The Tsunami
It was that time again our annual surfing trip to Devon. While my parents packed up the suitcases and loaded up the car for the long journey ahead, we chatted excitedly about what an incredible holiday this was going to be!
Not too long into the journey, the beautifully clear, blue sky became dark and ominous. All of a sudden, crashing towards the long line of traffic, was a colossal wave – not the kind you’d want to catch on a board either.
Desperately, people raced wildly out of their cars, running, screaming and panicking yet as I looked to my left, I saw a man, he looked like he had been studying tsunamis in geography. He was the first one to realise what had happened.
He saw the islands disappearing. We kept going for higher ground, up the steep hill into the jungle beyond it. We waited for two hours, knowing only a few people would have survived the huge waves.
Although the man had miraculously managed to prevent the death of many people but everyone was still extremely frightened! Even though we survived we felt guilt after seeing the devastation.We were lucky enough to leave, but many were left with nothing.The waves flattened walls, trees, and the buildings around us, before rising higher and higher.
One of the only positives to come out of it all was the humanity of it. It didn't matter about your nationality or religion. Everyone was checking on each other.

Lockdown Daily Routine
I will be telling you how lockdown affected my daily routine and habits.
Before lockdown I used to wake up much earlier so I can get ready for school.
Now I get a little bit more sleep in the morning. But staying home all day is not much fun as you keep on repeating everything you do day after day. I get up in the morning, have my hot chocolate and get ready for the first hangout meeting. After that I have a snake and do the first part of the assigned work like writ about a topic we discussed in the online meeting. That goes for the rest of the day hangout meetings. At the end of the day at around 3pm I take a break for like an hour then get back to finish the rest of the work like publishing a post on my school blog. Sometimes I get frustrated as I feel like a prisoner in my own home. Study, eat, sleep, REPEAT. On the weekend mum had a surprise for us, we made our favourite chocolate chip cookies. That was fun as I got to measure the ingredients and mix it together until a dough was formed. I asked mum If we can half the dough (part plain / part with chocolate chip). We halved the dough and I got to choose what shape cookie cutter and decorate my own cookies. I had a great time baking the cookies and it took a few minutes in the pre-heated oven to cook, it was super yummy.
