大地震给人们带来的
�
�� �����小时候我经历过地震, 唐山大地震时我还是初中生, 大冬天在露天跟家人在地震棚里住过一个月. 那时候我不知道害怕, 父亲工作的空军医院里住了很多唐山运来的伤员, 我们小孩还跑去慰问伤员和帮忙打扫病房的卫生.
�� 几天后, 一位来自唐山的梳长辫子的女生转到我们班, 她给我讲了她被埋在地下72小时的恶梦, 当时她的脸鼻口眼都被泥土封住了, 没吃没喝身子也不能动, 脑子里只有一个想法: ‘我完了’. 当解放军叔叔把她从泥瓦片中挖出来时, 她觉得阳光很刺眼也很亲切. 地震已经过去相当一段时间了, 她说话声依然很轻, 目光始终带着惶恐, 走路也怯生生的. 我当时自然不懂 ‘灾难后综合症’, 但我知道她比任何人都需要同学的爱护. 她成了我的朋友, 我和我的同学们都想帮她尽快走出那可怕的梦魇.
� 地震的经历让我知道生命无常, 瞬间天塌地裂, 房倒屋塌是小概率但可发生事件. 当大地摇晃时, 房屋在你眼前跳舞时, 无论地位的高低, 金钱的有无, 生命之帆在一呼一吸之间飘摇, 所有人的追求也在瞬间拉平在‘求生’的基本水平上. 这样毁灭性大地震不仅将城市瞬间夷为平地, 夺去无数生命还会给幸存者身体和心灵留下永久性的创伤.

Great News!!!!��Jane has a job.� May 27th will be my first day working at The Jeff Gordon School of Racing.� I will be with the team that travels to different race tracks through out the country doing the NASCAR race experience.� I will be working in the customer check in center.� Which basically is where all the guest go to check in,�I will be responsible for track scheduling,�sales, customer service, photographing the guests, providing them will all their final�timing information from their drive.� There is also lots of administrative paper work with processing�sales, having guests sign the proper paper work, yada yada yada.� I am very excited about the job.� It is by no means my dream job but it is a great place to start. �I am particularly excited about the experience I will gain just being around the race cars and the entire racing experience.� This is about as up close as I could hope to get at this point.� I can hardly wait to take my first trip in a car.� For some people this experience of riding in an actually NASCAR car is a once in a lifetime opportunity and I am going to get to do it as part of my job.� WOW, I have a lot to be grateful for.� I think the job by means is going to be easy, as it involves lots of travel and long work days but I think the experience will be invaluable and could afford me lots of opportunity to expand my network.� The job is only part time, meaning I will be working full time + hours for June, July and into August and then the work schedule will slow down.� At that time I may have to continue looking for work... but should be in a much better position.� I’m hoping to be on the inside looking out and not like I am now, on the outside looking in.
I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest,
with visions to be realized,
than lord among those without dreams and desires.
It's incredible how you can never be you.� Well in my case, I feel like I can't.� I guess that is fear of losing her, but really should we be struggling this much.� This just crazy.�
6pm...so did you talk to him and find out if he poked a hole in the bag of fertilizer.� Yes I did! Let me guess, he said he didn't.� Yes that is what he said.� Yeah well, I don't believe him...you can't read him like I can and I know he is not telling the truth.�
So no matter what...there was no winning that conversation and what the hell amd I suppose to do?� I can't shake it out of him, he said he didn't and I talked to him over and over and he said he didn't do it.�
My head continues to spin of course after the conversation ends with her.� Feeling like I am missing something and I should have done something else to him to get it out of him.�
All it took for her was one lie, now everything he says is a lie.� OMG she is so negative towards him.� Well, he will learn and judge her for himself.� I am tired, my feelings are starting to be questionable, and I never thought I would ever say, I think I rather be alone, than deal with this anymore.
I'm done venting...any advice?� Till then...I have a productive day at work...and I need to get started.
Not very bad...
I did my best in year testing of chemistry. I shoked. 55. The best in my class.
Some weeks and we can be free. And then...Last summer of childchood.Strange feelings...
