Oi, Ondoy

 Ondoy, On doy, Ond oy, Ondoy :| Not-so-happy anniversary, Ondoy, :| BTW, thanks for the unexpected INDOOR swimming pool.

 We all have our crazy alibis on what we were doing during the terrible Typhoon, Ondoy. Mine is really COOL =)). I had a near death experience ;) .
 But unfortunately I'm not in the mood to "make kuwento", so I'll just summarize it.

 I eat lunch. Rain starts. I play guitar. Rain; very, very heavy. I still play guitar. Flood begins (very unusual where I live). I keep playing guitar. Flood reaches our front step (Ethan and I were intrigued.). Papa begins to worry, tries to stop the water from entering. I still play guitar. Flood enters house. Try to save things. Flood reaches my knees in the house. I take our important belongings (heh. I forgot to save my cellphone.) and stash them in the highest shelf. Ethan panics. Our furniture is floating. When everything is stacked, we pack a few of our dry clothes, and evacuate (I BROUGHT MY HOMEWORK!! \:D/ SIPAG, no? :D). The flood is like a river, there's a strong current. Ethan is crying. Water reaches my chest, tip-toeing. My slipper falls of, I try to retrieve it, I get separated from papa, I feel like I'm going to die, construction worker helps me, I step on a squishy thing. We reach our destination. Water reaches my chin, tip-toeing.

 Nothing much happened after that. We just stayed at a friend's house and waited. :)

 BTW my brother, Elijah was at school, having the time of his life eating spam and stuff like that. My mom, on the other hand, was having thee worst time of her life stuck in mini-stop. She had an adventure of her own, but I shall tell you about that maybe some other time.

 WELL, anyway. Thank you to everyone who helped me and my family during Ondoy :) really appreciate it!

 BTW.. I actually had fun evacuating :)) I even said to my dad, as we battled the current, "Hey pa, at least we're burning fat!"
