heyx........today...my geo teacher told us the whole story about the tsunami disaster.....how the earth was created...u know...with the core in the middle...the mantle the next....and the crust as the surface area...then how the crustal plates either go against or into each other...and u know what....the plates either go against or repel against each other 5cm/year leh...wow....ok...then its like when the tsunami hit places like Sumatra...Sri Lanka etc....its because that the places are ABOVE the plate's boundaries....so its like coming up with a big force as the waves became like killer waves...thats what my teacher had said...as the speed and the power of what the waves can do...so it's like....OH MY GOD....................................so we singaporeans are lucky that Sumatra protected us......if not......there would be public swimming pools everywhere....
But from what i've heard from my teacher....there is one 10 year old girl who is i think pretty good at geography...she predicted that a tsunami is coming and told her whole resort to escape to safety....wow.....damn clever....as there is many islands in sumatra or something....and having to save one of it is quite a task well done already....and guess how many people did she saved???over a hundred.....imagine....having to even listen at what a 10 year old kid had said....even to Believe what she had said......wow.....she must have spoken in such a fanastic way man...being a heroine for a few is already quite a feat....imagine over a hundred.....that means that i really gotta brush up on my gepgraphy.....hehex....i hate that....memory needed....haix....there is also one indian guy....who lives in singapore....during Boxing day....if i remembered correctly....heard the news from indonesia and immediately called his hometown....thats a village....to escape as it needs about 3 hours for the waves from thailand that area to move to Sri Lanka.............and they are saved....wow........thats really unbelieveable..........anyways.....the next thing that i'm gonna tell u is even more amazing........one of the teachers in my school was caught in the tsunami........wow.....when the whole class heard that....we were thinking.....she might not have made it....as she is quite a big sized person....its mrs pandian......she was holidaying in Sri Lanka with her large group of international friends when she heard the waves coming upon her......she said that the waves sounded terrible.....like it was HELL.........but luckily....she found one STABLE pole and grabbed on to it.....but then there was one furniture that came and knocked on her head and she was then unconscious......but the will to live on was there as when she regained conscious.....she found herself still grabbing hold onto the pole....wow.....but having found her friends being swept away by the waves felt terrible for her....who wouldn't feel that way....and she lost 3 friends along the way.....but thank God for her that she is ok.....just getting away with some scrapes and bruises.....but my teacher heard that they are saying that God is punishing them......why do i say that????well.......there are groups of people rioting on that very day as they wanted an independant state........actually.....in this type of occasion.....it brings out the best and the worse in human beings......why????the best thing is that many people are more than willing to help out with the tsunami victims....donating whatever they can to help out........the worst????looters are found all around the islands that have been hit with the tsunami....mrs pandian found looters all around....and she lost alot of american dollars and gold.....but there is another friend of hers who lost 25 thousand.....american dollars le.....wow....can buy dunno how many things ah.....some people took advantage of the children whom have lost their parents by forcing them into prostitution....selling them as slaves.......they are really very innocent.....haix....
Life is really fragile.....precious........one moment....u Might be ok.....the next....you couldn't be ablr to predict anything....thats for God to decide....so whenever i think about the people around me.......wherever i go....shopping centres....libraries....etc.....especially the ones that are in MY house.......i would want to cry.....i dun wan them to die in a fire....i dun wan to see them suffering....and not knowing that there is somemore that can cure....help.....be a friend....anything....whenever we asked for it....someone is always there.....when u call Him....he is there.....when u call for friends....they need time to get to u....but God....He's there in a flick of a second.....thats how fast he can make it...wow...tts amazing isn't it.....?????
You Are My God
