Re: What was your first thought this morning when you saw the red/orange sky?

Yeah sometimes you find you have to remind yourself that these are adults you are talking to. Absolutely fucking fail.
like you do realise that there are people doing the HSC who are adults? dont get cut up about it okay

Woke up.

Me: "Mum, is the sky red?"
Mum: "Yeah"
Me: "Oh, good, thought there was something wrong with my eyes"
Mum: "The world's ending"
Me: "Whaddya do?" Then back to sleep

Then dad got the theory that it was some kind of chemical warfare situation and refused to let me go outside. Then he turned on the news. Then I got the urge to watch 28 days later :D

Actually I also thought of this book we read in year 10 called Children of the Dust by Louise Lawerence.
Freaked me out for a slight moment because in the book the dust is poisonous or something.
Then I remembered how much I hated the book and decided to disregard it completely.

Dust Storm sweeps the nation

I know, bad pun.

Q+A-Is Australia's dust storm linked to climate change? | Reuters

It's affected me today while I'm having exams and all I could smell while sitting the exam was dust and filthy filthy dirt (not to mention bringing some fowl sewer smell with it... or perhaps that was me :confused:)

Anyway, have you been affected? Post pictures of the weather if you have taken any!...is the dust/wind making you cough etc.

stupid dust. >_<
