    I only ride taxis and FX vans in Manila. Very rarely I would ride a bus/jeep unless I have no choice.

    I'd never choose to ride Manila jeepneys either.
    Used to avoid Manila tricycles too

    I don't mind tricycles here and do use them often.

    I'll never forget going to Apo Island in a small banca in choppy seas and getting soaking wet. Great fun.

    Wheres Habal-habal,thats my preference



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    Next time I do a poll, I'll include 'other' in the options just in case I forget something.
