Hi everyone,

So so so so sorry for being MIA. I've been very, very sick and coughing like crazy. I've been through 2 bottles of cough syrup and now finally a third one! So funny, this third bottle is a brand of CHinese cough syrup that an Austrian friend of mine recommended to me when I went over to his place for pasta Tuesday night. It wouldn't have been my first choice to take it but it really works!!! Hmmm, maybe I should have "gone back to my roots" before the third bottle. hahahhaahha....

Anyway, I still have to show everyone the PETA t-shirt I got.

And more video diaries to come.....

;-))

When I was back in Singapore (for TARA 2 Press conference) and clearing up my old room and all my boxes. I found my folder of poems given to me from kids I've met at summer and facilitation camps. We always had one night called "Poetry Night" where the kids express themselves and write poems on the spot.

This is one of my favourite ones.... I'll write the words here in-case you can't read the picture. It was written by a 7 or 8-year-old in 1999. Amazing!


DAYS OF OUR LIFE

A candle is a good example of our life.

Life is short, learn as much as you can before you go.

There are millions of things in life, we must be content with what we have.
Having things are better than not having thing. Time will go forward and will never come back to that ONE and only moment.
Time fly and time & tide waits for no men.
Doing something bad, must be owned up and take ownership of it.
Great people have done good for mankind.

Peace is better than war, with everyone united, we will be strong and difficult to be defeated.
The biggest problem is that some people are not content with what they have.
Like a President of Iraq, he is a president but still wants to take over the earth.
Nobody is perfect to take over the world, only the great one stands tall and watch over all of us.
In this life if you do evil,
someone will do evil to you.

Here is another incredible poem by a kid we loved - Freddy. He has autism.

This was written in 1996. Freddy can't write so this was written out by his team-leader as he receted it out.


I AM

I am a good boy
I wonder that I understand.

I hear your voice
I see the TV
I want to do homework
I am a clever boy
I pretend to do something else
I feel very tired
I touch the window
I worry myself to go and see the doctor
I cry myself I am very angry

I am sick
I understand myself and I think
I say that I take a rest
I dream to do it immediately

I try to eat
I hope that I am very thirsty
I am a crazy boy.

Freddy
Malaysia 1996
