So, yeah. I'm still alive and kickin'.

It's been a good semester for me (even though it's still not over.) Only finals to go.

I am taking this time I have to revamp everything in my PC and accounts on the net.

It's been hard for the past few days for our nation. Tropical storm 'Ondoy' did a real number on us.
Our house was flooded and it's already like a feet and a half higher than the street. Thankfully, nothing was damaged and no one in our family was hurt.

It's been a rough week for the Philippines. The flood waters have subsided but the storm left the capital and the surrounding towns and cities in chaos.

I know that religion and politics are not really good topics on the net but I am asking you guys to offer prayers for the victims of the typhoon. The death toll has come to 140 and still counting. If my parents had allowed me, I would be in an evacuation center now as a volunteer. Classes have been suspended until Saturday so I still have a week before I go back to school. I hope that my ROTC unit will help in the clean up. It's the least we could do to serve the country.

On the happy side, I am editing a lot of stuff for dA. You might have a peek of what happened in our neighborhood during the storm. We experienced a whole month's rain in less than 12 hours.

I'll leave it here then.

edit.5:17pm. Death tolls have risen to 240. If permitted, I might volunteer at some organization tomorrow.
