earthquake

When I was doing some housework, I felt dizzy and sat down. Looking out of the window, I saw electric wires were swaying from side to side. I knew there was a big earthquake somewhere.

It was a 7.2 magnitude earthquake, which hit the Tohoku area, the northeastern region of Honshu. The news surprised me that the ceiling of a newly built indoor swimming pool collapsed. Why?

I pray all the injured in the earthquake will be all right.

On August 6, after I wrote here about the sunflowers, my computer suddenly broke down. I bought it two years ago. I asked NEC to repair it.

They found out that something was wrong with its mother board. They said they would exchange it for a new one.

Nine days have passed but my computer has not returned to me yet.

My daughter brought an old computer for me and linked it with a network. Thing will work out. Thank you, Daughter!

I'm looking forward to my computer coming back to me as soon as possible.
