Kuching is out of lights !

When was this ? lol ... saturday afternoon if im not mistaken XD its been a long time since i updated anything so this is considered a update [?] haha ...

Anyway yeah like the heading suggests , Kuching's electric supply went KO last saturday ... due to some Sesco cable / line problems ...

started around 5.30 in the afternoon and went on till around 9.30 pm ... thats for my area ...

so since we havent had a major blackout for so long a time , we didn't have many candles around
XD so you can guess we spent most of that time in the dark ...

but i was lucky i guess ... lucky that my hp's battery lasted long enough ... lol with 1/4 of its original power XD .. so i was not so "lonely" and could update the current situations with some friends ... situated around sarawak ... well not the whole sarawak but up till sarikei and sibu area only ...

of course major power downs like these only bring many misfortunes to the community ...
car accidents and chaos ensued ... after the power was cut suddenly ...

i personally saw 10 accidents when i went out later at night to search for a particular thing that my sis accidentally lost that afternoon ...

and of course , business minded people made the most of this "event"

hawker stalls as well as cafes which did not have their own reserve power supply unlike the banks , hotels , big restaurants and such ... changed their dining atmosphere into a
"valentine haven" XD ....candlelight dinner , with the soft breeze blowing , a truly romantic atmosphere ... with the couples dining on ... Gu Bak Mi ... ... ... .. . . . .

lets just hope our power supply is not suddenly cut like that day again haha

thats all for now ... thats all i remember XD
