Chicken inasal!!
waaaah!! just ate a really great kaidre meal that i love.. then igan nark told us there's bird flu in Bacolod!! noooo!! but anyway, i'm dying happy :p
in other news NEILLL!!!!! waaaaaah! nababaliw nako.
I'm in Manila now (the phone just rang, and it was my host letting me know that 10,000 people are about to have a spur-of-the-moment political rally somewhere fairly close to my hotel) and I doubt I'll wear the leather jacket much. They don't quite seem to have the same sort of enthusiasm for serious air conditioning here.
It was a huge contrast, coming out into in the funky sprawl of Manila from the gleaming bustle of Singapore. I was VIPed through the airport quite wonderfully by a lady who was puzzled that I didn't have an entourage (Me: "Er. Sorry.")
And other than that, I'm just starting to recover from the last few days, blinking a lot and smelling a little like Tiger Balm. And I am staying in my hotel, I learned on check-in, under an assumed name. "Hullo," I said to the lady checking me in. "I'm Neil." "I know," she said. "But we'll be calling you Mr _________." Identity can be so gelatinous sometimes.
-- Kinikilig ako!!! waaaaah.. we're breathing the same air Neil!! waaah!
