Teh C the Flood Is Here Again

It has been raining everyday for the past one week. Water level of the river was just alright, not until yesterday when it kept on raising with no sign to stop. Sigh.

Woke up this morning to be greeted by the surprise. Water has raised and flooded the road in our residential area.

So far the house is safe. But I’m not sure how long it will last as the flood kept on raising from time to time. Just see the comparison of the above pictures. Only one hour and I can see the difference already.

The first bad flood that I experienced in this town was on end of 2007, where the water level outside the house has reached over my knee. Definitely not safe for those in prom dresses to go out the house, unless the party theme is trash-and-wet something like that.

Let’s see what surprise we’ll get this time.

The flood was here again

It looks like super-heavy-rain-which-caused-flood-inside-and-outside-the-house always happens at least once in a year. October 2007 I wrote about When water turns into an enemy and October 2008 I wrote about Say Hi to Mr Flood.

This year, the flood came one month early which was on last Saturday. I went to Cambridge Mall with boyfriend in the afternoon, when the sky has turn extremely dark. Not long after that it rain heavily while we sipped our coffee and chocolate drink at Starbucks.

The rain haven’t stop after 2 hours. My Mum told me that the flood has come into the house and that it was impossible for my Dad to fetch us home. Flood here and there. Don’t even mention about sedan cause MPV like Innova also couldn’t go through the flood.

So, we were literally trapped at Cambridge Mall. Great! We had dinner and sat for few more hours before the flood had finally gotten better.

Long time no see, Mr. Flood! There was at least 5 cm height of flood in the house. Imagine how high it was outside there.

As soon as we got home, we boyfriend quickly changed and helped my parents in throwing the water away (to the bathroom, which is also the source of the flood in the house). Luckily my superman is here, else it would be me who did the task in above picture. But, poor him, had a body ache and sweat so much after that. Erm, see the bright side, it can be counted as fat burners although not an instant one. :D

Now, I’m just wondering (more into worrying actually) what if I am not here and my bro goes studying abroad, how does my Mum gonna handle the flood? Wait until the maid comes in the next morning? What if the flood comes on Saturday? The maid doesn’t work on Sunday.

Sigh.

Say Hi to Mr Flood

It was 6am when I was awaken by the sound of the heavy rain and lightning. Due to the cold weather, I continued my sleep and woke up at 7am, 30 minutes earlier than usual, and found out that we were greeted by Mr. Flood!!! ‘Great’~!

The floor ‘vomited’ water

We were sort of trapped in the house. Not only that, the water also flowed out from the floor which made the house (first floor) was flooded with water too. Flood outside and inside the house. Sigh.

I’ve been spending my morning by helping my Mum to throw the water (inside my house) away. I sweat like no tomorrow and ended up with a reddish palm now. But thanks G, the house is clean already. I am going to pending my whatever design and writing task that I have until tonight or tomorrow morning.

I remember last year (2007) around October, there was a huge flood too like today.

Thanks for visiting us, Mr.Flood~! Please, DO NOT come back again. :P
