      Wow, I noticed how LOOOOOONG your hair is (beautiful). I had noticed that the Philippina here in the states have longer hair than there in the PI (you being an exception). Asked about this and was told that they cut the hair short there because its HOT (like you, lol). Any truth to this? Input?

      I also heard that Boy (BOI) is a common name in the Philippines due the WWII as well due to troops calling young ones Boy and it becoming a Name. I used to have an older friend (he was in 70's) called Boi and it was a fun thing to call him "Hey Boy". :)

Now I have a relationship with a new Filipina who by way of family member. Long story short can I ever marry her in the Philippines?

    Excellent, great job on this one Pea. People are gonna love it. I saved a kitten from a flash flood and Tornado. It was about 2 years ago while working in North Dakota. The house was shaking so I looked out the window. In the floodwater running though the yard I saw something moving. Iran outside in my underwear and jumped in the water. I puled her out just before she went into the abyss. She was so tiny and to show her gratitude, she gave me 5 kittens 12 weeks later. Best part of the story, after she weened the kits, she packed her bags, AND DUMPED ME, lol. Wow, am I that hard to live with? hummmm. On her behalf, I have to say. She left me with the most beautiful litter of kittens I have ever seen. I kept 2 and the other 3 went to great families.

    You have such a good heart, always helping people and the animals. Watching so many animals in the street that are in poor health and starving is one of the hardest things for me to see when I visit there in the Philippines. I bought some snacks to toss to the hungry dogs when I saw them as I walked around, and was surprised to see that every time they ran away. I guess they are used to people throwing stones, not food, it breaks my heart.

    Every culture has different ways of showing respect but I really enjoyed the way it’s done in the Philippines even though after all these years I still don’t have it all figured out. I remember walking down the street in Caviti City and people would say Hi Joe. Took me a little while to connect the dots and realize it was GI Joe. I actually liked being called that. The packaging requires a person to think small. Only buy what you need. Good luck with your cat. For a girl small in size you have a really big heart. Nice video as always.

      You may consider lunch as a way to achieve some of your goals. It's not unusual, here in the States, to raise money for charitable causes by auctioning your time at lunch. If you have 6 kittens to find homes for, shouldn't lunch with you be considered? I know there are families that would adopt a feline, if you had lunch or coffee with them. For larger donations to your chosen charities, maybe consider dinner. You choose the restaurant, they pay the tab and donate a set amount. You have the personality for it, just imagine if you could raise several hundred dollars for groceries for hungry kids. Coffee with Pea and friends, lunch with Pea and her chaperone for $100 USD, "if you think about it".

      @@coreyg6660 when people from all over the world go to the Philippines to get healthy, maybe the West would be able to learn from them. In every third world country where real medicine does not exist there is always a “healer” in the village. When I was in the mountains of Afghanistan my interpreter spent a months salary to buy a potion from the imam made from deer sperm for his brother in the ICU. These secrets to healing have been handed down for thousands of years…but It also didn’t work.
