Philippines	Balikbayan boxes being raided?	Filipino luggage. Just a heavy cardboard box that you fill with goodies and send home to your family, usually by sea cargo. However, the boxes are very sturdy, and since they are often free, they are used for a variety of shipping and travelling needs. Where do you get these boxes and where do you send it from and how long does it take?	Rahstyles	Male	Philippines	2013-03-19 16:38:00

Philippines	Funny thing Old filipino lady said and filipinos say and this i love and hate about the PI!?	Noo noo.. here in the USa..  I call the restroom same as bathroom and same as toilet..... John or head thats like a military term my dad used to say..  but still people know it...   Yea that naphkin thing was confusing too.. my wifes used to say it.. but . i get it means tampon or pad..   Speaking of food.. One of my supervisors is mexican... and i was talking to this philipino person and i told her i like the puto at inasal... and the supervisor kept laughing and his like.. yea so you like Puto's right?   And i was like yea the food..  He said that means g a y in spanish..   OH and this philipino lady at my work said.. did you bring me a pusit ...but the way she said it sounded like the other female gental word... so i told her... Lol  Umm no .. but you already have one of those...  but im shure pol ( a old filipino guy who always checks out girls at my work)  would like some pusit...  and she was like.. yea he likes it too.. but i wanted some pusit  ..  I was like.. sorry couldnt bring any cause you need a visa for that... and i didnt know you hang that way...   She didnt get me...  But i figured out pusit is like some kind of dried squid or somthing. Be careful not to over dress yourself or be obvious your a foreigner  there.  I am from Philippines and I do love my country but despite all the good and charm there is there somehow, you can deny that there's also some amount of risk everyone should pay attention to.     Oh most defintely .. I already know about the snatchers.. Im already street smart for that.. I dont let nobody get near me to snatch my belongings..	Rahstyles	Male	Philippines	2013-06-25 09:54:00
Philippines	Funny thing Old filipino lady said and filipinos say and this i love and hate about the PI!?	Yea but shes not from Bacolod we just stay there at the hotel because her moms house doesnt have A/C  and i cannot be there without a/c.   What I like about the philipines.. is like...  The movie tickets are like 5 at night time and the imax is 10$   so its like half the price of tickets here in cali..   Another thing is.. Man.. when i walk through the mall i feel like a celebrity or somthing.. even though im not a white guy im a asian guy..   I think its because i dress diffrent from the rest of them.. Cause i got the new nike air forces the ones you cant get int he PI and even the TSA guy at the Airport in manila said nice shoes... and also my  Evisu shorts and clothing is fresh clothing you cant get in the PI...   Or maybe cause they just think i look or im fly.. even though i dont think so...  But I swear.. I keep my head down when i walk through the mall in the PI now.. cause.. even the girls that are there with there bf take a stare and smile at me..     I mean i used to get that in highschool since i was part of one of the "cool kids" groups... but i mean it went overboard int he PI..   Feel like a celebrity I swear.. So Now i know how...  Jay Z feels like	Rahstyles	Male	Philippines	2013-06-25 09:32:00
