black out

Last Thursday night San Diego experienced a long black out of ethic proportions. Which led to many schools being cancelled on Friday. With everyone's practices being cancelled since my brothers and I are in many sports this gave us the chance to work as a team and care for my worried little sister. Although we ate in the dark and had to share flashlights it made me realize how much the U.S relies on electricity, without the fridge being able to work most of our food had gone to rot and without the oven or microwave working it was difficult too cook.Yet at the end of the day my family made it a positive experience with gathering the neighbors next to the fire pit and catching up with each other.
