i'm back after 2 consecutive days of fever and colds after a long drive to the seemingly endless farmlands of nueva ecija for an event.
after this arduous journey, this is what i learned:
1) no matter who you are, people won't give a shit. they will continue doing what they're doing like dry palay on the street so you've don't have a place to drive on.
2) if you think you're sad, think about the people who live in Talavera, Nueva Ecija.
all they see are farms, their carabaos, endless ricestalks, the dirt road's a plenty, there's nothing to do, there's no nightlife either.
3) with the rapid branching out of Jollibee, there will be a time when you're looking for local specialties, all you can find it is Jollibee or worst, Chowking.
4) a lot of the provincial folks are camwhores. they will gamely pose for you. that's how friendly Filipinos are.
5) all it takes is one left jab to shut a noisy, boogered bloody Briton up and it took just 2 rounds and a tons of commercial breaks in between.
6) Pacquiao can stop crime.
7) The time you leave is directly proportional to the traffic that you will expect once you're in Manila. So don't leave early, traffic's going to bad anyway.
8)Never underestimate somebody from the province. Some of them make more money than you in the city do.
