Enlighten me

[Gabbie]

To Ms Moderator Chiqui, and everyone else... :)
I've been away from Manila for over a year now, but I'm goin home really soon, and I just wanted to become "enlightened" on what I should expect to see when I'm there na. Like what are the "in" things now...Clothes, Gimmick Places, etc... (aside from the obvious text mania, ok?! ;) )
All replies will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

matanong ba ko? ;)

hmm..any bar along the Nakpil strip is pretty good. People just hang out on the streets...if u've only been gone a year, i bet you've been to the malate street parties if u were really into going out. hmm same old same old...welll.....filipinos are pretty conservative....all of them dress relatively the same ..girls= knee skirts and tank tops
guys= slacks or jeans, nice shirt
same old same old, di ba?
