my experince...
I bet everyone in Dubai is now blogging their earthquake experience. Me, being a Dubain as well, would like to write a piece. As the office started to spin, making me think it was a weird headache, the sirens in my building went off (or on could be both), I was pulling myself away from some office work but got caught on the sun glare on my monitor , it made my head spin even more. I lifted my head everybody was running towards the fire exit. Calmly I picked my bag and walked down the stairs with them. All I could think about how I wished they were here; my loved ones. This was the moment that I wanted to share and experience with them. I reached the ground floor left the building and looked around; knowing for a fact they wont be there but still I looked left and right. Hoping that some external power eliminated the Khor and pulled the two Burs together. With shakey knees (I don’t know why) I stared at the horizon, and hearing nothing but blissful silence despite the chaotic situation around me, my phone rang. Thanks Mom for calling me. |
