Better Paranoid Than Sorry

Cagayan de Oro has really learned the value of heeding a warning due to a bitter memory Tropical Storm Sendong left last year that claimed over 1000 lives.
Now that Signal #3 for Super Typhoon Pablo is up and even when it hardly ever rained (it has been just drizzling for about 3 hours), a lot chose to evacuate.  For those who couldn't afford staying in a hotel, 
there are covered courts that are offered by the local government.  
One of the designated evacuation centers is the covered court of 
Barangay Macasandig, where my folks live.
I took it upon myself to have photos of such so that my friends 
working/living afar(abroad) would know 
how things are going.
These are the photos I took 
at Barangay Macasandig, 10pm, Dec 3, 2012

I remember that I was totally against it as I was studying a totally unrelated course but Daddy Gabby was relentless.   He'd be zoning countless hours to lecture and quiz me and my friends RJ, B

Brokenhearted On February 2013 :'(

I didn't really plan on writing a blog at this time of the day (it's past 1AM as of this writing), especially that I'm down with flu.  But since I slept late in the afternoon I can't make myself sleep early for the night. I was just planning to jot down my passwords in my secret notebook (it's not so secret now, is it?) but my hands are shaking way too much.  The effect of Salbutamol in my system can be far worse when the dosage is not monitored closely.  Believe me, I don't give a rat's arse with my hands trembling as if I'm nervous of something but then I can't get anything jotted down without affecting my handwriting.  I tell you, it is very difficult to write in such poor state. Oh well, I owe you my readers an update. I wonder how many of you celebrated Chinese New Year?  I'm told that my Mom's side has some Chinese descent but I can't confirm that (and that's way beside my point).  The Chinese culture was showcased around
