today...

today.... at least there are two different things happened unusually for me. Doing physics homework very early in the morning [and what a relieve that finally it's done!], so the time for rest was quite limited. Yet, I still must attend 4 classes for the whole day. That's good news :p, at least because by that there will be plenty of time for me to study together with my friends and lecturers. My Pedagogy class has been so great: watched Harry Wong's video about the choice to do in the first day of school. I really enjoyed it and got a good inspirations from his very good ideas of teaching.

Until we got to the class of "Proper Theology", Doctrine of God (By the way, I am not a seminarian, but my scholarship program provides me with those courses during my study, while I am in Teachers College right now -red) where we were shocked by.... earthquake... literally earthquake! Its magnitude, according to later TV news was 7.3 SR [according Wikipedia 7.00 SR] (Ritcher). Our building was shaken but praise the Lord, there is not any serious damage. The epicentrum (i.e. center of the earthquake) was 142 km from Tasikmalaya City, West Java [Jawa Barat]. As soon as possible, we were evacuated from the building and there were lots of panic in our campus.


And I am reminded immediately by that, how near is the end of mankind's life here on earth, either through natural disasters, persecutions, sickness and many things else. Remembering that this life of ours as the preparation for eternity, I bow down before the Lord: Lord, have mercy on me a sinner!
