Manila is an Emotional Vampire
I am slowly being drained of my energy here in Manila, each day that passes I feel like this city is sucking away, I am becoming weaker, not stronger.

Manila, Ermita Philippines

I see little hope in the Philippines; I just see the country as downpour of rain whereby the water is trying to drain down the sewers, it is searching for a way to cleanse the city. There is no hope, it is already too late.

I was walking around th! e other day and I looked up at a high-rise condominium building, and I started to think,
“It would be nice to be up there, out of this city of shit.”

I stopped and asked myself,
“Where did that come from?”

I have known for years, any place is nice for about two weeks; it is after you have been in a city or country for two months when you rose colored glasses is removed. I have been here for two weeks to many and I arrrive here three weeks ago.

I consider Manila, Philippines a study in how to go wrong. I am trying not to blog, I have trouble finding anything nice to say.
