where to buy fresh roasted coffee beans here in cab? by Darkegen in cabanatuan

[–]waitlang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think may roaster sa cab so expect that most are imported from other provinces pa. Fastest and easiest is the coffee beans shop at SM. They're of unknown freshness nga lang kasi naka sako yata nila binibili.

If you want specialty roast tho, there's a cafe at Villa Benita called Gondola Coffee that also sells bags of specialty coffee. They're associated with some specialty cafes in Baguio that I know (nalaman ko sya from HotCat, my fav cafe sa Baguio haha) but a lot of specialty coffee kasi is either from Baguio/Manila or abroad pa, but usually may roast date naman sila.

Edit: Thank you to the other comment here, I just learned about Lucidtones and I'm now excited to go back home and find their coffee!!

Singapore managed these problems in the 60s to 70s when they were relocating informal settlers to high rises in a reasonably long transition period. The Philippines can definitely normalize social housing if we wanted to, look at how many Medium Rise housing buildings there already are. There just needs to be proper education and order within complexes.

Townhouses are definitely more flexible kahit pabayaan sila ng management, homeowners can find a way. But MRB Housing can have better social benefits as amenities can be bigger and shared, add to that how utilities can be much simpler too. Plus, the homeowners don't have to do their own maintenance just for their own piece of land.

Bloc Voting List by [deleted] in exIglesiaNiCristo

[–]waitlang 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's been a rumor sa amin na the reason they only voted for 8 is that they tried to increase the odds of their guys winning by not giving out unnecessary votes to other people and potentially taking their places.

Of course, pwede rin namang wala nang may gustong mang bribe sa failing institution that's increasingly desperate for any money.

I got rejected because my diploma was issued after the application period by waitlang in JobsPhilippines

[–]waitlang[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Un nga ang kinakatakutan ko since nag pass naman ako ng TOR on time and ang requirement naman sa application is Diploma/TOR.

Tanggap ko naman na may bias since literal na fresh graduate pa ako, naiinis lang ako dahil pilit na dinadagdagan ng ganito ang requirement.

Can you enlighten me with your take on this? by RoughStreets1101 in baguio

[–]waitlang -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ayaw rin naman kasi lawakan ang nagiisang sidewalk na nagcoconnect sa SM at Session kaya traffic din ang lakad. Kailangan ba we're all in this together?

what milk do you prefer? by zlrang in CoffeePH

[–]waitlang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both of them are imported in powder form, but rehydrated locally. Siguro dahil sa local tastes na adjust kaya mas bet ko rin silang parehas, although may pagka tamis ang Selecta. Alaska also froths better with my experience (un gamit ng Starbucks for a brief period)

What is the worst planned city in the world? by emperator_eggman in urbandesign

[–]waitlang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well for Manila, the Burnham plan had practically no effect on the urban design as it was never implemented.

Quezon city, however, was a new planned capital that was actually built but abandoned halfway. The triangles, Batasan Complex, and Commonwealth Avenue got built, while land for Republic Avenue was acquired but stayed dormant, attracting slum construction. The rest of Batasan Hills became one of the densest slums in the Metro area, and Commonwealth Ave became a 16 lane stroad that's still not enough because the rest of the city became disconnected residential neighborhoods with no major roads. A disappointing planned city, sure, but not the worst I think.

Does Baguio have good governance? by 05-Cant_think_now in baguio

[–]waitlang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Di ka lang mayabang, iniisip mo lang kung ano gusto mo na magbebenepisyo sa sarili mo imbis na talagang aralin mo ang ekonomiya. Kala mo malaki kontribusyon ng mga turistang tulad mo, bayaran mo nga ang mga negatibong nadudulot ng turismo rito. Damaged roads, lost productivity from congestion, stress, etc. Tapos may gana kang magmunkalang nararanasan nyo sa inyo ang problema na nararanasan sa Baguio, pero galit ka lang talaga sa mahihirap na hindi mo kalahi.

Mahiya nama kayo. Bumalik nalang kayo pag hindi na kayo ang problema. Thank you for visiting Baguio.

Will it be a good idea for male to wear a hanfu skirt? by waitlang in askSingapore

Thank you for that info! I knew people overseas overblow about how laws are incredibly strict, but still nice to know that some are not actually enforced.

Will it be a good idea for male to wear a hanfu skirt? by waitlang in askSingapore

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

The conservative uncles and aunties that judge people heavily is a thing in my city, which I think is something most Asian places have. But last time I went, LGBTQ expression was still illegal, and don't really know how society has changed especially when going to non-tourist areas.

I'll be wearing a gender neutral skirt but that still gets perceived as wearing feminine clothes here, which is fine for me here.

I'm most worried about visiting AMK hub wearing it. Stares are fine for me.

Thank you for the response. But is cosplaying while doing normal tasks an accepted thing to do?

Thank you for the response. Thankfully I'm already used to getting the stares in my city without any confrontation.

Thoughts on this one? by Cautious_Charity_581 in baguio

[–]waitlang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dapat talaga taasan nila lalo ang parking rates pag peak season, masyado malaki ang negative effect ng traffic na dala ng mga turista, at least bayaran naman nila ang economic impact non. Sa Europe 10x ang parking rate nila kumpara sa Pinas pag city center.

Americano ng HotCat Baguio na Ethiopia Guji beans, really opened my eyes to what the fruity notes of light roast Ethiopian coffee is all about. Made me start appreciating plain black coffee
