sometimes the world is a beautiful place, other times...
01. Reading these articles on China's earthquake and aftermath makes me cry. A lot. I'm still nervous and excited about leaving for China in 4 days, but now I'm a lot more nervous than excited, and a lot sad. I'm traveling into a tragedy.
1.5. China scales down torch relay after quake. The International Olympic Committee is giving $1 million to aid relief efforts. (And Jay Chou donated 500,000元.)
02. Myanmar also makes me upset.
03. Obama has Edward's endorsement. Edwards going for VP, y/n? (Hillary says don't pick McCain over Obama like my dad wants to do.)
04. The polar bear is now listed as "threatened" on the Endangered Species list.
World, you are sometimes so unbearably sad.
