Tropical Storm Devastated Our Region

i was kinda surprised when i woke up yesterday morning and my parents told me that places near the river were flooded in our city

i'm just glad we weren't flooded...

but then i learned that many people died of the flood... some people we know also climbed up to their rooftops

and then i learned that the phenomenon was also experienced in other parts of the country, especially Northern Mindanao...

reports say that around 500+ people died of the disaster

the flash flood caught them off guard... the water started to rise rapidly at midnight

i have relatives who were affected by the flood, good thing the water didn't go too high

lots of people's houses are destroyed now, many people lost most of their belongings; and many people are in evacuation centers, we are going to donate some clothes and other needs to the flood victims

please offer them your sincere prayers, especially this Christmas season. it's sad to think that they're probably going to spend their Christmas this year without a home. ;_;
