[Things You Do When Darkness Falls]
It was a starry night tonite, everything went like normal; too normal that it seemed like the calm before a storm... Then guess what? There really is a 'disaster' comin!! Voila! And there goes the electricity we're all depending on. All the lights in my room blinked out, including my comp! Immediately I can hear the voices of complainin from the boys block and everywhere. Darn... I was doin my English homework which has to be passed up tomorrow...
I went to the window and look outside ( there's the comp lab opposite, the boys block on the right & basketball court to my north-east ). Several boys were comin out to the balcony and showing their handphone lights, torchlights ( duh.... ) and students were all comin out of the comp lab. The whole campus has blackout!! My roommate came back and everyone was gettin out. So why wait? Just get out before I suffocate inside! I went downstairs as Ganaesh was waitin there. Whoa....seriously this is the first time I've ever experience these kinda things. The campus was full of ~life~, lots of people playing torchlights, lots of people scurryin down to escape the heat and darkness, lots of commotion goin on. Of course the important places in campus such as library, engineering lab, spr room and emergency lights were supported by generator.
When I was downstairs, my roommate called me. She said according to a senior ( she's lives next room ), whenever a blackout occurs, valuable things better be brought along or kept properly as theft will always happen. So I rushed upstairs ( sheesh... ) and brought my stuff along. The windows were closed as she also said that they climbed in thru it!! So g. & me went to spr to hang out there, but later yin san called me to yam cha cos ep was blackout too! So I agreed and we called wai kit too to rsu. Coincidentally m yee called me too to yam cha with him and his fren there cos their place also no electricity. So we hang out together ^_^ It's cool to chat together ^_^
Weirdest thing happened then... The mamak was so bright but suddenly it also blackout! Wa...everyone was yellin with bewilderment. Yet a few seconds later the lights resumed. Yo, what's wrong with the current eh?? Then after sometime the lights in campus resumed. Nyways, chattin was fun; m yee and fren left firs as they got early class tomorrow. So 3 of us chat & chat until 'goin-back' popped up in our mind.
