Atse
It’s pronounced as at-che. Kinda similar to the sound you make when you sneeze.
Last Saturday, me and some of my classmates went to Angeles City because we had this entrance test in Angeles University Foundation. I have to go back there on December 15 for my interview though the results will be only released on summer.
After we took our entrance test in AUF we went to Nepo Mall to eat. I don’t like that place! It’s just like you’re at Tutuban! Hehe. My classmates did some shopping there because it’s really cheap and you can even demand for a lower price.
Atse, nanu pu ita?
Tagalog translation: Ate, ano po iyon?
English translation: Sister, what do you want?
We always hear that sentence in that mall and it’s really irritating! Even you are not entering their stalls they will say that line! For fun, we were mimicking their voices and saying that line and some other lines such as “Nanung size (What size)?” and “Malagu, sali na ka (Miss beautiful, please buy now)!” It’s very hilarious, I tell you.
The next day we went to Baguio. Well, I enjoyed our stay there. Ooohh… I like SM Baguio! The design of that mall is different compare to the SMs here in Pampanga and in Manila. My father told me it’s like a mall in USA. I agree… lol. Alas, the air-cons are off. Lol, and to cap it all we slept in an air-con less hotel. Well, Baguio is a place in the moutains that’s why they don’t need air-con. We visited some parks there (the usual parks) Camp John Hay, Burnham Park and Mines View Park. There are so many Kapampangan vendors at Mines View Park kaya kinapalan na namin mga mukha namin… Hehe, tawad na lang ng tawad! It’s not the Baguio I know, a lot of things had changed (as what had Tammy said).
Hmm, I have more things to blog but I’m afraid that I can’t post them all here. Happy birthday MM!

Oo nga iba ang structure ng SM Baguio pero minsan nakakainis kung umuulan kasi pati sa loob umuulan. Hehehe. Pero malamig dun sa mall kapag gabi. May mga kaklase ako dati na Kapampagan nung nasa CICS pa ako. 3 ata sila

Hahah. yah, i know what you mean. Sometimes they’re irritating and annoying already. It gets in my nerves. But we also have to understand that it’s their job. That’s the only way they survive. So yah, solution: stack up some cottons in your ears when passing by some stalls/tiangge. HAHAH!
I know SM Baguio doesn’t really have aircon, right? That’s what I know. Last time I was in Baguio, SM there wasn’t done yet. Bummer. I hope I could visit there sometime soon

ahh, i love baguio..kahit nung grade 2 pa ako nakapunta dyan. dyan ako nagpapabili nang silver eh, kasi meron kaming kamaganak dyan :wow:. 15 degrees na ata dyan eh kaya hindi na talaga kailangang mag aircon, iniisip ko nga pano kung maliligo ka na? sobrang lamig siguro unless magpapakulo ka nang tubig diba?
