The creepy Cromwell earthquake

In Wanaka,  Queenstown and Cromwell there was a 6.1 magnitude earthquake. The ground shook heaps and it sounded like there was a bulldozer outside. We hid under the tables and stayed silent. I think I was red in the face. Once the ground wasn't shaking as bad we lined up and walked to the field. Mrs Lees called out the roll to make sure everyone was with us. Heaps of kids were crying. Room 4 and 7 had some damage done to their classrooms. Mrs Lees was scared because she had been in the big Christchurch earthquake. This was my second earthquake because I was in an after shock in Christchurch. There were a few after shocks. My brother was too scared to do swimming lessons.

I WAS SO CREEPED OUT!
