I'm back!




    






     I'm back here in Korea from a month vacation in my home country~ Philippines. Yes, I really had plenty of good memories to keep as well as bad ones....but that's okay... loosing your CASIO EXILIM digicam, all jewellery, some $150, some 120,000 won, your priced white musk cologne and set of silver chain to your newly hired nanny... THAT'S OKAY, RIGHT? (GRRRRRRRR!!!! May SHE REST IN PEACE)

     On the brighter side, I met my family, relatives and friends(College friends: Llynn, Amie, Bona, Ate Joy, Kuya Bhe, Pat, Doosol colleagues: Mike, Eric, Ms. Tina, Ube, Liezl, Mau and friends in Batangas)enjoyed good old jokes and stories of all kinds.

     My ate and I enjoyed chatting and shopping all around the metro... unfortunately she gained some weight and it's too difficult for her to find trendy clothes that she likes. My younger sister got married to a wonderful man..(her college classmate) and is now going to be mother. Kuya is still in Saudi and going home by the end of June..he said. Meanwhile, my relatives in Batangas are all perfecty fine.
     Their houses got improved, and all of them are financially blessed this year. Lola Tanda is still fine although experiencing a lot of trouble with her aging body.

     I learned driving too(M/T) and secured a non-professional driver's license at the LTO. I drove almost around NCR except Muntinlupa...inside.

     Then my last week came. We went to Puerto Galera and had so much fun making sand castles, losing clothes because of the big waves, crazy banana boat ride, snorkeling at the coral garden and watching gay men dance and lip synch while serving beers to customers and swimming, eating and eating.

     I even got the chance to attend to our baranggay fiesta the day after we came from Mindoro.
Sounds fun, huh? It's nice to be back home.

Keeping Right

Have you ever experienced walking on the right side of a sidewalk when suddenly a rushing Korean run into your direction, literally? If you won't give way, you'll just hear that someone muttering something under his breath. Or have you ever had these cases like you were doing " patintero "(pah-tin-teh-roh) with the other person when you are walking? I find this behavior very bothering (sometimes odd and funny) especially when I use the stairways in the subway. Some subway stations have escalors going up installed at the left (e.g. Deokcheon Station). What is surprising is that they even have this sign: I told this to Tommy a few days ago and I just found out from him that they learn walking at the left side of the road in their elementary days. They even have this song that goes lilke this: "People keep to the left and cars to the right. Let's cross the street after looking right and left." So, it must be because of an old convention of walking on the le...

Samsung's AMOLED

Yup. I have a new phone and this is because of Chloe. She knocked out my phone so hard on the bathroom floor that made the monitor useless for two whole days! I went to a near Anycall service center and actually planned to repair it but they said that I had to pay for around 25,000won for a part replacement, I just thought of buying a new one since there are a lot of free phones nowadays and I had used my phone for more than two years. To pay 25k for an old, really full of scratches phone (because of Chloe) is too much for me since sooner or later I also need to replace it. In the end, it turned out not to be a free phone(850,000 won / $690). Tommy bought this phone for me saying that I need a "much, much better phone" because of his daughter...hahaha! and because I've been always using free phones since I came here in Korea (which are NOT really FREE PHONES because of the additional services included in the phone bill for the first few months). So, I resulted picking thi...
