Don't lock the phone

    I acknowledge that I focused on my phone all the time during the lock down.When the announcement said that this was a red code lock down and it was not a drill, I did not feel afraid (I don’t know why because usually I am really timid).And I remembered that the last thing I did before I hid under the table was grabbing my phone which was on the table.In the beginning, I dared not looked at my phone because I was afraid if somebody looked from the window, the phone would give out light.And then, I found many people were chatting on the Messenger already.So, I text my mom, but at that time China was in the wee hours, and she did not wake up....I text my friend in Burnaby, she was doing her test...I text around seven people in China, but only one replied me because she stayed up watching a movie.At that time, people in the IB GIRLS’ group on Messenger was chatting so hot that there were three or four messages per second.The people who were near the accident directly broadcast the last situation.

    The second time lock down made me feel afraid.The phone was the only tool that we can connect with outsides.So I think, we need to grab our phones with us, this is the first step.And then the second step turn the light down and turn the sound off.The third step, hide the light of the phone to the greatest extent by using clothes wrap the phone.And then text our parents, told them what happened, and the most important thing is telling them do not spread this message (tell them calm down is almost impossible...but I think telling them is necessary).

    That is what I think: we can use our phone during the lock down, but we need to use it appropriate.However, listen to teachers' command.If they don't want us to use our phones, just put them away.

    Anyway, I hope this was the last time.I fear after the event now.
