I am sure most of you have seen pictures of our kabayayans smiling inspite of the catastrophe brought by Ondoy.  We are indeed the happiest people on Earth in spite of our predicament – being a third world country that is.

I laughed my head off when I watched this video.

Panoorin niyo tong video na to para naman kayo ay ngumiti ng kahit konti:

Another typhoon is approaching. It is not an ordinary typhoon for it will be bringing 200+ kph wind. Pepeng, a super typhoon, is expected to land in Aurora, Isabela this Saturday morning if it won’t change its projected path. Aurora is where my JLC’s family lives. Huhuhu. I panicked when I read the news and immediately call him. I told him to call his family back home. As of this writing, we can’t contact them. We hope and pray that they are safe. After what happen to Manila and surrounding areas, you can’t help but be paranoid – that it there’s a posibility that it will happen to other provinces as well – given the fact that this one is way much stronger than Ondoy. Huhuhu.

I had experienced a category 3 hurricane. It was hurricane Wilma I believe. Or, was it Dennis? I can’t recall. I was also still in Florida when hurricane Katrina hit Louisiana very bad. Category 3 has sustained winds of 111-130 mph (178-209 kph). It waas bad. You really could hear the wind. The good thing about Florida, unlike the Philipines, it is ready for this kind of calamity. It has designated evacuation centers. It has signs all over the state where you could go in case of a hurricane. I could only wish the Philippines would be like Florida but no, we fail in comparison. It is sad.
