Like a Swamp
"Rain like crazy. Flood until knee level.."
- Reynard
- Reynard

Struggling my way through, battling with nature is inevitable. No one see it coming, like storm making a sudden appearance. For once, that text message seems to be way exaggerated and I thought it was another of his wild imagination on pulling up my socks. Never doubt such a playful puppy could be serious for that period.
It was until Daddykins make a turn near Shanghai Road, making my heart pounds faster upon witnessing the road turned like a small river bank. I know, there's no way I could get to school in time. Vehicle struggling with wheels trying hard battling with the current.
Apparently, the school magically transformed into a little swamp covering a quarter of the place. Staffs and students making their way in with pants pull up to knee level. Yes, knee level.
Just like way back in kampong days when it's monsoon and unbearable flood dominant the city.






The aftermath was disastrous with us(teachers) doing the cleaning together with the students. The whole atmosphere mirror like some massive relief campaign. Treat ourselves to a piquant lunch was uncalled for. I wasn't my own self, picturing myself queuing with the rest of the hungry folks.


And meeting after meeting was such a turn off after such an exhausting day. I've got myself Staciee` as a sense of satisfaction. More to new acquaintance to Frankiee`.
