Fundraising
My school has been selling hot chocolat and then went around asking for change for this fundraising thing. They're raising money for some orphans or such in Africa or somewhere over in that direction.
Okay. That's nice and all but what about our country? There are plenty of shelters, charities, people, etc right here that could use money and such. We should be taking of our people first and then worry about others. It just makes me mad.
Me and Thomas were questioning one of the girls who was helping out with the fundraiser. She was getting angry at us because we were asking why couldn't we donate stuff to a charity or something like that here? Why send it all the way to another continate(sp?)? What's so bad about caring for your own country?
I also miss my junior high in TX. Every christmas, they'd post up these tags with names of children on them, and what they would like as a gift. I'd pick a couple and go out shopping and stuff. It's really alot of fun. It made me feel good. Here, they probably wouldn't even know what I was talking about. But my mom got a tag from the skating place, so we got something for a 9-year old girl.
Doesn't anybody understand the christmas spirit here in WA?
