Hi guys, I’ve been away for a while.  I went home to my parents again last weekend to spend time with little niece Erin whom I missed so much.  I couldn’t establish a good internet connection that I was fretting about it.  I tried to focus on other things aside from internet.  I was glad I was able to endure three days of not being online.   Wow!  I couldn’t believe I did it but I did.  I want to give myself a pat on the back hehehhe….

Yesterday, we were supposed to have a court hearing back in our old venue inside the compound of the Hall of Justice of the Regional Trial Court of the 12^th Judicial Region but it was postponed.  I heard another colleague mentioned about the threat that the RTC is one of the target of bombings.  I was this paranoid that I want to be out of the place asap.  Well I have reasons to be freaked out.  Last week, a grenade was thrown inside the compound of the residence of one of the judges here.  Luckily the whole family is not at home when it happened. 

I don’t understand why it is happening again.  I don’t think it is election related cases as these people are not politicians.  I don’t want to speculate about things I have no knowledge about.  My life here right now is just on a “wait and see” basis only.  Well, I just hope and pray that our situation would improve a little; too much chaos for a very small city like ours.  I shudder when I think of myself being torn into pieces if ever I become (God forbids) a victim of this bombings.  The last time I witnessed it was on July of last year and it was not a good thing to see.  It’s horrible and heart-wrenching.
