Si Chuan Earthquake
Saturday, May 17, 2008

After looking at yesterday's newspaper and news, i find that I'm really lucky to be born in a safe country like Singapore.. Many children at the ' Si Chuan' were so miserable. Some died at young ages, some were still stuck down there(perhaps) and some were rescued but they need to amputate their hands/ legs/ other parts of their body. The most sad thing is when i saw a boy without both hands, it's so.....(sigh) One girl(maybe is her relative) said that before he amputate his hands, he begged the doctor not to amputate both hands but at least keep a hand, cause otherwise, he would not be able to hold things anymore...... But the doctor said that if he does not amputate both hands, he will die..... So the boy had no choice at all.

***************
I saw another girl in the newspaper. She had died on the spot and nobody cares about the body.
The heartbroken thing is that she was still holding on to a pencil in her hand when she had already died.... and i thought that if a person dies, the things they hold in their hands will slip?
She was holding on to a pencil because when the earthquake struck, the children were having lessons in the school and the school building collapsed onto the children. There's a picture that shows many schoolbags and the reporter says "who will come school tomorrow?"
Okay okay, i know that my post is long today so i will end here. Have a good day!( :

I went off @ 8:38 AM
