passing through town after town, you see mostly the same thing, which is total devastation. passing through this one was different. along with the devastation, somebody wrote a message with big lettering saying “GIVE US FOODS!” i know for a fact that this city was trapped in because the roads in and out were not accessible for weeks after the tsunami. the thing i’m concerned about is how long did it take for food to get in? we met an elder lady that survived next door. the tsunami wiped out the whole city but somehow, her house was standing strong. she appreciated very much the supplies we brought. she also told us that her 32 year old son died at work in the post office when the tsumami hit. she looked sad as she told us that his funeral is the following day. what do you say? how do you act? i just stood there and held it in. as she walked away, she kept on bowing and saying “arigato, arigato, arigato” until we drove away. it’s unbelievable how strong, and at the same time, how thankful she was.
a lot of people’s been concerned and asking how i’m doing. i’m doing ok. i don’t feel the greatest, but i feel like i’m where i’m supposed to be. that’s all that matters to me now. i know that hawaii will always be there for me and when i need to go back to reset, i will. the nuclear plant is at level 7, meaning it can put the whole world at danger. if i had another choice at an occupation, i would be a scientist. why? because i always think of the worst case scenario before i do anything. so for me, i wouldn’t have let something so uncontrollable like this ever happen. not me. and if you are a scientist in this world that has an answer to fixing this problem, please come forward and save our world. we need you!
i think i’m getting delirious. sorry, better go before i say something i might want to take back. peace on earth!
