A SURVIVOR'S STORY

On 8^th March, in 2010 I was studying in Castelló d’Empúries I was in 1^st ESO. It was at 9:00am and I was having maths with my class and suddenly it started to snow a lot. The next moment people were in the school yard. All the school was playing with snow, running, taking photos… At 10:00a.m. all the people of l’Armentera and I were in the bus. When we went to l’Armentera the bus passed to a small street, with the ice, the bus slipped and crashed with a wall. But we didn’t hurt with the accident. When we arrived to the village everything was white, a perfect white. The scene was beautiful, the snow were shining… Everything was new for me.  When I arrived home my family was there. But not everything was perfect. All the village didn’t have any light, any water… we didn’t have any electricity. We didn’t have school for three days. The first day didn’t stop to snow and when it was dark the scene was afraid. For people like me, life without electricity was very difficult, we need TV, have a shower, talk with Facebook… Another problem was the fields, with the snow all the harvest was zero. There was a negative year for the farmers and my grandfather was very angry with the snow.
