The last entry on a blog called TGP1963 was posted at 7:49am on May 12. According to Hecaitou the blogger is a science teacher at Beichuan Middle School called Tang Guoping. On May 11, teachers and final year students held a sports fun event. Here are some of the pictures taken that afternoon.
The next day, 80% of the buildings in Beichuan county were destroyed. A thousand children were buried in the middle school. Tang Guoping (the man in the first photograph) is said to have been among the survivors.
