Friday, October 18

During the meeting this afternoon, some guy from the news department said that malls in the metropolis as well as the MRT/LRT lines are under terrorist threat, and that we should stay away for like 72 hours. So we were trying to figure out where to go, which way to use getting there, considering that we had to bypass Edsa altogether. The Ortigas malls are having their quarterly sales right now, which means it'll really be hell to get from one point in the city to another. But we took the risk and ended up having pizza in CPK Shangri-la.

Over pizza, we thought that maybe the warning wasn't really true. Some product of paranoia. Some minutes ago, got the message that a bus was bombed in Edsa. Nothing is ever too paranoid when you're living in Manila.

update:The bus was somewhere near Balintawak. My friend passed it on her way home. Read the full report here.
