~ The jackpot on 6/55 proved to be evasive. They predict that the pot will rise up to Php 375 M by tonight. Now, we're competing with the senators, saying that if they won, they will give a portion to charitable institutions. Sigh.

~ There are still four typhoons expected before the typhoon season ends. So, let us remain to be vigilant. Meanwhile, the Laguna PNP came up with an improvised boat made up of scrap woods, metals, plastic, etc., to aid our town, Sta. Cruz, Laguna in times of flood. I want to see this boat.

~ The red tide is up. So, be careful when buying seafoods.

~ I heard there is a lantern-making contest here in Sta. Cruz, Laguna. The contest will be between barangays.
