I'm looking forward to getting back into school. What happened recently in Alaska is there has been a lot of earthquakes school has been closed down because of the earthquakes that have been going on. So I've been working on a lot of my art projects at home.

They were quite big earthquakes. The first earthquake was about as 7.2 and then there were a few smaller earthquakes and then there was another big earthquake but I forget how big. It was enough to cause a lot of damage but thank goodness everyone is all right

@jonnyartist An earthquake with 7.2 magnitude in Richter can cause a lot of damage.

@marguicha yeah there's still a lot of reconstruction going on that I know of. I'm sure everything is going to get fixed soon enough.

It is awful that the school is closed though it is totally understandable. I am sorry that Alaska has experienced lots of earthquakes. Well done for working on your art projects. I experienced two earthquakes in my life and thankfully it was in Chile. My friend said we wouldn't be alive if we had been in Haiti for such earthquakes. They were 6.3 and 6.8 on the Richter Scale. How big were your earthquakes?

As a teacher, it makes me smile to read a student write that they are looking forward to getting back to school. I'm glad you've had projects to work on while you were out.

@Ladanger I am in college. I've been taking art classes. I've been in College for around four years. Art classes. I am a self-taught artist. The only reason that I've been going to school is so that I have a structured schedule.
