metro manila is under a state of calamity. no-brainer.  80 percent of metro manila is submerged in our own filth. pasig-cainta area —where we are—is one of the worst-hit places in the metro. Other Half and i are lucky that the floodwaters didn’t enter the house; it only reached the garage and thankfully the cars weren’t damaged or anything.

our neighbors aren’t that lucky. this was taken this morning.

and some most parts of pasig and cainta are still submerged under water. water level in some subdivisions in our area is already up to the roofs. these floodwaters don’t have anywhere to go as all 3 rivers (pasig, marikina and the floodway) here are already overflowing.
