knocked off from work this morning,
our last minute planned Long Jie trip was then held back, in the very last minute.
we all headed home, bathed, grabbed our passport, and were rushing out of the house, when i tried calling the ticketing counter and realised that there will be no service as the cruise is dry docking. =_="
jiawei & alvin were so sian diaoz. loL~
i was all well prepared tho. so larry & i headed out for lunch & movie.
finally tried the promo lunch set at Pasta de Waraku.
AFTERSHOCK @ 1.15pm
Tangshan Earthquake, 28 July 1976.
When a mother is informed by the rescue team that, as her 7-year old twins are buried under the debris close to each other, digging one out would result in further collapse of the wreckage on the other, she is forced to make the most difficult decision of her life. As the clock ticked away, she finally ended her struggle and chose to save the boy, and though heartbroken, she had no idea her decision was overheard by the daughter. Deemed as a dead person, the little girl miraculously survived and was rescued after being buried for days. Suffering from the emotional shock of the disaster and the painful memory of her mother's choice, she refused to reveal who she was. She was adopted by a young couple and later moved to the US, but shadowed by the traumatic experience from her childhood; she forever remained emotionally closed up.
When the Sichuan earthquake takes over 80,000 lives in 2008, she volunteers to join the rescue team and returns to her homeland, China. As she witnesses the tribulations people go through when a natural disaster takes place, she finally unlocks the pain she had felt all these years and finds forgiveness. She finally reunites with the mother and twin brother she had parted from after 32 years. A human drama about finding forgiveness, 'Aftershock' depicts not only the fatal tragedy that is brought on by natural disaster of great levels but also the strength and courage that is demonstrated when we are in face of extreme and devastating situations.
dramatic true stories of earthquakes in China.
