Typhoon ONDOY had its land fall at around 10 am Sept.26 2009 it came with the warning from the news, but not knowing the massive effect of this typhoon, my brother & I was prepared for this, but what the hell!!! yes prepared we were (mga taong bundok & proud of it), but with the fast pace of this typhoon running like a marathon, the water level got high in just minutes, the marikina flood control was releasing water! my brother & I acted fast, due to the rising of water we had to secure our car on the garage, we lifted the car with some spare tire because we thought that it was enough, because last 1999 the water level did not even dared to reach the garage floor, my brother & I was startled to see that now it was getting higher & higher whaaaattttt!!!!!!!????The F!!!k, there was nothing we could do, so we rush into our grandmothers house, to help them, after that, back to our house to secure the things that can still be saved on our 1st floor, it was raining really hard and the water was successfully reaching its goal, my parents was not home they were stranded at the coastal road, I contacted my parents to tell them that were ok, the cellphone signal of smart are still present thank GOD! but the signal from globe was nowhere to be found, the PLDT lines was still working, the water lines & the electricity was shut because of this typhoon, it was almost getting dark, the only way to reach my Lola's house is swimming for it, so my brother & I had to swim the brownish flood, we had to do it because we had no contact & we must check if everything is just ok after that we went back home, the water level doesn't even want to stop on rising, we prayed for it to stop but the prayer was unanswered.
September 27, 2009 my daughter Nina’s 7th birthday, we cancelled the reservation for her birthday.
back to the problem, it was now the 27th the water level was decreasing but it was only a little amount of water :( my brother & I decided to swim for it. Going to my Lola's house to check on them, thank god everything is ok, after this I told my brother that we should head out for Magsaysay because our parents contacted us they were already in the church of St.lucia in Magsaysay it was a 3km swim and walk for my brother & I because we wanted to let our parents know that we were just fine & we also need supplies for the house, we bought cooked rice and brought back home drinking water, arriving at the house we prepared for lunch, we waited for the day as it passes by, early in the morning I heard banging on our door, my brother opened the door to see my father came home, the water level was a levelled down, few hours later my father told me to get our Strada at the church where my mother was waiting, so I head on to get the vehicle, as I was heading over at Magsaysay wreck cars and devastated homes was seen along the way, for sure the message of this storm was clear enough, cutting of the trees (whoever is that fu***ng official that neglected the warning in cutting of our trees) the supposed 5,000 litres of water that can be consume by the trees went down on us, now another storm is coming, I hope that all of us can survive this upcoming storm again.
