They said this is a repeat of Ondoy, but GMA News’ Meteorologist Nathaniel Cruz gave a better explanation about this: Ondoy went in slow, while Ulysses succeeded other storms. ...
We do not believe such a thing like purgatory exists, only heaven and hell. Right now, I’m writing from another desk, far away from the usual. Sure, the internet’s fast and all, but what I’ve been doing all day is to finish a backlog that seemed to be impossible. I’ve never felt a hellish moment like this.

Here’s the rest: Secured another media partnership for an upcoming event (details soon) Got noticed by Haachama (more on this below) Played the Jstris cheese run for the second time on Twitch Got access to the actual meeting room for The Union’s “United we Stand” stream Sprained my ankle forcing me to be bedridden for half a day I’ve digested what’s happening in the fast-paced Virtual YouTuber scene.

After less than a year, we now have another equipment upgrade in office - this is necessary to speed up the editing process of our online events. After some tweaking, I was able to connect two monitors to a single desktop, just what I need to edit videos and stream well. Now that the materials have been set up, I expect more work to come my way. The events season is not yet over. ...
