A massive 7.4 magnitude earthquake has woken Chch up around 4:30am today... I got a shocking call from my brother... there were loud sirens and people yelling. Since then I haven't had a good sleep. So far with the help from texts and facebook, I know everyone I know is ok..... but still. The city is not. Quite a bit of destruction I bet.
Not sure if I should really feel lucky that I'm not there. At the moment I actually wish I was there too. At least then we can all worry and bond together. Not like being so far away from home. I'm working but my brain and mind are not here with me.
On the other hand.. I really regret not being there... If I were there I would've been able to capture once-in-a-life disaster...! I feel horrible even thinking about it but can't help wishing I was there to take pictures... What a weirdo.
A damaged church in Chch - Looks very familiar
The clock in central Chch stopped at the time of the quake
