Yesterdays ramblings and earthquake.

Good evening guys. Maybe some of you are already asleep by this time ☺️
I just want to share what happened to us yesterday. We accompanied my sister in-law going to the terminal in Cabanatuan because they will go home to Bàguio after a month of vacation here in Nueva Ecija.
We woke up at 7:00 in the morning because we need to leave the house at 8:00 AM so that they can go home early. The travel time from Jaen to Cabanatuan is around 2 hours and Cabanatuan to Baguio will take around 5 hours. We leave the house at 8:30 AM as usual Filipino time. We ride on my father's tricycle going to the main Highway and we just asked the workmate of my husband that lives on the highway to park the motorcycle while we are accompanying my sister in-law to terminal.
When my husband stop the tricycle I went down and it's feel like I am fainting. I even hold on the tricycles roof and asked myself why I am feeling this way. I am not hungry or anything. Then after a couple of seconds the man in the pharmacy said don't moved because there's an earthquake. I hold hold my son tight that time and I am scared because we were standing in an old building and I really feel the movement of the environment. That moment I am praying Lord God please stop the earthquake, please protect us in Jesus name in Jesus.
After a couple minutes the Earthquake stopped and we all had a relief but still afraid. We ride a jeepney going to Cabanatuan. They have a lot of things to carry as thier relatives gave them some stuffs like dress, vegetables and sack of rice.
We arrived at the terminal at around 10:30 AM and there's a van already in the terminal. We were not waiting longer because the van going to Baguio is vacant.
After my sister in-law and her family settled on the van we already ride a jeep going to SM Cabanatuan to hang out there.
Going to SM Cabanatuan is not on our plan because we are on a tight budget but since we are already in Cabanatuan so we grab the chance to go in SM and I just sacrifice my savings for our food and for my son's happiness which is arcade and kidzoona.
We leave the SM at 5:00 PM and go to my in-laws house first because our things were still there and then we go home using my fathers tricycle. I am so tired yesterday to the point that I just want to sleep that's why I skipped writing an article yesterday.
That's all for tonight. Thank you for reading.
Keep safe po and be alert for possible aftershocks..
