************

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. Lastly, despite being in a city-wide sauna that was Cebu and Manila - I wasnt able to lose weight - eh ang sarap kumain eh...
