being it a public holiday, all i did was have a heart-talk with my laptop
finally its home, fresh and clean.
like this:
and today is the day tsunami pulls a comeback for us
it hit Acheh in the afternoon around 4
i felt the shake this time, in BM.
at first i saw the computer shaking and i thought it was my headache
then i grabbed on the chair which i feel the tiny shake of the chair as well
honestly, earthquake wasn't the first thing to pop out
more like, i expected it to be some giant stuffs moving near my house
im thinking stuffs like...strike of zombies
i even imagine how it would be like if the zombies move their tank along
like, what i've read in those JiuBaDao's novel
until my mum asked me bout anything shaking
cause she is on the sofa and she felt the shake
i replied yes and she conclude that it should be earthquake in Indonesia again
i tweet bout that 15 seconds experience of shake
and friends text me bout the shake they have in their homes
chingu was in the car and she felt nothing
i think she initially thought i was trolling her or so
lol. bad history i have on her. those #OnlyBestFriendsGetIt stuffs
most people updated bout their own experience on those social sites
and i was shocked by the amount of people evacuated from those malls
seeing them standing outside of the mall got me wonder,
"HOW DID THEY FIT THIS AMOUNT OF PEOPLE INSIDE?"
then parents came home saying that most malls evacuated and called it a day
the evening news were flooded with repeated details from the internet
except i need not load those videos
everyone looks worried, i think i spot some people crying
and they are malaysian
they are at the background of interviewees
and they all looked at a direction and cried
i dont understand! #WhatKindOfSorceryIsThis
okay. enough for the facts.
(btw, this is the way im expected to write in my exams. lay out the facts given,
align them the way you needed, followed by your thoughts--see below)
---> Hardworking enough to blog like exam answers #LikeAStudent
everyone was worrying bout tsunami
and people are all leaving malls
making massive jam in the car park
i wasnt really sure about the hit of earthquake
i dont even know how life is Acheh is
but i felt helpless
at the moment when the tiny shake was on my laptop
it didn't go all #dramalogic where i have the urge to call my love ones
well, dont blame me. im blessed to be born in malaysia
where i hardly worry bout nature disaster
the most devastating nature disaster i had could be rain that causes flood
and i started sitting there and wonder how would people in Acheh feel
supposing their communication network may be affected
and those photos of people crying in front of destroyed home all popped up
imagine women who holds their mouth and look all helpless
it might appear hipster-like but im still saying this
i felt some deep sadness and helpless inside of me
i went speechless for a while after massive tweets of whats going on
lying on the sofa which was shaking
watching people saying how they escaped from the house in penang
......what about acheh?
could a series of disaster-scene-people-sad-and-helpless occupy the following days newspapers?
and some people are raising the topic of 2012-world-end-mayans story
all i did was sit there and did my own thinking
i believe things happen for a reason
and by reason, i mean it leads to somewhere
NOT SCIENTIFIC REASON
you know, its public holiday today
everyone should be with their loved ones spending the days
and the shake was too tiny to cause damage
its more like a sign where god wanted you all to go home
just stay where you belong
nothing in particular, just, this reminded me of how blissful it is for one to be at home
like those serious-case patients always dreamed to die in their own home
most of the time, they are barely sober,
just, you never forget the feeling of home
when you're home, you need not prove it, you will automatically feel it
i kinda feel a sneaky fortune when i realize i could have been out with friends today
and i will be stuck in the situation which i hated the most --> the human sea
its been kinda ritual that we don't like hanging out during public holidays
cause these days, things got unacceptably expensive
and crowd will kill your interest to do anything
there would hardly be places for you to sit down and catch ups
UNLESS thats the only option we have
or we usually strike it off our list
plus, public holidays are the time where you get to be with families
when people who works would stay home
and everyone gets a break from their usual routine
in my house, parents would lie in the living room
fight over us for the television
so. yea. thank goodness i need not stay stuck in the crowd.
AND
during the whole happening
everyone was sending regards to everyone
#Faith-In-Humanity-RESTORED
we weren't that cold-blooded after all.
"Whatever you're doing right now, take a break and think of those people in Acheh. Then, get back to reality, being a more thankful person"
seriously, never take anything for granted
you always get what you're worth for
when you act like a bitch, then more bitches you will get
some call this karma,
saw call this "i wanna play a game"
and me? that's life, the way it is.
