Post Hurricane Blog

 The Hurricane was not very eventful for me.  I remember going to bed thursday night assuming we would have an underwhelming amount of rain, however, the next day I looked out my window and there was a river going down the street below me. We lost power, water and cell service for the next couple days so I left the country and went home to England. 

Technology affected me during all of this as I realised how dependent I am on my wifi and how many things that I used require it. Also it was hard to let my family know I was alright after the storm as I could barely contact them. 

It was interesting when I was in England to hear how the storm was being presented over there and what things the news focused on.

I hope this is because we are all good people with strong ethical codes and not because someone was too scared to speak the truth about the way they feel.
