There's a lake in front of my school!

I would only call what is in front of DLSU earlier in the rains, a lake. If you want a sea of floods got to UST.

Anyway, back to my story. ROTC was not canceled today so I still went to school. Let's just say that Ondoy had other plans for the students that day.

Usually, my parents would fetch me once the ROTC was over. But floods from different parts of Metro Manila hindered that act. Even inside DLSU, water came striding in. The garden and the amphitheater was under water. The South Gate was flooded up until ankle high I would estimate.

Since my parents couldn't get near to Taft, I decided to take the MRT/LRT to Makati and catch a Shuttle Service to BF. Only problem is when I got there. They ceased to be in business due to the fact that all Express Ways weren't that express at all. All roads were in a stand still.

My only other option was to walk the streets (well Walkways) of Makati City and go to my mom's office and they will find a way to fetch me from there.

Oh, I forgot to mention. Being the dunder head that I am. I didn't have any umbrella or jacket with a hood whatsoever. It was my TYPE C uniform and my bag. Yup, they were drenched of course after my little adventure in the rain and finally reaching Ayala Tower.

I reached my mom's office and my mom told the people there to buy me food and that I could use her computer. An hour later, my mom and dad arrived at Makati.

On our way home, no other option but take the SkyWay. I've never seen people walking on the Skyway before but today it was an expressway/ walkway. I mean those who broke their umbrellas left it there on the road and they were really walking. From above I could see that some cars in the SLEX were abandoned, no drivers and that again people were walking.

Man, today when I got out of bed, I just dreaded going to school. But now I dreaded even just waking up and getting dressed. I wasn't really tired from all my adventures today. I mean, I got by on my own in the rainy streets of Makati City, without an umbrella I might add.

And if I didn't take that little wet adventure of mine, I might be stranded in DLSU with other students.

Oh shout outs to people who are stuck in their school, special mention to Mitchelle Navera! Good luck sa pagtulog mo sa St. Paul! Char sana makarating ka na sa bahay niyo!

Well that was my day, rainy and wet but at least I'm home! And I've heard mass in Resurrection.
