If you were me, taking a month's leave at home revising "hard" for exams. And the only source of entertainment is SCV( channel 49 for taiwan news on recent China's worst hit earthquake). Couldn't help thinking and bothered by those suffering there in pain and loss of loved ones.
Like what my mum said, trapped deep beneath piles of heavy bricks is a torture. I think is even worse than drowning, as you are still able to struggle to live/swim even with a a piece straw. What about those trapped underneath? Only lying there in pain, waiting for help! No way they can move especially with a huge piles of rubbles sitting on top of them.
I feel relived especially when some did managed to survive out of this ordeal after the "golden" 72 hours.
Unforunately for some others in order to get out; had to resort to amputate their own limbs BY THEMSELVES after being crushed by the falling blocks
I feel sorry for those parents who have lost their only child in this disastarous earthquake. (see how important a child is to a parent due to the "one-child policy in China)
We should however cherish our lives as Singapore is in a free from the earthquake zone. Though ,e do encounter slight tremours if there is any major earthquake from Neighbouring country, Indonesia.
Nothing should be taken as granted.
