Irony Of Life


Mabait ako through and through pero today I had this "wake-up call." Sa sobrang kabaitan ko ... I realized  parang nagagamit na ako.

Noon tahimik lang ako ... at lahat na aking ginawa ... yon ay dahil mahal ko sila.  Pero napansin ko ako lang pala ang nagmahal ... it was only a one way street. Isang pagmamahal na hindi man lang naibalik ... it was a case of unrequited love.

Napanood ko nga sa mga teleserye at pelikulang Pinoy ... noon ako pa ang may duda at nagtatanong "meron bang ganoong sitwasyon in real life?" May mga character na ang panaghoy ay tapunan man lang sila ng konting pansin. Phrases like "kahit konting pagtingin ..." "Palimos ng pagibig" at Gaano Kadalas Ang Minsan?"

Palimos ng pagibig? Pati pag-ibig nagmakaawa na ... parang pulubi sa kalsada na naghihingi ng barya ... awa ... at limos?

Ang dami kasing WALANG PAKI ... dagdagan pa ng mga naglipanang ABUSADO who only care about themselves.

Sa mga da-barkads kong pareho ang sitwasyon ... mahalin at unahin natin ang ating sarili. There is no use chasing the love of your friends or family or partners.

Kung wala silang panahon para sa atin ... let us make TIME for OURSELVES!

Did You Know?


Above I use the phrase "through and through". Ano nga ba ang tama ... through and through ... or thru and thru?

The correct phrase is "through and through" as "thru" is considered an informal abbreviation of "through" and should generally be avoided in formal writing; "through and through" means completely or thoroughly. 

THROUGH is the only formally accepted spelling of the word. THRU is an alternate spelling that should be used only in informal writing or when referring to drive-throughs/drive-thrus.

Both "WALK THRU" and "WALK THROUGH" are acceptable depending on the context. “Walk thru” and “walk through” mean the same thing: To move through a place. To go over something carefully.

What's in A Name


I am very sure na kung manligaw si Ken Chan kay Jackie Gonzaga ng It's Showtime ... pag-isipan talaga ni Jackie kung aakyat sa susunod na level ang ligawan.

Knock on wood ... kung magkatuloyan sila ... will Jackie be comfortale kung tawagin siyang Jackie Chan?

SAMGYUPSAL-amat Kaibigan!



Dumating ang isa naming kaibigan galing sa South Korea. Siempre naghingi kami ng konting blow-out dahil mukhang pinalad siya doon sa land of KIMCHI.

Nagpustahan pa kami at suspetsa namin na hahanap ito ng isang Korean restaurant ... para doon kami kakain to drink a toast to his success sa bayan ng mga OPPA.

Indeed we can read him like a book. Tama nga ang basa namin sa aming long lost friend. Very predictable. Little did he know na malawak na rin ang aking experience with Korean cuisine based on my association with them ... sa Middle East man or sa America:

JJIGAE... JAPCHAE...TTEOKBOKKI...BIBIMBAP..BOLGOGI at iba pa.

Ganun pa man ...SAMGYUPSAL-amat sa ating mini-reunion. At nagkita ulit tayo.

Political Short



There is an unseen force that delays the impeachment trial ni Inday Sara until a later date. Salamat Senator Chit Escudero. Ikaw pala yon?

Naka-ZIPPER ang bibig ng mga tao ... pero ang mga reaction shots nila ay may SUBTITLE! Yong reaction nila ... parang Chinese movies na kahit hindi mo maintiendihan ang dialogue ... ang mga gestures and expression nila ay nagmumura ... and their eyes do all the talking.

Ah ... if looks could kill ...
