....I keep coming back to Manila....."

Comment from: longwaybye
"Count me in! Im a Manila fanatic too. Some of my friends wonder why I make it a point to spend several days in Manila, while they hurry back towards their provinces.

It was in Manila where I became a man. It was where I made that transition from high school to a college independent. It just holds too much memories, and for me the best years of my life was during that time. I always compare my life's events with what happened during those years of my life.

Time seemed stuck in those years, so when I hear a song Id usually place it into old, as in the time of my father and backward, or  modern as in elementary and Highschool, and Id usually categorize the songs during my college as the current hits. So,it brings confusion when I say' "Bago lang yan kanta yan'" because what I mean is I was already in college when that song broke the charts, and college was sooo long ago.

And of course, those songs, and much of everything in fact are associated with Manila, the Manila of my time.
