I am so bored. I've got nothing to do. I can't use the Internet, I've pretty much watched every episode of House on my computer, and I'm hungry.

This sucks...you know why this trip isn't interesting? I'm Filipino, that's why. I'm used to all this crap. The food isn't any different at this house than it is at my house in Paris. That's why I wanna go to the mall and go to Filipino restaurants...experience new crap there.

I suppose one would say, "Spend time with my family." Easier said than done. Sure, I could spend time with my family...by that, I mean I could sit next to them while they talk to each other about something in some language I don't understand, and if they try to include me, they speak to me in broken English that is difficult to understand. Doesn't sound like fun to me.

Being Filipino in the Philippines and not knowing how to speak the language sucks for other reasons, too. If I'm out somewhere, I can't do anything, 'cause everyone assumes I speak the language 'cause I look the part. So I can't go purchase something or ask a question about something (not that I would, since I don't trust 'em) without being confused even more. Geh.

So I'm seriously not feeling the "I'm glad I went to the Philippines" feeling. I haven't really done anything I couldn't do in Paris. Oh, I went to some crappy Internet cafŽ, which had Pangya on the hard drive. I guess that's new. I didn't actually play Pangya, though. I was also in a non-air-conditioned mall for a few hours. Yay?

I've pretty much only been in this room, watching house or playing SimCity 2000...and I have no idea how to play that game.

We're going to some place called "Nehg-rose" today. I'm not sure how you spell it, but that's how you pronounce it. We're taking a boat to get there. It better be that fast, air-conditioned boat. Not the stupidly slow, open-boat. Apparently we'll be gone from Iloilo for five days. Suck.

Well, I guess I'm done for now.
