    Medyo elevated yung area. You will notice that there is a change in elevation from that area towards Porac proper. Besides, the Ayalas wouldn’t plan a big development like this if the area is prone to flooding.

    Sent our driver to the LTO today to have a car stenciled which i though was pretty straightforward since I've had this done before with no ish. Turns out no.

    kaso may portions ng porac na binabaha.
    AFAIK, medyo pricey na si Alviera (around 15K to 17K per square i think); you'll be able to find a nice farm lot at a good price although of course you'll have to deal with your own security and perimeter.

    To give an idea, lots in subdivisions between CSFO and Angeles will sell between 5K to 10K per sq.m. When i started buying a few years ago, it was at a between 2.5K to 6K per sq.m.

    Also renewed today at a nearby LTO office bro. The stencil guy was a careet tambay there so it took him <5 minutes. Baka baguhan yung gumawa nung inyo?

    Alviera's so pricey. Looks great but is there a good hospital nearby? Pampanga also seems a lot hotter than Batangas or Cavite.

    mr. google says phases 1, 2 and 3 are sold out and phase 4 has only a few left.

    best and nearest hospital will be the Medical City inside clark.

    now for the bad trip.

    just got home at 3am. inabot ako ng 2am sa hospital. my 80 y.o. aunt who lives with my mom had a mild stroke yesterday afternoon. confined and under observation for a few days pero hindi naman na slurred ang speech nya kanina mga 10pm. ctscan indicates a very small clot on the frontal lobe, same size daw ng pin head. she's a spinster and the only niece and nephew who looks after her are my sister and me. badtrip talaga mga pinsan ko kahit isang aspirin man lang e walang maàasahan.

    That is the confirmation of a major service outage, the resumption of which could not be determined. Normally, pag sayo lang may problem, sasagutin nila yan. I am with Globe, same modus during major down days. I have learned to deal with service disruption, para iwas bad trip

    May mga tao talagang walang pakialam. Hope your aunt recovers fully.

    Only 15-20 minutes away. Pretty good, even faster access than most Metro Manila hospitals.

    Hope your aunt recovers fully bro. Unfortunately mukhang ganyan talaga pag alam na may ibang sasandalan (ikaw).

    The phase 1 of Alviera (lot only) is already sold out. We got it at a discount when my wife worked for Ayala before. Phase 2 (house and lot) may still have some units for sale but you can check with Avida to be sure. As per Avida, land value have gone up 30% since 2016. It was around 10k per square meter when we signed up to get a lot.


    On a different note, I was stuck in bad traffic yesterday at east service road. Around 5pm, the traffic towards the C5 toll booth was already near the new Shell station so I decided to take the east service road. It was a wrong move as it took me an hour just to reach the Bicutan interchange.

    Yup. Traffic was really bad yesterday along East Service Rd southbound from C5Ext to Bicutan. Ang daming trucks.

    I actually witnessed that traffic you've experienced as I was returning from the south.

    Traffic on EDSA from QC has been getting bad the past few days. Probably because school is out so most cars going to the CBDs find their way to EDSA faster.

    Yep, Medical City Clark would be the nearest.

    Pampanga is hot, but it is dry hot (so talagang tarik ang araw). So far for me it has been quite bearable really so long as im in the shade (and my car has covered parking at home).

    Napagalitan ako ng VP ng isang branch

    I covered for my boss kasi we was off sick. I feel bad because I take pride in my attention to detail, I got confused and my error had a huge impact on them. First time this happened in my 9 yrs at the company.

    I think this is a sign

    But the branch VP was still nice because she messaged me personally and not through copy all. Though I am sure she already talked to my boss kasi napagsabihan na din ako ng boss ko.

    for others it is an opportunity to learn and be better. steel becomes stronger when forged.
