Turbulance when flying.

It started in HS when I went on a school sponsered trip to London. It was also my first time ever on a plane and i'm quite nervous about the whole thing. The morning we were to fly home they had mechanical problems with 2 of the engines. Airline needs the day to do repairs so they decide to rent a bus sending us down to Brighton for the day. That night we board the plane for our flight home to Calgary.

Halfway over the Atlantic i'm sound asleep in my seat. We hit a really bad patch of turbulance that jolts me awake. My first groggy thought is engine failure and I start to have a panic attack. The teacher sitting beside me calms me down and reassures me it was only turbulance. Since that time I always get quite anxious whenever there is turbulance and refuse to sleep while flying.
