Hi y'all. It's trial times for us and my fellowmen again. If the Americans in New Orleans think that Katrina was the worse of it, think again. We are currently having 2 typhoons that are as strong as Katrina.

The first typhoon, internationally named "Ketsana" (Ondoy in the Philippines) is only a tropical depression, yet for only 9 hours it ravaged through everything in the country. Its 9-hour reign of terror had rains equivalent to a month's average rainfall, so you can only imagine the devastation it caused. There were flash floods, and hundreds of people died specially up there in the northern part of the city. If you were actually there, you can see floating corpses around the area. The victims just stayed in their rooftops. Me and my family weren't spared from its wrath. Flood came rushing into our house up to the hips, and we had to wait for like 8 hours before it finally subsided. Some stuff were damaged, but at least it wasn't as worse as the place with the floating corpses. Rescue is still far from over.

But as people still haven't recovered from Ondoy, a super typhoon came in, internationally known as "Parma" and locally as "Pepeng". We are praying for everybody's safety. Wish us well when it passes by today.
