Being a New Yorker for more than 5 years, I am familiar with snow storms. However, I found myself being a total stranger to hurricanes. Although there were announcements for the coming Sandy all over the news, I did not know how to prepare for it.
What should I pack? Should I buy foods? If there is no electricity, the refrigerator wouldn't work and what's the point of buying foods? If flood coming into the building, where should I run? ..I was so overwhelmed and nervous.
The wheezing sound of Sandy put me to sleepless night. I saw some photos of homeless who couldn't reach shelters before the hurricane. I couldn't imagine how they went through Sandy. Sandy has left New York city with historical damages.
My thoughts and prayers go to those who lost their homes, properties and loved ones during hurricane Sandy.
