Snippets of joy

First time going out for recee on MCS heng bus.

I love taking bus/car rides... can see the scenery out of the window... and slowly eyes closing.
More interesting ones are like the go kart place, where the person was very eloquent and brought us around the track and all. An expensive sport I would say, but seems fun, it's something like driving, except that you don't need a license.
Then went to Lilliputt. Think you all would pronounce it as Lill'POOT' instead of Lilli'part' HAHA. It's an 18-hole indoor mini-golf game, with sound and motion effects when your ball goes from one place to another. I complete the 18 holes 18th hole! With 10 strokes though. HAHA

Was back in MCS by late afternoon... and after a couple of hours.
*LeeYan using computer*
"Why is the table shaking?" LeeYan ask.
"OMG, why is the table shaking?!" ShiR ask
*Everyone starts to exclaim*
*Everyone look out of our room and saw a lot of people in the office*

It's an unusual sight 'cos we thought the office usually is rather empty, but when we all felt the tremor, suddenly the office is filled with people. HAHA Maybe 'cos they were always 埋头苦干 that we didn't see them.

The people outside saw us looking out and started laughing and waved to us.

Then Jov and all start to comment on how calm my reaction was when I felt the tremor, and starts to imitate me "Why is the table shaking?" in a very poised manner. ZZZ

They start to on almost every TV in the office to catch the news on CNA. And so we waited for the news to be reported... (And I thought going to CNA studio to ask them might be faster HAHA)
It's such an interesting sight 'cos everyone crowd around the TV (hanging from above the ceiling) just to get a better knowledge of what happened.
And so it was a 7.6 magnitude earthquake at Samoa, and it seems like there was tsunami too. In just that short, say 10 minutes? of tremor we felt, already 70 over people died. Scary.
Earthquake in southern side of Sumatra.

Police from the security side was called in to inform them about the tremor we felt, and it appears that only our building reported of feeling the tremor. >.

Flo, Ying & ShiR said it was their first time experiencing tremor which surprised me 'cos I experience it almost everytime there's an earthquake in Indonesia. Then I told them that those who live in Toa Payoh always feels it 'cos it's Da Ba Yao ("大把摇"). And Ying's reaction lagged and she started laughing non-stop when the joke was over. =x

And after that we were off from work, Kalai was about to take lift and we told her not to as "In case of emergency, do not take the lift". So she 'obeyed' us and went down by stairs, and we hurry to take the lift down and met her coming down the stairs where she exclaimed about us lying to her HAHAHA!

Also, now we know why LayH hates animals. =x
