What is your 12 Janvier Story?

January 12... HMMM... WOW...

How Is Your 12 Janvier Going So Far?

Mine Is Really Quiet...

Today, 12 Janvier 2011, marks one year to the day that the earthquake happened in Haiti. Ever since last night, it feels almost like my mind went in to a QUIET and SUSPENDED mode... I am not fully awake but... I can't sleep neither....

I can't really understand how I feel except the fact that I felt that same way before... for days... even weeks... after the January 12 earthquake hit Haiti last year, January 12, 2010.

But the way it happened to me felt like a dream that I never walked out of...

Here's my 12 Janvier 2010 Story...

I work at home so usually around 4:00 PM I stop working and grab a bite to eat. Then I usually put my phone on silent mode, Set my television to CNN, and take my long afternoon nap.

Ever since Obama ran for president, Anderson Cooper, Wolf Blitzer, and Larry King have become favorites of mine.

I love to wake up in the middle of "The situation room!"

On January 12, 2010, I woke up in the middle of my nap, around 6:30PM, to go to the bathroom...

And I vaguely heard on CNN that there was an earthquake in Haiti and possibly 300,000 people are dead...

I was clearly dreaming... I mean... FLOOD and Haiti have been used in the same sentence before but... HAITI and EARTHQUAKE and 300 THOUSAND people dead???

NAHHHH....

Maybe Stephen Spieldbert is talking about his new movie, ou bien se FAL mwen ki two plen....

So I took a leak in the white bowl, flushed it, and went back to bed...

While I had my eyes closed and trying to go back to bed, I kept on hearing the same thing... HAITI... EARTHQUAKE... 300 THOUSAND DEAD...

So I woke up... I thought I did... and I started broadcasting this... NEWS... to my friends on the internet...

And I couldn't turn the TV off... And I couldn't to back to sleep... And I couldn't cry... And I couldn't NOT cry...

I was in disbelief... I was dreaming... That's it... and I wanted to wake up... and I couldn't wake up...

Two days later, 36 hours later, I really wanted to close my eyes, and I did, but it's my mind... I couldn't shut it down...

My mind was frozen on a reality that was just too much for me to accept...

I still cannot accept it... I have not been to Haiti since!

That's my 12 Janvier story, the whole truth so help me God!
