Hi Everyone!!!
First of all Happy Birthday Lulu!!! Have a good one .
Thanks for all the thoughtfulness for me and my family. I was actually more worried for my mom and dad back home in our little town. It is situated near the coast line connected to the Pacific. They called last night to let us know they're alright and that the coast guard monitor the activities of the ocean all night and it was quiet and calm. Thank God for that. The news reported that the northern part of the Philippines suffered a few waves but only around 30 to 60 cm. Out here in Manila we're all dry and suffering from heat again. We're all spared again!!!
Warning: Rant coming up...
I'm having problems with my internet again. For the past 3 weeks it has been an on again and off again with the service. It is so frustrating to be home every night, specially during the weekends with no connection and calling their customers service every other day . Just this morning we spend 2 hours on the phone talking to their agents, officer of the day and then to their supervisor (who is so rude, he hang up on us twice). Finally, fed up my SIL threatened to cut the connection if they couldn't fix it this weekend. I think they took our warning seriously, they sent their technician to look at the problem and he put on a temporary solution until their line men could look at it seriously tomorrow. I hope they can fix it permanently tomorrow. We're paying almost $20 a month for that service. Whew...that felt good!! Rant over...
Tracy - Almost halfway through WfE. I just finished the part where they got Rosie the elephant. One thing is for sure though it ain't young adult fiction . I was laughing a lot with Jacob's, should I say "misfortune" with the lovely Ms. Barbara and her friend Nell. Poor Jacob. I figured it won't be part of the movie but it's still fun to imagine how Rob will act in out.
Dawn - Happy birthday to your daughter!!! How old is she???
Tonise - Hi there !
Christina - Thank you for the thoughts!! We are so very thankful that we were always spared from this tragedies. First in 2006 by the Java Indonesia tsunami and now by the Japan tsunami. God is good to us.
JennJenn - It is such a tragedy. We were watching the clips on youtube last night and it was so sad. It reminds us of typhoon Ondoy last year that hit Manila only 10 times much worst.
AnneMarie - Thanks girl!! What have you been up to this past couple of week?
Tammy - Thanks for the lovely !!!
Marielle - Yap, thanks for the thoughts! Our little country is still standing and thriving. I'm sorry to hear about your mom's car. I hope you it gets sorted out soon.
Chrissy - Enjoy spring break, you deserve it.
Caryn - Thanks for thinking about me and my family when you hear the news. Good luck with your meeting.
Susie - Yap couldn't ask for a better boss. We're still dry here . I think it reaches as far as Hawaii and some parts of the US. How did the internet lesson with your mom goes???
Tomorrow I'm going shopping with my cousins. It should be fun and after 2 weeks of being coop up at my room I'm ready and dying to go out and do something fun for a change.
Hope everyone have a great weekend. Stay safe and see you next time.
Later.
