what a night!!

i predicted there would be a very BAD traffic jam.. and was i right? hell yeah! and luckily dad fetched me so half the way i didn't drive... what was worst was that it was raining heavily.. and when i say heavy.. means heavy!! thunder storm lightning and all that!!! the traffic was so bad, we decided to find a nearby place to eat... ended up in Sunshine Square.. thought of eating at Pizza Hut there but it was CLOSED!!!! and McD was PACKED!!! so ended up at the lousy food court with food that is about to finish... all left overs.. sigh....
so i folded up my pants, and had to share one umbrella with dad, and walking in water and getting half the body wet from the car to Sunshine Square.. just for that few metres... wet!
anyway, managed to get some tomyam beehoon fish which has nothing in it, just beehoon and 3 small pieces of fried fish... sigh... and dad... pity him, only had rice and some touyu egg and toukua... wat to do... the foodstalls at the food court all no more food...
while eating i had a phone call and messages.... it seems my grandma's hse, LeNid @ Green Lane was flooded... flood in the garden nvm... but this time water masuk la wei!!! water went in through the living room, into the rooms into the kitchen...
so after dinner, dad and i went to Tesco to get Anna some dinner, poor thing no makan and she's cleaning the hse.... when we went to the hse.. the gate couldn't open, rubbish all stuck to it, dad had to try clean it first... somemore it was dark and raining... bad bad bad.... then got in the house.. saw the mess.... at least it was only water.. no mud.. cause Anna managed to put a piece of wood at the door with cloth to prevent water from coming in... it only managed to stop the mud.. not the water.. water still came in...
there was water everywhere... living room, kitchen, my room the most... dad's room... and it seems the bathroom was overflowing as well.... i didn't see it happen though.. when we got there, water has already supsided and it was time to clean up...
actually.. this is my first flood.... when the floods happened in Bayan Baru where we used to stay, i was too small to know and help, i was 5 years and below.. hahahah.... mum said she'd put me on the car roof and left me there while she and dad started to clean the mess ... hahahah how cute is that!
so last night was my first .. heheh a virgin in floods... i got some towels and a mop and a bucket... tried to soak and mop the floor trying to get water into the bucket, squeezing towels and mop... in the end i ended up using a hand pail to scoup the water into the pail - squating... hahahah... was fun though, get to play with water.. hahaha... so did that for a while, till dad came to the rescue, he managed to clean his room, not much water (mine was the worst) and he used the brush... so i did a barrier from the room to the bathroom with towels and mops.. so when he started brushing the water out from the room, it'd go to the bathroom and no where else... smart eh? ;) ahahha.. so much faster that way! only then i could mop properly (fan was on on 4) and just waited for it to dry.....
then helped in mopping the living room and dinning room... not much water though.. just abit here and there... and abit of mud... i'm sure anna today will do proper cleaning.... dad and anna was cleaning the outside, garden... where King (the dog) was making so much noise... it seems Anna said when the flood happened, King came in the house and went to hide somewhere in the house, that chicken shit he is... hahahahha....
so by the time we managed to at least have the house neat and clean from the flood it was nearly 11pm.. tired man... and i got to work this morning... sigh...
Mr China Man, i CAN mop! and clean a flooded house now.. ok?!
