Yes, after 6 days I'm able to face the screen again and Oh I love you my pc! I've missed browsing and updating.
Last Saturday, September 26, Manila became water world as the metro was flooded due to the non stop rain from tropical storm Ondoy (Ketsana) who left 277 deaths (and climbing up). Everywhere you look there was water... and I mean water up to the roofs of the houses. It's like hurricane Katrina but much worse. Just go look at the you tube videos.
Our house was flooded at the height of the storm and my pc was not spared. The flood inside the house rose as high as above the knees. Many important documents like passport, sss, itr got washed away by the flood. Things like dvds, and my childhood paper diaries and so many photos destroyed.
We've been able to clean up the house already and all is okay. We're still lucky as we have a roof over our head and comfortable bed to sleep and food to eat. Others aren't so lucky though. It's sad to see all those who where left homeless by the floods and to see the many evacuees.
There is a new threat of super typhoon "Pepeng" (Parma). They say this one is classisfied. Since we don' have hurricanes here, weathermen are saying it's like it's like category 5 hurricane. I hope it swerves to a different direction and spare us the wrath. Filipinos are stilll reeling from the calamity of the flooding that storm Ondoy left the country.
Asia(ns) suffering from natures wrath again. Flooding here and in Vietnam, Earthquakes in Indonesia and Samoa and tsunamis wiping out houses and villages.
Times like these.. prayers always help.
