The last time I saw a storm that strong (Rosing, 1995), I was a freshie in UP. And believe me, UP never looked more bald afterwards. I bet it looks just as bad now.
I was on the road that thursday. Given the number of flying sheet metal, branches, electric cables, motorcycles (true), and shards from broken signages that flew past my service, I'm amazed I'm still alive. When you add the fact that our vehicle was being pushed to the side by the winds (Literally), I can only thank God I'm still breathing.
You know what they say, though: Mahirap mamatay ang masamang damo.
well we have our own stories to tell and here's mine.
I was still at home when Milenyo struck its full thrust. I was getting ready for a wedding (well, our group in our village were getting ready that time). When it was our time to go, we've decided to move it a few hours later. Floods and Milenyo was still in its full glory. Eventually the lights went out and @ around three pm we've managed to push through.
Despite the colorful flood, we've managed to swam pass by it with our automobiles. But alas, two car's pointer was pointing in the E. So, we tried to look for gas stations. Almost all gas stations' are closed because they have no power. We were lucky we were able to spot an open gas station in the Fort, after five or six gas stations.
Still no power, we've tried almost all the roads that are possible to our destination. Coming from Cainta, we've traveled through Taguig, Makati, Baclaran, and finally Roxas Blvd. Did I say that we could see establishments without power?
How about the Kris' Kissa billboard along Libis bowing? Or that lucky bus in the Magallanes flyover? We've almost seen em all.
And eventually we've reached our destination. A candlelight wedding and an aircon-less reception in Trader's hotel. As Ms. Hilton would say "That's hot!".
Don't forget my blooper, falling off the wedding couple's platform is a moment that you really would want to see. And I was the host that time.
How about going home to Cainta? Well, it was black. Black. Black. Thank God there aren't any African-american's in Manila or else I would be charged with hit and run.
And when we got home? Flood.

Man...that was sure a bad day for a wedding. But good for the vows. The weather can't stop them from getting married. Astig!
I was ready to go to work then. bathed and all dressed up... Then the news reported that it was already signal no. 3 in metro manila and that the storm is expected to come around noon. So i decided to stay home.
The sampaloc tree outside my window was fighting the wind and rain. Like watching a huge Ent from the LOTR movie. I was cheering "kaya mo yan Tree!!!"
Got power back saturday around 6pm. Just in time to watch the last half of the 2nd UST-Ateneo game. UST won!!!
Weird thing is that in the whole apartment building, some apartment units have electricity, some don't. I'm just one of those blessed. Everything was back to normal sunday evening.
I hope that doesn't happen again and thank God it was only or a day.

Nasa Alabang Muntinlupa ako during the storm. Hindi pa naman tumataas ang tubig. The storm came around 10:00 am and the power supply shut down, making my design half way finish. Okay lang sabi ko, at leat mapapaaga ang uwi. When I look ut the window, rooves were flying around, billboard are torn apart. Around 12:00 mahina na ang ulan. Chance na makauwin.
Sa SLEX, traffic! It was horrible. Siksikan kami sa jeep for about three hours. Ang mahirap baha sa may tapat ng Alaska factory. Ang pwede lang dumaan ay mga shuttle bus, at may tumitirik pa. So we have to use the National Road. Unfortunately, lubog na pala ang San Pedro. At hindi lang lubog, as in to the max. I saw a Honda Civic, bubong na lang. We wait for an hour baka bumaba. Kaso lalong tumaas. So we have to make another route, when suddenly the jeep broke down. We have to take another jeep.
Punta kami "Pacita Complex". Nagtanong tanong kami kung kaya ng jeep dumaan. Then nakita namin yung mga naglalakad, putikan ang dibdib. I almost freaked out kasi ibig sabihin hanggang dibdib ang baha. okay, kalmado pa rin ako. inisip ko makakauwi pa rin ako. around six na yun. jollibee kasi pumayag yung management na doon muna kami. pero try na rin naming makauwi.lumusong ako sa baha na hanggang bewang... GRABEEE!!! liptospirosis, typhoid, cholera... bahala na!!! ng makarating kami sa Binan, nagharang na kami ng mga sasakyan. 10 pm na nun. And everyone is getting crazy. Pinerahan talagi kami ng mga PUJ na yan kainis. then out of nowhere may shuttle bus na dumaan. grabe hinarang na namin. as in ang daming humarang!!! ayun ang ride to home. nakauwi ako ng 11:00 pm
sa totoo lang hindi naman malakas ang bagsak ng bagyo sa Laguna pero sobrang nakapinsala siya. as in baha... sobra... patunay lang na walang kwenta ang drainaige system ng government. hayyy...
pero thak GOD buhay pa rin tayo kasi ang daming cassualties.
You would not have gotten your cash anyway last friday, holiday or not. Banks were on systemwide shutdown because of the power outage.
Going back to my kwento, when the service picked me up, we drove to Sucat road. I watched in horror as the signage of the local McDonalds shattered in front of our eyes. Cool! I picked up a shard as a keepsake.
I actually saw a motorcycle flying in C5. Freaky.
In SM Bicutan, the steel screen that covers the entrances was pushed inwards by the wind.
And I have never seen so many toppled billboards in my life.
ako rin may mga experience din sa bagyo na yan. pero kulang kasi sa oras. kwento ko sa next log in ko.
so ang masasabi ko lang sa ngayon eh tinginingining na Milenyo yan! ilang araw walang kuryente. at higit sa lahat eh ang hirap hirap ng signal ng Smart!!! grrr.... at hindi ako makapag-charge ng celphone. hanggang ngayon eh wala pa rin signal ang Smart sa amin. kaya pupunta pa ako sa kanto namin. hahanap ng mauupuan at dun magti-text.

interesting story: Friday, nasa intramuros ako. Pagkatapos nung bagyo at pagkatapos kong makitang lumipad yung bubongan ng kaibigan ko, nagpasya kaming mag-ikot-ikot. Nung malapit na kami, nakita namin yung signages ng sm na may 3 day sale sila. Nagtatawanan pa kami na sino kaya pupunta sa sale bumabagyo na nga. Lo and behold, pagdating namin sa bungad ng sm manila, andaming tao. Kahit na walang aircon, napakainit, minimal lighting, andami pa ring tao. Kahit dumaan na yung delubyo sa labas, basta sale
tsaka lahat ng makita naming billboard ng boy bawang dun sa may maynila bumagsak. galit yung bagyo sa boy bawang.
Tapos nagtext yung kapatid ko na 6 am pa may ilaw samin. kuso.
grabehhh...when classes resumed last monday, nagulat ako sa itsura ng UP. i've never seen so many uprooted, toppled trees in my life. the poor trees...
dahil sa sobrang boredom, umakyat kami nila mama ng baguio para magpalamig.yun. ang saya. paguwi namin, wala pa rin kaming kuryente. sigh. buti na lang bumalik na nung sunday.
sana hindi kasing grabe nu milenyo si nene. kawawa naman yung mga taong sobrang naapektuhan ng bagyo, they wouldn't get a chance to fully recover...

I didn;t know there was a storm coming so i was a bit happy it was really windy that day. Pero nung nawalan na ng kuryente from Thursday hanggang Monday? Nabwisit ako nun. Okay lang sana kaso we have a 6 month old baby in the house. I had to go to my my former office para lang makicharge ng phone!
