You know you grew up in MANILA when...

You laugh at words like KOKOTE.

Your yaya used to do your laundry and put it away for you.

You only drove to and from your prom/ball, otherwise you had a driver who drove you around.

You asked your prom date to accompany you THROUGH TEXT.

You found your prom date by going to a class soiree - and you played Funny Bones and Human Bingo until he decided to "court you" the next day.

Your driver grew out the nail in one pinky finger, and pissed in public beside your car.

You gave your driver P50 every time you made pahatid to a gimik.

Your driver went to Jollibee with his P50.

Although you think it's really jologs, you used to watch the variety shows your maids watched in their room.

You miss those days where you would go out with your friends to Manila's hotspots – Greenbelt, Embassy, Malate, and the Fort.

You know your way around Mega Mall. All 5 floors, A and B, plus basements.

You are familiar with the following brands: Colors, Molecules, Particles, Monnakiki, BNY Jeans, Oxygen, Petit Monde, and Pink Soda Blue Soda.

When Kamiseta put up their mystery model ads all over Metro Manila, you wondered who it was only to find out one normal day that, "Leche! Si Alicia Silverstone nasa EDSA naaa!"

You found out about the start of EDSA Dos via text or cars honking in your streets.

You were partly happy that the EDSA Dos rallies happened because WALANG PASOOOOOOOOK!

During EDSA Dos, you knew the cries of the MASA: "MIRIAM BALIW" and "TESSIE PROSTI"

Every night of rainy season, you would pray to God that the hurricane would go past signal #2 so that you could wake up in the morning to an AM radio station saying your school proclaimed WALANG PASOOOOOOOOOOOOK!

If you went to an all-girls' school, all your guy teachers were presumably gay.

If you went to an all-boys' school, all your guy teachers were presumably gay.

You know cellphones in Manila are way better than the ones here. Saan ka pa magpa-pass-a-load?!
