Yeah. Bagyong Ondoy hit the Philippines on September 26, 2009. It's September 30, and we're still recovering from the devastating blow Ondoy brought to our country. I consider myself lucky because I didn't experience the wath of Ondoy. SO, maybe it was rainy and I couldn't go out of my house but hey! I didn't lose my home. I didn't lose all of my possessions. I wasn't trapped in the roof of our house, seeking for help. I didn't encounter floods that might lead to my death. Honestly, I was scared. I was scared that in just a glimpse, life can be lost. My mom was saying, "It's a great equalizer. Ke-mayaman ka o mahirap, tatamaan ka rin ng bagyo." She was right. Imagine, even those people who had money experienced the storm. It even flooded their homes and destroyed their belongings. Even the pinoy artists' homes were flooded. Tsk. I realized that in God's eyes, we are one. We should be one through happy and sad. Maybe this calamity is only a reminder for us Filipinos that we shouldn't discriminate on the people below us.
Bagyong Ondoy also brought us goodness. Look at the people helping out to the victims of the calamity. We are one as we extend our services to those who cannot rise from the wrath that Ondoy gave. It taught us to appreciate life and help others while we still can. I myself want to volunteer because it'll fulfill my heart's desire. It's really entising to help others and make them feel better, don't you think?
Anyway, my sister's home so I ain't got privacy anymore. Haha.
I'm planning to go to DLSU tomorrow. I'm passing my form since Kuya L.A won't be able to do it. Actually, I'm not really fond of DLSU. I'd rather go to ADMU but---my course isn't there. Tsk. My choices are DLSU,UP and Miriam College. If I don't pass in UP, I'll go to Miriam College. That way, I'll still live in Katips along with my sister.
Peace out! :)
*I kinda like this guy. But he still has my heart. :) (You know who. :P)
