I hope the government are already prepared, I hope there will be no severe traffic and no one will be stranded, since everyone is about to go home in their provinces. It's holiday in the Philippines! Nov 1 to 2, everyone are preparing to visit their loved ones' grave in the cemetery, my family already visited the cemetery yesterday to visit our grandmother's grave, and also they celebrated her birthday also. I think its a very busy days for every Filipino and a big get together. Its a Long Weekend. have fun with your families. How are you guys doing?

@rakski how can I say I am glad that I am free from that without offending anyone. By of course the bad thing about it, I don't have a stable income, but if i will not take a risk, i might not have time to do build my own business or career online.
