this is a really good post..i grew up in minglanilla till i was 15 and moved to the united states and every time (year) i go back home(cebu) a lot changes it gets more crowded, new building,new people etc. I think our country is growing to fast. Minglanilla is not the old quiet town it was use to be which i liked now its like Cebu city. As you mentioned the youth now a days is un believable i cant even explain it i can talk about this topic all day but my point is that we need to fix our growing problems.
