Storm Ondoy


Yesterday news flashed that the Storm Ondoy hits the Luzon. After work I wanted to watch the UAAP Junior Finals between DLSZ and ADMU but I don't know how to operate the TV in the office so I just settled my self in the internet. In the facebook I saw posts about flash floods caused by Ondoy in the Katipunan. I thought it was in our place so I rushed and call our house. My nephew told me that there's not that much rain but there's a strong wind. When I checked the site again it's the Katipunan in Quezon City who got floods. hahaha I got panicked easily. The streets of manila were turned to rivers as to the height of the waters reached to a 2-storey building. People are stranded in their house roofs. Cars are washed away with the water. I can't imagine my self being in that situation. Thank God we're not able to experience this calamity. After getting news about the storm, I missed my home and my family. I bought burgers for them and had a chitchat with my teammates then went home straight. The whole night I kept of watching news about the storm. Reports said that there are still peole stranded in their roof at night. Someone delivered their baby during the storm.

I'm so excited and thrilled for this UAAP Season 72 Finals... My Ateneo Eagles will play with the UE Warriors. But sad to say due to the calamity in Manila the game schedules are moved to October 1, 2009 (Thursday). Kinda happy since it is my rest day I can watch it at home then today I will be playing badminton. win-win! Go Ateneo!

I hope and still praying for the safety of everyone...
