hmm...

Storm in Subang Jaya gets reported to the paper.... while the very same thing that happened to my place here in Sg Long is unknown to the ppl outside... was it simply bcoz SJ is the more affluent residential area compared to my "ulu" place?

DISCRIMINATION!!!!

Storm in Sg. Long : The Aftermath

Well, took some shots while on my way to campus this morning, just to let u guys know the full brunt of the typhoon had onto... the trees! LOL! anyway most of the debris has been cleared up by then so wat u see is not what i saw last nite... it was even worse last nite... here goes...



this one were broken in the middle while its neighbouring tree almost suffered the same fate...

This was one of the tree that fell and blocked the road last nite... one which the Bomba men (they're not called firemen anymore, it's Fire Safety Officers to you! "Sir! Yesssir!") were removing last nite...

The Road Blocker main culprit... there goes the whole tree! and the Bomba men simply disect (chainsaw lah...) its remains into many parts... hmm... dry it up, good as firewood! anyone wana go camping? got lotsa supplies here!!


This one... i dono wana say lucky or not la... lucky coz he didnt fell last nite, still standing, but unlucky coz... well, see for urself, senget sebelah... just waiting for its time lah i guess... oh, and i pray for the house owner nearby... it's really slanting towards somebody's house! not to forget luxury cars also!!!




see this? taken at my campus, the same tree where i took some shots last nite... a bit better though, no more blocking the road...

so, to sum it up... it was really a typhoon yesterday... saw some shop's advert board really fell of as well. my landlord just called and the repairman are gonna come today... good.

anyway, i was wondering how would it be like if someone is standing out there in the middle of the storm... would he be, say, gone with the wind?

i was not aware of the full brunt of the strong wind that hit my place just now... not until when i went out for mamak at 11pm... it was not strong wind as i had thought, but it's a freaking huge storm out there!!!! freakin gale wind has broken & fell lotsa trees aroung sg long and at one place, totally blocked off the whole road!

bomba has been called to cut off the fallen trees and branches, too bad i did not have digicam with me at that time and that place is so dark, phone cam cant be of any help. however when i reached my campus, where there are some streetlight, i managed to take a few shots and this is 2 of it... freakin serious, isn't it?

It was raining damn heavily a couple of hours ago... since the condo unit i'm staying in is the topmost floor... the rainwater managed to seep through the asbestos ceiling and dripping in my room and the living room... gosh that was crazy... those rain water even managed to seep through the main window, making a mess to my whole room, it's all wet!!!





worse off, the wind blowing outside was so strong, that it blew off the asbestos ceiling and tore off the railings supporting the ceiling in my room's bathroom!!! jeez... that was terrible... the strongest wind this time.... this is the third time rainwater made its way through into my room... sigh...




anyway called the houseowner to let him know about it and see when would the repair work starts. the other 2 rooms of my housemates were not affected. only the bathroom outside were affected where the asbestos ceiling fell off but it was easily put back into its original place.
