i was sick last night because I the whole day i didn't have an umbrella with me. So i slept with my runny nose, red eyes, and asthma. I set my alarm for 6am because i was planning to get some readings from the library and do some papers, so that all will be set from the remaining three DIBA BIDA shows till prod party. but because i was sick, i woke up at 1030. I texted Jermaine to take care of stretching and told her that i'll be a little late. i was receiving a lot of texts from my cast saying that they would be late and that it was traffic+raining hard outside. when i went out of the room, i saw this:
i thought it was an amusing scene, so i took a picture of it, went back inside the room and blogged it. HAHA. after awhile, i went out again to finally take a bath, and saw this:
that's jermaine's room. that's water coming in the first floor rooms. i sent jer the image and told her to come back na. she did, and she was screaming. hahaha. sorry, jer you're just a funny personality. HAHA. :) so anyway, for sometime we didn't have electricity so i just bummed around. actually i was unproductive today. didn't do anything except internet when the electricity came back on.the first floor dormers had to evacuate because the water was up to their knees. so the daughter of the prefect will be sleeping over with us tonight, plus jer. haha. here's jer the refugee, crashing our room for the meantime. haha
so we were online the whole day, plurking with other people. we've been receiving plurks and texts from people who were stranded in school. eventually, Ateneo came up with a gameplan. (gameface on!!) they gathered all the students and stranded faculty and staff in the caf and told them that Kostka, MVP and the Caf will be open for the overnighters. it wasn't advised for people to go home. Pao and Vian are still on the road, hope they're fine. :(
i haven't really gone out, i'm scared for my life. but here's what was happening outside.
click here for the video, i can't embed it. what's weird is that there's a current. there are waves. beach ba ito!? haha. here's one more video from katipunan.
scary. check the 0:22 mark. check out the van and the car. oh and please please please check out around 1:24, you'll witness a car sinking. that's in katipunan. it's the empty excavated lot that used to be Banco de Oro near KFC. shit noh?
after hearing that the caf was open (we were so hungry), we decided to go to the campus. I asked Jer to buy me food while i went to the org room in MVP to see if my friends were okay. :) they were spending the night in the ENTA room. boo, but at least they're safe. we're still checking to see if everyone we know is safe.
mark&friend, omar, and angelo in the ENTA room. :) that's my hand. haha. david went to mass in the MVP lobby, while tal and bianca were in the ACOMM room. :) Thank God everyone's safe.
i'm a bit worried for my family in Bilad, Tarlac though. as i've said in my Immersion blog, it's hard to look for food in their community especially if it's raining. our OSCI formator made kwento and told us that there were times that it would rain super hard, and they wouldn't have anything to eat for 3 days. not even rice. they usually hike 2 hours to go to the Gasak to get food. but with the rain and the typhoon, i don't think it's safe to go out. oh dear and the wind. their houses aren't stable for typhoons. i hope they're okay. :((i remember when i was just a dear 'ol freshie, bagyong Milenyo was the worst i've encountered. no electricity for the whole day, you could hear the wind blowing super hard, trees got uprooted, the road was messy because the plants and trees were everywhere. we didn't have food for the whole day because no one was delivering. when the rain died down, mika, cha and i went to eastwood and ate whatever was open. Binalot saved us. :) when we returned, it wasn't raining anymore so cha and i decided to document the ruins (ruins!!) of the calamity.
uprooted tree in front of xavier. :)
sign near bellarmine hall. :)
North parking lot. :)well, i hope everyone's safe. :( global warming global warming global warming. please don't say we weren't warned.
I was at the caf awhile ago and i asked the lady at the cashier until what time will they be open, and she said, for as long as there's food. so they're going to work overnight. huhuuh. thank you to the people in school who make sure we're safe and sound, who make sure we have food to eat. :(
there are more families out there that need our help, so if you have relief goods like food, clothing and medicines to donate, please bring them to Cervini Hall, Ateneo de Manila University. There are people there who will accept your donations. :)
please pray.
