the weather has been exceptionally warm for the past one week
is this a sign before the end of the world?
or it's just a warning to us before we screw mother nature up?

we were "greeted" into the new year of 2010 with the catastrophic 7M earthquake in Port Au-Prince, the capital of Haiti on the 12th of January
followed by numerous earthquakes, tsunami warnings, draught in several places in china, ice storms etc etc etc...
i am just one of the very lucky person to be staying in an area without much threat of natural disaster
the only thing i would complain about is the stupid traffic condition and humid weather that would make me sweat all the time
just read the news about an earthquake that has killed hundreds in Kyegundo, eastern Tibet
i can't help but wonder, what if another earthquake strikes when i am sitting happily in the QingHai-Tibet train and the entire railroad just collapse?
well...it is not that i am afraid to die
it's just that if i really had to die
i would want to make sure that i tell my family & friends what they might need to do after i am gone
hmmm..checked and told

and now i am starting to think of what to leave in this tiny cyber space of mine
in case i really didnt make it
hmmm...ok...i think the humid & warm weather has really gotten into my head
hope that the strong Tibet earthquake victims will pull it through this
they've survived so many years of political disasters, i hope they can make it through this

on a lighter note
i cant describe how excited i am
to be able to conquer mt kk next week
and then off to take the highest railroad in the world next month
it feels like i am finally able to see the world
a different world
and i wish that the pictures that i will be taking
can help to make up for my lack of vocabulary

ok
need to go to sleep
before my adrenaline keep rushing
and i will end up awake the entire night
