2011 Japan Earthquake

On March 11, 2011, Japan experienced massive earthquake and tsunami. The 9.0 magnitude earthquake killed thousands of people. The death toll is still growing everyday and currently it reached 2,414. Nonetheless, on March 12, the nuclear plant in Fukushima exploded and injured 15 workers. Moreover, on March 13, there was a volcanic eruption in Kyushu island.

When I heard about Japan's earthquake, I was on my way to school. I cannot explain how shocked I was. The first person I thought was my Japanese friend, Kazumi. Kazumi and I used to be best friends since 3rd grade but she moved back to Japan in 7th grade. Therefore, she's my biggest worry right now and there's no way to contact her. I wish I can call her, but since, nowadays, teenagers have Facebook, Kazumi and I forgot exchange our phone numbers. I believe that many people have their loved ones live in Japan and are waiting for their call. The only prayer I have is that those loved ones are safe.
