The first two days have already been cancelled due to bad weather. Last Monday night was the second time of my 5 years (This will be my 6th, and I'm not THAT old) in college to experience flood in the Streets of Pureza.
So, to those who are studying in PUP (this also applies to those who study in the U-Belt Area, or in any school that experience flooding, or rain in that matter, OKAY this applies to ALL STUDENTS!) , let me tell you some tips on how to survive in these bad and unpredictable Manila (Philippines) (Tropical) weather.
First, DO NOT PANIC! Think things through, how will you get home, what route to take, do I have enough money. Don't make rash decisions. You might end up, getting lost or worse conquer the flood ( Oh NO!!! Leptospirosis!)
DOS. YOU MUST HAVE AN UMBRELLA ALL THE TIME! ALL THE FREAKING TIME! Even if it's sunny when you get out of your house, remember you live in the Philippines, even the Pag-asa doesn't know when it will rain (insert the song of Paramore, When It Rains), so to be safe, ALWAYS ALWAYS bring your umbrella-ella-ella-eeee!
TRES. If you like wearing shoes to school, BRING FLIPFLOPS (tsinelas), you don't want to have your shoes wet do you? And you'll avoid the risk of having athletes foot. Or even bring or wear boots to be very extra careful.
FINALE. Have waterproof/water resistant bags, or if you don't have that, just bring plastic bags where you could put your books, notebooks, cellphone, etc. so your belongings won't get wet. Sayang sa pera!.
PS. HAVE PRESENCE OF MIND, BE STREET SMART! Aanhin mo ang pera mo kung hindi ka marunong dumiskarte.
That's my list, but remember, do what suits you. Have a back up plan. Think it through so you won't end up like a cat in the rain.
HAVE FUN ON YOUR STAY AT OUR SINTANG PAARALAN.
