Thursday, May 15th, 2008

Till now, it’s almost 90 hours past from 5.12 14:28. it’s a terrible moment, all chinese won’t forget!

i was doing my job on internet that moment, suddenly, a QQ news message jumped out: 7.8 (degree) earthquake accurd in Wenchuan Sichuan!  i was really afraid and suprise and worried, because my hometown is Leshan, Sichuan! my parents and all family are in Sichuan! i was checking the map while i calling home, my mom’s sellphone, my dad’s sellphone, but all no receive. after i found it’s more than 400 KM from Wenchuan to my home, i got first breath. but my young sisters were in Chengdu, some in college and some just having their first job. i didn’t know if they could take care of themself.  i can only pray…

after 10 minutes my father call back to me. he said they were ok, just scared by the 5 minutes terrible shake, he hold my mom and hidden in the corner.  luckily, after 5 minuts, it stopped, they have change run to the open street! And they tell me all the family men are all no injured.   Thank godness!

but the people live in more northen area are not so lucky. till now, more than 19000 lives lost, it said, there are about 50000 people will die in this terrible disaster.

except this, everything after the quake is warm us. The center government action at first time, only 1 hour and half after the quake, are prime minister started flying to disaster area, be with all the people! then, CCTV-1 start speacial living broadcasting 24 hours* 3 days, tracing the progress of all disater area. whole country people can watch TV and get the latest news from Sichuan.

Although my family and friends are all right, but i can stop myself turn off my TV and not to think about Sichuan. because in disaster, Chinese are all in one!
