Midnight black out:Ramblings
January 27, 2022
Light light light! Where are you in the middle of the night? We need you, we need air too. Why? Why did they cut them out in this perfect time? No, it's not perfect though. Okay, we have a situation here. I tell you this, we don't have electricity now it's started at 11:00 in the evening and here's what makes me annoyed, they just announced 1 hour before the electricity went out. In their announcement, they say that we should be ready for the possible blackout that will happen at midnight. So we charged our phone but it didn't go full because the electricity hour after we charged them went out already!
I am not angry guys, I am just annoyed cause why didn't repair it in the morning and not at these hours. I think most of our houses here don't have electricity. I can hear kids crying maybe they are scared of the dark or they want air. My baby is scared of dark too but he's still sleeping so he wouldn't mind yet.
This is the only light we have right now. It's a mini flashlight that can be glued to the wall. At first, we used the flashlight of our phone but the battery life doesn't last long, the good thing is my mother-in-law gave us this flashlight. We don't want to use candles as it is dangerous to use in this kind of hour. We need to sleep and so we can't guard it the whole time. I'm scared our neighbors might use candles and they might not look into it 24/7 but I hope they are being careful and mindful.
The mini fan that I ordered online is finally used now. But the problem is we forgot to buy new batteries and it didn't last long, no use now.
I have a fan here and I'm using this now for my baby since mosquitoes are everywhere. I'm itching because of the bites of those bloodsucker mosquitoes and I'm not loving it.
I told my partner to sleep first and I am the one who looks for them and fans our baby since I'm not yet sleepy because I'm thinking of my baby. Mosquitoes might have a first on his skin. And later when I'm sleepy I will wake up my partner so that he's now in charge of our baby.
Thanks to the mobile data I can still write now even though we don't have internet. A while ago my partner load my sim so that I can still attend our zoom orientation even though we were at the cemetery to visit my mom.
I think I need to cut this article now, the battery is 13% now. It might shut down without me being able to publish this one.
Thank you for reading my ramblings at this hour. The time is 2:01 am, it's been almost two hours since the electricity went out and they said it will come back tomorrow so it means later I don't know what exact time, I hope it is early. I can feel the hot now so I'll be using my two hands to fan us here. I will make up tomorrow guys! Ciao.
Keep safe guys!

Ang hirap pag nag blackout pag gabi. Lalo na talaga sa part ng nga bata. Kaya dapat laging handa.
