On Sunday, we experienced a power outage due to the severe storms that hit the South West area. It didn't seem too bad to begin with as we still had daylight and of course our laptops and mobile phones were fully charged. And as day became dusk, our home looked like a castle so beautifully lit with candles and the aroma was just as glorious. However, after already 7 hours of no power, no sunlight, no battery power on any electronics...beauty became boredom. As someone who struggles to sit still at the best of times...I knew I had to fill my time with something to take my mind off the lack of electricity.
So much fun can be had in the dark :)
Here is a list of 10 things to do when the lights go out! According to me ;)
1. PLAY SCRABBLE
2. READ A BOOK
(Especially one written by a celebrity)
3. PLAY HIDE-AND-SEEK
4. DO PUSHUPS/ SIT UPS
5. TELL JOKES
6. RECORD A FRUIT FOR EACH LETTER OF THE ALPHABET.
A- Apple B- Banana C- Cucumber D- ?
7. PLAN NEXT HOLIDAY
8. PLAY CHARADES
(with torches of course!)
9. TELL GHOST STORIES
10. PLAY PICTIONARY
