EARTHQUAKE
OMG!!! So exciting! Got earhquake! Was so tired after talking to bobbert and john on msn... decided to go get some sleep! Suddenly! Everything started shaking! It was around 12.10. My parents were so frantic they quickly got dressed an ask me to go down immediately. I was kinda shocked cos the whole building was moving so frantically!!! The lanterns (which i havent took down from CNY) were swaying!!! EEks... I opened the door... And everyone was like rushing down from upstair. I kinda got giddy and my heart felt weird... So continued to slowly make my way down smsing as many ppl i can rmb! And i kept saying "so exciting!" to my parents!
Then we like waited downstairs to like one... Talking to all sorts of neighbours... bonding session... some claimed thier picture frames were like falling off the wall! kinda freaky when i think back now... waited and waited and finally we decided to walk back up... 21 storeys... We alked and talked and gave up and took the lift up.... Now blogging and probably going to sleep. Have to go early to meet jie yu to borrow his uni to wear... No time to buy today. Sigh...
Lessons learnt today:
1) always bring ur valuables along esp ur handphone so u can sms ur frends aout the lastest happenings
2) if the lights start flickering and u live on the 21 storey, dun bother climbing down cos u are much safer one top. (Only 4 more stories of rubble wont kill!)
3) u are supposed to stand away from the building when u reach the lobby, not congregate and sit on the benches in the void deck.
4) Always stand near the lift once the earthquake ends so u can chiong up and not have to wait in line or resort to taking stairs
5) if u walking up and u see the lift, immediately shout to ur slower family member downstairs to stop it
