let's see?...just like any other tourists, don't be too flashy, know the nearest emergency contact #'s like US embassy, police stations; ensureyour shots are up to date, have cash in handy in case u get hospitalized and save all records for insurance reimbursments, be prepared to pay the overstay taxsomething like that (immigration purposes)...first time i was there, i paid the gate for overstaying (more than 21 days) just google it for any changes. btwthis only applies to US citizens. understand the local language and customs, maintain situational awareness and watch ur six from time to time. the only girlsthat would really dig your flashy gestures are the ones desperately needing a quick ticket away. just be yourself, frankly i don't dig those chicks i meeton nightouts, what do you expect from them brods you meet on such places? pretty much all them gals in the central region are almost the same. the clubs aresoaking in cigarette smokes so if you're a non smoker, i'd stay away from one, got me a bad migraine after an hour of stay there one time. live bandsare american idol worthy, in fact they're all over, i've seen a couple one time in bahrain and them guys got it going on!!! you could'nt tell thedifference from the original. driving is not really recommended to a degree where i'm so used to driving no less than 40mph. water sports and boating is amust, we rented an outrigger and went island hopping (it was actually a shortcut, instead of a long drive) in subic. have tried their local delicacy dilis(anchovy in brine) which is a restaurant worthy appetizer and ginebra (st michael beating the $h1t out of lucifer) that was some strong alcohol!bootlegged dvdsare all over, cd's and games, i don't think them games are US spec compatible. tiangge is a must should u wish to bring some back,cheap knock offproducts, don't overdo it though coz customs will be on yo *** when they see it (from what i heard). bring enough towelletes, coz u'll sweat all thosepounds off! wet ones, off, tylenol, and imodium. hydrate often, unless u enjoy heat stress or worse heat stroke! lastly, pix, pix and pix!

School? Or some hot chick? Maybe escaping a court date?
Taco Bell is nasty.
I ain't gonna front though. I lived on the dollar menu during my stay in SF.
The only decent Mexican joints I can think of are Mexicali and Tia Maria's.

^ You probably know this already but just in case...
The job market in the Philippines is the worst I swear. I know people with MBAs and PHDs who can't even find a high paying job.
I graduated with a degree in International Business and I secured a senior position at an IT company. My starting pay was $600/month (which is above averagefor a first job). I know a lot of people get paid less than that now. Call centers offer the highest starting pay, around $350-$450/month, graveyard shift.Part-time jobs can get you $150-200/month.
It's better to start your own business. *%$# working from 8:30-6:30pm, M-F.
