Feeling better...
Had been suffering from migraine since last Friday. It's the worst one I've ever experience in my whole life. It's a periodical numb coming from my left brain. I've been lying on my bed most of the time today. I dreamt about my aunt and stuff...felt as if I would jus leave anytime. Perhaps I'm just thinking too much but the pain was really unbearable..life is jus so fragile..I felt esp. so when I've since this shocking news a few days ago..
On the afternoon of May 12, 2008, an earthquake measuring 7.9 on the Richter scale hit Sichuan Province, a mountainous region in Western China. By the next day, the death toll stood at 12,000, with another 18,000 still missing. Over 15 million people live in the affected area, including almost 4 million in the city of Chengdu. Nearly 2,000 of the dead were students and teachers caught in schools that collapsed.
Since the Tangshan earthquake in 1976, which killed over 240,000 people, China has required that new structures withstand major quakes. But the collapse of schools, hospitals and factories in several different areas around Sichuan may raise questions about how rigorously such codes have been enforced during China’s recent, epic building boom.

好希望大家都能有无私的心博大的爱，更重要的做事要对的起自己的良心。这是做人最基本的价值观，更何况‘你’应该是大家学习的榜样。如果你连这点都做不到...我真的‘哑口无言’..只能大声地感慨..叹气..
