i'm alive when the sun sets and the lights come up all over town. i live my life to the fullest, and i want nothing but the best for me and those i love. my life is an open book. i hide no secrets, but i protect those that are entrusted to me. i love my life and everything about it, and given the chance to live it again, i won't change anything.

after the storm

Sunday, December 3, 2006

typhoon reming mercifully spared the metro last friday, veering southwards but wreaking havoc in bicolandia, batangas, marinduque, mindoro and romblon before heading out to sea.

it caused the most damage in bicol, however, where the heavy rains caused mudflows  from mt. mayon's slopes. at this time, about 400 people are confirmed dead or missing in the areas devastated by reming. it's far worse than milenyo ever was.

and i'm thankful that it spared manila.

here's a photograb from the abs-cbn news website, showing bodies retrieved from the mudflow in albay. there are several more missing.

i pray for those who were affected.
