Tsunami

20110311. Never thought it would really be here again :(
I browsed through some videos by CNN and some news channel. It was shocking, and devastating.
To a certain extent, I couldn't believe what has happened. Even houses were swiped away...

On Facebook, Michito was just saying that he's on his way to uni this morning and is looking forward towards the start of uni, and who would expect that in the afternoon, the 8.9 earthquake happened followed by more than 50 subsequent earthquakes.

At 0205 hours (GMT+0800),
• 8.9 magnitude earthquake and aftershocks hit Japan
• Tsunami engulfs northern port of Sendai and islands
• Emergency at nuclear plant, fears of radiation leak
• Tsunami warnings for many other countries
• Death toll said to be more than 1,000 so far
and more to be discovered and reported. "Currently 2am, power still out, cold. Keeping positive, but so many people have been injured, or killed." --from The Guardian

I just hoped that more people would be safe, and everything would recover as much as possible soon.
Take care日本....
