SpongeBob Baby

While looking at pictures of a former co-worker’s first-born baby, our receptionist said, “Ang cute cute n’ya oh. Bilog na bilog yung ulo n’ya.”
One of our artists agreed. “Oo naman bilog yan. Eh syempre, may ulo bang square?!”
We laughed.
At kailangan pa n’yang humirit ulit: “Ano yan, si SpongeBob?!”
Ang masasabi ko lang, cute din si [...]

Mangarap Ka

While watching last night’s episode of Korina’s show, my youngest brother quipped,
“Pag nakaluwag-luwag ako, bibili ako n’yan.”
To which my older brother added,
“Tama. Pag wala na tayong masyadong pinagkakagastusan.”
Mukhang seryoso diba? Tipong nag-uusap tungkol sa responsibilities sa buhay. Wala namang mali talaga sa conversation na ito… except for the fact that they’re talking about “buying” the [...]

Tardiness

While having lunch at the office… we were talking about the times we were left on school field trips, retreats, and excursions. In fairness, I don’t have any experience like that. I’m such an OC freak that I hate being late. Especially on events like that.
One of my officemates, known for her tardiness, was sharing [...]

Version 2

My brother is one hell of a good sarcasm freak (nagmana sa ate). We were on the car and on our way to Robinson’s Ermita to meet a family acquaintance. We’re talking about the boyfriend of someone we hate.
My sister said, “Bakit, may hitsura naman s’ya ah.” (Hindi ko alam kung sarcastic rin sya or [...]

Usapang mukha

Isang gabi, galing ako sa megamall at nakasakay na sa bus na byaheng Fairview. Nakaupo ako sa may likod ng driver.
Driver: O yung Cubao dyan bumaba na o.
Babaan naman ang ibang pasehero.
Maya-maya pa may dalawang lalakking sumalubong sa nagbabaan at sumakay.
Driver: Sandali lang wag n’yong salubungin yung bababa. Magkapalit kayo ng mukha dyan. Mahirap pa naman [...]

Walang Gamitan!

Windang ang umaga ko nang marinig ko ang conversation na ito ng isang “oldie but goodie” consultant at ng isang office staff:
Consultant: Anong ginagawa mo ngayon? May trabaho ka pa ba for accounting or finance?
Staff: Sa legal po ako.
Consultant: Ah, sa legal ka ginagamit..
Gamit?!
Bigla akong napatigil at napaisip. Paglabas niya ng kwarto, sabay kaming tumawa ng officemate kong [...]

Of Poets, Story-tellers and Other Boo-boos

Ang mga sumusunod na kataga ay binanggit ng mga kagalang-galang na tao, sa isang marangal na pagtitipon somewhere in Las Piñas. Ang mga ito ay kabilang sa mga na-ungkat kong papeles ngayon-ngayon lang. Hindi ko na nga maalala kung sino ang nagsabi ng ano.
“Tatayo tayong lahat when they’re ready already.”
(Very poetic ha. Notice the rhymes.)
“He [...]

Stupid Love

From a friend na ang hobby eh mag-flood ng inbox ng mga friends n’ya ng text quotes (dahil yan sa unlimited texting tuwing kalaliman ng gabi):
If you’re not willing to sound stupid, then you don’t deserve to be in love.
Nakanang text yan! Pero bago pa kayo mapabilib eh galing ito sa A Lot Like Love. [...]

Pang-asar

Isang ordinaryong office day…
Person 1: After we leave, kindly call Rosita.. Rosita nga ba?
Person 2: Raquel. 
Sino nga kaya si Rosita? Kaano-ano niya si Marlon? Magagalit kaya itong si Raquel kapag nalaman niyang tinawag siyang “Rosita?” Matuwa kaya ang mga isda?
Habang tinatahak ang isang exclusive subdivision…
Person 1: Sinu-sino pa ang mga nakatila dito?
Person 2: Sila Pila Gualio, [...]
