The Typhoon

Things happening during the typhoon that took place this weekend. Which consequently made everything super wet... Since it was Mid-Autumn festival, I got to spend the weekend at my relatives' houses. I even got to hit up Costco and Carrefour to stock up on snacks... That made walking in the rain (back to the dorms) really hard, as I had one small umbrella and three huge bags...

The typhoon has caused major havoc around this tiny island. Insane rainfalls and heavy winds... We're talking waist-deep water in places, and winds so heavy that people can't walk forward and signs are ripped from the side of buildings... Such a scary weather phenomenon.


NTU students at a Clubs Day fair. The entire gym was packed...



The view out of the NTU library. It looks out onto Royal Palm Avenue.



Some palm trees that line the main road of campus (and the dreary grey skies)...



I tried to take this three times. :) Finally. I just really like the splash...



This is to show the ZILLIONS of people in Costco due to the typhoon. Either avoiding the weather, or stocking up on food...



Another photo depicting the people jam



The torrential downpour that had me trapped at the library today...
