Typhoon Egay

Deda woke me up early this morning to get my ass moving to go to work. Thanks to her I arrived early in the office. It was raining on my way to work but I didn't know there is a typhoon until my boss told me so.
After a while, Joy called me up and told me that their area is in flood...for the first time! Then I took a peek at the window and saw this:
This is Ayala Avenue at around 10:15am. My "sunshiney" boss told me I can leave if I want to because the rain is not going down but I'd rather stay. Hmmm...I'm craving for all kinds of food right now I'm going crazy haha - the effect of typhoon on me!

Typhoon, flood and a lazy day at home...

On my way home last night, our driver told me that there is a typhoon. I really had no clue. There was a little traffic but it was fine. I'd choose traffic than soaking my feet in dirty waters from the flood. But the inevitable happened. We got home in no time and there was a lot of water in the gate already. Thanks to Bexie for lending me her Havaianas. I promise to keep one pair in the office for emergencies like this.

When I woke up this morning, I looked out the window and there was flood everywhere! There is no way I am going to hurl myself into the floods. Besides, there was nothing that important for me to do in the office so I didn't go to work. I started sending messages to friends and officemates and then I went back to sleep.


I woke up just before lunchtime. Today's my cousin Jaja's birthday so we had the usual pancit, fried chicken, lechon kawali and 3 kinds of cake given by her friends. I did nothing all day but eat, read and stay online. When the rain started pouring again late in the afternoon, I wanted to sleep but I was so tempted to have coffee and so I did and curled up in bed again while reading a book. Yes D, I AM reading. Hahaha.
