* Wearing of shorts, crop top, sleeveless, slippers
* Long hair for male
MANIBELA magkakasa ng libreng sakay sa Pasko at Bagong Taon

"One time, my pinoy nephew from NZ got highlights from David’s Salon. His stylist asked ‘does your school allow this? He just said ‘yeah?’ In NZ, they are blonde, asian hair you name it. You can have any colour you want. He did not explain further. Just goes to show how backwards our schools are for still focusing on such mundane things such as color of hair??!?"
