Help the Poor - NOT

Help the Poor - NOT

This is going to be a short post. It looks long, but trust me, it really isn't.

Today is the day The Forever Song by Julie Kagawa comes out!! :D I've been waiting forever. I can't wait to read it :)

And also, the cover for Marie Lu's The Young Elites was released a few days ago. It's so purrrty :3 But doesn't it look like the bottom has been cut off?

On another, less happy note, I found something...interesting. It's kind of sad, but it's very true. I think it speaks quite a bit about human nature.

People may say whatever they want and act all righteous, but when it comes down to it, does anything really get done?

Only a disappointing amount.

And I'll just leave you with that thought in mind.

Happy procrastinating :)


P.S. I was debating whether to name this post "Help the Poor" or "F*** the Poor". In the end, I went with the less offensive one.

Inseparable Shih Tzu & Kitten

Inseparable Shih Tzu & Kitten

So that cute cat and dog picture in a previous post reminded me of this:

I think that that may be one of the sweetest, most adorable things that I ever saw.

Even without the pictures, that would still be an amazing story, but with the pictures, it's just so "awwwwwww." Lol yes I know my vocabulary is astounding, what with the whole awwwww thing. But still. Do those pictures not warm your heart? Or melt it?

*sigh* Such cuteness...

Buh-bye :)

What would you have done?

What would you have done?

So I'm supposed to be doing homework, but obviously I am not. Instead, I found this video:

Have you watched it? This did actually happen. The people's actions aren't staged, and the only actor in it is the boy. A hidden camera was filming this the whole time.

I know it's in another language, but the meaning is still the same. With all the things that we hear about happening in the world today, it's quite easy to forget that there is still kindness in the world. This video shows that we humans aren't entirely hopeless :) While it's what anybody should have done, I still find it quite touching. (I actually cried lol. But then again, I cry for everything.) To see those people give the boy their sweaters, jackets and mitts when they saw he was cold was really moving for me. But I also wonder what those same people would have done if it was not a child who was out in the cold. People tend to be more sympathetic toward children, so if it was someone else, for example a grown man who was out there, what would they have done? Perhaps it would have had the same result.

I hope that this inspires you to live with an open heart, just like the people in this video.

What would you have done?

Hugs,
