Silence Speaks

Eclipse, my foot!

Disappointment washed over again. When the alarm rang at 740, i knew i had decisions to make. Life-altering decisions. Somewhat.

Anyway, it's not like you get to witness the solar eclipse on a daily basis. So based on that argument, i woke up, settled comfortably on my um bed trying to get a good view outside the windows. I was aware that i was dozing on and off while trying to stay awake. Read somewhere that eclipse was to take place between 7.40-8.40. Obviously it didn't happen. Was conversing with Shuxin and Theresa all the way after that cos i thought i missed it during one of my countless shut-eyes moments then they said they haven't spotted it either.

Received intel from T afterwards that 9.11 might be it. By then dark clouds had already gathered and the ever practical me had doubts about it. Nevertheless i went out to the living room for stakeout in the offchance that i might be proven wrong, which of course didn't happen. The temperature did felt slightly lower though. Dad said it was over before he left the house. I was -.- They were watching it from the TV which telecasted from who-knows-where.

Then updated intel said it would happen around 9.48 or smth. So i decided to take a 40min nap in the direction of the windows. It prolly isn't much of a surprise that well, it didn't happen. At some point in time, i couldn't determine where the sun was.


-
The initial plan was to upload 2 pathetic photos that i've taken then blogger seemed a little screwed up. So oh well.

-
the forementioned pathetic photos;


maybe the sun was eclipsed by the moon in say, somewhere between those thick dark clouds?


looking like every other ordinary raining day
