Good for you. In our country it's not over yet we are still expected to experience at least a couple more typhoons before the year end, but thankfully the most latest one just passed and the weather is back to normal for now.

you from phillipines, right? i wonder what a typhoon would be acting like? you get to see all those huge water walls in tv and you go, waoh!, how'd i be part of this? i'd just drown and be another body under the ocean. i wonder how you asians survive with all those typhoons and hurricanes. i think water is really one big problem over there.

Yes I am. On average we get like 20 typhoons yearly. But most of them are not so bad especially if you are on the safe and flood-free areas. But it's becoming worse these days. Especially in the city. There are a lot of areas that never got flooded before that can now get submerged one to two floors deep. It's scary to live in an area like that and it's amazing how we can all durvive living and getting used to such conditions. I myself have been lucky never to experience flood higher than knee-deep. If I do, like you I think I'll just find myself one of the bodies submerged water.

you're real funny, silentwill. never pray that you die drowning. knee-deep floods, i understand and we do experience them often. they've been floods that can lift houses and cars mile and miles. nice weekend.
