I was recently coming back from my vacation. We were on the plane with my friends, enjoying our long-haul flight and excited about coming home and sharing your impressions of the trip. Suddenly the lights went off and the plane started shaking. We all started panicking as the flight attendants weren't showing any signs of confidence either. The plane stared tilting sideways and it seemed to last for hours. Then we heard the pilot's voice trying to calm us down and explaining the turbulence. To my surprise his simple words comforted my mind (and my stomach) and I felt a lot better. The pilot in command took a decision to land at the nearest airport, which wasn't very far. So very soon we were standing on the ground and waiting for another plane to pick us up.
