back to civilization

So I'm glad everyone's okay after that supertyphoon last Thursday. The last thing I remember doing before we got thrown into the wilderness was having dinner Wednesday night hahaha.

Well anyway, Wednesday night we had to go to the UP Theatre to watch this beauty pageant. Foundation Week, okay, so no choice really. Actually we got there late and left earlier than everyone else because we didn't want to fight for a cab hahaha. Levs was saying it was like the diva attitude HAHA, the arriving late and leaving early thing. There was nothing special about it, just a bunch of girls and boys embarassing themselves because they could not comprehend the judges' questions.

It was just Me, Kate and Levs that night because Maan and Tina could not make it. We headed to Greenbelt and had dinner at Bollywood which was wonderful, I tell you. When we arrived there were live musicians playing Indian instruments, then we were seated beside the television so we could watch the Indian film they were currently showing HAHA. OMG but the food was awesome, go ask Kate and Levs. We finished everything. So then we went down and Grif joined us for coffee at Coffee Bean. His place is near Greenbelt lang so he dropped by, and he was a bit sick that night. Well we had fun talking, it was great so we stayed a little later haha. Then Levs got a cab after and went to Embassy, Kate and I got a cab and went home, and Grif got a cab too I think 'cause he didn't bring his car. Thanks guys tons of fun that night!

So well the next thing I remember is waking up without electricity Thursday morning, then the supertyphoon in the afternoon. So yeah Thursday morning to Sunday morning --- NO ELECTRICITY. So no way we could charge, right, which means no phone and mp3 whatever too. Good thing Grif dropped by Friday to lend me the book he was talking about (ang daya he had eletricity all this time in his condo! hehe), so yes I read that the entire day and finished it Saturday morning.

It's so hard NOT to have electricity, we can't do anything. But it's better than not having water right, which was the case for some areas like Las PiƱas I think. Last night we walked to 711 to buy anything cold, but went home empty-handed. Kate and I even got tired of talking, so it must be that bad HAHA.

Happy Birthday Fiorelle! I sent you a message haha. I miss your LIVELY thing, hopefully I'll see you guys soon. And Kristoffer! I got your message haha. I'm so sorry we haven't been able to go online recently. Want us to call you up again? HAHAHA. And how's your laptop? We love you (Kate and Tomtom too).
