♥ [UPDATE] Hurricane Irene
There's a storm brewing...
So these days, all I hear about is Hurricane Irene and to be honest, they scared me. >.< I was deciding all day whether to have my parents and I moved or not (because my brother isn't willing to move) and today, I decided to stay put until later, just to see how things are going. I mean, we always have my grandma's place to stay at. It's an extremely short drive from our apartment. The mayor has put out a mandatory evacuation for Zone A and guess where I live? In Zone A. But I live higher up so I'm not as worried about getting flood. But I'm worried about the winds. I mean, for me, I think it doesn't matter where you go because the winds are going to be the same. So I think if there's no threat of flooding for us who live higher up, we should have a choice of whether to stay or not, right?
Another thing we have to worry about is the power outages and well, water. I mean, I keep hearing that we're gonna have power outages in lower Manhattan and I expect that but what about our water system? Any problems? I need to know if I can poop or pee the next day without it stinking up! Anyway, I'm just waiting to see what happens next. Also, I don't like how the news media is reporting Irene. I really hope it's not as bad as they're making it out to be. Maybe it is or else Bloomberg wouldn't have shut down the MTA and do a mandatory evacuation but then again, Bloomberg did mess up on the snow storm we had a while back and probably over-reacting so that if anything happens, we wouldn't blame him this time. >.>
UPDATE #1:
No, there's nothing yet on this side. All day, it was just grey and I think rain is starting now, with some winds. There are a lot more people staying in my building than I thought. Oh well. I decided we should stay. We got places in this building to hide anyway. :P

But that's not why I'm updating. I'm going to go a little emo here. As the day passed, I felt myself wanting to go out there, by the river. It wasn't because Leyda and his siblings were there (although that's a bonus). It was because I became emo again. Lolz. I think I just wanted to see my heart out there. Once the storm starts, the water will start go crazy. It'll flow with the storm. The water will crash here and there and will be so violent and turbulent...which totally described my feelings now. I wanted to be by the river so that I can somehow synchronize my heart with it.
And no, I have no plan of throwing my body in there. Although I do sometimes think about how nice it would be to do so, but I have no plans of dying soon. Especially since I finally got a job after all that has happened. I really want to feel like my life is finally becoming something after all this time of being absolutely nothing.
The reason why so many disasters are happening is because the earth is sick and I'm heartsick (because of a stupid someone who keeps making me like him and not like him at the same time with his stupid nonsense). The earth has natural disasters and I have emotional disasters. I guess I can relate. :)
