Get out of the house and go play in the hay

"Heaviest rainstorms in 50 years drenched parts of Guangdong province over the past two days, killing at least 1 student and causing widespread flooding...... another primary school student and a high school student were missing...... 6500 people had to be evacuated from their homes...............the region normally experiences heavy rainfall about this time every year, but meteorological authorities said this was the worst in five decades." 
what the lime fuck is going on here. what a series of unfortunate events including manmade disasters: politics with tibet and the olympics, to natural disasters.. (need I name a few?  you all should be aware of them by now) . sure. political unjust is in the air we all breathe, unnecessary to go all bananas over, sure every two fifths of a decade the olympic's host becomes the target to the rest of the world (or at least those whose sorry asses couldn't feel more envious about losing a hosting status) , sure geographically with China being in the low lands and with a architectural culture that builds cities made of paper, who's really to blame when a quake hits and all hell is let loose. but massive fatality is beyond the imagination. when will it be enough. I'm extremely saddened by all the tragedies that has happened in my home country. (no i'm not from China but i still consider it my home). i'm sure there are unaccountable sore air-heads out there (i.e. sharon stone) commenting either silently in their air heads or loudly (i.e. sharon stone) to the general public how it all seems nothing but karma when it comes to the series of unfortunate events. and though displaying "publicized" apologetic (i.e. sharon stone) and sincere behaviors to "i-don't-have-a-brain" comments (although she had scored a higher than average IQ as a child), deep down i can't be too optimistic of such regretful behavior has really left the hatred attitude towards the Chinese.
well dayum i'm just plain mad.

Remember Me?

When twenty-eight-year-old Lexi Smart wakes up in a London hospital, she’s in for a big surprise. Her teeth are perfect. Her body is toned. Her handbag is Vuitton. Having survived a car accident—in a Mercedes no less—Lexi has lost a big chunk of her memory, three years to be exact, and she’s about to find out just how much things have changed.  Somehow Lexi went from a twenty-five-year-old working girl to a corporate big shot with a sleek new loft, a personal assistant, a carb-free diet, and a set of glamorous new friends. And who is this gorgeous husband—who also happens to be a multimillionaire? With her mind still stuck three years in reverse, Lexi greets this brave new world determined to be the person she…well, seems to be. That is, until an adorably disheveled architect drops the biggest bombshell of all.  Suddenly Lexi is scrambling to catch her balance. Her new life, it turns out, comes complete with secrets, schemes, and intrigue. How on earth did all this happen? Will she ever remember? And what will happen when she does?
