i'm leaving for the philippines tommorow at 8:30pm and the person i'm supposed to go with just called me to say that he might have to bail because he got himself into a heap of trouble drunk a couple nights ago. i'm pretty dissapointed, but fucked if i'm going let this ruin my vacation.
WWMD? stick with the plan and just give'r? shit.
what a fucker.
Hit the road. Don't look back.
fucking idiot wants to postpone the trip because he can't control himself when he's drunk. fuck him. FUCK. sorry for venting on the board.
Never trust your happiness in the hands of others.
thanks buddy. i'm not trusting my happiness in his hands, just incredibly dissapointed that the person that i've been planning to go on this trip with for a couple months could be such a bonehead. i've already told him that i'm not in any way postponing this trip.Quote:

life goes on, the beaches are going to be beautiful as are the women.
Definitely give'r.
can you find a scab? definitely go either way.
what did he do?
Traveling alone rules. However things politically are bad and Ameriucans are targets. Phillipines has crazy commie groups as well as radical muslim groups. READ ON...
I would go anyways and just use your head.
stuff happens for a reason...
sew a canadian flag patch on your backpack.
As has already been pointed out, travelling alone rules!! Go for it, tell your buddy he is a weeney.
Bring back an STD (in a jar of course) and spread it liberally on his toilet seat when you get back.
anyone know any good pick up lines in Tagalog? (other then waving cash around the girly bars)

My new sig. I've been thinking that this is the best way to converse with all the unhappy, fat, bitter trolls out there who are blaming somebody or something else for their unhappiness.
This same thing happened to me while living in London. I had a trip planned to go to Corfu(Greece) with a group called Club 18-30(London Mags can fill in the blanks on this one). It was a sweet deal, and we had 3-4 people going. Well, one by one they dropped out. I said fuck it, when am I going to be able to get to Greece again?
Best time of my life. Being alone and being lonely are two different things. Do what you want, when you want, with no discussion. That is the way to travel. Be friendly and outgoing, and smart about the situations you get yourself into.
The Canadian flag thing might not be a bad idea either, unfortunately.
First of all, he's Canadian, so he'll be OK.
Second of all, GIVE'ER!
Have a good trip, dude.
Really. So when Abu Sayyaf sees his Canadian passport, they will apologize profusely and release him, right?Quote:

"Sorry guy, we thought you were American!" :eek:
I travel alone alot and enjoy it, even internationally. It is great self discovery time and you can do whatever whenever. The only part that sucks is not having anyone to split costs with.
I'd kick his but just for the hell of it.
With a 45% HIV infection rate amongst Manila's prostitutes, your mate may have done the right thing if he can't control himself when he's had a few to drink...
D'oh! Asked my girlfriend and she whacked me on the side of the head. Sorry... I tried...Quote:

Traveling alone really is great once you "break the ice" and do it. You can change plans/itinerary at a moments notice without consulting anyone, hook up with other groups for adventures, etc.
Sew a French or Spanish flag on your pack..:p
Shoot the hostage.
Abu Sayyaf rarely extends their terror beyond Mindinao & Americans for the most part are well liked in the Philippines anyhow.Quote:

The point I am making is that the one big thing you give up when traveling alone is a level of security - when you are alone you are much more vulnerable. You must compensate for this by being aware and not putting yourself in bad situations.
and the shitstorm continues...
going at it solo but the travel agent when cancelling my friends ticket cancelled mine as well and couldn't rebook me onto another flight until tommorow afternoon. so instead of arriving in manila at 11am i am now arriving at midnight. luckily i convinced her to put me up in a hotel and arrange for an airport transfer...so my intro to the philippines will be pretty luxurious.
what a bumpy road this has been.
to those saying sew a canadian flag on my backpack: no way. i don't want to be identified that way and everyone knows the only people who sew canadian flags on their backpacks are Americans and dorky canadians. ever see that Timmy Ho's commercial? fuck. if someone is going to mistreat you they are going to do regardless of whether or not you are bearing flags on your back. a westerner is a westerner and to a thief or a kidnapper we all have money and things they want.
dont knock up any chippies there like that dood I met @ Bruno'sQuote:

Tits = Suso (pron. soo-soh)
Ass = Puwet (pron. pwet)
Pussy = Pekpek / Puke (pronounced poo-keh)
Kantot = Fuck
Titi = penis
Adjectives
Malaki = big
Mahigpit = tight
Basa = wet
Masarap = Yummy / Delicious
Swearing 101
Putang ina mo = You son of a bitch (severe insult)
Tarantado / Gago = Asshole/jerk/etc
Hayop (literally means animal, but a pretty bad insult that will get you into fights)
Misc.
Ko = mine (use at end of sentence)
Mo = yours
You can often combine these insults for better effect. For example: "Putang ina mo, tarantadong hayop" has a greater effect that the three insults separated.
Examples
Gusto ko ng _____
I want some ______
Magkantotan tayo
Let's Fuck
Maganda ka
You're beautiful
Tagalog 101.
Gusto ko ng pekpek (1 point)
Gusto ko ng masarap na pekpek (2 points)
Gusto ko ng masarap na mahigpit na basang pekpek (3 points)
Malaki ang titi ko!
Malaki ang suso mo!
To be continued....
a really good friend of mine is Phillipino, so I got her to send me some catchy phrases, some might be repeats as I'm seeing what Punani posted.
Bakit gusto mo ng mangga? (why do you like mangoes?)
Sino ako? (who am I?) - tell him it means who are YOU?
lyan ay lapis titi. (That is a pencil penis.)
Ako si baog. (I am impotent)
Ako may maliit titi. (I have a small penis...)
and one you can actually use:
Ikaw ay maganda (you are beautiful)
Unless you're at The Moonlight Bunny Ranch.Quote:

I forgot a key phrase.....
"SINONG TATAY MO?"
"Who's Your Daddy?"
So saying "Nice Tities" will not get you the desired response. Or maybe it will?????
i'm out. thanks for letting me vent.
How do you say "eh" in Tagalog?
What do you do...invite one of us on your buddies expense.
Crinkle - Punani's are WAY better than yours. :D
Travelling alone rocks. Especially internationally, if you know the language!! You meet a bunch of people at hostels, and have fun times you will recount for years to come. I can't wait to book my next international trip. This post will make me daydream for days.
And I was going to ask my roommate for pickup lines in her native language tonight, but it apears powslut already left. Hope he has a great trip...
Come on, nobody? I...I...thought it was at least a little funny.Quote:
