Typhoon Ondoy

I know most of you are aware of what happened in the Philippines, particularly in Metro Manila. Typhoon Ondoy (International Name: Typhoon Ketsana) brought non-stop heavy rain which caused floods. There are a lot of houses and cars submerged. Even celebrities became a victim of the floods. The government declared a state of calamity in Manila. People are in dire need of food, medicines, clothes and the like. Many are now homeless.



0:42 Kinda like Titanic.

I’m so thankful that my sister and brother are safe. Thank God.

Manila & Subic

I went to Manila for my annual check-up. We left Tacloban at six in the morning. We arrived at 2:30 AM the next day. We used our car that’s why it took us around 18 hours before we reached our destination. But if we took the plane, it would only take less than an hour to get to Manila. The problem is I’m not allowed to ride a plane anymore. After the check-up and a few days of staying there, we decided to go to Subic and visit my uncle.

I love Subic. I really enjoyed my stay there. Traffic’s not heavy, less pollution, everything was in order and the rules are strictly implemented, no excuses. It felt like I was in the US.

We went to Ocean Adventure. I’ve always wanted to go there ever since I saw it featured on some TV shows. And I wanted to see a dolphin in person. We were kinda lucky because Kablog, a TV show being aired here in the Philippines, was having their shoot featuring the dolphins of Ocean Adventure.

Next day, we went to Zoobic Safari. I really enjoyed every single minute that I was there. Well, except when we were with one group of family who were noisy. It’s a good thing that they decided to eat lunch first before continuing to the second part of the tour. While me and my mom, together with a group of 3 tourist, decided to go on without them. We went to building where the tigers are being kept. The place was so stinky. They feed every tiger 7-10 kilos of meat every single day. Then we went to the Tiger Safari where you will ride a jeep and if you buy a chicken, the tigers will chase or attack the jeep to get the chicken. We didn’t buy a chicken, we were to scared.

I don’t care if I was absent from school for 2 weeks because my Subic trip was so awesome!
