There's a song by Costeau called "The last good day of the year", and I guess that's today isn't it? But somehow it feels odd to celebrate the end of the year, what with the tsunami disaster death toll rising all the time. Tens of thousands die everyday from the time we wake till the time we sleep. Now I've just checked that it's 116,000. 116,000! How could so many people die? This is ridiculously sad. Everyone I know is doing some donation but really, it doesn't even come close.

Don't let this be the way the world ends. Please.
