Earthquake and Ants

Well I wasn't able to post a new blog last night because it was super late when I got back from Davao, but yesterday was a crazy day. I experienced my second earthquake here in the Philippines yesterday morning. It registered a 7.4 magnitude and the epicenter was in the water, which I am thankful for because no telling what kind of damage it could do. I was sitting at my desk and I realized my desk was shaking to the point that I got up and ran to get under the doorway. At first I thought it could of been me either dizzy or disoriented, but when I sat down I felt it again and this time ran downstairs where the other Brothers were in the dining room, right when I saw them they said "you felt the earthquake." Nothing was damaged with this one and there was no tsunami. I was talking to one of the students today and he says he hates the feeling he gets when he experiences an earthquake, it's like the room is spinning. It was interesting to say the least.

After that little episode we went to the beach for about 30 minutes, just to go swimming for a little while. It was nice. I also got to see some of the fishermen at work. That is interesting as well.

Went into Davao yesterday just to go to People's Park and to the mall. This is another thing about Filipino's especially the girls here. If you have a camera and you are about to take a picture, they want to be in the picture. Even when I look at them, they scream like gitty little girls. Let's just say all eyes were on me while at this park. It was a really nice park, they had walking areas and grass areas where people can meet. Walked around the grass area and took some pictures with the people around there.

On our way back to Digos last night, the entire bus was full. So to make the trip interesting, I was having to stand up in the isle while we were heading back, it was that full. I thought I was going to have to stand up the entire time, but slowly people were getting off. I was able to find a seat, plus I was extremely tired.

This morning went to Mass at the monastery, I like that place. Tonight going to Janette's new house for a little get together. I am really looking forward to this because I know this is going to be a fun night.

Right now this will probably be the last time I blog from my laptop. For some reason my computer charger is not working probably, no lie I think there are ants in my charger. I only say that because when I unplugged my charger it was covered in ants. Ants seem to be everywhere in the Philippines. Hopefully I can get it fixed or find another one.
