Trip to Philippines

Hi all, i'm finally back from my tourny in philippines, manila. I had my fun and really enjoyed myself.

Bowling was avaerage, i think that i've already did my best but it just that i'm not good enough to win. anyways, the scores ain't on abf website, you've got to go to www.jbowlmart.com to see the scores for the qualifying and masters.

As usual, the scores are like monsters. So, basically i was bowling with a bunch of monsters and some human that has not yet transformed into one. in other words, it's an unripe monster, LOL. kidding. but the scores are really damn high.

putting that all aside, manila may be the capital of philippines, but it is not as developed as you think it would be. there are children out there in the streets that will come to you to ask for money. there are at least one security guard in every shops and there are security everywhere. it felt safe and yet unsafe.

played in the casino and lost about 5000pesos. convert it to SGD and that will be roughly $240. Roulette is fun but Bacarat has more chance of winning. Jackpot is stupid, but still there are people winning. like my lucky room mates who made their winnings through jackpot.

the food there is very salty and the drinks there are very sweet. their mangos are damn nice. especially thei ice-cream. the bowling centre has a very unique design with pillars in between lanes.

guess what, that centre has 39 lanes. weird isn't it? so i asked, does the number here starts with 0? everyone's laughing. lane 39 is just some odd lanes out of nowhere. the lane number starts with 1.

but oh well, bowling will all the pillars out of nowhere makes it challenging. although it's irritating and annoying since i always hit the pillars, this is what makes this game interesting and fun. came in 7th for classified. cash out a bit and it went back to the casino.

nothing much to shop and i've beenon my room watching animes half of the time. missed singapore food and was really tired since our flight is at 4pm and we were at the airport at 2pm. flight turbulence was terrible when we went, but it was better when we came back.

catching up on my animes and mangas updates. seems like i didn't miss out too much. will be back to training on wednesday and tomorrow is my only day off. gonna rest to my heart's content.
