stuck in a lift!

Something really funny happened to me and some of my Doc Pro team mates... SH, Jasmine and I had checked out the camera equipment to shoot in the library. We were to interview Dr Ho for our final project. SH got a fantastic idea to take the life, the handicapped lift at the Atrium that goes up to the 2nd level (where the library is). So we all got into the lift, together with the equipment.

As we pressed the 'UP' button, the lift moved up slowly, then came to a sudden stop. We tried pressing 'UP' again but we realised that the lift did not respond to the action. We then started to read the instructions and tried again, and again, and again....... then we tried the door, which was automatically locked shut... then we realised - OH SHIT WE WERE STUCK IN THE LIFT!!!! and it's not very nice being stuck in such a small lift, with the equipment and all... so we were stuck there for a while... and the lift actually is made of glass, like the ones in the MRT stations... so passers-by were laughing at us as we frantically tried to get ourselves out of the freaking lift... and we were running late so we had to call Dr Ho to tell him that we were delayed - cos we were stuck in a lift... what a nice thing to say to your interviewee ya? haha...

Anyways, we managed to get out when some passers-by came to the lift to help us... they called the security guards who did something to help us get out...

The moral of this story - never take stupid glass lifts that are for handicapped people - it's for them for a reason... definitely not for 'goods' and apparently not equipment and able-bodied people... argh!!!
