All good now

Well not exactly all but atleast it's better.



Thursday was stormy and the wind was blowing like mad. Scary. I didn't see it with my eyes but I heard him blow with all fury and no remorse. He heralded destruction to those who sill cross his path. Milenyo (Millenio), the storm that he is, stormed his way in. To the eyes of a commoner, he is just one of the storms that comes every year this time of the year but to me he was a cavalryman commissioned to claim lives and properties in place for all that was forcibly taken away from her. He was sent for revenge. Nature is his mother and the son, out of love, does what his mother bids. He did his errand well.



Okay, time to lighten up. Hehe.. Did that scare you? It better.. Haha!



The worse we got was a brownout for more than 24 hours and missing a day of bath because the subdivision's tank won't pump water without electricity. We experienced a a few hours of electricity through our neighbor's generator but it didn't last for the whole night. A night without electirc current is hellish 'cause it got the mosquitos on a feast again. You can't keep the doors closed and the mosquitos helped themselves and paid me a little visit. After the storm, the streets looked literally like "DINAANAN NG BAGYO". Leaves and stems are everywhere and a big piece of plywood even got flown to our roof. Hehe. Probably from one of the neighbors. Haha. Tough luck!



Friday. Electricity was back by 9pm, just in time for the Majika Finale. And my cousins came 'cause there's still is no electricity at their boarding house. Also it was the last time I ever played with Ponyang. The youngest cat in the family. My cousins and I went to a major bonding. Wahaha. Saya. We took pictures, talked about a lot of things, had some laughs. We were up until 4am. Haha, tatag!



Saturday. Fiesta. Nothing big. My mom just cooked a big dish for the family and for sharing to some of the neighbors. And though everyone's happy and hyped I took a moment to mourn. Ponyang is gone. Some heartless jeepney driver, who doesn't even live here in our are, hit her and crush her head to death. I didn't see it, and I was blessed because as my cousin described it... it's heart-wrenching. Akang, the mother, went to her dying child who is still somehow moving. I have no idea how animals mourn for the death in their family but I can feel the pain. It's just a kitten, that f*cked up driver must've thought so he did it on purpose. I don't know when, I don't know how but I know that somehow he will pay for what he did. Annoying as they may sometimes be, I love our house cats as if they are my children. Aww.. No use in trying to be bitter about this death. It's over and done all I can do now is say goodbye.



Paalam, Ponyang.



Back to my girls... My cousins and I went to the mall to grab some chow and take pictures. Fun day if it wasn't for the heavy traffic on the way to the mall and back. Later we went to watch a beauty contest held in line with the fiesta. And we kept joking about the prestige and kept making fun of the mistake the hosts make, and the contestants. Haha. Highest level laughtrip! After the show we went to my room to have a one-on-one talk with one of my cousin who's been having supernatural encounters. Oh, well...



The electricity is back but the cable still isn't. It's good that channel 7 is back but without an antenna, there's hardly a color. I missed the first few episodes of the new season of American Dragon jake Long but I hope the cable's back before October 8th so I can watch Read It and Weep.



The storm is over but what he's done while he was still here lingers...



Wala lang!
