woo! am watching live earth now...not too bad, not too bad.

i mean like it's a nice concert, some nice performances...although there were some which i have never heard nor seen the artists before...but still it was nice. and i think the whole concept of it is rather new, unique, a music marathon of 24 hours in seven continents to help save the earth? yeah, it's good, music is indeed influential. and it's global, cool eh?

but still, there's an irony to it. you see, the music that the artists sang were not really associated with saving the earth...and usually by having concerts, people will gather and create more litter when the concert is finished. that's what i think, but it may not be true.

and i just thought that maybe there's a better way of going about in spreading the message of saving the earth and to create the awareness of global warming. i think that having a concert might run from the focus of saving the earth, and some people will just listen to the music and forget the main cause of the concert in the first place. haha...and today, two incidents really made me see just how ppl still do not really care about saving the earth.

while i was walking home from meeting my friend, i saw two kids, probably 6 year olds, littering. they dropped their macdonald cokes on the floor on purpose and also littered like tissue papaer and food. only 6 year olds? hmm...

and then at sim lim square, while accompanying my brother to buy his mp3, people were giving out papers advertising the things they were selling...and they even forced me to take the papers. i didnt want to accept the papers they were giving out initially as besides having no meaning to me, as in i couldn't care less about the items they were selling, i also didn't like the sight of people wasting paper. and they just shoved them into my hands. what else can i do? so i just took them, and pondered upon the live earth concert that was going to take place today, and in contrast, these bunch of ignorant people who only think about making money and not on the damage they have done to earth and how stupid they are in not realising that a teenager like me is not interested in computer or computer parts.

haha, oh well, the live earth concert was still nice. the guitarist for rihanna was wicked. and so was the guy from motherwolf.

i just hope to see change in people, why are people so ignorant of the environment and the earth? lol, i'm not crazy ok, but i learnt that if you don't take care of the environment, you would destroy yourself. the earth is all we got.
