Here is a funny for the week. So I was on my way to the post office (it is less than a five minute walk from the office on a busy road so I just went by myself) and I saw a police officer on the side of the road. I asked him what time the post office opened just to be sure and he said 8:00 so I was fine. I mailed my letters and was on my way back when he yelled to me to ask me if I found it, I gave him a thumbs up but then he waved me over. He was directing traffic into city hall. He asked me where I was from and then asked if he could take a picture with me. He whipped out his cell phone right in the middle of the road and we took a selfie. For some reason, I don't think that would fly in the United States. He was nice though and I was on my way. We always joke that we are going to cause a crash one day. When we walk down the street all the drivers just stare as they drive by. Everybody stares! It was really weird at first but I am getting used to it. I think we are six of about two dozen expats that live in all of Pasig. They always yell, "hey joe!" to the boys but they never really yell at the girls don't worry, they just stare haha
