Fluffho!! You need to go! If anything, your life will be more enriched by the breaking away of routine and experiencing something new for a short period of time. And this woman is FAMILY! She needs you and wants you to be in her wedding. Are there no vegetables in the Philippines? Man, I need to go!

Ummmmm.... Without a doubt... GO.... and take me with you!
I could do with a bit of sun after all this fuckin rain we've had.
Reasons you should go... Cos I said so!
Reasons you shouldn't go... Cos you'll miss talkin to me on here!
Hmmm... maybe you shouldn't go.... I'd miss you t.... Errr... the fish would starve and the dog would go postal and start headbutting whoever was lookin after him.
Still... If you did go, you could buy lots of cheap things, bring em all back to the good old USA and flog em for a profit.
As for eatin stuff... Get a good old beefburger down you. If our burger joints are anything to go buy, they use cats and not cows anyway!
Now I'm sure you'll take everythin I have said VERY seriously... So it was worth writn it... LOL
Oh, and don't think I didn't see what you wrote... Croatia to win cos you liked their bloody name indeed... ;)
Later Bella.

Don't go. It would be a living hell if you do. Why go? Just to be a bridesmaid and be at a wedding for one day and then be hot, bored, biten by bugs and burned by the sun for the rest of the time. Fake sick or something. Or actualy get sick. Act sad that you can't go and ask her to record the wedding and mail a copy of the tape to you.

Nope... I didnt know you rashed up in the sun hun! A thousand apologies!!!
You could wear dark shades and a long trenchcoat. You'd still look sexy... and also like a spy outa the Man from Uncle
As for the vegetarian thingy, have a veggie burger then! I hear they are high in salady goodness!

Okay, I'm surprised you put "giving beggars money" as a pro. I mean, if I knew this about you I would have asked for cash a long time ago! But, you said there's cool ass jungles ... get to stay in a resort ... Lemme ask you this: how long do you have to be there? And 16 hours on a plane does sound sucky. I wouldn't go just for that reason. But then again, she's family. What? You're NEVER going to go again? I wouldn't wait until you're old and creaky ... then you'll hate it even more.

jack - lol. u arent a cute little asian kid with a sihrt hes probably been wearing since the day he was born. so i aint givin u diddly shit!! plus ur gonna have shitloads of money after u write that movie so :P greedy bastard! 16 ohur flight DOES suck. as for how long i would stay, as long as i want. probably 2-4 weeks, knowing me, 2 considering there wouldnt be much i could do there. my cousins r all several yeras younger than me. not to mention the weather SUCKS right now. its so hot right there, to make it worse its incredibly humid (con of bein in the jungle)
i definitely DO plan on going one day, but in good weather! that and hopefully with a friend or 2, make it more fun ya know? too bad theres no nightlife there. then again its my fault i dont like asians but still, SUCKS.
randall - u notice how the costumed guys are always accompanied by a regular joe? thats so that if they faint they can be saved!! u know if ur sick and u hafto upke, u hafto puke in the costume? ur not allowed to take it off (u know, itll ruin the magic).

I say you go. Here's why. Airplanes are air conditioned and on a 16 hour flight, you'll probably get 2 or 3 meals and a couple movies! (Maybe you can request Evil Dead or something. Lol. Doubt it.)
There ARE vegetables in the Phillipines, so you'll be okay there. Here's a bit of info you may not know, ALL GRANDMAS DO THAT! It's not just yours, it's min, it's my girlfriend's, it's my friends. All grandmas try to force you to eat food that you don't want to eat! Telling them does no good, they'll still try to insist on feeding you. You just have to say you're full or not feeling well. (That's what I do when I've got a grandma trying to shove food down my throat.)
To avoid the sun, you can go into vampire mode and travel by night.
Maybe there will be a nice asian boy at the club, you won't know until you look!

You'd be surprised how many of em are women. I actually dated one of em once... She was cute!
Generally they only do 20 minute stints and then a replacement takes over cos it's so hot in there. The illusion stops when you travel the network of tunnels beneath the 'Magical' kingdom.
Puke in the the costume? Then there'd be an extra dwarf for Snow White to clean up after... Pukey!!!

You don't like Asians? Your avatar is of that dude from Pokemon or some shit ... it's anime anyway. And why you givin' the Asians your free money when my poor white ass is right here? You don't like whiteys either? :D Well, hell ... no night life in the Philippines? What's the TV like? Is that one of those countries where you have like 2 channels, and one is 24 hour rice paddy action? This seems like one of those situations where if you go, you'll hate it the whole time ... and if you stay home, you won't regret it because you know you would have hated it the whole time.
Stay home. Talk with us! :D

lol so many questoins. do i like asians?? thats a tough question. i will say dating wise, a big NO. friend wise.. even then thats tough. i should say i dont ilke azns but thats a lot of explaining
NO my avatar is not from pokemon but it is anime. i still like anime...
and im giving them money cuz those kids dont hav anything!! lol unless something strange has happened since the last time i went but when i was there it was 24 pesos :$1 whereas now its 50pesos :$1 so its gotten worse. that and lots of gangsters and druggies lately.
nightlife. again, the asian thing. i dont like lil asian boys.
as for the tv... all id do is end up watching cartoons. they have soap operas, LOL exactly like we hav here, except obviously in tagalog. they play the same music we do but im not sure they get all the chanells.
but yeh. i mean theres a lot of fun aspects but theres a lot of shitty ones, mainly being the weather. i most ilkeyl WILL just stay and chat with u fuc.... i mean friends :D
lol

If i was you i would go. you would be crazy to pass up a chance to travel. the Philippines is a fantastic place. Who knows you might even find someone interesting, a little summer romance?

Afraid We Kicked Croatias ass in the end, and we're gona Kick Portugals Asses tonight :D
As for going or not......you should go, I guarantee if you dont, you'll regret not going, even if you do forget, it'll keep popping back up "shit I should have gone" "shit I wish I'd have gone" in the back of your mind. Also every time you're reminded of your aunt, or see a picture of here, that'll remind you of the day you chose not to be part of, sorry if it dont sound nice, but we all think you should go!!
btw get some high strength sunblock.
