Whoa, it’s exactly one month today since my last post.  So what really happened to me and BlogDeManila.com?

First, I had a problem with my webhost.

Yes, you’ve read it right.  I have other 6 other blogs/websites that I’m managing and, unfortunately, only BlogDeManila (BDM) was affected. The good news is, it’s already up and running!

Second, I survived Storm Ondoy!

I won’t bore you the details about it but I  did some rescuing on my mom-in-laws’ house, who was home alone when the storm hit. Unfortunately while doing the rescue mission, I accidentally stepped on a sharp object while crossing a raging water.  In just few hours, my right foot swelled that made me nervous. Since I can’t walk properly, my brother in-law rescued me from their house at 4AM and brought me to the hospital for the anti-tetanus shot.

By the way, my brother-in-law  lost PhP .5M  worth of equipments due to this flood. He was not home when it happened and most of his photography and office equipments submerged into the muddy water.

Third, I survived Storm Pepeng!

Kennon Road Entry - Storm Pepeng

We went to Baguio City two days before Storm Pepeng hits the Northern part of the Philippines. We were aware that a storm is coming but we don’t have any idea that it will stay for a week and will bring a catastrophic damages in the area. The weather forecast at that time was, the storm will just past hurriedly because of it’s speed. We were really surprised that it stayed and brought down all the water of Pacific ocean continuously for seven days!

After surviving all the virtual and real life drama, I’m proud to report that BlogDeManila is alive, kicking and ready to rock the Blogosphere again!
