Storm Hits Carrollton

Today started off as a good day. Until around first period when the big storm hit us. During first period we began to hear thunder coming from within the hallways. Concerned what was going to happen, the lights began to flicker in some parts of the school. Lightening struck one of the speakers and it began a static sound. A friend of mine was sitting in the hallway working on a project and sparks flew out of the light down on top of her. Sparks flew out of the smart boards. Here I am sitting in third period and I really want to go home. I want to be with my parents. During storms I haven't got a good feeling about them. If I'm away from home when there is a storm and I don't know how to get a hold of my mom or dad in any way, I begin to feel worried. Neither one of my parents have minutes on their phones, so I can' text them to see how they are. Carrollton has got Flash Flood warnings. I love storms, don't get me wrong. But I feel I shouldn't be here worried while they may be home and I have no way to contact them.
