When my friend, Bebang, came to visit Iloilo, we met in one of the restaurants here. Due to my busy schedule, I just dropped by for a moment. Too bad I couldn’t drink beer with them because I still had to go to work. So, I asked for this:

Funny, they top their Oreo Frappuccino with a Bingo cookie!

Christmas was also fast coming during that time. I think it was funny too that they hung small Christmas trees on the ceiling. Since when did it become stylish to hang Christmas trees? LOL!

20peso-bill_by_mickomawsPipo found this interesting 20 Peso-bill which has obviously been altered. I’ve seen many more things that other people do with these paper bills, Filipinos especially.

Is this an indication of our immeasurable artistic propensity or lack of respect to ourselves and things that we have?

I am hoping to find more stuff that you can find only  in my beloved country — the Philippines!
