What an artistic shot. =) Pamela took it.

Anyway, this picture of impending doom depicts what happened today!

Ok for those of you who dont watch news and are really out of touch with the news, there was a earthquake (6.6) in Indonesia this morning and tremors were felt all around singapore.

Such as in my school!!
@ close to 12pm
I was doing my Physics practical exam.. then i heard some murmurs among my classmates then i felt a little giddy. Then as i looked around i heard 'Did you feel that?'s and 'the building is shaking!' I felt like my head was spinning or something.
Apparently a small tremor passed through SAJC and many people felt it.

So we all evacuated the building and assembled at the track.. while the principal and other people call police.. MOE, etc. Then after 10-15 minutes they told us go back to our classes because have no official announcement by MOE or anything.

So lessons carried on for about an hour +.... nothing happened..

@ around 1.40pm
I was in the cafe (canteen) just waiting for 2pm when my Chemistry practical exam would commence.
Then cos my school cafe has 2 TVs.. either show announcements or CNA. Then it was showing CNA then suddenly i saw my school teacher on TV. Then we all realised that it was happening in our school then we looked at the nearby fitneess corner and we saw the interview going on!
So some of us started jumping up and down -- and we saw ourselves jumping up and down in the background!! hahahahaha. It was a LIVE interview la i wonder what would happen if someone just jumped in and went 'I'M GOING TO DIEEE'

Then damn funny you can see on TV that a large crowd was gathering in the background of the interview.. cos everyone was crowding around the TVs to see it. haha.

So after the commotion was over.. went back to normal.. i was just sitting on the bench just waiting for chemistry exam.
Then suddenly the whole floor began wobbling.. i could literally feel myself wobbling from side to side. I was sitted on the bench then my friends walking to me never feel anything. Then me and my other friend 'eh again again !! tremors!'
Then those walking one very blur huhuh. Then they faster go and sit down then they felt abit. i looked up and i saw the ceiling lights literally shaking la.

So they assembled us at the track again.. then this time cos got CNA cameramen shooting. Then everyone was walking to the track then me and my friend DASHED in front of the camera like panicky lidat hahahaha.

This time they made us stand in the field.. cos the track is like partially covered by some concrete shelter thing so technically we cannot be under it, then got CNA camera ma, so must abide to the rules ^^

Just some random pictures:
