OZZBAE> I'M NOT FROM MATINA OR ANYWHERE FORM DAVAO.
MY FRIEND WHO JUST LEFT CHICAGO LAST MONTH
IS SOMEWHERE IN THAT AREA. I HAVEN'T BEEN IN
DAVAO. THE FARTHEST PLACE I'VE BEEN WHEN I WAS
STILL IN THE PHIL. WAS BORACAY.
DO YOU KNOW WHERE & WHAT"CASA MERCADO" IS?
DO YOU KNOW ANYONE FROM MC ARTHUR H-WAY?
IF YOU DO AND YOU'RE 19YRS. OLD OR AROUND THAT
AGE YOU PROBABLY KNOW HIM.


ANDROMEDA21> NOPE', UNFORTUNATELY I'M NOT FORM DAVAO.
CHICAGO IS MY HOMETOWN.
BUT I'D LOVE TO VISIT YOUR PLACE AND MEET
YOU WHEN I GO BACK HOME (THAT IS IF YOU'RE

M.I.R. 12- Casa Mercado is a school... Mc ArthuR Highway and Matina are one and the same... I know lots of people from Mc Arthur Highway but it's impossible to know everyone here. You see, Matina is like a district. It has a lot of Villages and subdivisions. Im 23 years old, it's not likely for me to know this kid, but maybe his family name and address can help. How long have you been there in Chicago anyway?? :D
Andomeda 21- San ka sa davao? :D

oozbao....Mas high-end yung Ca'Million kesa sa Blugre. Super katabi ng Blugre yung Ca'Million. Ano ba ang best seller sa Blugre? bakit dami tao dun lagi?Nasa gitna ng Subway and Blugre yung Ca'Million Sige try mo dun!:)

ah ganon ba? di ko kasi sha masyado napansin. i even asked my sis kung meron na nga and she said it's the one which has pan de sals during mornings, o di ba!... ewan ko nga bakit daming tao sa blugre? i think ang pinagmamalaki nila is their durian larspuccinno (spellcheck!), that's what they call it. i tried it pero hindi sha masyado lasang durian, i was expecting a better tasting one....;)

btw, taga davao ka ba?

Sep 14, 2001, 08:42 PM
oozbao...actually no, my dad does business over there kaya once in a while I go to Davao. kaya medyo familiar narin ako sa place. We stay at the Marco Polo Hotel, actually nandun kami nung kadayawan festival. Ganda nga ng mga accessories na binebenta dun sa may parang flea market, sobrang mura. Try mo yung raisin bread sa Ca'Million sarap yun talaga. Promise try mo dun ha :) may-ari kasi nun friend ko eh...hehehe.

Please help us identify julius:

This post is from "Lets pray for julius...." thread under small talk forum:



"For those who knew Julius , friend or foe, this is going to be a collaboration. Identifying Julius, we can identify him by any reason, technical by asking the administrator on what gateway or ISP he is using, by his replies, his lifestyle, the thread that he is into, the time he is logged, identifying alternicks,anything....

These are some of the clueswe have to gather as many clues as possible)

1. BSECE Grad batch ?,
2. Former Electronics and communication engineer board exam topnotch, I will ask fellows at IECEP (Institute of electronics and communications engineers of the philippines). Will someone ask the review centers, CASTRO, ERA,EXCEL,MITRC etc.

3. Has anyone know his school?
4. Is he from Visayas or mindanao or luzon?
5. Is he gay?
6. His org?
7. Anything the would help identify this man...... "


Please reply to the "Lets pray for Julius...." thread under Small talk forum.

hi! i'm from davao but im currently in quezon city coz of my studies... la lang...

here some of the things i miss about davao:
1) clean water (2nd cleanest in the world!!!)

3) no traffic
4) knowing almost everybody
5) 5 - 10 minutes lang nasa destination ka na
6) eden, samal and all vacation spots

Davao is the best city in the Philippines. Most peaceful,not much pollution, people are laidback and relaxed, plus the cab drivers are honest(except the airport drivers). Metro Manila has the worst cab drivers in the whole world.BTW, matina sad ko, duol SM.

oozbao
Dec 24, 2001, 05:25 AM
docjawo taga ecoland diay ka? you're right about the cab drivers, minsan kapag walang pang sukli, yung pasahero pa ang kulang ang pamasahe...:D

docjawo
Dec 25, 2001, 05:54 AM
cab fare Manila: 91 pesos.U give 100 pesos, bigyan ka kaya ng sukli ng mga g@gong driver na iyan? Buti pa Davao, same scenario, hahanap ng hanap ng coins yan to give u the exact change.By the way, pag duol sa SM, dili necessary taga-Ecoland. Pwede Times Beach, pwede SIR. Isa lamang akong hamak na mangingisda sa Times Beach....;) just kidding. Taga-Ecoland sad ka oozbao(boy or girl)?

Hi Davaoeneos!!

I've been to Davao when I was in my late teens, and I was just amazed how beautiful the city is. It is so refreshing seeing an almost untouched areas with the beautiful beaches, beautiful view overlooking Mt. Apo, the bustling little traffic (compared to Manila, where I grew up) near downtown, the classic older jeeps than I never see anywhere else but there (and wonder how they could still be running today) . I never seen so beautiful place compared to other places in the Philippines that I would like to buy a house there someday and make my vacation home in the near future. I promised that when I left Davao.

I missed it.

I will be back!

(I used to live in Morales Village, Matina)

may billiards din naman sa venue and i think may place din sa mts na may billiards...

i guess what's fun with mts is that it has blu gre cafe and you have alot of choices, tapos open air, kaya kahit buga lang ng buga ang mga tao, ok lang... sa venue naman, dami ding choices, kung trip mo sumayaw, malaki ang dancefloor tapos ok ang mga bands and palaging may sikat gaya ng freestyle, side a, etc kaya lang nga closed siya and pag nasa second floor ka medyo mapapansin mong may cloud hovering the first floor composed smoke from cigarettes and medyo masikip din...

We simply discovered that we come from the same school . . . its not a case of bragging. Its a Davao thread, and it so happens that some of the people here are from that school, and are simply catching up on things.

Have you ever been to a different place, and met someone from your home town or from your alma mater? Story swapping is normal.

If you feel you can't contribute to the developing AdDU segment of the thread, then there are others -- leave it alone. Its too trivial a matter to even be concerned about. Walay ma wala ba.

Ang importante -- mga taga-Davao ta, unya ato ni na thread.

Feb 24, 2002, 09:53 PM
adroth hi! yup, i guess it'll be best if we just stick to topics strictly about wadab.

freefem didn't have plans of exposing his dirty laundry in public so hold your horses and don't talk about "that's not the atenean way" crap to me. i was just merely pinching my two cents in about a previous comment that my alma mater's standards weren't as they used to be.

morningmusuko ateneo de davao is OBVIOUSLY in davao city so we can't help talking about the same school that we went to. it's a davao thread for jeepers' sake and we're not bragging. it was just that we found a topic, however boring for you, from where we could start having a conversation somehow.

geez...last time i checked, i thought this was a free country. loosen up...internet na nga lang to dami pang bawal. go start your own thread na lang where talking about ateneo isn't allowed.

swtpnay84 m from davao but currently residing in quezon city, studying college kasi... actually, ganun nga sa mga small towns pero nakakagulat for davao kasi napakalaki, napaka-raming tao and its a city pero provincial pa rin most ppl... kakatuwa...

about the earthquake i haven't heard anything about it from my mom so i assumed it wasn't a big deal. kasi pag may mga ganung pangyayayri usually, tumatawag agad yung mom ko para mag-balita... hmm... maka-tawag nga maya... btw, did you guys notice na for two consecutive years, every new year lumilindol sa davao??? kakatuwa nga nung lumindol nung jan 1 2001, inisip ng most ppl, signos na ng end of the world... hehe... :D

hi haik! most of the people i know in davao want to come to manila coz wala silang mahanap na work na gusto nila doon. but as the others have said and if you're open to the idea, you can try teaching there. i heard mababa ang sweldo but it's one of the trade-offs if you really wanna work in a traffic- and stress-free city :D

bote123, some points.

1. it's not polluted
2. cheaper standard of living than manila
3. great food
4. stable peace and order situation
5. less hectic pace of life

maybe it would be better if you enumerate why/what you lke about manila, and we could go from there.

stuff i miss most about davao:

- the fact that office hours start at 8 but you can leave the house at 7.45 and still get to the office on time
- taxi drivers who return your change, kahit na piso na lang
- being able to just put on a swimsuit and shorts and drive 10 mins to go to the beach
- the rain (hehe)
- cheap everything
- and of course the friendly people

kulang pa yata... isip muna ako :D

Some of my co-workers who were from Manila, did have a trouble getting used to the slower pace of life:

- 24 hour establishments are rare; many places actually start closing at 6 pm

- Entertainment options are not as varied as those in Manila. You can't party in Malate one night, then bust your wallet in Rockwell the next. Nevertheless people from other cities, even as far as Mati, Cotabato and Gen. Santos, still come to Davao for R&R.

- I would have said the relative lack of variety in items that you could buy in malls (Gaisano included) -- but then again, I remembered that SM is there now.

- Corporate linkages in Davao-based universities might not be as well developed as manila based-schools. (But we can still compete toe to toe with the best in Manila)

- If your set on climbing the corporate ladder -- it might not be the best place to be. Nevertheless it is the economic hub of Mindanao (no offense to people from Cagayan de Oro -- after all your actually competing with Cebu :))

Nevertheless, you will appreciate:

- the absence of typhoons

- taxi drivers are not a-holes (even on Friday nights)

- traffic is no where near manila-levels

- people are more trusting, and less inclined to swindle (that what my manileno co-workers observed)

- relative proximity of the beach

- low cost of goods

- People won't take it against you if you don't speak Visayan


Davao is a great place to live; not necessarily the greatest place to work. One can't have everything. :cool:
