I'm really suprised hardly anyone's written anything about this tsunami/earthquake. When it comes to natural disasters it seems people just aren't as sympathetic as they are when people are attacked by other people. The death toll may reach 75,000..and so many people have lost everything

I think nobody has written about the tsunami because its just another action sequence on television.
I am sad though, so many people died, and they are still finding casualties.

Yeah one of my friends donated money..once I get a JOB then I'm def going to do that as well.

I've got some links up on my journal about how to donate to relief agencies. A lot of people on my friends list are also writing about it; I'm a bit disappointed that some of my real life friends and family aren't going as apeshit about it as they are over wars, etc.

I hope your brother and sister have a safe trip to Palestine. (And fun in Amsterdam...yay!) Where are they going?

The links are helpful to me..now I just need to get the money. :)

Thanks for the safe wishes- they are going to the West Back through Jordan. They should be in Amesterdam now. My sister brought with her lots of asprin (b/c apparently thats what they need right now) and some books about muralists like Diego Rivera and artists like Frida. When I talk to her I'm sure she'll have lots to say. She also has her video camera with her so..I'm hoping she gets great footage.
