The BIG universe we are in...

For 1 time, i realise that i've never look above my head at stars. Yesterday night at Pagoh, many of us ( me, family n couzes) witness this beautiful cluster of STARS!!!

It was like usual, family gathering, all talking away, watching tv and eating even its like 10pm+. Cyan n I were watching animations after animations from his whole collection. Then suddenly, the laptop screen jus turned dark, the surroundings too... guess what, blackout of course. There was abit of a commontion, searching for torchlights n candles, i used my LED screen DS to navigate (Proud of the DS for its bright bright screen). We settled down, then some1, not sure who, went outdoors then go like 'WOAH' so we all went out to see... starting, we gazed at the direction facing out from the door, there were like hundreds of twinklies! Then, another 180 degrees turn of the head...... THOUSANDS of them!!!! STARS!!!

Its extremely beautiful and gorgeous, they look so bright in the cloudless night sky and of course no 'man-made' lights. The 1st thought every1 had was 'how come we didnt realise the star scenery from here (pagoh) was so nice?' Every1 jus stood there for like half an hour... Gazing, faces up, neck rotating. Of course, we talked about astronomy, astrology and all those scientific crap and myths. To be honest, the whole sky was magnificant, its like a ceiling decor... i wish i had that in my room, so like wen lights out, it'll b damn cool.

It turned out rather cold due to the breeze, coz of no clouds? perhaps dark... so every1 went indoors, slept early also... pretty rare i guess... i was planning on a movie marathon, but nth i can do abt the power failure. However, learnt something... there are many daily things that requires our attention too... not jus like fuzzy things in sch or newspaper, we often neglect many many beautiful things and opportunity... hence i think i need to be more observant!
