I think a lot of us heard about typhoon ondoy that devastated a lot of cities in Manila. Last count, we lost 250 lives and lots of homes. I have 2 sisters that lives in Pasig near Ortigas which i heard was one of the areas affected. One lives in Valle Verde and the other one lives nearby, in kapitolyo, and didn't hear anything from both of them. I tried calling them but there was nothing at all on the other side so i figured there was no electricity any where so maybe that's why i can't call them. I sent them e-mails and that didn't help either, maybe because no electricity?????????????? So i sent them a text message hoping that at least they have a phone working, and still nothing. I'm beginning to worry about them and wondering how i can reach them. I'll try calling other sisters, maybe they heard from them somehow. I was scheduled to go home Sept 13th to 30th but cancelled it because my husband was so busy at work that he can't take care of the kids while i'm away. Now i think it was meant to be or i'll be stranded there and won't be able to make it for ourtrip to Vegas and California. We're leaving tonight but i'll keep trying to find out if they're ok.
