yet another tsunami?

currently taking a break off from studying my network communications.
:) so reading some news.


saw today's the new paper on sunday.
headline news is: TSUNAMI AGAIN?

yesterday Chile had a huge earthquake of 8.8-magnitude leaving at least 122 people dead.the tsunami waves unleashed itself after that..
experts are warning of waves as high as 2m crashing into the coastlines of Pacific Rim nations.
& that includes Asia, phillipines, new zealand, japan & taiwan.
New Zealand's ministry warned that the tsunami could hit the country's east coast at 7.05am today.
Australia officials said that the tsunami would only be visible from about 8.15am today.
in Japan, a tsunami will reach the east coast around noon today.

after reading this article, i think we all should feel very blessed to be living in Singapore.
because Singapore is blocked by countries like Malaysia, Indonesia etc.
thus, we are less prone to these kind of natural disasters.
and that, we are counted to be very very lucky.
even though there are natural disasters, at most all we can feel is only the tremors, the shakes
of the earthquakes.
but look at those countries nearer to the coastal line...
what they experience is many many more times worse than us.
they experience the quake, literally.
and once it comes nearer, it's just like the end of the world for them.
you won't know which minute you'll be still alive or dead.

so i think all of us Singaporeans, or those living here, should really count our blessings.





hmm..suddenly i became like on of those newspaper reporters or editor right? haha
i am too bored. so i thought of writing my feelings about this tsunami article. :)
i am really lucky...
to be a Singaporean,
to have a family with me,
to have a protective & doting boyfriend,
to have a proper house to live in,
to be able to eat what i want,
to do what i want,
buy things...etc.
those are my blessings. what's yours?


LOVE, Demi.
