January 12, 2010 . The earthquake hit over a month ago and aid was their immediatly. The whole world was there to help until Febuary 12 when the Olympics began. The Olympics are great, dancing, and sporting event at the top level. This is the only thing seen on the News now a days and the world is beginning to forget the disaster that has happened in Haiti. So it's time to put things back in perspective and remember what is really happening out there.
Right now in Haiti over 200 000 people are dead, and over one million people are homeless. It is beleived that it will take over three years to clear away all of the loose rubble from this broken city. I feel the olympics should and will get attention, but they need to keep updating so people will not devote all of there time to the olympics when help is still needed. %%%%%
So, this blog may just have reminded you of whats really going on in the world, but tell your friends so you know that the people won't be forgotten. For me, I even wrote this and it makes me sad to think even when there are such great things happening and then you remember the terrible ones. Therefore, when your watching the olympics and hoping for Canada, give some of that hope for the people in Haiti.
