I will provide you with details about every day life in London during the Blitz. You can use this information to create a journal entry. When writing a journal entry about such a traumatic period of time, it will be important for you to show fear and emotion. My own great-grandmother lived through the Blitz in London and developed severe anxiety from the almost constant bombings. She eventually abandoned London altogether and spent the rest of her life in the country. This was a common story among Londoners. Those who survived the Blitz were left with emotional scars.

Life during the Blitz was extremely difficult. The worst of the bombing in London lasted for over fifty days in a row in September and October of 1940. Bombings occurred during the day and at night. Air raid sirens signaled coming attacks from the Germans. People evacuated to underground shelters in basements, Tube stations, or backyard shelters. Metal tables were sometimes used in homes if people did not have time to exit to a safer place. Often, people emerged from their shelters to find their homes damaged or destroyed. While many people took precautions by seeking shelter, others left London entirely. Some parents sent their children to live in the country while they stayed in London. If possible, sometimes the entire family would relocate. People reacted to the bombings by supporting the war efforts in Great Britain, though some petitioned the government for better safety measures and shelters.  Some people left London in despair, while others sought to rebuild and help their neighbors.  Regardless, Londoners lived in fear and many had to deal with the emotional trauma of the Blitz. Even after the city rebuilt, people carried emotional scars. It was a time of uncertainty in London, and it led to different reactions.
