3.11 Earthquake

When 3.11 earthquake occured, I was making curry and rice. And, my new refrigerator was just humped to my room. No sooner the earthquake broke out, than I tried to get on mobile to my family and friends, but I couldn't get them on their cell phone.
The whole Tohoku became blacked out immediately, so we were unable to use electricity and fire. And, we went shopping, but each store was thinly distribute.
Next day, we recovered from blackout, so I entered into making a partly-assemble curry and rice and ate them.
3.11 was very abject day and I hope that Tohoku area will get hot.
Thank you!

about the earthquake

When the first big earthquake occured on March 11, I was in my hometown Sapporo. I felt a tremor but it was not so intense, so I thought it was ordinary earthquake and not so big at first. But I was surprised when I watched images of the earthquake and tsunami on TV news. I can’t believe that these terrible disasters happened in actuality. After a few days, I read an article of a local newspaper, which reported high school students who started a fund-raising campaign on the streets. I was deeply impressed by that article and went to place where they were the next day. I told them that I wanted to join their activity and took part in the fund-raising campaign. I really felt to do whatever I could. All money which they collected were donated to the Japanese Red Cross Society.

March 11th earthquake

April 19th, I went to Kesennuma to help to distribute rice.
I am attached to Kesennuma becouse I often went to sea when I was child. So, I was shocked when I saw the sea that was a heap of rubble. But children who lived at an evacuation were very vigorous. I got power from them. I thought that I want to help them as mach as I can.
