Doing something funny for money

Wow, what a day. As you may know today is Comic Relief, a day where people do stupid things for money so that the lifes of the less fortunate can be improved. Usually i would donate money and do the silly games that school/college provided as my bit. This year i thought i would actually do something decent and dye my afro bright red. Used up a full can of some weird spray and i emerged from my house looking like frickin' Ronald McDonald. I got to the bus stop where i had a nice laugh with the sweet old ladies there, but no one donated. 

Anyways get to college (late due to the traffic) and instead of a wave of insane students doing crazy things (like it normally is) i see a drab crowd of blank stares. O goody.

I spent the day recieving looks of disbelief and "What the fuck?!" instead of the laughs and cheers that you normally see during this day. No donations, nothing. (Ok i know you dont have to donate but come on, tis for a good cause).

To be honest this just showed me how much the country has changed, no one seems to want to smile or have fun anymore. People complain about emos and self harmers, but seeing what i saw today you would think this was a huge convention of them. (Note: I have nothing against the Emotional music crowd, just using you lot as an example). 

The day wasnt a perfect waste however, i still got a few laughs from teachers and younger people, and i even helped a friend out with her relationship problems, im just sadly staring at an empty jar with the label donations on it. O well, im working overtime on Sunday, maybe i can donate just a little bit more this year.
