My whole family is in the Philippines (except for my mum), I was born here though and only go back once a year (used to be twice but we seemed to slow down on the trips).

My mum was born in Mindanao and my family lives in Davo.

Opps, I should probably put my name in the profile thing.

I'm Dom.
Yeap I like it over there, very different to Australia. My grandma owns a large fuel trucking cooperation along with a few other things. My uncle was kidnapped and held for a $1m USD ransom 10 years ago. After she paid half, they never kept their part of the deal and he was never seen again. So now I can't travel anywhere without a body guard (who doubles as a driver) for my own safety, as I said.....very different to Aus lol.

I bought my PAM off timezone, from someone in USA. It was second hand, but it came looking brand new, was happy with that purchase.

This is my collection:

My guess is that most Panerai's have a black face, with only a handful with a white.

Oka,

Nagkita kami ni Jay (jcatral14) sa NJ on my way to visit my parents sa NY nuong Huwebes. Sandali lang kaming nagkwentuhan dahil si Jay eh marami pang wawaldasing salapi sa pagsa-shopping Ako naman ay hinihintay ng mga pamilya ang pagdating at mag-kakainan. Next time susugurin ka namin dyan dahil dito masyadong malamig
