PhilipPenis

I was waiting to take some pictures before I posted my first blog in the Philippenis but I haven't taken very many pictures. I made it. My butt was aching from sitting for 24 hrs straight, but it didn't fall off, yet. Benjie and Reign came to the airport to pick me up, but I couldn't find them so I asked this guy named Adrian to let me borrow his cell phone. He is a gay. He called them for me, and I finally found them waiting down a ramp outside. Now, he has been texting Benjie's number asking how I am doing. My first fan! The city is huge. Traffic everywhere. But not like U.S. traffic. Just a jumble of jeeps, trikes, buses, vans, and wild pigs. I haven't done much since I got here. Mostly just shopping for things I needed at the house and trying to eat as much as I can. I woke up this morning to Benjie's dog fighting some neighborhood kitten. He killed it. Death is so close. The house is nice. We have an Aircon unit in the bedroom and it got cold during the night. Benjie was too afraid to reach over my bed to turn it off. He is the coolest guy ever. We spent all morning together laughing and having fun at other peoples expense at the mall. I start work tonight and I'm pretty excited. And another storm is supposed to hit tonight. Hopefully I don't have to swim home. I'll post some pics soon. And if anyone has any question, send them to me and I will try to answer them next time. Peace out Kanos

This is where my office is. I will post some more pics later.

In case you haven't heard the Philippines has been hit with some pretty bad Typhoons in the past few weeks. The hardest hit, Marikina City. Which according to some people I have talked to, is pretty much the toilet bowl of Manila. Grapes! I told you this blog would be primarily centered around the toilet.



So here is a before and after picture of the bedroom I will be sharing with my friend/co-worker Benjie...





Apparantly, he had a generous out of country donor buy him a new bed. My only hope is that we will not be sharing. It looks GREAT!

Babalik ako Ng Pinas

Yesterday I sold my car. I cried. My family said they would visit me. They lied. After Sable bit Duffer, he died.

I am not going to write in rhyme all the time, just most of the time.

I am leaving to the Philippines on Oct 26th so me and Travis figured I should write a blog. Even though I think these blogs are for married girls who like to brag about their kids bowel movements. I guess I will just brag about my Asian poo. Did you know in the Philippines the toilets flush counter-clockwise instead of clockwise like the U.S.? Go. Check your toilet. I'll post a turd flushing video soon.

Anyway. I will begin working for an IT company called ITO in Marikina city, just outside of Manila. I'll be posting here as much as I remember too keep everyone updated because apparently FACEBOOK isn't enough www.facebook.com/shaneshreeve
