Disaster

This is really overdue
It happened on 31st January night to 1st February in my hometown, Segamat, Johor

By the way, to those of you who text me or came to me asking about my house during the flood

Thank you so much for the concern!

Thanks thanks

It was hard to explain how's the flood though

The toughest part is cleaning the mud sticking on the floor after the water subsided

I even get mild sunburnt from cleaning the house garden with my Dad and Bro

I got pictures standing in the middle of my house garden with water near my knee level under the rain helping my Dad collecting those useful stuff that was floated away until they were stucked at my house gate. Too bad it was in my Mom's phone.

Let the pictures do all the talking that may answer most of your concerns

Pre-flood, save everything you can from damage!

In case you're curious, the water did covered half of my piano after that! 

Rescued my dog to stay in the balcony 

The "No Hope" moment when the water finally sneaked into my house

This was around 11pm 

Water level the next morning around 10am

My grandma woke up quite early at 5am, she told us that the water level covered the whole red tin you see on the right 

Oh ya, this is my house garden that can fit 100 people for BBQ!

Hahahahaha

New empty shop lots behind my house

Years ago, there were only trees and monkeys

They cut down all the trees and build a bridge and those shop lots 

Another view around my neighbourhood

That was my house side gate 

Our lunch during the flood!

Nice whey =D

We were drinking 100 Plus because everyone was sweating working out to clean the house as soon as possible for Chinese New Year

Once the water subside a bit, we clean the place without the water

Did I tell you we are not only having flood, they cut off the electrical supply for a few days

This is how I spent my night but I didn't want to sleep early

My brother and I will chat in the living room only accompanied by the lotus candle

This was only around 8pm

Blister!

Those thick mud made every movement wearing our slippers TOUGH

I got this while sweeping those thick and hard mud in my house garden

Look at the house garden area or perimeter, it took us the whole day

Eventually after that, the blister popped when I stepped on something in the kitchen

Ouch! 

 2 different color tone!

This is not clear, I have sunburn actually

Until today there are still remnant of skin peeling off


Family "dai siu jie" a.k.a princess doing all this whey!

2nd flood experience, more mud to sweep!

Love
