Today... I feared for my life.
(True True, NO lie)
You know how when like, you hear about something like the September eleven thing, or the Virginia Tech. massacre you think about what the people, that died were thinking on that day, even if its for ten seconds....
They probably just woke up thinking its just another normal day, seeing people and treating them with no extra special treatment, unaware of the fact its the last time they'll be able to, maybe even fight with family, friends.
Well today, I arrived at school... met my friends, was like oh Hi... yah wuts up.. oh cool ... then met my BF, talking about... you should know😛 met my bestie... started talking about tv shows and bitching about other people😳 and then I headed off to Student Services cause I had to do this thing...
When I got there, I opened the door and saw two helpers inside... Linda and our school psychologist, Shane. I wasnt even completely in, didnt even get a chance to close the door, that a blast was heard. It wasnt just one of those that u hear when a balloon suddenly bursts, it was way more heart vibrating than that. I immediately thought of it being a bomb blast, like an Alquaida type, too sterotypical, I know...😊 But you cant blame me...
I convinced myself, it was just someone fooling around, but then as soon as the sound of the blast started to die down, a guy started screaming... a real pain staking screaming... I immediately turned around and saw the people staring in shock and horror something to the left of them. I just couldnt bring myself to move... The door at the entrance, was kinda like a safety barrier between me and a dangerous world.
Shane was like Oh god... wut the?? And then linda ran out. I just started thinking of all my mates. Erika Carrie Sam Tegan Sasha May Rosie Kiki Jack Other Jack Dave Cammster Sai Sameul Varun
When linda went past me I came back into reality... no one else was screaming, or running around. And even the first screaming guy was quiet now... I turned around and was like, Shane... I dont think it was serious... and he was like, mmz I hope not Rida and then Linda came back and Shane was like, what was it? And linda said, ''I didnt see anyone, cause they ran off, but I can smell gun powder,''
I didnt get what she meant. Cause to me gun powder means, nuclear bombs, canons and big explosions... Thankfully she continued, ''So if you can tell someone, that some student has got firecrackers...''
I know I know... fire crackers, what the hell? Why did Rida make a whole topic on this.... but its not about that...
I love Shenton College, its the best hting thats ever happened to me. I feel totally at home there, but for the first time, I felt unsafe at my own school. And I've realised, theres no place safe enough in the world. Not even mosques and mandirs anymore😕. The whole day it kept going through my mind, a terrorist bomb happening at our school, cuz its got the most students in Perth, and it be on the news and all...
But what worried me the most, people thinking, Oh I bet there was a girl who probably just woke up thinking its just another normal day, seeing people and treating them with no extra special treatment, unaware of the fact its the last time she'll be able to, maybe even fight with family, friends...
-
What's one of the biggest international tragedies, have made you, personally, the most upset.
-
Haven't you ever thought of those people that pass away, in such a cruel manner.
-
Have you ever been scared in this manner, of where you assume lives are going to be lost... right around you.
-
Is this the reason, why our ancestors repeatedly said, ''Be nice to whoever you meet... and get along with everyone. Be kind, caring and loving. It'll give you peace at mind and you'll rest peacefully for ever.''
I know I'll never be able to look at other international tragedies, the same way ever again. 🤢
Love Me X
