I used to refer to this place as "the jungle." I'm not sure why anymore, 'cause the place isn't anything like a jungle, other than being really hot. Cars were everywhere there, and it made sleeping annoying 'cause they were loud...

So, Matlang...I already talked about the Internet Café being cool. Most of the time, I hung out with Mon-Ching (the son of my uncle Mon-Ching, so I guess I'm his cousin, and the proprietor of the Internet Café, and he's 15-years-old or something), Lani (some girl...I think she's my cousin, too...I dunno. She's 17, btw, and in like her third year of college already. I don't know.), and Bading (I guess he's my cousin, too). I'm really not sure of the relations between me and these people, but whatever. I'm assuming they're family. Oh yeah, and my sisters were around, too.

Anyway, other than frequent visits to the Internet Café, we usually just drove around to random places. The beach and some country club-type place, Mon-Ching's house, and the park.

Lani was totally hitting on me, which I guess is sick 'cause I think we're related...but not by blood :P. She was always asking if I had a girlfriend, and about my past girlfriends, and stuff like. Then it got weird when she started asking if I had sex or not. Then we got all hot and sweaty in the park when she brought the subject up. Seriously, it happened. No, you sick bastard, I did not have sex with her. It was just really hot and sweaty in the park. But I assume she's not a virgin since she kept talking about sex and how it's "natural" and stupid crap like that. Whatever. I had no idea what these people were saying half the time 'cause I don't speak the language. At one point, she asked me "Do you speak tagalog?" and I was like, "No, why? You guys talking about me behind my back?" :P

Me and Mon-Ching talked about computers and games and stuff. I owned him and "Badz" (Bading) in Counter-Strike...kinda...I started off playing really lousy, not know what I was doing, but by the end of the day, I was pwning and they were like "lolz J.R.'s getting better."

They went swimming at the country club place. I didn't swim, 'cause I'm lazy. Swimming requires too much work. You gotta take a shower before you go swimming, then you gotta take another one after. Too much damn water involved. You also have to change your clothes more than once. Plus, since I am visually impaired, I can't see anything while swimming, and since it was an outdoor pool in the Philippines, there was bound to be stuff I didn't want near me in the pool.

We also went to the beach and through rocks in the water. Fun stuff. I also taunted a starfish. I'm awesome.

Oh yeah, at one point, we sang karaoke at Mon-Ching's house. Damn, I really suck at Karaoke...and singing in general.
