Greetings from the End of the World! Wish you were here!

[sommeille]

This comes as a warning to those of you fortunate souls on my friends-list who have escaped the force of this catastrophe thus far. By the time you read this, I shall most likely be dead. Arm yourselves; draw near your beloved ones, amass a fortress of tinned soup and leftover fruitcake to stave off the coming famines. Otherwise, place a noose

Turns out it was all just an omen for the Tokugawa midterm. I didn't even submit mine in the end.

I have a plan about how I may deal with the now-60% final though... watch this space!

Poor you, you would have been right in the thick of it, huh xD i heard it was worst in Sydney. We got it up in Hillbillyville too, although nowhere near that extent. Although I thought there was a fire at first because it looked like the air was filled with brown smoke.

[sommeille]

Yeah, you're lucky to live in the sticks for once: in the city it was nightmarish. XD Rather than brown, it was this ominous bloody red in the morning. I mean, you look at some of the pictures and think, "pfft, that's a shoop, I can tell from some of the pixels and whathaveyou," but it's NOT. It was THAT RED.

Nightmarish in a good way, though! :D

You had me worried! I thought that I had missed Blog Like it's the End of the World day twice in one year! D: Which is twice as much as most years. ._.

Anyway, glad you're ok and not buried under dust for all eternity!

[sommeille]

Would that it were but a simple "Blog Like it's the End of the World day", friend. Would that it were...

Gah, YOU WOULD SO LOVE THIS, DUDE! ;O; It was like shutterbug central on the streets today. It was like the world had its own "blood filter."

[xreddestinyx]

I love that you remembered the Blood Filter! XD

And yeah, I can totally imagine myself running around with my camera and choking on dust until you yoinked me back inside. ^^;

[spherehunter]

I think you have a brilliant future as an author ahead of you.

[sommeille]

D'awww. You're so nice <3

Even the best author in the world couldn't make up the kind of bizarre cityscape we were seeing yesterday. I'm sure there are were lot of schoochildren in Sydney yesterday, who are now going to one day grow up to create a new SF genre of Australo-neo-cyberpunk.

THOSE PICTURES *A*

I wish cool things like that happened to me. Instead, I get random rap battles in my college's cafeteria while I'm trying to do homework :|

[sommeille]

I KNOW! I sure wish I had the photography gene... Or, y'know, a camera. Man, it would've been the best setting for cosplay photos ever, too. /dork

Pffft. At least you do your homework, though, that's one big advantage you have over my life. :D
