Once in a while, you see a post that just makes you smile. This video post by jolengs is one of them.
while i was taking footage of this video, a security guard approached me and ordered to stop taking pictures. i replied back that am not,and instead blurted out that i am shooting a video to let the whole world know how beautiful our country is. i smiled back and continue on my shooting. oh yes it was a beautiful sunny day! ;p
On the same weekend, a friend made this post about a dream:
I have a dream that one day, when foreigners think about Metro Manila, they do not think of the slums that are forever the image shown by international TV, but of this beautiful skyline that is perhaps one of the best in the world.
He’s talking about this photo:
This is the view from the heli pad of the GCC Building, Ortigas. The green area on the bottom right is Wack-wack Golf, host of many International golf tournaments. Around it is the Wack-wack Village. On the far right is the Makati Business District
These two posts make me homesick. I’m now going to hunt for more good Manila (and Philippines) photos/videos.

And that’s why I generally dislike staying in a foreign country for any extended period of time.
