Today I have made an entry in Tagalog. With this, it should be sent along to my cousins. Heheh.

Furthermore, the official languages used in the Philippines are Tagalog and English...but Mamegu-san couldn't speak any of them. Hahaha. It's no good. Try your best a little bit further, Mamegu.
Everyone, do bananas ring a bell when you say "Philippines"? Or is it dried mangoes?
They're both good. In Japan, they cost too much to buy one of them!
...no, locally they are sold very cheap... Yeah, I suppose.
By the way, I celebrated my 17th birthday in the Philippines but the birthday cake was stupidly dealt with. It was square; its length and width were about 30cm and 50cm respectively, I guess.
Choco Choco Choco... all are completely chocolate......
I ate a slice all the way down. Ah, ah, it's sweet and it's very sweet.
But, a lot of my relatives came and my brothers were absent. I was so very glad!!
My parents of course, the airport personnel, the people at the department store and the city people looked very warm. Because at the moment I stepped down from the airplane, all of the people who were doing their jobs in the airport were wearing Aloha shirts!
Ah, of course there are also people in their uniforms, though more importantly that kind of cheerful feeling. It is considerably friendly.
There is one thing that I couldn't experience when I live in Japan and that is the strong feeling of relationship/bonding among people.
I LOVE PHILIPPINES!!
AND
I LOVE JAPAN!!
Oh dear, I am such a happy person.
*poses proudly*

if you seem confused about who Mamegu was...
she refers to herself as Mamegu twice in that entry,
and a birthday cake here is typically rectangular (for more shares!)
i guess she's used to the round cakes for birthdays.
damn! time to send some dried mangos to her place ASAP ! XD
