Blame it on the rain
Now, there had been a heavy downpour last Tuesday night, that had badly affected my entire neighbourhood, and Brunei nationwide. I think it has to be the worst flood since my 10-years stay at the current crib. Even worse was the death of two bruneians that made newspaper headlines the next day. A very sad tragedy indeed. Syuk even had his car towed the next day after his car failed to start while driving in the harsh flood and current near the Kilanas area. He was just making his way from sending me home and I felt guilty to my tummy. He had to abandon his vehicle cuz water started to pour inside the car. Truly truly sorry. However i did manage to stay awake til 2am watching Obama's inauguration day over the CNN wif my family whilst pampering the paranoia syndrome in our head, fearing the water might just flood our home (it sure flooded the store tho). We're gona expect more rain and thundershowers during this month of January and it might stretch to March. El Nino, the meteorology department/centre calls it. To me, it's just a painful rendition 'when mother nature strikes back'. So, be safe people. Extra extra safe.
Below are some of the photos taken during the day of the hazard.
