Hurricane Ike!!

Hey peeps out there!!

just a note to say...WE ARE SAFE IN AUSTIN!!! Do Not Worry!! :)

Been getting urgent emails and notes frm family/friends back home who's heard abt the lethal hurricane hitting Texas this week, well, (i was hoping to catch a lil' action too) somehow it hasn't touched us much..yet..

Probably some strong winds on Friday night, sorta like those u get at East Coast Beach, but not more than that..we didn't even get rain the whole of Saturday which was when the storm was predicted to arrive in our vicinity!

Yup..so much for Waikit's hope of "cows swirling past our windows", but nah, hmm unless the storm decides to lag till Monday and we can get classes off yay! haha. okay no seriously, the devastation in Houston and Galveston the hurricane left in its wake seems pretty bad..people are evacuating here for shelter coz their homes got smashed up and all..oh man..feels weird that we are just a few miles away from them..

BUT..so far there's not much hint of a storm coming our way yet so thank you all u peeps who are out there worried for us..I feel the love!! (and i do miss home still..some things are just weird here)

Will update as soon as i get more pics of e stuff around me..i should be doing one on how school looks like here (it's damn cool la!) and life on/around campus..for now..catching up on procrastinated assignments! :)
