  urlLink Grass Moth Tue, 29th Jun 2004 - Blackout Finally, i experienced a blackout in my district after all my years of growing up in Singapore. And the funniest thing was that my younger brother thought it was his fault. Cuz at that exact point of time, he was trying to plug out the faulty mouse cable from my computer. Then the whole neighborhood around my area became pitched black. He came running into my room and panicking and saying "oh no ... oh no .... it's my fault! " .
Haha ... what a coincidence!!! Then i realised one thing there was nothing to do in complete pitch darkness. No fan ... no aircon ... no tv ... no hifi ... no lights ... no computer ... NOTHING! Even starhub mobile and singtel telephone lines network was down ... apparently too many people were calling and jamming the network. I was getting hot and frustrated.
Really really going crazy! Especially with the kids in my neighborhood congregating to celebrate the blackout with fireworks and shouting. I always worry for nothing! I got a bloody worrying mind. I kept worrying abt my love one. Till i just could'nt lay on my bed anymore.
Moreover, it was getting so warm and humid. So i took a long walk to Serangoon central alone. Till my good friend, David called and decided to meet up with me. Had supper ... bak ku teh ... yummy! Something struck me when i was walking towards Serangoon central. People would always move towards the light and stay there if they can afford it.
Nobody really wants to stay in the dark. We are like the grass moth constantly being attracted by light sources. And trying to shun away from darkness. Only those who are lost will embrace darkness. I would'nt want to in the dark. I want to see and be seen.
I have eyes for sight, ears to hear and my heart to feel. I shall not be in the dark! Only when i'm down ... ...
