Manila, Manila, I keep coming back to Manila…
…There’s just no place like Manila. Manila I’m coming home….
Yes, I’m back in Manila for the nth time. It doesn’t make practical sense but family comes first.
Just want to share an observation I made at the PAL flight on the way here. When the flight attendant asks you what drink you want and you reply “Juice.” (which was what the person seated next to me did), the attendant will automatically give you orange juice. So is that a Filipino thing or is it globally understood that when you say juice, you mean orange juice? I wanted apple juice so I had to specify “Apple juice.”
Hmm…

well it’s either orange juice or mango juice (the two most popular choices among pinoys).
pero mas mura orange juice compared sa mango juice so orange juice kaagad binibigay.
almost same price ang orange and apple juice pero mas popular ang orange juice so orange juice pa rin.
yun ang reasoning ko pero syempre, walang basis yun hehehe.
