20070308 - short one
oh yeah and just a short one bout the tremors in singapore on wednesday. i was quite worried man. when i got a call from a friend who said there was an earthquake in indonesia, and that there were unconfirmed reports that singapore was affected, the first person i called was my mom. but for some reason, the line went 'the phone system of the country you're calling is unavailable'. it was just then that alarm bells went off in my head man, i swear. tried calling my dad but his phone was off. tried home, but no one was picking up.
managed to get through to my mom eventually. and she was in flower arranging class while the tremors happened. aiyo, my mom. she's gettin old. HAHA! JUST KIDDING MOM!
but yeah, it was then that i realize that family comes first. i thought of no one else but my family. kinda neat huh? then you start thinkin bout the people you know who may have been affected. those working in tall buildings and all. guess that's what happens when there's threat of disaster.
you think of family, then potentially affected ones and then friends.
by the way, the last pic was taken at one of my dad's projects. doesn't show alot in the picture, but the house is way beyound cool. check out the stairway man. and the lights and color of the walls. haha! if i had the chance, i would get my dad to design my house. hoho!
eh then on a lighter note. i seriously think SAJC principal's super kancheong. I mean, 2 years there and i already know how kan cheong she is. fuss over every lil thing. C'mon man Mrs Lim!!!! hahaha check this out..from channel news asia website.
A spokesman for Saint Andrews Junior College said the first tremor disrupted lessons and students were dismissed after the second one "to pre-empt further interruptions, and in the students' interests and safety."
aiyo! oh well, but better safe than sorry! the students must have celebrated and loved her for that period of time. sure straight away head to orchard road and compete with the ACJC and CJC presence in town. that's what i would have done if i were still in SA anyways ;p
oh yeah and thanks for hearing me out last night. you know who you are! and just wanted to say that i know you'll make the right choice.
