What Is Happening?!

Yesterday, 3 bombs exploded in Iligan.  Today, fighting is ensuing in the nearby towns.  One town is just 30 minutes away from my city.  I heard hostages were being taken to the mountains.  The evacuees are seeking refuge in Iligan.  I just hope the fighting won't reach my city.

The last time everything was so messed up was back in 2000, when I was still in Grade 4.  The difference then was Abu Sayyaf and MILF were making all the commotion.  Now, it's just the MILF (I hope).  I remember someone gave a fake bomb threat to our school, and my classmates were crying like mad because they were so scared.  That was also the time Abu Sayyaf planted a bomb that exploded inside a barge.  I didn't like the atmosphere of fear and terror that time.  And I don't like what is going on right now.

I just hope this is not one of Arroyo's ploys to create havoc, and make a move to have Chacha so that her term will be extended.
