it

McAmelia : Inconvenience for a bunch of environmental fanatics. says:
instead of spending all that money and killing trees (for paper) to 'try' to reverse it.

Sometimes you bow in to the (unwanted) pressure.

If I had my own apartment, I'd have laser lights out the balcony, turn on everything I possibly could and charge all my phones and laptops and whatnot while everyone turned off their lights.

If they don't want their electricity, damn, I'll use it!

Now don't hate me yet, you Earth Hour fanatics.

MY LIGHTS ARE FRICKING OFF.

My mum insisted. And my cousin works with WWF so if I didn't turn them off, I'd be disowned I think!

And Jocelyn asked me very nicely to, so I did.

But we're all doing this because someone else asked us to. Some environmental fanatics brainwashed us into believing ONE HOUR of electricity-less life will help the world. Okay, I'll admit, it'll slow down global warming for about an hour, but it's TOO LATE. The money spent on advertising Earth Hour and printing T-shirts and rubber wristbands should have been spent on TECHNOLOGY CONVERTING CARBON DIOXIDE INTO FUELS, OR FERTILISER, OR SYNTHETIC MATERIAL! The amount of PAPER they printed on to advertise the stuff NOT ONLY killed the trees that, IN FACT, USE THE CARBON DIOXIDE TO MAKE OXYGEN, but also killed OTHER animals that the WWF is supposed to protect.

So much for saving the earth.

Not like life isn't already dark enough right now.

What they should be doing instead, would be sending out letters to governments to shut down ALL factories at the expense of the already-dead economy, ban smoking which would cause a whole lot of people to start a rebellion, and giving people money to stop using their gas-emitting bikes and cars.

They should stop producing food like beans, that makes people fart, because fart contains greenhouse gases.

We should all commit mass suicide so we stop breathing out carbon dioxide.

Before that, we should kill all animals who also fart and breathe, so that we reduce the concentration of greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere!!





I am not against the Earth, not one bit.

I just think that since God already gave it to us, and our forefathers already ruined it, we'll just have to live with it till we can't anymore! He'll make another one for us, He loves us enough. Be grateful with what you have. Trying too hard to change things only make it worse! I've proven my case in the longest paragraph so far.

Anyway, I hope the power surge at 2130 hours here later doesn't burn all generators and transmitters!

Oh and Carolyn.. I miss you already!

I'll miss you, I do.


Yes, Happy 19th Birthday to Adila-kins, whom I have known for about.. 4 years now.
And appreciated every moment of it! :D
I hope you had a greeeeat day, because you deserve to smile,
and ILIANNA, Thanks for making Dilakins so happy!

Other than having a pretty sweet little cupcake today, and getting to see my Baby looking sizzling and acting unusually passionate and clingy (insert big grin here), my day was pretty normal.
Though..

My parents went to Bali for a few days last week, and WOOT did we have a great time at home! It wasn't so much the
MARGARITAS

from Wednesday through Friday, or the quiet lack of nagging.. Probably the more freedom in getting home and doing and eating whatever we felt like. Just Alithea and I. Adeline went off for camp as well. So it was like, wow, responsibility-free weekend! Adelyn's party on Saturday was pretty fun too! We got to swim and play around in the pool in the hot sun. Carolyn carried me in the water! That was super fun. I've never been carried like that before by anyone. :) And the amount of cocktail sausages I had.. crazy!

I missed my parents though. And now that they are back.. We have

GODIVA

to drool for, dresses, slippers, whatnot from the somewhat-shopping-paradise. I say somewhat, because it's well known that tourist spots always inflate their prices to cut tourists' throats. The exchange rate though, makes most things extremely attractive to buy,
hence,
the brand new bottle of
Chivas Regal
in our larder someplace. :D

Sounds like loads of fun, right? I can't wait to have Mich, Bel and Shaz over for drinks (Shaz has to have orange, or lemonade or something), mythology, basketball and holiday planning!

And I can't wait for my Baby to get back from silly silly camp this Sunday. I hope I go for evening mass! :D

Twinkles is sick again. And he's made me worried crazy. I don't ever get why people with a serious enough sickness would want to stay home and try to get better on their own. SIGH.

Well for now I think I've talked about my most exciting event for the past week. College was just some mock exams here and there, more lame jokes from my Mechs lecturer, TOO MUCH HOMEWORK, AND not enough love! Baby been busy too. :P

Love you guys! :D

I almost love you, can almost feel your kiss.

Now almost can be taken as a good thing, or a bad thing.

Like what Larkin says. Things can be almost as good as love.

Or it's so unreachable that every other effort is only ALMOST there. It'll NEVER BE there.

Like you, today. Just so impossible to reach. And I now know how he feels. Never having me there when he needs me most. Sometimes you're just always there, and I'm afraid of suffocating you, but now, when I want you most, you can't be there.

And I have to take it, or leave it. It's the only choice. I don't own you, and things can't be like how they are for other people. Sometimes I believe they are, but tonight has proven me wrong.

I don't regret you, still. I'm so in love.

And that's why it hurts.

Can one's brain overload?

When I say I have too much work,

I MEAN IT.

Scholarship applications, homework, exam preparation, tuition.

Have to clean my room again sometime soon. Sort out my books and certificates.

And my sister and Carolyn been so awesome to help me with little things that help me give me time. I can't wait till Friday and Saturday! I'd be able to go and let go of all these things and have a good time.

Today though, was fantastic.

Your kiss is as soft as a summer's breeze,
Comforting, pleasing, soothing to the mind and soul.
If the world were to end,
I wouldn't mind.

I had the best of it today.

It's funny how you don't care who's watching when you're up there,
When you care so much when you're down with them.
Life never ends when I'm with you, darling.
And I replay your kiss over and over,
While life lasts.

Is this the sweetest poem you've ever read? Perhaps not. But "all good poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful emotions," -William Wordsworth, so cheer-oh!

I'm just a little too not over you.

Evidently, that piece of the song from that 17 year old boy has been in my head and out my mouth all day! I think I've annoyed Michelle out of human limits. :D

Tatsuki came back to college today! Thanks, Tats. :) You made my one hour before Econs super awesome! I wish you had stayed. But my pleas fell on deaf ears. Not sure whether it was yours, Mr. Lawrence's, or BOTH! You looked nice today.. SUPER TINY. You need to put back every ounce of that 8 kg you lost soon! Eat more. And have a good time at Redang. I hope you like your Valentine's Day card, and present!

All in all it was a pretty good day. Right now i'm actually waiting for the dilapidatory cream on my legs to work. I got to see Baby in the last 3 minutes before I had to leave. That was a nice surprise because i had already told Baby i was leaving, but i saw you anyway, right? ;) I got so many stares while waiting for you at LH8. I eavesdropped on a few people too and that was kind of funny. You're NOT going to fail anything because you are so so smart you scare me with your kiasu-ness. You're not even Singaporean! :P

Michelle, Shaz and Bel went to Hartamas. They ended up in Plaza Damas shopping, I think, and they bought some awesome tofu stuff made into crisps. That was good. Yummmm. But they went without me because I had stuff to do and Baby to wait for. So i hung out with Ashikin and Adila for a bit.. that was kind of fun, considering we hardly spend ANY time together nowadays. And i got to be with Hitakshi today too, so it felt like school again! :)

Will is leaving again, for Penang tonight. And this time I'll miss him, but, I'll cope better. Is it conditioning? It was fun taking pictures with his not-so-new HTC, and talking about insulin levels in the blood or something like that.

Life is pretty normal.

And that's why I loved today. I even got to show a Mechanics question in class. :) I did something even Michael couldn't do! :D So bangga. Let's just pray I remember how when I need to for real. It's hard when you've got a porcupine-haired guy who's umm.. pretty *ame to be a lecturer. I'm so mean. I know I can be REALLY lame at times too, but who cares, right? I do what makes me feel good. Alex inspires me sometimes. HAHA.

I've rambled a bit too much today, I should think. I just can't help going on and on about things I'm passionate about. Or people, rather. I love you guys loads!

Tomorrow is Banana-Leaf rice day! Yayy!

Will we ever stop wanting?

Coming home on the LRT today I was thinking to myself about getting a nice, short, black tube dress for Easter. Or, well, any other occasion. As long as it looks like how I want it to look.

Walking home I was thinking about getting a really high pair of nice black wedges to go with the little black dress. I've been craving to get those for ages! And i had this whole image in my head. Of myself, of course. Nude make-up and tied-up but falling hair. No accessories. Just a sexy phone in hand!

Voila, you've got a coveted Amelia for about an hour. Goodness! Will I ever stop wanting things? Wanting to look good? I don't know. And for now, I should think the answer is no. Sadly. Life is definitely a lot more than just the things you have and want, how good you look. But I'm at the age where everyone has something better that I don't. And I want too. Hypocritical of me, I must say, to conduct lectures about wanting with Carolyn.

I guess it boils down to whether I let these wants get to me.






But I haven't bought clothes or shoes in ages! *whiny face*

Someone, leave the light on.

And my someone-s are all talking to me right now. In their own ways, they're helping me cope with my breaking heart.

Let me tell you people now, LOVE IS NOT ENOUGH. It may be for about 8 months, but after that you can't have just Love any more. Things will fall apart and hearts will break. And then you'll end up a nervous wreck, crying your heart out because you thought someone recycled your University offer letter.

Carolyn, you know I love You. And I appreciate your trying to come see me tomorrow! I hope you'll be able to make it because you make me happy and you help me smile again. And you've got so much to learn about me, but we'll make do with what we have for now. I can't afford to think about more stuff. You're just about enough. :)

Matt, thank You for being so kind, caring and loving from all the way over there! I know you worry about me, but i promised I wouldn't do something stupid even though i was honest when i said I felt like it. I needed some kind of manifestation for the pain inside. But I'm going swimming instead tomorrow. Okay? Don't worry. Go off with Randal tomorrow. I'll miss you!

Kenny, you're silly. I do NOT use lipsyl of hand lotions and I probably won't for a few years. But talking about things like that and explaining tofu to you helped me to get my mind off you-know-what, and though you did make me cry harder about getting another offer letter earlier, I'm glad that chapter is over. Thanks! Even though you ARE taking forever to reply me!

You're killing me, softly. But I won't die. Not tonight.

(on a random morning, by sms)

Michelle: Amelia, a person known to us - but for his/her sake of dignity, shall not be named - has fallen into a well.

Amelia: And..?

Michelle: Oh, you're awake. And..well, was eaten by a crocodile :D

(some hours later)

Amelia: Michelle! They found our friend's dead body. It seems it was suicide. He/she was dressed in Gucci.

Michelle: Tsk, tsk. It must have been a mess then.. a foot here, a hand there, blood, guts floating about. He/she must have been quite huge since the croc can't even finish him/her off. Gucci? No wonder the croc ate him/her. Our friend must have been wearing it's mum!

Amelia: It seems it was Gucci. Could have been pasar malam goods. I think it's your fault. I recall you giving him/her the outfit, as you stole it! You monkey!

Romeo, take me, somewhere we can be alone.

Too many things have been bugging me, or at least affecting my discernment.

I want to go away. To my beach holiday. Scatter pictures and letters and cards in bed.. and read them when I'm with my baby. That would be just wonderful! Without anyone else, or any other cares in my world.

Without freakwits who like to defame friends for 'fun', it seems.

Or idiots who care only about themselves, and not for those who care for them. (Not you, ducky)

Why can't people be a bit more accommodating? Understanding? Diplomatic? It's like our world has degraded to nothing. We've got the morals and common sense and intellects of mere hobos! Well, at least hobos have a REASON to be idiotic! They don't fricking have homes! But we, blessed with friends and everything we need, forget about other people's needs or preferences.

And due to this I've lost respect for two people that I thought I knew before.

OH WELL. HOW HEARTBREAKING, RIGHT? Doesn't matter to me, really. I only want to protect, and I'll do it at all costs.

Kenny said he might not be going to the UK to study after all. Now that's not heartbreaking, but very disappointing, I must say. I was looking forward to having a big karate-fighting brother around town! He says he'll visit though. And Carolyn too! Better have Christmas this year with me! :)

Oh and on a random note.. Jon called me pretty girl today. And said I had nice hair. Outright flirting, I should think! Hahaha. It's fun to wonder whether he was sincere or not. And maybe even how many others would agree with him! But it was 'unilateral' flirting, it seems. According to a smart alec i know. I forgot to tell Pon what happened yesterday. Someone remind me!

Oh well. Life is short! I'm halfway over whatever has happened. And it won't bug me for long more.

I fell today! And i now have vintage jeans, and grazed knees. Hahaha I will picture soon, hopefully. :)

Love you guys!

I heart. (:

AND I HAVE :)

Dizzy spells.

Maybe the heat, maybe the abundance of thoughts I've had today, maybe the old man yelling on the phone who was seated right next to me, or the silly young girl clicking away her plastic bottle.

Maybe the fact that I'm returning to my habits.

Maybe the fact that I think maybe i exaggerated, maybe the fact that I'm stuck in between yes and no, because my friends agree with me.

Maybe the fact that I don't want my rash emotions to affect someone I love ever so dearly.

Maybe the fact that she just won't tell me.

Maybe the fact that my being concerned seems to mean nothing to an idiot, maybe because I know I won't try anymore, maybe because I haven't mastered the necessary, maybe the phone cover I'm obsessing about now.

I feel like I'm going to fall over, and vomit out the stuff I've been eating to prevent myself from vomiting. Goodness.
