Amidst the hooha that is the flood that happened earlier this week, the area in which I live in had to have a little taste of the aftermath. Power cut from 10AM yesterday to 2AM today.

Let me tell you.. it was sheer hell to go to bed last night. The whole neighbourhood was enveloped in darkness, and it scared me quite a fair bit. I slept in the same room as my mom and my sister, and I could hear my mom fall in and out of sleep as my sister just snored, happily sleeping.

There’s no question that I had trouble sleeping, and when I finally fell asleep, the fact that I toss and turn a lot (even though I’m not bothered), woke me up. I thought I was asleep for more than a few hours, and hoped that it was nearly 5AM so that I could just get ready for the day, I realized it was just past midnight. How nice is that, eh?

The funny thing was, the moment the fan in the room started to move just a bit, I woke up and woke my mom, told her that the power was finally on! Never have I been so excited to go back to sleep! LOL.

And, so I did.

I really don’t know how my aunts, uncles, and grandparents did it. They live in Batu Bersurat, and they haven’t had their electricity since Tuesday! Kudos to them.

Now, life resumes normally.
