Seasons Change

On 4 May 2008 (Sunday) afternoon, all blue skies & everything nice. I was lazily & happily baking in hot sun treatment (with a layer of SPF50+ of coz ;P) on my trusty 2 wheels.

Everything looks fine and I'm expecting a spectacular sunset to go along with this kind of fine (but hot!) weather


3 hours later, something else came out of the blue instead. Smog begins to appear, clouding the whole skies as if to signify the arrival of an apocalypse.

I immediately felt uneasy & disturbed, but brushed off as yet another Sumatra forest fires at work.


I was dead wrong! Something more terrible happen elsewhere in Asia. Cyclone batters Myanmar, casualties feared

I'm not too sure if our sudden "Seasons Change" here have got anything to do with Cyclone Nargis @ Myanmar or vice versa. Whatever it is, the no of death & casualties are extremely severe in Myanmar. 20,000 people dead, 40,000 still missing, and hundreds of thousands homeless ... and still counting?!

*sighz* I sincerely pray for safe & speedy rescue efforts and wish those homeless & suffering find strength to tide them through this difficult period.
