Mighty Earthquake


I had just finished my lunch when the earthquake happened.
When I first felt the rumble I thought it was an aftershock then I realised it was an earthquake and I quickly dropped to the ground.
The earthquake managed to knock down the CTV and PGC buildings and the Grand Chancellor Hotel is leaning side to side.
Prebbleton is ok because we’re built on clay. 
We have no problems with our water, electricity and sewage.
Selwyn is quite safe at the moment, in the last quake Darfield is only 30 minutes away from Prebbleton.
And there was an earthquake in Wellington
so the people who moved into Wellington  well they have bad luck.
I was not scared in the earth quake.
