A gf of mine, Evie from 3BitterSweetLemon, whom I've run together to raise fund for Hope Malaysia & MDDB (Malaysia Dog Deserved Better) at the 10.10.10 Nike Run, sms-ed yesterday morning:
"If you've new socks and like to give it away, pls pass to me. We're sending it to Japan for the quake victims. Temperature is going down and socks is a direct aid which is the easiest to send. Adults or children sizes welcomed. You can attach a lil note for your recipient in English and attache it with a google translate into Japanese."
So, dear all blog followers of mine, I am going to do just that. Though I just used the last pair of my new socks, I will be heading down to the nearest mall later to grab another dozen or so for this purpose. Believe me, a pair of warm socks does make hell lot of a difference in that almost sub zero temperature. Let's help them in our little way. 100 pairs, 10 pairs or even just 1 pair, doesn't matter. Just attach a little note with words of comfort and send them out. Let them know we care and it will all be alright soon.
How? When? Where? Why? You can find out more info on this "SOCKS FOR JAPAN" drive over here:
Oh yeah, this is my translated little note in case you are too lazy to think of something to write or even get it translated into Japanese. Just cut & paste. ;)
"世界はあなたとともにおられます。そこにハング。信仰を持って。日本は大丈夫されます。 頑張って! ：）"
"The world is with you. Hang on there. Have faith. Japan will be alright. Gambateh!"
