In the Eye ( Mouth ?) of Ondoy

The real story behind Ondoy Started in Sorsogon City. Lain gud totoo ina na mga intra tropical convergence zone sa sabi san Pag-Asa. Tropical depression daw? Lain talaga. Nagbatog ina kay nagkrarantahan an mga Batch'83 sa Casa Dominga, before going to Manila. lain man sa nagsusupon kita tabi, constructive cristicism baga an tawag sadi. Kama raot daw ( daw ha?, Please do not quote me) san bosses, nakabilog sin bagyo.

Sorsogon-based OLPS "83 superstars Dennis Donor, Ferdz Marbella and Raul Jeresano, plan trip to manila at Casa Dominga

San turn na ngani ni Ah-oh, The Rey Valera of Batch'83, pati ritratista nagtarakig. Kitaa kay lain malinaw an picture.

Poor picture has more to do with Camera Shake than the quality of the voice of the Singer. Ah oh with his most loyal fan, AA Apostol.

Ay sus, pag abot sa Manila Karantahan ulit. naurit na baga an Mahal na Diyos...

Toasting to the good times past, present and future, Ferdz, Donnie Boy and Ronel Magdamit

Warning daw, pinauranan sin grabe hopefully madara. Wara lamang kamatian san grupo. Nothing short of a flood of Noah's proportion would have deterred these future singing superstars from practicing their craft.

The initial salvo of rains had the cars outside the hotel doing their best imitation of mini submarines

Lain pa man baga gihapon. may second set pa daw. pa toast toast pa baga an mga Kulokoy, inupod pa si Ngipoy ( may Rhyme pa) na minsan lang ngani makauli.

"A toast to the brotherhood, we may just be three but together we are awful, este awesome palan, we speak for the entire class!"

Lain man daw sinda hadlok san mga baha baha. Nag pa pedicure pa ngani si Ferdie

"I canno be bothered by such weather disturbances, said One Komiks character to another , Tams to Ngips. I'll have a pedicure. Pls. call Ricky Reyes"

So rain kept pouring and the waters kept going up...Did I forget to mention that this get-together was at that hotel in Marikina near the Riverbank?

"Tubig lang mahadlok kita?, Kaya ngani may height baga kita"

Nawaraan pa ngani kuryente....amo na idto medyo nagkaharadlok na....

Let not the darkness of night cloak our enthusiasm!

Urulian na ngaya kay sobra na ini sabi ni Ronel. Everyone else had evacuated from the hotel, inlcuding the hotel staff, after all, the water had all but covered all of the first floor of the establishment. No electricity, lunch, merienda or dinner. Just plain old Johnny Black and a city full of water as chaser.

"May exit strategy kami pirmi, that is one of our key learnings at OLPS"

Sabi ngani ni Ronel, kaya ngani nag udong na ako mag seaman kay habo ko primi napapalibutan san tubig. An deposito baga sadto sa OLPS siya nan si Perry and para linis!

This must be what Noah saw, more than 3,000 year ago!

Unitl the next time, "glug-glug-glug". We will live to fight another day! Until the next reunion!! an Lain nag butwa, P_y_s!
