Me and the rest of my of my class is sitting in room five,
filling up purchase orders, invoices, credit notes, and receipts
when suddenly, my classmate Dean said "Is it just me? or we are having an earthquake"
that was then I felt it, the entire town shook for just about 30 seconds.
It was weak and I didn't think much of it.
i continued my work and soon forget about what just happened.
about 20 minutes later, a school mate pop his head in our room and informed us
that the earthquake we just felt was on the news.
i ignored his news and kept doing my work but Dean and his girlfriend (who is also in our class) went to watch the news in the other room,
they came back with a dreadful news.
Christchurch, 5 hours drive from here in Westport, was massively hit.
the EQ is weak compared to the 7.5 last September but it is shallower and closer to Christchurch.
the previously weakened buildings collapse bringing along a few hundred people.
houses uninhabitable, road cracks, millions of dollars damage
but that was the least of the peoples concerns
what they are worried now is the number of people still tap in the rubble's of the fallen buildings,
the number of people still missing (which is now reaching 300)
and the number of people with injuries whom they cant treat but don't have enough personnel's and medicine to treat it with.
lots of different countries give their aid and are still on their way
and we are grateful for that .
I may not believe in god but I encourage you and my self to pray for those people who needed it.
pray for the rescuers, the volunteers, and the homeless.
pray for the people who are still stock in the rubble's
and pray for the souls of those people who passed away.
pray for the victims pray for us all.
