You don't always have to 'get it'

Tiny Volcano

This is a tiny ass volcano called Taal. It's right next to Jeremy's
right elbow. Clearly it is very impressive. The view was great but
it's always insanely hot so we were sorta miserable. Luckily Jeremy
and I were fortunate enough to bump into the only authorized raybans
dealer on the streets of Manila. I used the negotiation skills I
obtained in law school, and 5 minutes later, we both got a fresh pair
of new Wayfarer shades for 150 pesos or $2.50. This kept our eyes
protected and our style ultra-fly while battling the heat.

Everywhere we go we hear Bieber and lady gaga. American pop culture is
clearly parasitic. They did a whole report on the Emmys here. Why
would anyone here care? We don't even care while living in the
states. I fly thousands of miles away and can't escape Starbuks even
in a 3rd world country. The cost of a frappacino here could feed a
family for a week.

When we get drunk at night the street food we eat usually are bacon
wrapped hot dogs. Here, they get drunk and eat eggs with duck embryo's
inside. Insane. I don't even like lettuce, no way I'm eating an
aborted duck.
