Angeles City (Balibago) Tips

[The Lord]

No la bro. Its a joke. I know. Im ok with it. And u can use tht on me. I am perfectly ok

U r soon to be a veteran in AC with so many flights booked. Do i dare to offend you?

U must soon start sharing ur tips n tricks with us.

Actually, we were quite disappointed wen u got d runner. We felt we sorta let u down by not helping u tht night.

We r glad u will soon grt Honorary PR.

After 2 wonderful trips i had no hesitation to shift base from GZ to AC thus buying the many flights this year, though i still favors GZ in terms of general living.

I can still remember the only other similar feat was in 1993 in Balai w a pornstar quality babe.And to hv it repeated in AC after almost 20 yrs later in record time really took me by surprise.

the unexpected hasty detour from Macau for my virgin AC landing in Oct. Then my first barfine got a runner, followed by continuous good tarma, gfe sessions. seems like it's destiny for me to become PR there w Bro Z.

Is there a Mongering God?


The aeroplane thing long forgot already n u helped me w booking of airtickets, right?, pls don't take it to heart. i mentioned in jest as a gathering joke.
i overcame much tougher conditions being a loneranger.

Angeles City skyline growing in 2012!

With around a dozen hotels currently under construction on the entertainment strip alone (and many recently completed), the Angeles City skyline as seen in the following images is clearly continuing its upward development.

Land prices rising
Empty or abandoned lots are being snapped up and developed into commercial and residential projects causing land prices along the entertainment strip to rise to as much as Php30,000 - Php50,000 per square meter.

Billion-dollar GGLC development
Behind SM Clark mall, nearly a stone's throw away from the entertainment strip, the Global Gateway Logistics Center, a massive billion-dollar 200-hectar development project funded by Kuwaitis is fast-tracking its infrastructure development to make way for large commercial and industrial projects including multi-million dollar aviation, healthcare, educational and hotel projects.

8-story threshold being broken
Although hardly any are passing the 8-story threshold (around the maximum height limit without a costly foundation due to the area's soft soil), with the resumed construction of the Penthouse condo-hotel, which should be Angeles City's tallest tower at 14 floors, this will just be a matter of time.

How will 2013 look like?
Many more construction projects, primarily focused around the entertainment strip are in the planning and therefore today's skyline will look very different from the ones angelescity.com will be posting in 2013.

Yes not forgetting our datuk datou.

Ya, the bonding, brought us all closer.

Someone just up my points last night with 6 points. Didn't leave his nick. But judging from it, it should be from Bro soundguy.

Thanks for the points.

[etsys]

And since I up LLSC and soundguy before . cannot up soon so it is for almost everybody in this thread

And datou : smart girls learn to change name every season .. (re: Joyce) .. as from my past years in AC ... and PG ..

better to post a pic .. or snap a general description .. and when mummy shifts bars .. the girls too follow mummy .. after all, most bars, mummy controls the girls ..

The Lord: well, I wish the Boardwalk days are back in Manila .. with less fear of police harassment and all easy going .. I could wish though i guess ...

[unclelimk]

Bro, guess even with the photo, it will be tough for ppl to really recognize the BG after a few drink and with the lightings.

Been cheonging AC over the past 2 years regularly, after discovering it accidentally.

Anyway, to cut a long story short, will have another go the 1st 2 weeks of Feb, including V-day there, so who knows may get bitten by cupid this time round... Hahaha..

In general, nothing much in AC except the bars. Pretty much everything evolves around them. But, if it wasn't for them, life would be pretty boring!

This time round, will be at Lewis Grand & ABC. Although more expensive, I think might as well enjoy since it's a break!

As for cheonging, the girly bars now seem to lose their appeal. If anything, I'll just hang out at Blue Nile. Looking to spend more time at clubs or lounges. Going to be checking out Hacienda, High Society etc... Definitely to Pink Lady and Julianas. Cross my fingers! Heehee...

If any fellow cheongsters are interested to meet up there, just give a shout. Singaporeans Unite!

My 2 pesos

.... I discovered AC accidentally too via The Great Lord & Master PHENOM n his exceptional FRs

..... Good ur going again. Enjoy, hv a blast... But dun get bitten by cupid in the Bars....

..... Dun say nothing much in AC dude.... Lotsa things to do... If only ur prepared to... U can shop.... You can even take the AC jeepney to San Fernando and visit Pampanga Shopping paradise... You can say hello to Mt pinatubo...you can do a detour to Olongapo, Subic, bario Baretto... You can do charity as well like our esteemed bros Ziebart and datou


Nope angeles city proper has much more than the adult entertainment strip.. Pretty much everything does not revolve around the bars


..... Go for Lewis Grand... Its lovely... I prefer it anyday to ABC.... ALlthough ABC HAS A PRETTY DECENT NEW millenium tower


..... Dude u need to be a lot more courteous n ur posts before u say Singaporeans unite..... Ur attitude a bit out of tune on this thread.... Sounds a bit ya ya to me..
