sad, sad times..

It's been raining all day! Oh, Life! I used to love the rain! The wind is just so cold! I love it! But not now. Not anytime soon perhaps!

It's been raining all day here in Naga. Our house is a mess! I feel like I cannot do anything. And yet, at this rate, still, water has not yet officially entered our house.

I got hungry earlier so I looked for food. Here we are, stucked at our second floor, eating. Not as easy as any ordinary day since we had to look for left over food and be happy with what we got plus a little junk food and canned goods, but still, we had food. No matter how hungry I am, food, any food I eat for that matter, does not appeal to me! I feel that the food is bland. I am not enjoying it. Reason: For every spoon I put in my mouth, I cannot help but think of the conditions of those who were affected so, so badly by Ondoy.. and now, Pepeng! When will all these ever stop? Have we not suffered so much from the wraths of Ondoy that Pepeng still had to come?? I don't know!! I really don't know na what to think!!

Now, here I am. A lot of people have been texting, asking if I am okay. Let me just clarify. I am okay. We are okay. We usually have baha downstairs everytime there's a typhoon here but still, we are okay. We were prepared. Always have. The drainage system here in Naga is good and so our only worry is the overflowing of the Bicol River. Unlike in Manila where we need to worry about every single thing! OUr families, our friends, and most especially, those who were affected by Typhoon Ondoy. They haven't even settled yet and then here's this one again!! Ready to take on whatever's left of the people in Rizal, in Marikina, and in all the other places where water is still high!! OH.EM.GEE!!

God, please save us! Help us! Especially those who need help most!!
