Nature's Wrath

Here comes the rain again. There was a blackout in our area last Friday I had no choice but to do my makeup by the candlelight, it was rather difficult. The power came back just before I left for work (oh great) at least I was able to check if my face look okay. 

I hate it when the weather is being like this, it gets too hot and when it rains, it rains a lot. This whole climate change is getting worst. Poor mother earth, she's been abused too much already I hope it's never too late to save her. 

Few days ago, a cyclone hit Myanmar. I learned about it from a friend when she sent me pictures of the said tragedy via email. It was devastating to see corpses everywhere I can't get it out of my head. Many of the victims are children. According to the news, roughly 133,000 people has been reported dead or missing. 

On Monday the 12th, a huge earthquake with an estimated magnitude of 7.8 hit Wenchuan, China. Officials estimated death toll went up to over 50,0000. More than 80% of the structures near the quake's epicenter collapsed that trapped a lot including possible survivors. It's scary to think that we can't do anything with nature's wrath but we can help in our little way by giving donations and praying for them.
