Good afternoon! I went out this morning while I was mylotting. Yesterday I was able to find a computer store that can fix one phone of my sister, while we were having our date with my classmates. My sister requested me to accompany her to the mall so at 9am, off we went. When we arrived there the mall was still closed. We asked the man wiping the glass walls what time the mall opens. He said 10AM, so we had to sit outside. My sister's phone's battery was changed. I also let my iPhone be checked and the technician said it is the power button and not the battery that has the problem. Since it is always hot, I would prefer staying in the mall like other people do. (There were about a hundred waiting this morning for the doors to open.) I believe the mall is full again and the centralised aircon is working triple time.

The Apple products are no more as reliable as they used to be it seems. Our Mall opens at 8:30 in the morning.

@rakski Swiss people wake up early and go to bed early. In the past Apple was good quality, now they only care to earn money, not to make the customers happy.

Wow, early opening! Here mall opens at 10am. You are right with apple products. My nephew bought a MacBook and it has been a year when the motherboard was ruin. And to fix it, you will need almost the same amount of money like you are buying the new one. My acer laptop is two years old and his is almost one.

No one goes to the park anymore? I'm probably one of the few who don't go "malling" or hang around the malls unless for a specific reason.

i guess it depends on where you live, like say baguio vs pasay city, or the old rich sprawling places like forbes park?

we have a Rizal park here but it has no more trees therefore it is so hot. malls have aircon so it is the rendezvous of those who wish to cool themselves with. me, i like malls if i have something to buy, but otherwise, home is my favorite place to stay this summer.

the 10am opening of the mall is just right so the centralized air-con is already giving out cool air. i do not have a headache when i know that i am already inside the mall. maybe the headache in you is because you do not know what you should buy? like shoes and clothes?

I suppose if the only place to cool down is the mall I could spend some time there. Otherwise I'm like, no way to the mall.
