i have to honestly admit that i am totally mushy today.
here i am sitting with the radio on real loud listening to Kylie Minoque right now, but the reason i am listening is about the tsunami fundraising today. Major commercial and non-commercial radio-stations have teamed up today with the name 'Radio 555' (555 being the main Dutch bank account no. that will raise money and spread it over org's like red cross etc.).
DJ's are competing each hour to see who raises the most money and it is completely unfuckingbelievable how much money people here (and elsewhere in the world) are giving.
Almost everywhere, whether in a village or large city, you'll see people doing weird things raising lots and lots of money today. it is amazing.
Here in the Netherlands we have broken our previous record of raising money, which was 52 million euros for kosovo in 1999.
Right now it's already over 56 million but many expect it might even double today, being the major nation-wide fund-raising day.
a lot of these small and large initiatives are quite original and sometimes even hilarious!
this gives me a bit of faith in humanity now. :')
awww..
yes, well i am mushy now, if you'll excuse me i am going to listen to Wham now!

Apparently Michael Schumacher donated like $10 million towards relief efforts. Which way more people with that kind of cake should be doing. But every little bit counts, keep fighting the good fight janne!
