Hengggg we’re still here, alive and blogging.The world didn’t end. So did you guys managed to catch the partial solar eclipse earlier this morning?
I was already up early by 6am working, and was also eagerly awaiting for the eclipse and hopefully some werewolves transformation perhaps. Ya I know lame joke, watching too much Underworld movie ni! Hahahaha …
Hmm truthfully nothing out of the ordinary happened when it did finally happen. It’s like someone turned out the lights for awhile.
It didn’t help the overcast dampen the visibility of the partial solar eclipse in Singapore, and I myself didn’t feel any different either, as I still look and feel like a Bangla (no disrespecting them of course), contrary to some reports people go berserk during such period.
Well here’s the video around Asia, which has better luck seeing the solar eclipse.

Guam – It started around 11:30 am Wednesday morning, and if you were wondering why the sky was darker during lunch time, it’s because the island was experiencing one of the longest astronomical events of the century.
India
People burst into an applause as darkness descended soon after sunrise as the moon came in between the earth and the longest total solar eclipse of the century.

Ni gelap kerana solar atau mendung hujan.
