A 'Frank' Experience

800 plus in total and only 57 found so far. That's the numbers following the tragic capsizing of the Princess of The Stars ferry off the coast of Romblon after Typhoon Frank whiplashed its way across the P.I. Some of you guys may have already known but for those who aren't familiar with weather patterns in the Phils, this ain't nothing yet.

The rain poured for nearly 24 hours from Saturday evening and I only saw the sun clearly on Monday morning! Talk about a wet dream! I still consider myself very much foreign and still quite F.O.B. but this tops everything I've come across so far. It's not the worse thing that could happen but it's a taste of what may come... or not (I hope).

I heard there was a frat fight this morning in U.P. Dammit! Missed the show. According to my sources (My aunt), it was bloody and the cops nabbed 4 students. Can anyone say flying glass bottles? Seems like it's the perfect indication that the school year has officially started but who knows for sure what instigated the clash. I hope there's something left for me to shoot tomorrow but I don't think this will be the last I hear of it.

Hmm... what else is there. Not much right now. Just procrastinating a one-pager on reading habits and views on social considerations regarding the former. I'm not too keen cos it's more of a localised topic but I'll put in my two sens worth for the points. Anyone check out Hulk 2 yet? I think I'm a week behind now... dammit!

Asta!
