Local internet cafe story

 

 

 

One of the famous branch internet cafe in cebu

 

When I pass by in front of the internet cafe i could see many people inside.

 

 

Inside there are 160 computers , but i can't see any vacant computer 

 

 

there are a lot of customers inside

 

the hands of the boys are quickly moving .

 

when i asked the counter, "how long could i possibly stay and play inside?"

 

she answered, "maybe 2 hours"

 

 

what is the game all about?

 

The name of the game is "DOTA", one of the famous internet games in cebu

 

it is similar with LOL, a famous korean internet games

 

 

 

 

This game is consist of 16 player and the game is played for 2 hours 

 

 

The internet cafe uses monobloc chairs, it is a plastic chair

 

In korea internet cafe doesn't use plastic chair, because it is uncomfortable

 

koreans thinks that the air produce by the air conditioner isn't enough

the internet's supply of internet connection is an old system

 

10 years ago in korea, we were using 512kbyte and T1(3 times faster than 512kbyte)   

 

 

inspite of the many customer inside the cafe there is still a thief who can go inside the cafe and steal something

 

maybe the thief came early morning and steal 

 

their are many customer inside the cafe, may be because it has lesser amount of money to be paid(10 pesos/1 hr)

 

 

next time, i will visit another branch of internet cafe and i will share to you another story

 

when i went out the cafe. while i was walking along the road, i passed by a small flower shop

 

when the owner saw my camera, he said, "take me a picture"

 

 

after i took the picture, i bought one bouquet of flowers, it costs 50 pesos

 

If you buy a  bouquet of flowers in ayala, it would cost you around 1000 pesos.

 

there are a lot of places outside ayala where you can buy a  bouquet of flowers cheaper 

 

This  bouquet of flowers has lesser quality compared to that in ayala but when i brought it back to my wife at home, she was very happy  

 

This picture is an extra but i consider this as one of the significant pictures of this story

 

This is what filipinos call a "banana cue."

 

this is how a banana cue is made. first the banana is burnt to have a hardened shell

 

and then it is dipped in sugar syrup. second it is fried until the sugar becomes crunchy.

 

finally, it is then skewered on a bamboo stick. 

 

This fruit is known as "rambutan" which is similar with the chestnut bur in korea

 

This fruit is exported for a longer time, but In korea, it is possible to be eaten and you just keep that in the freezer.

 

This fruit costs 150pesos / 1kg 

 

this fruit is known as "lanzones"

 

It has the same price with rambutan.

 

how to eat the rambutan?

 

it is so easy. just press the fruit then when the upper part is slowly opening 

 

use your fingers to open it widely then it is ready to eat. 

 

 

while you are eating the rambutan. if you feel the seed in your mouth which is inside the fruit,

 

just quickly throw the seed out of your mouth 

 

Right now i have already visited the local interet cafe and tasted rambutan.
