a sweaty afternoon in the philippines and the numbers that followed me

i landed here with two weird numbers in my head: 1731525 and 1608990723. no idea what they mean-maybe timestamps, maybe some glitch in the matrix, maybe just the universe trying to tell me to drink more water. it's 24.86°c right now, which feels like 25.33°c if you're walking around in jeans and a bad mood. the humidity is 74%, which basically means you're sweating in places you forgot you had. pressure's at 1015, so the weather app says it's 'stable,' but my hair says otherwise. i just checked and it's sticky and warm there right now, hope you like that kind of thing. if you get bored, manila and tagaytay are just a short drive away. someone told me that the best halo-halo is at *Razon's of Guagua, but i heard that the lines there can test your patience more than a delayed flight. i also overheard a local say that Maginhawa Street* is where all the cool kids eat, but another person warned me the parking situation there is a nightmare. i'm not sure who to believe, but i'll probably try it anyway. here's a little map to orient yourself:
