Actually, I think this is pretty cool. This American teenager raised $52K and that was enough to build a school in rural Cambodia.

Wow. In high school, when I read about the world's hardships, I continued to worry about boys.

If I were more caring and less lazy, I might raise money for a school. And if I were more caring and less lazy, my school would be called Audra's Academy of Awesomeness.

So it's probably a good thing for the downtrodden youths of the world that I am less caring and more lazy than this girl.

I think we should do it. The LoT School for Hedonism and Creativity.

I was sort of musing over the appropriateness and utter coolness inherent in naming a school the Lounge of Tomorrow (School)

Funny thing is, NA... if that's all it takes, it could actually be accomplished. I mean, $50k is a lot to save personally, but to fundraise? Not impossible.

Really, and who here is going to set out for rural Cambodia to check up on you?

It kinda make me want to start a non-profit center for hedonist research...
