God Answered Prayer

Always i know but not as evident today.  Currently, the PHilippines is experiencing El Nino and we have high temperatures even before the summer time was officially announced.  The riverbeds almost runs dry and even the water supply for the electric power was affected.  Almost all over in Mindanao experience daily power interruptions from the minimum of 3 hours to up.  So this morning, as what they told me, they have prayed for rain.

And guess what?! Early this afternoon the rain fell!  It was real rain.  Nobody was prepared for the rain so many got wet.  It was still raining when the office hours finished.

It rained for several hours and when i went out to the hospital lobby to wait for some friends, this is how the sky looks.

The thick fluffy clouds were really dark that i thought it would rain more. Good thing the rain totally stopped when we left the hospital compound for Calda.

Pizza pics will be in the next post. :)

Back from a Weekend Trip

Just a short note to say am back from the trip to Mountain View College.  The trip was for my daughter as she was there for the whole week yet it also refreshes me of my college days memories.  It’s a weekend trip.  We left Iligan Friday morning and arrived just awhile ago.  So i missed the time checking out these promotional products for the Christmas holidays. I thought that mommy duty must come first before anything else.

There were only 22 schools that attended so the campsite was not filled with people.  There was not even a trace of campers or visitors in some common spots.    Mountain View College is situated in up the hills of Nebo in Valencia City, Bukidnon.  It’s around 30-40 minutes travel up the rough roads towards the top hills.

My last visit there was two years ago so am happy to be able to visit this weekend.  Luckily, i met one of my dormitory roommates.  She married her college sweetheart so we really had fun recalling our many college happenings.  We also met one of our highschool schoolmate and oh my we laugh just like there was no tomorrow.  Schooling years were so much fun in spite of the challenge of studying hard.

This is my first time to visit MVC as a parent and doing duty as a parent. It was a nice feeling yet it’s reminding me and my friends that we are not getting younger anymore.
