Bagyong Santi (first time to experience flood in Sta Rosa City) hehehe

Hi,

 

This is it, after the past two typhoons (Ondoy and Pepeng) that hit our area; finally this last one “Santi” who flooded again our house both in Sta Rosa and Lumban. This time I have photos taken in Sta Rosa City last Saturday morning October 31. It’s Friday night when we experience rainfall and strong wind. After my work at 6pm last Friday I went to SM Sta Rosa before I went home. The rain is not that hard until around 10pm. I borrowed umbrella to my friend because that time I’m in their house, were just living in the same vicinity. When I’m walking through the rain, I felt the strong typhoon at around 11pm. I slept around 12 in the evening. I woke up at around 3am because the wind blows our windows and it bothered us. Our windows are made of “capiz” and the house is almost old type. Strong rain and wind make water leaks to our window going to floor. “Tumuluto talaga sa bintana ung tubig dahil sa malakas na ampiyas ng bagyo at feeling naming liliparin ung bubong hahaha”. Some of my housemates transfer their bed to floor because of it. “Ang sarap matulog, malamig, kaya lang hindi kami makatulog, dahil sa ingay ng bintana at brown-out na”. Four of my housemate including 3 girls and a boy still went to work at 6am shift. They didn’t take a bath because we don’t had power and of course no water. I wake up at around 7am and there’s no strong typhoon. “Sarap ng hangin malamig at wala ng ulan”. But the flood is coming, hehehe. Flood is rising past along the road and soon entered in our house. After that moment, I took pictures one by one and we spent time watching the flooded area over our roof. Its fun to watch and lots of people is playing in the flood. Hahahaha I liked to go outside but the problem is we don’t have water to wash our feet at hands after we play in the flood. Better to watch them na lang. At around 12 noon no signs of flood and the road are dried. So I decided to go home in Lumban. Of course I didn’t take a bath because we don’t have water supplies. And oh my god!!! It’s too hard to find vans,jeepneys even buses going to our area. In van terminal at Complex Sta Rosa, “parang may relief goods distribution sa haba ng pila”. So I took jeep going to Calamba, then the situation is same. “So pumila na lng din ako at nag kakagula at unahan na sa pila at pagsakay”. Around 3pm nung nakasakay ako ng jeep from Calamba going to Sta Cruz. We passed through flooded towns of Bay,Calauan,Victoria,Pila,Sta Cruza and the Pagsanjan look like a ghost town, hehehe. Of course traffic sa mga daan dahil sa baha kay 530pm na ako nakarating nh bahay at brown-out pa. Ayun, kakatuwa na nakakapagod ang buong araw ko. Hahaha!!!!

 

Enjoy the pictures!!!! hehehe

My true "Farmville"

Hi,

It's been too long since my last post here. Quite busy in my work, hehehe
joke lang, tinatamad akong magpost eh. Anyway, my post today is regarding
what I've done last Sunday October 25, 2009. I had my facebook account, I
love playing "Farmville". Last Sunday, I realized after playing it, that I'm
already doing some farming since I'm a kid. During my elementary and
secondary period, I already was doing it because it is part of my subjects.
I remember when I was in Lumban Central, each grade level, gardening is part
of it. We were cultivating our own plot of soil beside our classroom,
because our school is very big and most of it is vacant. Our school is
located at mountain slope so the set-up is like an old school in a village.
There are lots of trees and fields, and a hills going to top of it, where
you can almost see the whole town of Lumban and its nearby town including
the Lumban River and Laguna Lake. I remembered way back then, we spent our
time resting at that place with my classmates and old friends. It's a good
and nice place. When you are at top of that hill, at your front is the old
town of Lumban, while at your back is the majestic mountain of Sierra Madre
and the Caliraya-
Lumot Hydro Electric Power Plant, the oldest dam in the country. It's a
historic place and a park inside it, attract more people every morning to
play basketball, jogging, biking, swimming, and lots of activity including
picnic. While in my high school life at Lumban Academy, gardening is just
part of CAT and Boy Scout. I remembered our days in Sitio Lacao, where the
new building of our school is located. We plant vegetables there. The air is
fresh, and "magubat talaga", because it's far from the town proper and still
under urban development. Sometimes to be getting there fast, we ride at boat
(banca) at the front of church then walk through the school. School is near
at Laguna Lake shore, so sometimes we go there to relax and sight seeing.

"Napakwento na ako", it supposes to be about my new hobbies, because last
Sunday, I planted newly grown bell pepper. I saw it our backyard. So I
decided to take care of it and transfer the siblings to a small pot. It's
like a nursery for the young plant. Then my plan is to transfer it again
after they were growing enough to stand by them selves. I just got this idea
from "Farmville". Instead I waste my time on internet, just focused my free
time in plants. I had lots of plan for my next week gardening activity.
Maybe I should start planting small like tomatoes and mustard. I remembered
again when I was young; I already planted vegetables in our backyard
including tomatoes, pechay, mustard, bitter ground, squash, okra, sitaw,
monggo, eggplant. I also try to take care grapes, but didn't succeed. Hahaha
I raised also ducks,chicken,bird and mouse when I was a kid. "nakakatuwa
kasi napalaki ko sila". What a good memorable young experiences.

Memories are still memories and become part of the past. Through your
journey in life, it adds more and more of good and bad memories that you
will cherish and can't forget, wishing that some of it may be back or erase.
But for me, I must be content for what memories I have and just cherish it
through my life.

Here's the sample picture of my plant. Hope you enjoy............until next
week for updates.

Binaha din pala kami!!!

Hi,

 

Hehehe, another update regarding last Saturday’s typhoon. I just found out this morning, that our house in Sta Rosa City has been flooded inside. It’s the first time to all my housemate to experience flood in our home since we rent it more than 2 years ago. Were very lucky that some of my housemates still in our house that day. Because some of them are in shifting schedule while other don’t had work on weekends like me. Remember that I left our house and went to Alabang then went home in Lumban then experience stranded for 9 hours. Actually, no one text me that our house were flooded, I just found it today in our work when one of my workmate told me the story. And it also told to her by my housemate. Right now I didn’t saw here in our company my housemate, maybe she’s busy. I will search her later to ask what really happened and for full details. According to story, they lifted up to second floor our refrigerator and all things affected by the flood. Until now I didn’t know the status of our house and housemates. Imagine according to my officemates who work on Saturday until 2pm. The whole city proper is flooded. They walked together in the flood that almost at their hips. “Maigi na lang pala I didn’t decided to comeback to Sta Rosa that time I was stranded at SLEX”. Same situation and better to take risk going to Lumban. I’ll try to update more lately after work. What really happened at our house?

 

I remember the typhoon “Millennio” way back 3 years ago. I was still inside the company, when it hits the whole area. Roads were flooded; trees were down, lots of stranded peoples around. But I’m not included in the stranded thanks to our shuttle service that brought us safe. But unfortunately, our house was flooded, but our things were safe too because of my some housemates. I live in Cabuyao that time. Just experience whole night brown-out and no water but with foods.

 

 

 

Typhoon "Ondoy"

Hi,

I posted this message, because it’s my first time to be stranded yesterday under a tropical storm “Ondoy”. Actually I didn’t expect this kind of experience, though I know there’s a storm since Friday. After going home from work at around 6pm, rain still pouring around. I slept at around 12 in the midnight and its cold “ang sarap matulog”.

I woke up early Saturday at around 8am. I took up my breakfast at my apartment then take a bath, because I’m planning to go at Festival Mall. After packing my bag (kasi every Monday nanggaling p ako s Lumban before going to Work), I left Sta Rosa City at 10am. The rain is so strong and winds blows but I continue to ride a jeep going to Alabang. After I bought my brothers school supplies, immediately I left the Mall. I didn’t check out or hang out inside the mall. Because I know there’s a storm and I need to get to Lumban as fast as possible. And there you go, I was shocked to what I saw. Do you know the under past walkway form Festival to Alabang-Zapote road? The pathway going to South Station. It already been flooded and no one can past through it. “sobrang apaw na talaga ung baha, hindi na nga kita ung lalakaran mo, upos tao na talaga”. Hahaha, I wear our company jacket and it’s a waterproof and in my hand is my php50, 000 worth umbrella (joke lang php.50 lng un, I bought it few months ago). “Natatawa talaga ako sa payong kung yun, kasi sira na talaga ung 2 sides nya, eh ang lakas ng hangin feeling ko masisira at liliparin talaga ung parong ko at ung handle na lang matitira”. And no choice, I must take the alternate route going to Alabang city terminal. So I took I jeep who’s passing along the mall and going to terminal. “Pagbaba ko, todo takbo ako, baha na rin sa kalsada. Nabasa nga ung shoes ko, maigi n lang my dala akong slippers s bag”. I removed my shoes and wear slippers. “Malas pa” there’s no any passenger at the van terminal going to Sta. Cruz. I waited for 30minutes, but no passenger arrived. So I decided I took a bus within terminal too. I was liked a “ basang sisiw” because my umbrella is broke already and my jacket is the only protection. My bag is slightly wet and I’m carrying my shoes in a plastic at the same time carrying the school supplies ( “natatawa talaga ako imagine my dala akong isang ream n bond paper, aside pa sa iba kung binili”). I arrange it inside my bag, so my bag is so heavy. My lower part of my pants is also wet.

I thought I’m safe from disaster inside the bus. Yes, the bus left the terminal at 1pm. And I saw the whole area in Alabang that already been flooded. At that time the SLEX is well fine, no traffic nor flood. And here we go, while reaching the Southwoods area in SLEX. There’s a traffic build up. I listen to music using my phone. It’s already an hour but still no movement. I’m listening to most passengers inside the bus, and they telling us that were stranded in SLEX. The rain and wind continuously hitting us and the area is filling up with floods. Yes!!! There’s a flood in SLEX. Others passengers including the driver and conductor went out to see what’s causing the traffic. And they found out that no vehicles can cross the SLEX both side along Southwoods and Binan exit. I sent messages to most of my friends regarding what happenings to me. Just giving them update to what I experienced yesterday. It’s my first time to experience this kind of disaster inside the bus. At the same time I’m quite afraid but still happy for having this experience. Its sound weird but it’s true. Hours been past, but still stuck in the road. The main reason why were stranded is the SLEX is too flooded and no one can pass through it. At around 4pm, we made to a plan to take the risk to take alternate route. Imagine its traffic and lots of vehicle around us, but we still to mange to move back ward going back to take southwoods exit and we did it. We saw the flooded area in SLEX and its look like a big river with lots of stranded vehicle. Hahaha, we pay to a subdivision just to past at their gates and exit at Carmona. At last were at Carmona and still, heavy traffic along the road going to Binan and take entry to SLEX again. At Mayapa area, I was shocked again because lots of passengers are eager to ride at the bus. Again at Waltermart in Calamba, lots of passenger still waits and according to them, they are waiting for more than hours. “Parang may artistang dumaaan, takbuhan talaga ang mga tao sa bus at sinalubong talaga. Natatawa na nga lang ako sa dami ng nararanasan kung bago sa akin”. The bus is over loaded but no choice to accept the truth. Again we also stranded at Pansol area. The way is flooded and most of the road in Calamba is full of mud. Brownout and I’m so hungry and there is no vendor along the road. We spent more than 2 hours at Pansol until we pass other town. The hi-way along Calaun-Bay area are also flooded but no problems since were in bus compares to cars and jeepneys. I arrived at town of Sta. Cruz at around 10pm and took jeeney going to Lumban. Even at night, I saw the Lumabn River is so high. According to my mama, we didn’t experience flood inside our house, compare to others. My other friends and relatives also experience flooding in their house.

I want to update my blog last night regarding my experience but I’m so tired. Actually this past few years, we experiencing flood inside our house. Maybe because the Caliraya Hyrdo Electric Plant near at our area manages well the flow of water.

This is one my best experience in life that never forgets and still continues to tell to others. “Siguro mas masaya mag kwento kung live, para feel na feel mo”.

It's Lumban Day and Burdang Lumban Festival 2009

 

It’s Lumban Day today. Actually I didn’t know why our town called its special day. Maybe today is the foundation of our town. Hehehe!!! Our town is one of the oldest towns here in the province of Laguna. You may check it at different site from Wikipedia or try at www.laguna.gov.ph and www.lumban.org. You may learn there our town history, events, and other activities you may done at Lumban. Lumban is the “Embroidery Capital of the Philippines” and home of the beautiful man-made Caliraya Lake. Lumban considered the most beautiful town in Laguna. It’s rich in natural resources, picturesque views, and warmth people. Bounded my Laguna de Bay and Sierra Madre, it’s a perfect spot for tourist attraction and development for both tourism and industrial. The San Sebastian Church is one of the oldest churches in the province and aside from Lake Caliraya, our town is famous from having lots of undiscovered water falls. The rice field along the hi-way is a good place to relax. And the road throughout Caliraya is a breath taking view of the Laguna Lake and it near by towns and mountains of Rizal province. The temperature is cold and the wind blows like in some places like Tagaytay. Many things you must discovered and try here at Lumban. Form its craftsmanship to its delicacies and its natural wonders.

 

By the way, this week, were celebrating “Burdang Lumban Festival” from September 22-27, 2009. I didn’t know all the activities happening within this period of festivity. Try to search it on the web. It’s a good festival and showcases the talents and arts of all Lumbeños. According to some sources street dancing and beauty pageant are one of the highlight of the event. So sad, I can’t watch it because I’m busy to my work. Maybe try to watch it on You tube. So, if you had time try to visit Lumban even the whole year around. Try to check my previous post at this blog, most of it featured Lumban.  For any guide and help I can accommodate your needs just try to contact me anytime.

 

 

 

What a long busy day!!!!

Hi,

 

Last Tuesday I’m on leave. I have my interview at Muntinlupa City. Still I’m hoping for this new job. I’m so bored here at my current job. Tough I’m already spending 2 years and 8 months here. For me, much better look for new opportunity than to stay here. I’m glad that my appointment last Tuesday gives me hope to get that job. So I’m waiting until next week for its result. I hope this is it!!!

 

While I’m waiting for my appointment, I met my friends. I accompany him in buying new phone. And we prepare to buy Sony Ericsson C510i “Cybershot” model at Memo Express at Festival Mall. This phone is very hot in terms of design and features. Equipped with 3.2 mega pixel camera with cybershot branding, 2.2” clear screen, smile shutter, accelerometer sensor for all media contents including motion gaming, HSPDA, 7.2mbps connectivity, A2DP Bluetooth, very slim metallic gray design, excellent user interface by Sony and so many to discuss. At its affordable price of 8,690php. I love this phone, and actually I’m a Sony fanatic. All my mobile phone today is currently K750i, T650i, and W910i. All great and best mobile phone in the market in terms of Camera, Music, Design and features and prices compare to other brand. Right now, my next plan to buy is the W995i or C905i. Still working for the budget. Hehehe.

 

After my interview, I went home and because it’s too traffic on my way home, I arrived at around 4pm. Then take a rest and snacks. After all of this, I washed my cloths until 6:30pm. Then cooked for my dinner, watched TV, check the internet before going to bed.

 

What a long busy day!!!!

 

 

 

 

Quite busy daw!!!

 

Well, a little quite busy this past few weeks. So I don’t had chance to post any idea this past days. I’m very upset last Monday, because after declaring last Friday that September 7 is a non-working holiday. It has some exemption like the BPO and Electronics sector. Hahaha, I’m working in an electronics company here at Laguna Technology Park at Biñan, Laguna. Instead I’m resting; I need to wake up earlier that my regular time, because of this holiday, transportation from Lumban to Calamba City is really affected, because it’s not regular day and passengers are only limited at that time. No school or office of course. I woke up at around 4:00am because I need to be at shuttle service in Calamba at around 8:00am. The whole day at office is to annoying and boring. All my friends still enjoying the holiday, while I’m spending my day at work, hehehe. I feel so tired that day, after work, I felt to sleep after watching some GMA telebabad shows. And my day is quite busy again, but tomorrow I’ll just wait again the 6:00pm out!!! Hahaha!!!
