Panic Before 4pm

Jan 18, 2008 16:19

Another day, another explosion. Welcome to the Philippines.

This time it's in Subic. And it's a gas leak. 2 dead, 2 critical. That's all the news said.

A panicked 15 minutes of scrambling to reach an aunt who traveled to Subic yesterday. Horrifying images running through my head of Losing Yet Another Loved One. The heart-rate-slowing pills stopped working.

But she's fine. So I'm fine. Heart rate's still pretty fast but at least I've stopped hyperventilating. Phew.

life in manila, demented doses, bad days
