On suspension of classes in Quezon City today July 25, message from Dean Roland Tolentino last Saturday at 11:43 am: quote “Pls be informed that classes in QC on 25 July 2011 have been suspended by the Office of the City Mayor. Pls inform your constituencies…”
When it rains golf balls and you start noticing, even if you’re doing something else, and when the rain starts turning into rumbling water boulders, and you start quietly timing it in your head, 15 minutes…. 20 minutes…because you have a vivid memory, tucked somewhere, of thousands dying helplessly the last time that happened, and you start telling people to think of getting indoors or getting home, you have what i call – Ondoy phobia; but unlike any other kind of phobia, it is perfectly rational, and perfectly reasonable, in a country where people have learned to take care of themselves without government.
