Memoirs of Ondoy

Image
At 10:35am, we arrived at the Puerto Princesa Airport. It was raining, but not that hard. I received a text message from my sister saying my mom is worried about me and wanted me to call. I called my mom. She's worried that my flight might be cancelled. I said, "we're already in Palawan, safely." She told me to take care because the typhoon is going to get tough. The flood downstairs is up to the knee level and she's afraid that it might go inside our apartment. I told her not to worry and then I hung up. I don't know what happened next. I stay tunned to the internet news, facebook and twitter. There I saw the distruction brought by the super typhoon Ondoy. Here's a compilation of pictures I got from the internet. Some scenes are disturbing.

I just arrived in Puerto Princesa, Palawan. Its my 3 day vacation and I've thought a gazillion times if I'm gonna blog this story or not.Anyway, here's my entry to Nuffnang's blog contest. It's about my friend and how we had Krrunch on our most memorable experiences. I know I shouldn't be blogging about this but what the heck? This happened some time ago and I'll try to write as detail as I can. +++++ Everytime I see Pringles I remember Luis, my childhood friend. We grew up together in a small village in San Mateo, Rizal. Luis lives about 2 blocks from our house. He's the youngest in his family and among the kids in the village we enjoyed our company. We both went to the same school. Our first baon is also the same. We were always seatmates and always partners in crime. If got scolded by our teacher, he got scolded too. When I'm in trouble, he's in trouble too. lol! Too bad for him coz I always get in trouble. We have a treehouse beside our home.
