To make my week even more exciting, the other day, I was sitting at the balcony with my friend at the office and then while we were talkign suddenly I felt a tad bit dizzy or at least it seemed like i was swaying a bit. We both paused in the midst of conversation and then we looked at one another.Me : Did you feel that?
She: Yeah I did…
We looked at our colleague that was sitting nearby and he was starring at his cup that was on the table. He brought his face closer to the table, then he started shaking the table slightly with his hand.
My friend and I looked at each other again.
Us: Gavin! Yes we felt it too…. and we laughed.
He looked up and said he was wondering why his coffee was having the ripple effect. Whoa sounds like Jurassic Park..
Everyone else felt it too and everyone was either staring at the ceiling to look at the lights or they were looking at their palms to see if they had gone mad.
Next thing you know we were evacuating the building, even though the shaking of the entire building only lasted for a second.
But man…you don’t think about it till it happens to you.
For people that are suppose to be evacuating they look extremely calm.
What is this a picnic?
It seems that Indonesia had a minor earthquake at that time. It is not the first time i felt this before. But then again, I don’t know why we were laughing at the taking it so lightly. As we were told to evacuate, I ran to grab my handbag, external harddisk and the laptop. Whoa man… I know why take anything at all right.. but you never know.
At least now i know what are the important things I’ll grab if there really was a real evacuation.
But man…you don’t think about it till it happens to you.
