by charlene on Nov.22, 2009, under
It was a nightmare in Mt. Tambora, Indonesia, destruction, hurt, crying, and sadness. my name is Anna and I'm 35 years old and the date is April 16, 1816. I served the volcano in Mt. Tambora, Indonesia which was in April 15, 1816 . I live just about 100 blocks away from where it happened but it felt so real and it felt as if it was just around the corner of it but wasn't. I woke up in a great mode, had a good dream, and though my whole day will be the same. I also have two kids name Jerry and Charlene, they were twins that was five years old. and here is my story. the first thing that I heard was a rumbling sound like, at first I didn't know what it was so I continued with my cleaning as always. then when I came outside I seen piece of gravel like rock exploding from the sky. one actually almost hit me, it would of hurt of it did. but then I ran to my kids because I heard a big rock crashing though the ceiling. one of them got hit, I just started crying because I knew what was going to happen next there was also smoke coming in though the windows and anywhere with cracks, but I put her on my arm and right then her eyes closed up, Charlene past away. I heard lots and lots of people screaming, I was really scared. but I held on to my other child Jerry. I even heard people knocking on the door as if someone was chasing them. I didn't dare open it. after hours and hours of hearing the tarting of my people I fell asleep. I wake up with a bum in my room and with the TV on and also Jerry still in my arms. the news came on (yesterday had the worst volcano eruption that killed 92,000 people and 10,000 was just from the explosion of it. a memorial will be present) I cried.
