  my heart goes out to all the people in si chuan, china who was affected by the major earthquake. it's really very saddening to see so many people homeless, desperate and stripped of any hope. they don't have enough food, enough medication or any other form of amenities at all. not to mention, can you imagine the kind of pain they have to go through, losing their love ones? can you imagine losing your love one in the earthquake?
  
  i remember experiencing my first earthquake in taiwan and i stupidly thought that my room was haunted and that's why my bed was shaking! but luckily it was a very, very minor earthquake. can you imagine if it was something as big as the one in si chuan? i might not even be here typing today.
  
  we got to really count our blessings and think of the bigger picture, instead of always focusing on our own problems. we are not smarter or better than the people in si chuan who are affected extensively by the earthquake. we are just luckier that we are in singapore, a country without any natural disasters. that said, being in a luckier and better position, we should really try to help people who are in need whenever we could.
  
  if you want to donate money to help the people in si chuan who are affected by the earthquake, you can send your money according to the details below.
