FEAR
"...I put it aside so I won't freak out.."
"My experience to this [incident] is unthinkable. It was the most [scariest] thing I’ve seen in my life living in Springfield. But the most thing tht scard me is all my friends who was a victim of the tornado. I kept getting phone calls but the service was just coming and going. I watched the news every five minutes for another tornado watch. I ran into my girlfriend’s house to see if she was OK because it was getting close. I couldn’t get any [transportation] because of all the damage that was held in Springfield. I was hoping that I wasn’t going to get another phone call from a friend who got hit and lost everything because it will be to hard to deal with. But after all that I put as much support to help the ones who are in need."
"On Wednesday, June 2, 2011 I was at the bus terminal heading home on the bus until I heard that all the buses running to Forest Park were no longer running due to the tornado. I was pretty shocked when they told this to everyone and me. I put it aside so I won’t freak out while walking to my uncle’s apartment in the nursery projects by Mercy Hospital. When I got there I seen that it was a tragic moment because of the tornado. Around eight o’clock in the afternoon, after the tornado stopped, my uncle brought me home, which took about an hour because of the traffic. While we were in traffic I seen trees in the middle of the streets and on top of houses, the siding and roofs of some houses were gone into other people’s yards."
