Flood Waters in Botolan

The news about flooding in a town near where my parents live did not seem real to me as I only see what happened on TV. I saw photos too taken by my brother.

I do not know who live in those homes that have been wrecked by running waters. If only they have Glendale apartments to go to, then I think they could feel safe from the raging waters.

Botolan, Zambales

But as it is, the water spared no one, big grand homes, small shacks and even schools. How vulnerable we all are from natural calamities.

If only… they dredged those silt and lahar deposits a long time ago? Perhaps this would not have been as destructive as what happened, but even that thought is water under the bridge now 🙁

Nestle Fitnesse 14 Days to Show Off Your Shape

Whenever we go to our favorite supermarket’s aisle where the cereals are being sold, we always get two boxes: one big box of cereals for the kids and a box of Nestle Fitnesse cereals for me. I love it that I can have cereals that feel light, and yummy enough to munch on by itself.

Anyway, last Saturday, my friends (who are also blogging moms) and I met for a special occasion. We talked about Nestle Fitnesse 14 Days to Show Off Your Shape Contest. Based on the contest mechanics, we see that we have a chance to join this contest ourselves, haha!

Hmmm… should we join this contest and get the chance to wear fashionable and expensive clothes with labels that read Hermes, Rhett Eala, Michi Calica, Religioso, Kate Torralba, Jun Escario, Chanel or 7 for All Mankind?
