Zombies? No, we’re just attached to our phones.

Dear Diary,

I was watching the news earlier-well, actually checking people’s snapchat stories, but close enough. Everyone was freaking out that they had lost power, and that it wouldn’t come back on. In 24 hours, none of those people will ever get to post anything else. Ever. My iphone is down to 8% battery, so I figured I should write in this old notebook I found since I won’t be able to make Instagram posts about today, and someone should document it. What happened this morning was beyond odd. It started out with people saying they’d started to see things, like dead people walking around. Then at about 11 all the electricity shut off. All the people on my street were wondering what happened, since there’s no storm happening right now. As it turns out, a few towns over near the hydro building, the towers had been knocked down, causing a major blackout. People are talking, saying crazy things like zombies attacked it, taking away our main source of energy. That’s nonsense if you ask me, but things have been rather strange lately… Around last week I started noticing some of the people at school looking paler than usual, some of them even walking around like they were sick. But that doesn’t mean zombies… does it? If there is something outlandish going on I’ll be sure to make more entries, but for now I’m just going to try to find a way to charge my phone.
