mataas kasi ang demand pag mid autumn festival.. kaya tumataas ang presyo.. alam nila na kahit mahal yan.. bibilhin pa din yan nang mga chinese.. also minsan mas mahal pa yung packaging lalo na pag galing sa 5 star hotels.. parang fruitcake din yan pag pasko..
Editor's Pick: The Best Mooncakes In Manila 2 21 | Metro.Style
Hongkong MX Mooncakes PH nga daw ang the best.
It's so hard during ghost month. Majority of my clothes are black and we're not supposed to wear black during ghost month![]()
^yung akin lang... small things. parang yung "bawal matulog ng basa ang buhok" or yung "bawal mg-S** sa loob ng car" (Tsikot forum tayo kaya kailangan car related, hehehe)
or a lot of local buildings technically does not have a 13th floor (naalala ko sa Singapore pinag-aagawan yung 13th floor kasi swerte)
I also have a Pinoy friend who pushed so hard to open their business last week (wag lang tamaan ng "ghost month")
in my case, when we purchased our car, I specifically told our agent na I'm not releasing a car during the "Ghost Month" and naintindihan nya naman since matumal daw talaga bentahan nila during that month.
my wife's best friend - also buying a car this year doesn't believe in it kaya she'll get the car whenever her license allows her to do it (matagal na kasing expired license nya)
ghost month.
many years ago,
we noticed a significant drop in hospital census during ghost month.
today, wala nang drop drop...
This one. I was in Jakarta once during Ramadan, I did not fast even though my Indonesian colleagues were. I tried to "go along" by foregoing lunch but while they appreciated the gesture, they said you are Christian, you don't need to participate. They did bring me along at night to the board room where they had lots of food
Haha like the character in the first The Mummy movie. He was wearing different necklaces of different religions. First time he saw the mummy, he tried which one would work. Filipino catholics like to mish mash with superstitions/pamahiins. They pick what they want & what suits them. "Wala naman masama e."
Yup. Just like fasting/abstinence during Lent.
