I heard from my mum yesterday that there was an earthquake in Haiti, and 16 buildings (or maybe more) collapsed. I was sad because from 2009 to now, many earthquakes occured like the time there was an earthquake here in Jakarta, or maybe the one in Japan, but there were more I slightly forgotten. Anyways, this earthquake was really bad because more than 100,000 people in Haiti died from falling buildings and others. But some survived and an Argentine hospital still standed (a whole crowd would obviously be there!). But also, the president's palace got broken too! Still, I was really sad about the disaster. In class, I watched a video in CNN.com about this reporter talking to the survivors. It was really miserable, and I felt pitiful (hand shaking).

Pitiful is the right word all right, Rgee. I think it is more than 16 buildings for sure, but I'm not certain the death toll has reached the 100,000 mark yet. I hope not anyway.
It has been almost a week, so it's time for us to check in and see what kind of progress is being made.
