Thank you for bearing with me. ************ Would you believe I only spent a few hours inside a mall, not one hour inside Megamall, or Mall of Asia? What about not watching TV except one morning when I wanted to see how Edu dances the Papaya dance. And yes, I didn't get to bring DVD or VCDs of Pinoy movies, a rarity since that has always been a staple whenever I travel from the Philippines. Oh well. ************ Top Stories while in the Philippines: 5. Ramiele Malubay - malubye - her exit 4. The rice shortage 3. GMA's birthday - the non-event 2. the Invasion : the boxing matches that Pinoys won lopsided 1. Brian Gorelle getting a radio show Pathetic. That's probably why I never opened the TV. ************ What I Was Not Able to Do During the trip 5. Visit Mall of Asia - and have halo halo in front of Manila Bay Sunset 4. See my favorite blogger friends. This was one of the few visits I wasnt able to see anyone. 3. Sleep for more than 5 hrs straight 2. Visit a dentist, spa, masahista (other than my barbero) and gym 1.
