tsunami

i just saw on yahoo news that the death toll has increased to 40 000 people. it's such a horrible horrible tragedy. and the worse part is that it's not that far away from home. can you imagine if with God's will, the tsunami hits us here??! singapore will probably just disappear or something. my mother was telling me that if it were to hit singapore she will probably be one of the first to go, since she's working in sentosa. what a scary thought! i just feel extremely lucky to be here.

but then i cant help feeling really really sad. especially when i saw the news. did anyone saw what's left of phi phi island?!! so unreal! phi phi was my ultimate favourite island and now the whole place just looks so weird and nothing like what i see in my mind and our photos. btw did you guys see the dead bodies shown on the news? there was definitely a lump in my throat at that moment man..... the bodies were stiff. some of them looked like there were trying to cover themselves with their arms. the worst are the tiny bodies of the children, even toddlers! *gulp*

but everyone! on the bright side, this happened in the afternoon. proof that god still loves us? cuz can you imagine if this whole thing takes place at night when everyone's asleep?

let's all pray that things will get better for everyone in all the affected countries. because in life everything happens for a reason...
