Go Pink for October




Ah, it's October again....Time to get that pink ribbon outta the box and show some solidarity & support and spread Breast Cancer Awareness around....I have been supporting this cause since 2003.....Got my ribbon this year from Delifrance but it looks a little weird. Too small.....and a lil too twisted around. So I'm still using my two year old one.

In America, Lee Jeans has declared this Fri (Oct 5th) as Lee National Denim Day ( http://www.denimday.com/). 'People are encouraged to wear their jeans and pledge abt 5 bucks to support the fight against breast cancer.' Now, I know people will always be cynical about the ribbon pins and perhaps even this idea constructed by Lee Jeans. But people, wake up. Complaining about it, is even worse than not showing any support. I mean if u find the ribbon-wearing ridiculous or this wearing jeans thing a facade of the real problem then well, you're certainly not doing anything either to help! It's a killer illness in the world. Hell why talk about the world when here at home it's as bad....A recent survey said 1 in 5 women......1 IN 5 WOMEN......that's not small...So come on now. Get out your pink ribbon, wear it proudly for the whole of October and show that you are aware of this ever growing problem and you support everthing that will be done to help fight the war against breast cancer!
