Filipino Time
I hate hearing/reading the word “around” in the context of schedules.“I will be there AROUND 5pm” this pretty much means the person saying this will arrive past 5. We are so used to this system that we actually feel a one hour window is acceptable since technically 5:55 is still within the realm of “around 5pm”.
This is so stupid & inconsiderate but most everyone I know does this so it’s not much of a big deal.
What we need to do is remove giving estimates when it comes to schedules & simply give the exact time one prefers. Yes, we are not trains with calculated trajectories that can always arrive exactly on time but we can always be early. If you estimate that you would arrive at 5, give it a buffer & say “I will be there at 5:30”.
Also, traffic is a universal constant around here so remove that from the acceptable excuses of being late. Always plan with traffic in mind. Saying you are late because of traffic is like saying that you are late because our president has no hair on the top of his head. It’s ridiculous.Digs?

Lunch with an overlooking view of the city. Mountainside life is so stress-free, it’s good to be here once in a while. San Carlos Heights, Pardo.
This week, we learned from CNN that the median age of Filipinos is 22.9 years old. 22.9. We’ve just passed puberty.
Now, a median number is a midpoint — meaning, half of our population is older than 22.9, and the other half is younger. This is a really surprising statistic….

Whenever I visit Bohol, I always see to it I buy a scoop of the Bee Farm’s famous malunggay ice cream. It’s tastes weird and good at the same time.
I’m now a fan of Dia Frampton and how her songs have a real story behind them.
