The day that I almost woke up without a home...

January 27th around 9:00 PM

Ginising ako ng kapatid ko, she was screaming...

i was half awake, she was telling me about something that included the words water, electricity, sparks and smoke in it...

Adrenaline rushed... Jumped out of bed, turned off the main power line and hurriedly went to our kitchen..

I could smell something burning, then there sa may corner, i see the thing sparking, little flames coming out of it..

hurriedly got a couple of pliers, hammer and electrical tape...

after making sure that there is no more sparks. I asked my sister again what happened..

Our helper, Mae, was cleaning the kitchen with a wet sponge and bucket of water. I dont know what really happened but I think she somehow spilled water on an outlet where our oven was plugged in..

I did appreciate Mae for immediately telling my sister about the situation pero, as I was telling my mom and dad (in Cebu) what happened, I learned na matagal na din pala sya sinasabihan ni mama na be careful around electricity.

She didn't hear a mouthful from me.. pero she should be ready once our parents arrive...

so aun, im here, awake at 12:44 a.m. standing up every now and then to check some outlets just to make sure na walang ibang na short circuit...

I miss college...

One of the best things that happened to my life...

Missed my blockmates..
missed the lessons..

missed the times that we hanged out together..
