August 7, 2012. Just a day before we move in to our own home in Sta. Maria, Bulacan, we were submerged in flood waters again (yeah, remember Ondoy and other typhoons). This time, this is just a Habagat. We were about to purchase a new bed for our new home but since it was raining non stop for hours, around 7AM, flood water started rising. The water was already outside our house when hubby and I went out to my mom's house. We had to be fast because flood water was rising up really fast too.
We stayed inside MJ which was parked inside Valenzuela Memorial Park. Thank God for MJ once again who keeps saving us from calamities like this. When we checked a day after (yes it took 24 hours before the water subsided), the water reached waist level inside our house. It drained all our stuff, clothes, etc. We had power outage for 4 days too. We spent August 8 and 9 in mom's house but we had to move to our own house already so we decided to move in at August 10. I've never felt relieved.
I do hope we don't go through the same thing. I hope that 3 years of flood experience is already enough and that we can move on with our lives. Anyway, here are some of the pictures of what happened that day.
