Finally, school has started! At least the meetings have. No matter how boooriiing the meetings were, I was in such a good mood juz now. The new CT actually asked me why I seemed so happy. I must look crazy in her eyes. Hehe...I can't help it! I've been bored to death @ home. It was nice to see so many familiar faces...and of course there was an opportunity to show off my new phone. Hehehe...juz kidding.
Anywayz, I juz wanna say something abt the terrible disaster that has struck our neighbouring countries. I feel so sad after watching the pictures of the damage that had been done. My heart goes out for the victims and their families. One particular disturbing image in my mind is of this mother who keeps shaking her baby hoping that he will wake up. She kept crying out and didn't wanna accept the fact that he was dead. I can totally understand how she feels. I cried looking @ that footage. I can't imagine how I will feel if I lose my Khairina Adrienne. There's this other story in TNP today. This mother was holding on to her daughter but lost hold of her when they were swept away. Imagine that. U have your daughter in your arms one moment and the next, she's gone forever. They found the body of her daughter in a field dead. For the locals, it's not juz the loss of their loved ones, it's also the loss of their homes, their treasures. They practically have nothing except for what they have on their backs.
The most heart-wrentching thing to me is the fact that many of the dead are kids. They juz didn't have the strength to run away in time. When they got swept away, they didn't have the strength to keep themselves afloat. So many innocent lives lost juz like that. They didn't even have the chance to grow up and enjoy life. So sad right?? Sigh...And there's no one to blame except Mother Nature. Why wasn't there a warning anyway? I thought technology should be advanced enough for this?? Suliana Hot Momma at 3:24 PM
