My life in 5 days: Part three

BAGUIO

1. Baguio, after 16 yrs

I was five years old when I last visited Baguio. That was the time before the earthquake took place. When I came back, Baguio City changed a lot. It was more commercialized than before. When we entered the City, parang Recto. Anyway, it's a good thing that we stayed in an inn far from the "hustle bustle" of the city. Iggy's Inn was a good place to stay. I like the interior, especially the paintings, it's like the "DragonflyInn" (Gilmore Girls).

2. Old house

I took a picture of an old, unkempt house in front of the Inn. It seems that it has seen "better days". Kac, I saw a vintage car in the garage, parang fifties. I really wanted to go inside, gusto ko kac maka-pasok sa mga lumang bahay, well, I know it's weird, but i really love adventures! Honestly speaking, that house attracted me because I felt like I lived in the fifties.-->just a thought!

3. AFS Scholars

on my last night, i got a chance to hang out with the AFS scholars from Thailand, Panama, Belgium, Egypt, Belgium, & Chile. It seemed that they looked like my age, they're really tall! They even thought that I was younger than them. (liit ko kac eh). Kidding aside these kids were really intelligent. I find them interesting, because they were highly opinionated. I liked the way they expressed their opinions. Well,I really like people who speaks their mind because it's really challenging. Interacting with them, had expanded my horizons. I've realized that not all my prejudices (about other culture) were right. Because, I got intimidated by these kids at first,because I thougt that they were "racists". But, i was wrong, they're actually nice people. I've learned that you just have to be confident, especially when interacting with people from different nationalities/cultures.And of course, humor will serve you well.
