Recap: the whole week

Today is Araw ng Davao.. It's raining pretty hard since the wee hours in the morning til this moment. A very cold day for all, though it's raining, the programs are still on.. I didn't go out though, it's too wet! hehehe.. instead I stayed home and slept! hahaha..

Yesterday, I renewed my passport, took us a few hours (1hour 25mins. to be exact). It wasn't too long as I expected, and there were a lot of people, when we went in they were still in 219.. I was number 334! I'll be getting the renewed passport next week. It's funny 'coz if you choose 1 week you pay P500.. if you choose 2-3 days it's P700 and 1 day mga around hmmm... 1,000 ++.. I was thinking, if it could be possibly done in 1 day, then why settle for longer periods?? ah, I guess it's all for the money. chiching! hehe.. well well.. that's the 3rd world for you. Another was, 3years ago, we opted to get passports by travel agency, they charged P1,000 each, though I forgot how many days that was, hmm... if it were for a day so meaning they got P300 each.. we are around 6 in the family.. damn that's P1,200 hehe.. well so this year we opted to do it, di naman pala ganun ka -grabe ang processing.. sus!

Two days ago, received news that my beloved brother just passed his revalida! whew... This may mean soon we'll be having another M.D. in the family.. it's great! my dad's dream is coming true :) ... graduation will be on the 29th of April.. it's been almost 2years since I last saw my ahiya.. we miss him. :)

Last Monday, I restarted my Gym efforts.. hahaha.. though it's difficult to be back to disciplined, I'm determined to do so this time... Though I wasn't able to go to gym today due to rain, I hope I can tomorrow, and oh by the way, I'll be starting basics of boxing per advice by the trainor.. He says I'm good with my lower body for cardio, and what I need is cardio for my upper body, boxing would be great! Hope I can start tomorrow.

And Oh I think I forgot, for Shanghai, dad gave me my Jade Bracelet, the type you wear for life, no taking off..... hay of course, It took me pains to get it on in the first place! hahaha

Translations

Words are oftentimes mis-used or even mistranslated when you over-translate them. It even loses it's meaning and may come out funny. One classic example would be TOOTHPASTE. I'm particularly interested in this word (or noun) because it doesn't have a translation in Filipino or in our dialect. Well, for those who know what the words are then please correct me :) I came across this topic in a skype group the other day, we were chatting our hearts out with people from around the world (well most are Filipinos but in different countries) then one person blurted " so ano ang tagalog sa toothpaste? " Everyone kept silent then someone suddenly blurted " joke ba yan? " then most chorused " COLGATE! "... much to my demise, I realized, I didn't know what the tagalog word is for Toothpaste, yet alone know the bisaya term for it. So, I researched online but nothing. Then started texting my friends (Globe lang coz free txt ako sa globe hehhehe) then pe...

Joke Text Messages --- A Reflection

Sa sermon, bag-ong Kano nga pari gitabangan sa Pinoy Interpreter: Pari: The Lord was crucified between two robblers. Roy: Si Hesus gilansang tunga sa duha ka goma. Pari: If we do not repent. Roy: Kung dili ta mamintal ug usab. Pari: The wrath of God will come upon you. Roy: Ang mga ilaga sa Dios moanha kaninyo . (Nangatawa ang mga nanimba) Pari: Well.. well... Roy: Atabay, Atabay.. . Those are one of the many jokes I often receive on day-to-day basis and it truly makes me smile and wonder: How do makers of these jokes ever conceive such simple yet effective ones? Well, maybe it's just me, maybe mababaw lang talaga ang kaligayahan ko .. or simply maybe my tickle bones are just too sensitive. But it's funny.. most especially the joke which follows: During the Last Supper, Jesus broke bread and shared to the twelve. So did they share with the wine... then Jesus said, " Naa diri kaninyo karon ang tao nga mag- betray kanako" ... Then Jesus looked sternly to Judas.. Judas...
