Wow! It's been a while since I last posted!!

Obviously, I know that nobody would be reading this yet but still, it's been nearly a month since my last post!!

There's been a lot going on in Japan.  Recenlty, on the 11th of March, Eastern Japan experienced a 9.0 magnitude earthquake.  Also adding to the devestation, a horrific tsunami occurred after the earthquake.  As a result, the nuclear powerplants in Fukushima had exploded, causing radiation levels to rise to dangerous levels. 
So many peoples lives have been taken as a result.  Some still missing, some still alive but left with nothing other than themselves.  As an aftermath, those who have survived this devastation are facing the crisis of shortage of food, water, shelter and medicine. 
After just over 3 weeks since the devestating earthquake, it is still extremely big news here in Japan. 

 I know that, in order to recover these areas, it will take many days, months and years, however; I truly hope that this will be all over soon and that those affected will be able to rebuild their lives and that something will bring them happiness.

My thoughts and condolences go out to those in need in areas of Fukushima, Miyagi and Iwate prefectures.
