I'm blessed to be living in an above-sea level subdivision. When it comes to typhoons, our biggest threat are strong gust of winds and not heavy rains. And since our house is built on an adobe rock, we're assured that we have a good strong foundation.

Maring has suspended two-days worth of classes and made the whole province of Laguna declare state of calamity. 

My grandparents are currently living with us now after evacuating from their house which was submerged in waist-high flood. Last time that happened was during the infamous Ondoy. And how do I know that Maring is worse than that storm? My grandparents were able to return back home the next day after Ondoy, but now... I'm not even sure they could return next week. 

Keep safe my lovelies. And #PrayForThePhilippines
