Memoirs of the lift..

As soon as the lift incident happened few minutes ago, i knew that i need to blog about it.

This morning, i grabbed a Sun newspaper and came across a story about this malay guy, staying in an apartment, top floor (can't recall which floor anyway...). He was late to work, so decided not to join the crowd waiting for the lift, he took the staircase. After few floors, he reached 5th floor and saw the lift door was opened and nobody's in. So, without giving any 2nd thought, he leaped into the lift and fell. The lift was actually empty, i mean without the floor!!!!The poor guy died on the spot.

Me, on the other side, being someone having phobia for heights found that news was rather a terrifying one. I started to make sure that the lift is actually safe to go in (i mean with the floor), before i entered. But, i was thinking what if the guy was actually saw the lift was safe and something else urged him to go in...gosh...stop thinking about it.

So, few minutes ago, in need to pass some documents to my boss at 6th floor. Btw, my office is in 1st flr. So, after minutes waited for the lift, the lift came and quite occupied with students (btw, i'm working in a college). So, i told myself "i believe they have space for someone petite as me", and i squeezed myself in. So, we stopped at 2nd floor and few students went in and out. The door closed and moving to 3rd flr. Suddenly, the lift just fell with a 'thud' sound. Me, being someone who cursed a lot and it actually come out from my mouth easily shouted "SHIT"!!i was so terrified ok!!i'm so very scared of heights. If only i have choice to travel home without taking a flight...*sigh*

Gosh, enough of terrifying moments today..gotta get back to work.
