WAGI!

excerpts from the funniest email i've ever read at 2am

Filipino Conversational Dictionary
These are the words that are so unique and loaded in meaning that they will never find a direct translation in the English language. Forget traditional dictionaries. Keep this!!!

1. Achuchu ( A-chu-chu). This refers to the pointless insincerities being said during long, involved conversations about nothing at all.

2. Ano ( A-noh). The all-around, all-purpose word for everything.
(1) Pronoun in interrogation: Ano? (What)
(2) Noun: Where is your ano? (Where is your father/mother/dead-uncle's-second-cousin)
(3) Verb: Anuhin this.(Paint/kill/maim/castrate this.
(4) Adjective: This is so ano. (This is so pretty/big/astounding.)
(5) Interjection: Ano! (What the hell!)
(6) Substitute for genitalia: Did you ano your ano?

The use of ano is quite dangerous for the untrained ear, and must be put into the proper setting.

"Honey, the ano is too long, we have to cut it,"must be accompanied by the proper understanding of the context, as results may be critical to a couple's future.

and the winner is...

"Honey, when I first saw you, I made laglag brip, and was almost torpe. When I finally got the nerve to date you, I almost became indyanero, because I didn't think I had the right japorms. When you're around, I'm kilig, when you're not, I get gigil. You may think all this is achuchu, kaekekan, just checheboreche, but in truth, my love, I'm so ano with you."

TRULY WAGI!

takas entry

so many pix to post! so many people to thank for wonderful times (in gazebos, model units, and wedding receptions; via text messages and delayed christmas cards, hugs and kisses and laughing about wrong movie choices).

but no, duty calls.
hanging out with different barkadas i've known since grade school, i'm filled with warm fuzzies. it's the people you love and who love you back that truly matter, and it's love in all forms and stages and i thank the spirits for it.

back to work, idiot!

shellshocked.

1. c/o the dentist.
i've always always hated going to the dentist. the smells, the sounds (shoot me now) and the sensations. my feet always go up in the air when i'm in pain, complete with babylike ungol. this is the first time i've gone to a dentist that i'm not related to, so i was extra-careful to super brush my teeth and bactidol-blast my mouth. on the plus side, they don't ask as many questions as relatives do, when they've got their tools in your mouth.
i was only on the chair for 1.5 hours tops, but i felt so drained (gripping the seat for dear life and all) that i fell asleep when i got home and woke up 3 hours later.

2. c/o hugh laurie.
because gawd almighty i think i'm getting a crush on him. i mean, i've always respected him and liked him, but now i think it's hitting the h**ny level. i don't get it! how--and when--did this happen? when he was shoving a needle up her butt? when i heard his may-i-drool-now accent and his dry humor? egad.

3. c/o one skinny guy.
because i'm going to miss him so, so, so, so, much. so much more than i ever thought i would, after all these years. or maybe because of them.
tama bang mag-group hug sa parking lot???
show me the money!
