well, after mc left for hk at 4.30am this morning, i knew i would want to drive to work. although parking is expensive near office, it was simply a rare occasion for me.
so there i was, all ready and packed to go to work. it was already pouring when i left the house, only to find it getting heavier as i entered sle/cte. vehicles were moving very slowly, snail’s pace as you might have described it.
initially there were plenty of traffic on both directions, each side moving ever slowly. i was travelling south until after 1 or 2 lighting striked possibly about half a km away. not long later i realised there were lesser vehicles travelling north. class 95 kept reporting on water ponding and glenn were digging at the word ponding and how it sounded “stupid”. lol.
shortly just after passing amk first exit i saw a huge tree collapsed in the next lane. the entire road was closed off! when i passed by the tree, i turned over, there were about 4-5 cars affected. super long trail of vehicles stranded were not able to move at all. i truly pity those affected by this aftermath and hopefully their insurance can help them out.

EDIT: gary said it would cost $500+ just for the smallest unit!

it’s released! after much hype about slick new features on the iphone.
with iphone4 coming out very soon, iphone 3gs users like me can still enjoy some features from the new iphone operating system. while other smartphones out there are able to enjoy 3g video calls, surprisingly iphone made a late entry into the video call scene. only the new iphone4 has a front camera and video calls are made possible with facetime, possibly one of the new apps that will come together with the iphone4.
on a separate note, apologies for the lack of blog entries. in the midst of planning something big that will change my life forever. will still try to update whenever possible; and i can’t believe it, i haven’t watched a single world cup match till now.
it was raining in the morning today. didn’t expect the rain to cause flash flood especially in orchard areas.
i couldn’t believe my eyes either, but after seeing posts on hwz and straitstimes i can’t help but wonder what happens to the underpass? flood as well? or only on the roads..

new jap class starts today.
omg, i’m feeling the jitters of not touching the language for such a long time. every single grammar vanished with every dead brain cell over this 2 months period. shucks..
if we’re supposed to speak in full jap tonight, i’m gonna be cooked.
by the way, i noticed there are more and more japanese used in local tv ads.. i really wonder if their message would get across to the audience here?
