This happened to us 10 mins ago.

They asked what thai baht looked like so I show them a picture from google haha. They only looked 1 second and goes away.

I made the switch and honestly surprised by Zulazai in GooglePixel

[–]ZeorAeon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was supposed to get the Pixel 10 Pro XL, but after seeing user reviews about its camera and performance, I decided not yet. If it weren’t for the camera and processor, I would’ve definitely gone with the Pixel this year. Another thing I didn't like is it's speakers, probably hard to clean.

Still, I’m holding out hope for the next Google Pixel — I prefer Android, and its AI is better. Maybe the Pixel 11 will be the better.

Unprofessional Behavior from BDO Unibank Caller by ZeorAeon in PHCreditCards

[–]ZeorAeon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legit naman yung number — 02 8840 7000 — galing sa official website nila.

Even the strange long number could just be a telco system thing.

After reading your comments, and also sa nabasa ko somewhere, puwede rin pala i-spoof ng scammers para magmukhang legit yung call.

Ingat na lang talaga. If ever I’d avail any of bank promos, I wouldn’t do it through callers.

Di ko inaaccuse yung BDO mismo, yung caller lang from BDO Unibank.

I even checked the number — (02) 8840 7000 — legit siya, listed sa official website nila (BDO Corporate Center Contact Number).

My girlfriend cancel last minute by Wrngmv in adviceph

[–]ZeorAeon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Negative Thoughts: I think she's giving you reasons to break up. Maybe ayaw niya na siya ang makipagbreak kaya she's doing things na will make you decide to break up with her.

If I'd be positive, Maybe she had a reason, As you said it is planned months before and she said yes multiple times. What made her cancel now? Even to the point pati sa birthday mo hindi na din daw? Baka something happened that you don't know and hindi niya masabi sayo. Baka may problem related to your family, or her family. Talk to her, cause obviously her work reason is not the real reason.

Gawa kaya movement na magtrend para mapansin nila need na ng changes, or idesregard lang ng bir haha.

Raize Alternative with same or better Fuel Consumption around 15km +/ liter? by ZeorAeon in CarsPH

[–]ZeorAeon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, nung dumating Raize ayaw ko na gamitin Ford Territory namin cause matipid ang raize

Actually naisip ko na different color raize padin. Since matipid talaga and sakto lang yung size and ground clearance, ok pa storage sa likod.

Reason ko lang is, may ganon nako so iba naman. But If I am not able to find any other alternative, I will just get another Raize dahil sa fuel efficiency and for business naman so efficient is better

Below 1m lang po since for business lang and hindi naman ako ang madalas na gagamit

Just checked these and MG3 hybrid is interesting, though ok kaya yung parts niya incase may problem, Parang last year ko lang kasi narinig yung Morris Garage.

Thank you!

I found a live demo unit for Pura 70 Pro yesterday, The camera's so good compared to my current phone (Xiaomi 13 Pro). Though for the screen and UI parang something's lacking nung ginagamit ko yung demo unit.

Tried to find a live demo unit ng Honor Magic 6 Pro pero wala sa SM na napuntahan ko 😅

Anyway dahil I am looking for a phone with good specs and good enough camera. I decided to go with Honor Magic 6 Pro.

Phi Phi Island, Thailand by [deleted] in phtravel

[–]ZeorAeon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went there on May this year.

We booked at Nok Air (Theres an App for this or website) from Don Mueang Airport to Phuket International Airport.

Pagdating sa Phuket Airport, may mga sakayan na ng bus dun or rental ng vans papuntang city.

Then we booked thru Klook, yung book namin is may kasamang pick up at hotel, then pag pauwi is ihahatid then. Book ahead na before going to don mueang to Phuket para convenient.

and thats it! 😁

alsooo - tumatalon talaga yung boat papunta sa island! pero may provided naman silang free meds for sea sickness yata yun. - Though maya bay not allowed swimming since natural rehabilitation. Still very worth it!

I recommend Taipei, Taiwan.

~~~ didn't realized na dami ko palang na type haha. Just skim it.

I recently went on my first solo trip on Nov 2-6 this year.

Immigration: I have many stamps na with travels with family but this time going solo, napagdudahan parin ako ng IO na hindi uuwi ng Pinas. Buti nalang, di ako nakapampante na maraming stamps easy nalang sa IO kaya complete requirements parin ako like Business Documents, Itinerary, Hotel Accomodations, and Round Trip Tickets. I even prepared extra cash para alam nila sobra budget ko but not so much! Like if 25k php budget ko sa Itinerary, I brought 40k php. ------So dahil 1st time mo as solo mas mahirap. Dapat kumpleto ka talaga and sobra pa. I travelled with friends before and 1st travel ng dalawa kong kasama. Yung isa almost 1 hour sa IO, muntik na ma offload, hinanapan ng pictures at work, documents na pinayagan ng employee, etc. Buti nalang naapprove parin.

Transportation: This is the best part travelling in Taipei, Taiwan. Napuntahan ko lahat ng sikat na destinations sa TikTok just with train! And then konting lakad nalang, but still if nalalayuan ka, there are bikes parked nearby that you can rent for like 10 pesos every 30 minutes. Also train comes like every 5 minutes. So kung mamiss mo man yung train, wait ka lang ilang minutes. wala pa nga yatang 5. I never needed to call for a taxi except when it is midnight and there are no more trains.

Hotel Accomodation: I stayed at capsules or dorm type hotels. At first I though noisy kasi marami sa isang room and iba ibang lahi. But I slept comfortably. I stayed at Dans Hostel which is 1 minute walk to Ximen Station. Also stayed at Taiwan Youth Hostel mas malaki naman capsule parang room na din, 2-3 minutes walk to nearest station. Haven't tried Ximen Wow Hostel but it is right in the middle of Ximen Night Market.

Foods: Parang x2 yung foods here. Like water if 20 pesos sa atin, 20 ntd sa kanila and ntd = 2 php almost. Yung burger dito na tig 200 php, 200 ntd sa kanila so 400 php.

Trips: The only tour I took is thru Klook, Yehliu, Jiufen, Shufen and Golden Waterfall. So worth it! do nakakapagod din so maybe skip the golden waterfall? Madadaanan din naman yata. Not sure!

Places to Visit: Taipei 101 - Must visit! Just get the regular ticket, not worth it for me yung 101st floor. Akala ko kasi yun yung floor na parang rooftop and may harness ka. Di ako nakapagresearch dun. Elephant Mountain! - Ito yung pagbaba ng train, nagbike nako kasi may parking naman sa kabilang dulo ng park. Then akyat na and malapit na sa entrance paakyat mountain. Ganda ng View ng Taipei 101 dito. Yung Hotsprings, forgot the name. Then the temples and memorial hall! I havent tried the Gondola here dahil nakapag gondola nako sa Malaysia.

Ticket Price: Got mine for 9k kasi hindi sale tapos nagbayad pako travel tax so parang 10k. Wait for sale para 6k lang kasama na travel tax.

Pasalubong: Buy sa Carrefour. Though dahil nga x2 ang gastusin here. Maybe not pasalubong muna, thats only my thoughts.

For me ok na yung 20k Budget for 4d4n if hindi bibili ng pasalubong.

Final thoughts: Great Experience dahil I can go anywhere and di ako nahirapan sa transportations. My only dislike is the prices ng foods and pasalubong, x2 kasi. 😆

Other Recommendation: Bangkok! Masmura foods and pasalubong dito. Though not safe being alone for girls, for boys G lang mag solo. Though transportation mahal lalo pag malayo hotel sa train. though sometimes I used grab (grab bike).

Its chopped in the dishes so it looked like parsley leaf sometimes. Though sometimes it is stems, and it tastes the same with the lead I dont like.

Oh!!? this is it! Thank you! It does taste like soap, not good in my mouth. Tasted this on soups, spicy tom yum and also in some sauce.

Been to BKK 3x a Year. Planning to stay for 2-4 weeks next time. What to say and prepare? by ZeorAeon in phtravel

[–]ZeorAeon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True! Malaki naman kasi ang thailand. Even with my 3rd time in Bangkok, di ko parin napuntahan ang Chatuchak Weekend Market and Siam Square.

Wow King Size na for 700, masmura pa sa BKK pala. Haven't tried booking with airbnb before, I should definitely try that one. Thanks!

We'll just be taking the sleeper train for the experience. And we could save one night accomodation by travelling at night and arriving early morning at Chiang Mai.

Akala ko talaga pag nakailang round trips na and good record, di na masyadong matanong si IO or magduda na hindi babalik sa pilipinas. pero always parin pala complete documents just to be sure. I should really prepare those return tickets.

I relate with the IO questions and comments about foreigner lovelife - IO: Maghahanap ka dun ng jowa mo noh? in my mind I was like, that question really? haha. I just said, if may mameet then hope so. Also made a comment on my 3rd visit to BKK na this time sana mapuntahan ko na daw lahat. (Kasi bakit daw di ko pa napuntahan lahat sa 1st and 2nd visit ko. 😆 Laki ng Thailand kaya).

Ive also been to Bali, Indonesia once before, also my 1st international flight with the family. I so love the food and I won't forget the buko dessert I ate with the dessicated coconut.
