That day, I was at the house of my friend José Hidalgo, near my house in Valdivia. The reason of the meeting was to talk about summer and holidays, everybody was drinking beer and playing poker, however nobody was drunk.
Before the earthquake the lights went off because the central system failed. My friends and me, spoke about the effects of this problem in a big party called “Noche Valdiviana”. When the earth began to move for two minutes approximately. Glass and furniture sound , and It wasn´t easy to me because I couldn´t get out of the house.
When the earthquake stopped I ran to my house. And I found my mum very scared, in shock. She lost her keys, and she couldn’t get out of the apartment. After that, she called me , and the telephonic system was dead. Later on, I finally could talk with my girl, she was in perfect conditions, and she said “ don’t worry Felipe, be happy”.
