Lola Basyang, mini typhoon extraordinaire
If not for its name, I would think Basyang was the first typhoon to hit the country after the seemingly endless El Niño. The first typhoon was hardly felt so I don’t even know what A-name was given to it by that hopeless government office which was ironically called PAG-ASA.
I believe typhoon Basyang wasn’t even half as strong as last year’s super typhoon Ondoy but its effect is considerably devastating. What Ondoy failed to even leave a dent, Basyang has successfully put to ruins.
I’m reffering to that lone papaya tree in the backyard. I just picked two ripe papayas there the other day but now the tree was history.
It had been standing there forever but it only started to bear fruits and thanks to Basyang that I can’t even find the remaining fruits that were saving to make achara. HAHAHA!
Okay, the papaya tree was just a tiny casualty compared to the mighty narra trees whose thick branches were scattered everywhere. And I havent even mentioned the human casualties and the nationwidest electric interruption which, according to my Meralco insiders, will probably last for five days. That’s five freaking days without freaking internet access you son of a mother!!!
You think the brownout would stop Tifa from studying? 
And what’s the water supply has to do with it? We don’t have water for chrissake.
