First the tornado hit our coast, labelling it as a disaster zone. It was raining cats & dogs for 3 days nonstop and although it finally stopped yesterday, our river is flooded and heaps of people are either trapped or have evacuated. I know a few people that are okay but the other I'm unsure about. The bridge is flooded, and that's the way I go to school. But our Premier just said that schools will be open and I have to check a certain website just in case but a helicopter just flew by and I couldn't hear the television. Heaps of helicopters today have been helping the trapped people! I saw a white one, a white an red one, a blue one and an army one! I really want to go to school tomorrow, not just because if I miss school stuff usually gets crammed into our hits (I mean catch-up work) but it's because TOMORROW WILL BE MY FIRST EVER DAY OF ME BEING A SENIOR STUDENT. Year 11. *sheds a tear*

Yeah, we start the new school year at the start, not in the middle like overseas. :| My Mum washed my scool uniform just in case anyway. I've even been decorating my school books with pictures from SGC2C, Ed Edd n Eddy, Spongebob and Invader Zim. But I only got 4 books done and they're mostly Invader Zim. I'm so glad I found my calculator yesterday! XD

Oh, the river is at the north section of the town and the houses there are flooded. My grandparents live there so we picked them up before the water rose and they are staying here for now. Not only my town in trouble, but also other parts of Queensland and New South Wales! :|

Now, for the big answer to the question you all haven't been wanting to ask.....(Wow, I'm very negative and positive!)

AM I TRAPPED FROM THE FLOODS?:|

:|:|:|:|

:|

Nope. :P

The river is about 6 minutes away by car but the ground is higher up here. Only my backyard is flooded, but it's getting smaller. :| It rained 5 minutes ago. :| It's getting really hot here. :| If my house was flooded, then the whole town would be flooded considering how higher our land is.

If there is anyone else in a situation like this, stay safe. :D

Bye!!
