Ops! Earthquake


Road collapse by Earthquake


On 18th september 2011 approximately at 15:40 i was at my work as usual. I was listening internet online radio and chating as well, suddenly my friend stopped to reply. I waited for about three minute then breaking my patience i wrote '' hey where are you missing?'' then i got reply. ''Oh my god here is a very big earthquake luckily i'm safe thanks god.'' My friend wrote me with full of fear her heart beating wasn't coming to the normal yet. Then kalika fm from chitwan start to announce that there was earthquake they felt very big quake. so kalika fm was announcing to make people aware and informing peoples to stay safe. Immediately i called to my house it ranged but suddenly the line was cut. I kept on trying trying trying then i was able to talk with my family member, they were fine. Then i tried to contact my friends but i wasn't able to make calls because the telephone route was too much busy it was because a lots of people started to contact eachother and getting information of their friends and family wheather they were safe or not. I couldn't make any call to nepal so i just sent some sms to my friends. Kalika fm started to give detail information about the earthquake it was 6.8 magnitude quake and epicenter was between India's Sikkim and Nepal's taplejung. The quake killed 3 in kathmandu, 2 in Dharan. In kathmandu the british embassy's wall had been collapshed and 3 people were trapped on it, in Dharan a house was collapshed killed 2. In this way very soon we (people staying out of country) came to know the quake through online internet radio, facebook, twitter, yahoo, Msn etc. From Australia my friend Ram Tamang, from UAE brother Chandra and from USA Mr Thapa also were telling me about the same quake. I also informed to my friends who were online but one of my friend Mr Mahendra from my own village thought that as if i was kidding him. He said ''hya samdi pani kasto joke garya hou''. He satrted to think if it was April 1, let alone to get information from home. It was being so difficult for me to persuade him that the quake was true because on April 1 also i lied him telling '' there is very big earthquake in Nepal.'' that time he immediately contact to his home and became FOOL. Of course it was 1st but not of April was of Aswin hehehe.

He didn't trust me so i had to make a call to him then he trusted and called it was not fake, was true.
We listen and read the news updates untill late night. The next day i called my papa again and he said there are some cracks on the walls of our house. Hope everything will be ok
