That is very moving experience. When I lowered my head with all my team members in the lobby of the 18th floor of my office building, and standing under the sunshine, which pulled in from the glass roof 20 meters above my head, I saw the structure of the roof from the reflection of the tiled floor. I don't really remember what I thought, but I know the picture...http://home.wangjianshuo.com/archives/20080520_thoughts_after_one_week_of_earthquake.htm Mourning for Victims in Sichuan- May 19, 2008 I have changed the color of my blog to black and white, and will keep it in the next 3 days.http://home.wangjianshuo.com/archives/20080519_mourning_for_victims_in_sichuan.htm Still Watching TV about Earthquake- May 17, 2008 I am still watching TV about the earthquake, to get more information about the recent progress.

I didn't write, not because I am not concerned. To be honest, there are many reasons. 1. TV has been out of my life for a long time. But recently, TV is the center of Wendy and my time at night. We surround the TV set, and watch the latest news from TV all the time - switching between CCTV-1 and Oriental TV, to get the latest reports. At night, we watch TV till very late, which basically occupied my time.

At that time, there is completely no detailed news about how bad the earthquake in Sichuan was. (I still remembered that when we flee out of the building, I thought the earthquake was happening some where in the Pacific). Even when I know it was in the mountain area in Sichuan, I said: "It is lucky that it is in very rural area, and not many people are living there". I was wrong, deadly wrong. Last night, Wendy and I...http://home.wangjianshuo.com/archives/20080514_earthquake_is_much_more_terrible_than_i_tho...
