Paranoid

~*~*~*Paranoid*~*~*~

The earthquake in Sumatra two days ago not only shook both our TBS and ADP buildings, it shook my nerves too!

The first earthquake happened at 11:50am (got the news from STAR sms) but nobody felt anything.

At about 1pm, Claudine called. "Jie, TBS building shook! We are asked to evacuate...So, no more classes for today!"

I was out having lunch with my colleagues at the time. And some of them thought i was pulling a joke. We were all hoping that it was a prank, cos we didnt wanna be locked out of the office as we all had lots to do. <<-- i was especially pissed, cos i had some super urgent matters to revert back to our PR agency, as well as designers. sigh..

Yups, when we approached the office. Everyone was out. We were all waiting for the fire brigade and building engineer to arrive and assess the situation.

This happened before a few months back, in Nov when the earthquake hit Medan, with Richter scale of 6.4. And we were all kept out of the buildings for 3 hrs. Now, barely less than half a year later, there's another earthquake.

Horror horror!

I seriously wonder how many of such earthquakes (spillover effect) can our buildings withstand.

=(

Did any one of you feel the tremor? Are you feeling as paranoid as i?
