Isang Pagsasalaysay sa Wikang Filipino

Ngayon ko naisip na labis ko nang nasasabik na makita ang aking mga pamilya at kaibigan sa Pilipinas. Marahil sa dahilang malapit na ang pasko kaya palaging sumasagi sa aking isipan ang mga maga-gandang alaala ng nakaraan--- simbang gabi kasama ang mga kabarkada, walang katapusang kwentuhan at kainan sa ka-hanggan (wikang Batangas na ibig sabihin ay 'kapit-bahay'), sa Jollibee at sa SM. Bumili ng mga regalo sa nararating na pasko, Gumala kasama ang mga pinsan, dumalaw sa puntod ng mga Inay at Tatay... dalawin ang Nanay, mga ninang, mga inaanak (pag-iisipan ko muna kung dapat nga lang dalawin ang inaanak...hahahahaha! biro lamang~)...

Nalulungkot ako dahil hindi kami makaka-uwi nitong darating na pasko. Abala si Tommy sa kanyang trabaho, at ako naman ay nagkaroon ng espesyal na klase sa Ingles sa aming institusyon na sisimulan sa darating na bakasyon (Tag-lamig). Nangako kami noong nakaraang taon na darating kaming tatlong pamilya nitong pasko, subalit sa kawalan ng sapat na oras at salapi, pinag-kasunduan namin na ipag-paliban ang aming plano sa susunod na taon. Marahil sa isang taon sapat nang panahon iyon para matapos namin ang aming pinagkaka-abalahan sa ngayon at matupad na namin ang aming pangako.

Keeping Right

Have you ever experienced walking on the right side of a sidewalk when suddenly a rushing Korean run into your direction, literally? If you won't give way, you'll just hear that someone muttering something under his breath. Or have you ever had these cases like you were doing " patintero "(pah-tin-teh-roh) with the other person when you are walking? I find this behavior very bothering (sometimes odd and funny) especially when I use the stairways in the subway. Some subway stations have escalors going up installed at the left (e.g. Deokcheon Station). What is surprising is that they even have this sign: I told this to Tommy a few days ago and I just found out from him that they learn walking at the left side of the road in their elementary days. They even have this song that goes lilke this: "People keep to the left and cars to the right. Let's cross the street after looking right and left." So, it must be because of an old convention of walking on the le...

Samsung's AMOLED

Yup. I have a new phone and this is because of Chloe. She knocked out my phone so hard on the bathroom floor that made the monitor useless for two whole days! I went to a near Anycall service center and actually planned to repair it but they said that I had to pay for around 25,000won for a part replacement, I just thought of buying a new one since there are a lot of free phones nowadays and I had used my phone for more than two years. To pay 25k for an old, really full of scratches phone (because of Chloe) is too much for me since sooner or later I also need to replace it. In the end, it turned out not to be a free phone(850,000 won / $690). Tommy bought this phone for me saying that I need a "much, much better phone" because of his daughter...hahaha! and because I've been always using free phones since I came here in Korea (which are NOT really FREE PHONES because of the additional services included in the phone bill for the first few months). So, I resulted picking thi...
