A BAD start to the new year

The below is fact, NOT fiction. :(

had a real horrifying incident yesterday night.
i live on the 15th floor...
was in the lift going up to my flat.
the lift reached the 13th floor...and broke...it bloody just broke.
electricity was fine...the rope bloody broke! stones and whatnot started falling on the top of the lift like a bloody downpour...shit i was scared. the lift was tottering...there was another person in the lift...

anyways, somehow that other person was really cool...so i came to my senses and started ringing the bell in the lift...and somehow i managed to open the inner door of the lift. kept ringing the bell, untill finally the watchman on duty came to our rescue. he opened the outer door of the lift from outside...with some sort of key.

the lift was stuck midway between the 13th floor and the 14th floor...however, there was some place to squeeze thru..

god know how close to death i was...am very very shaken...cant trust the lifts anymore. today i walked down all 15 floors, remembered i had forgotten my jacket, walked back up 15 floors and then walked back down 15 floors...

damn...i had the IIFT enterance test today....was so freaked...messed up the paper...
