As the Monsoon Rains poured down...

It was a Tuesday, August 7, 2012, when we heard that MAPE class was canceled due to the never-ending, gloomy rainfall. We called our neighbors from 8th avenue to see if they were ok, and they told us that their street was already flooded and they were in Galleria. It was then that the final decision was made: we had to go.
Our escape was to my aunt's place. We spent the day watching movie after movie. We watched Staying Alive, with a very, very young John Travolta; part of Friday Night Fever, still Travolta; the first bit of A Walk In the Clouds; Ghostbusters, which was HILARIOUS; Twilight Zone, which I still don't get; and Extremely Loud, Incredibly Close, which was about the cutest thing I ever watched. We took showers (no heater, haha), and went to bed. I woke up sometime early and felt the pinpoints of cat paws walking over my leg. As usual I couldn't go back to sleep. I shifted around a bit, an then wiggled my toes absentmindedly. To my surprise, a cat batted my feet. I looked down and saw my aunt and uncle's Siamese cat, Nadia, looking intently at my covered feet from the bottom of the bed. I played with her some, and then picked her up and put her on my lap. I spent the rest of the time coddling her.
The next day, I and my dad went with my mom to the Fort, and my sister went to help with the relief operations in UAnP. I would be helping out in Victory Fort's operations.
In the afternoon, we called our landlady, and she said that the street was flooding waist-deep, and had entered her first floor. Our house is on a second floor, so we weren't that worried for it. But we couldn't go home. So we spent the night at our friends house. I and their youngest boy have been best friends since birth, so we were just foine. We played Call of Duty Zombie Mode, and I fell in love with an online dude who's account name was RED-AssAssiN_7. He was always protecting me, and he always revived me, whereas he never revived Daniel until it was almost too late. So we played, and played, and kept stoic faces all throughout. UNTIL we saw the cockroach. It was innocently walking, and I and Daniel jumped up like maniacs and stepped away from it quickly. Dane grabbed the cover of Risk and BAM covered it. Thus accomplished, we went back to playing. When we were bored of playing, we would release the cockroach and catch it again with the Cluedo cover. I was horrible at catching, and we had mighty fun that night. We slept at 12-1.
The next day we both helped out at Victory. And that's what I did as the rain fell down. I love the Philippines. :D

Richard Armitage

Richard Armitage rocks my world. XD He's a minor actor who usually has small parts. But finally, the day his fans are all waiting for, he will act in The Hobbit as Thorin Oakenshield, the dwarf leader! Thorin's role calls for dignity and poise, and I'm sure that Armitage will pull it off awesomely. This blog is to Richard Armitage, and to his upcoming fame. ;D

Rants

One thing I hate is inconsiderate people. People who don't care if their actions affect other people. People like that are A-N-N-O-Y-I-N-G. Annoying. The SNAP. Thinking about it makes me want to burst into tears. I also hate bursting into tears. That's why I keep it all in. If I try to say it, I'll most likely cry. Ugh. Annoying life.

Confusedly Simple

Government, the Force, Policemen, and all ranks of power... Sometimes I just want to tell then straight out that what they're doing sucks and that it could be better. It's so easy to fix anything with the government, and concerning a country. So why don't they? People are getting complacent, that's why. Sometimes you just can't wait for someone to take responsibility. Take a look at yourself and realize that you've got the hands to do it! You've got the feet to go! What this world needs are godly people who can hammer self-discipline into the people. What's the harm in BELIEVING? What does it matter if you're rich or not? No matter what, WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE SOMEDAY. So tell me, where would rather go when you die? Where do you want the rest of humankind to go when they die? There are only two choices: Heaven and Hell. So take your pick. For yourself. For the world.

Drum Tao

Omy gulay, Drum Tao was awesome! We watched it in Resorts world for around 800 because we had a student discount. Otherwise it would be around 1000 pesos. We sat at the very back, but we could still see the stage very clearly. The stringed instruments, the flutes, and the DRUMS... they all blended in a throb of awesome music. In the middle if the show, right after the intermission, a Japanese woman came up to us back-seaters and asked us to accompany her to the front rows, which cost 4,500. I and my sister went eagerly enough. We could now differentiate the faces of the drummers. I made this man named Shingo Kawahara my favorite, and Esther hung on to this young really Japanese-looking guy named Junichi Haraguchi. They're actually quite cute names. :3

Captain America Rocks

Did I ever tell you about Ajae? We had the hugest debate about who was better, Iron Man or Captain America. I honestly didn't pick a favorite (even though I was partial to Chris Evans), but when my other friend Glou was defending Captain America from Ajae, I was drawn into the fight. We spent so much time on that debate, staying up until 12 just bashing each other's hero. It was rather refreshing, really. I hadn't a good debate for ever so long. We both got tired of relentlessly refusing to acknowledge one hero as better than the other, so for now the debate is put off. For now. ;)

Portable Blogging

Yay, I can do Blogger on the iTouch! Actually, I do a lot of stuff on this iTouch, especially Twitter. Honestly, it's like texting without a phone. And besides, you can get a direct stream of info from your favorite band/actor etc. Oh, sorry, I know this blog was supposed to be about portable blogging. But Twitter drew me away. Anyway, just to advertise, well, myself, follow me: @CaptRebelSuson. XD
