Bad Weather
|
Only one word is needed to describe today... RAINY!! I got up at about 7 something... looked out of my window and there it was... the rain... and the wind... I decided it was still too early to get up so I went back to sleep and after what seemed like a long time of sleep but in fact was just maybe about 15 minutes... the rain was still around... it was rather cold... maybe coldest since I got here... so I got up... and like usual first thing I do is check up on my laptop activity... Fiddled around a bit and the rain was still pouring... for a moment it looked as though it would stop soon but got heavier instead... By the time I started making breakfast it was still raining... and I think you can guess by now... it was practically raining the whole day... they scene was perfect for some 'Mary Poppins' umbrella action... you know the part where Mary Poppins was coming down with her umbrella and a gust of reall strong wind blew away all the other nannies?! Well yeah... I could actually see people walking like they were fighting against the wind... and I'm pretty sure some umbrellas were turn inside out today... Hahahaha... haven't tried that personally but according to my housemates it can get pretty nasty!! And finally finally FINALLY... we managed to get our stupid internet connection working with some pure dumb luck!!! Guess it's the rainbow after the storm kinda shit... hahaha... but seriously... Thank God!!!! Been fussing for 2 days... but I can't seem to get my wireless to connect properly to my line... so I actually have to sit on the ground right outside Priscilla's room, where the router is located, plug in my laptop and do my stuff there... how pathetic ei!! Damn my stupid laptop... or rather my lousy knowledge of the laptop... arrggghhh!!! I tried... I really did... sigh... Hope there will be good weather tomorrow... Oh and another thing... something really interesting happened in my apartment today... it was only me at home... and I was cooking and had the TV on... At first I didn't really notice anything weird but then I heard something like an alarm... so I went out to the balcony and checked... yeah there was an alarm ringing... I was wondering where it was from... the I saw fire engines coming from a distance... the station is pretty close by... So then I opened my apartment door to see what was going on and I heard an evacuation alert... amazingly I didn't panic... maybe it was all the boring fire drills in high school that made me cool... I switched off the TV... closed the balcony door... switched off the oven which had my lunch in it... grabbed my passport and keys and took the stairs down... I'm on top level by the way so had to walk ALL THE WAY DOWN... After some fiddling around the firemen managed to turn off the alarm and it seemed to have been some false alarm... well it was not from my building anyway... So then everyone just went back up to continue whatever they were doing... At the time when I got down from my apartment... I realised I had forgotten two really REALLY essential item... my wallet and my handphone!! Hahahaha... So lesson of the story is... I am so stupid... hahahaha... Cheers... |
