Q. Do you believe in the earthquake could destory your house any minute?

No, I don't think so. My place is a high-rise apartment. I live on the 25th floor in a 30-story building.

As far as I'm concerned, this building has earthquake proof structure. It is shaking technique against earthquake. No wonder, sometimes, at the day it is very windy, I feel the building shake a little. I heard shaking is good for safe.

Q. How many hours did you labor when you gave birth to your baby?

It took me about 10 hours to give birth to my baby. Even though many years have passed, I still remeber that day I suffered a lot. It was a natural childbirth. During giving birth, I had a hard time but, after having a baby, I turned to be normal as if nothing had happened. The human body is very mysterious. Anyway, one experience of having a baby is enough. I don't want to get through this again.
