the reverse of today's date will be my birthday. HAH.
anyway, suddenly feeling emo again. had a chat with a colleague today and she's from myanmar. just so happen the recent mishap happened in her hometown. and she told me, she tried contacting everyone; her father, mother, siblings, aunt, and even friends. and none of them could be contacted. her eyes seemed so sad while she spoke, and the most triggering line from her was "I just hope to hear just one of their voices. With that I will feel at least some assurance. Now I don't even know what really has happened."
i nearly cried with that.
imagine losing ALL your loved ones overnight. your own family and closest friends. while you are all alone in a foreign land. and you can't travel back yet. omt. and she's really a very nice lady. someone who has helped me throughout since the first day i stepped into st luke's as a TA.
i really pray hard for her. and all her fellow countrymen. haiz. i wish i can do something to help.
