scary night

this happened at around 7:30 pm.. scary.. march is known to be fire prevention month here.. what's more scary is that the house in the vid is directly in front of our apartment and the wire that sparked continues to the house beside ours (i realized that after taking the video).. how's that for a connection? i noticed prior to taking this vid that something was already happening.. but i was too busy eating.. hahaha!!

anyways, we initially thought there was nobody inside the house since the lights were off.. i was about to call the fire station and meralco (the electric company here).. turns out they turned their general switch off and reported it already.. the house is made from light materials which even made it more vulnerable..

what's weird was that the firemen used water to put it off.. uhmm.. are you supposed to use water on electrical fires?

i don't think i'll be able to sleep well tonight.. meralco guys already checked the cables but i'm not comforted by that.. it was dark already.. i hope they check it out again tomorrow..

i will be on vigil tonight..
