paramdam lang....

at last, i have this computer for myself..... at least for now, lols. The boys are out today to take their friend ( from Malaysia) to lunch at siguro mamayang gabi na sila uuwi, dalhin daw nila sa filipino restaurant itong kaibigan na `to at ipapasyal din. It`s his first time in pinas and want to see what we have here. Of course ang pinaka-una niyang nakita ay ang pagiging hospitable nating mga pinoy. We just want to intertain, give and share our time and all just so he will be comfortable with us. I realized its not even an effort to do so because we love these people from Malaysia.
Dave and charis just came back from that place (malaysia) about 3 days ago. With them are inspiring reports about what God has done in their youth retreat there. It was such a success spiritually...Praise God. Kahit wala silang boses pareho, sama-sama na - pagod, kulang sa tulog and all, but everything is worth it, mission accomplished!!

dave is going back in two weeks time to singapore to attend another conference, charis, on the other hand have a lot of catching up to do in his lessons and exams in bible school...

This week as you know, another typhoon hit pinas. we were waiting for it to hit Manila yesterday morning......classes and work in the city were all suspended as the weather bureau said it is stronger than the melenyo. Said the eye of the typhoon is sure coming straight the path to Manila. Naghanda kami..... namili ng stock na pagkain at maraming kandila....at least nakahanda na pagdating ng bagyo!! But during the night, amazingly it changed direction, lumihis, at hindi na dumaan ng Manila. We thanked the Lord but sadly other areas like the bicol region especially albay were totally devastated... maraming bahay ang nailibing kasama ang mga taong nakatira sa flash mud flood na galing sa bulkan..... talagang nakakaawa. Ang dami na namang namatay... Sunod sunod na yata ang mga catastrophe na nangyayari sa bansang ito?

Maliban sa nagdaang bagyo, life here is normal. Only when you walk out the streets one could not deny that christmas is in the air. Could feel it everywhere. Kapag nagpadala ka pa, malulungkot ka lalo na kapag naiisip mo na wala ka na namang kapera-pera.. Nagkalat ang mga pwedeng bibilhin. Kung impulsive buyer ka, aandar yan sa ganitong klaseng panahon, hehehe!!. In my part, i`m not getting any younger or richer either. Kung hindi lang dahil sa Panginoon and the church, i could say that life is just so achingly boring....

see you guys around... *******GRIN****** paramdam lang po. hihihihi!!!
