Diagnosis: The Dwarves Envied My Daughter

A phone conversation between myself and my friend, Cheryl.Me: Che, Paige was sick.. blah.blah.blah. So we went to the doctor and brought her to the hospital and they couldn't find anything wrong with her. blah.blah.blah. We brought her to the quack. Amazingly, her diarrhea and vomiting stopped altogether. blah.blah.blah.Che: That's what I learned to. Now, before I bring Jade to the doctor, I make sure that I go to the quack first.This conversation...

Benazir Bhutto and Buto

Back in High School, I had to know by heart the history of Pakistan. I was then 14-years-old, but I knew who Benazir Bhutto was.We always had a difficult time saying the word, "Bhutto" because in our local dialect there is the word, "Buto" which if you must know means, "Testicles".So, whenever we had to pronounce the word, "Bhutto", you could probably imagine the giggling behind your back.It was really difficult to say the word then. So, I never...

Enjoying Archie Comics Online

Did you ever curl up on your bed or the couch while reading stacks of Archie Comics?God! I loved those days. I would borrow Archie comics from my classmates who had the money to buy those freakingly expensive (for me at that time they were) comics and I would spend hours just giggling over Jughead's antics.I loved Jughead. I think everyone does. He's lazy and he's a glutton. But have you wondered why he was your favorite?And of course, who would...

My Unfortunate Christmas Dinner

It's ironic how things turn out. I budgeted our money so that I'd be able to keep my promise to my mother that she would not have to worry about Christmas dinner because we'd take care of it. So, on top of every thing we have to buy -- diapers, milk, medicines, etc -- I made sure that we'd have one hell of a Christmas dinner.But while I was worrying about the freakin' dinner, my parents were worried about their chickens. I've even teased my mother...

Charice Pempengo guesting in Ellen Degeneres Show

I was wondering how Charice Pempengco did on her Ellen Degeneres Show guesting.So I looked for it and I have three thoughts about it:a. I've seen her do the microphone throwing thing three times already -- in three different shows.b. I was a little bit skeptic about her being "that" good -- if you know what I mean. I mean, you'd probably see a lot of 15-year-old singers here who are as good as her or even better.c. But hell damn! She made it to the Degeneres Show! That makes me SO proud of her. She made it there! Hell! If you'd think about...

Not Really About Charice Pempengco

I was surfing through blogs and I JUST found out that Charice Pempengco is going to the Ellen Degeneres Show. Amazing!Well, my sister loved her and was betting that she'd win that Little Big Superstar contest but alas Sam Conception, with his little voice won. Charice was not really that pretty to begin with and so if you're not really a fan of Little Big Superstar, you wouldn't really notice her.After I learned about the Degeneres Show, I searched through YouTube's videos for her.And damn!After this video --that voice, the attitude, the stage...

I was Named WHAT?!

I have had different names for the last 27 years of my life.When I was a snotty, flat-nosed kid, my relatives used to call me Tinggay or Terenggay. I hated it. When my childhood bestfriend dared to call me Terenggay, I didn't speak to her for two whole months which made me miserable, but it was the principle of the thing I was fighting for. She didn't get it though. So, I thought what the heck and we got back to making dog's shit traps for the neighbor.We...

Take some pants off that bag and put it on plea...

Weird and Pantyless Nana Delia

In our little barrio, we call our aunts, "Nana"And even if we don't really know how we are related, we are compelled to call them, "Nana"; otherwise, we'd incur the wrath of the parents.And we have a particular Nana we call, "Nana Delia".Nana Delia is a peculiar character.If you've seen movies with weird old ladies in them or read books with an equally cuckoo old lady in them -- well, that's Nana Delia in my life.She pops up whenever she wants.She...

Revealing Secrets about Yourself

I came across this blog Beamanand he had an entry where he revealed 7 Things About HimselfAnd finding this interesting I want to follow suit and if you read this perhaps you can send me a comment where you'd tell me at least three things people do not know about you.So, here goes.1. If we are not really close, you wouldn't know that I wrap my feet with mosquito net when I go to sleep. Now, you'd probably think that's weird but I'll have you know that 2 out of 10 people in this freaking country have the same affliction.2. I love cartoons. I...

Why Tom Cruise is a Kook

I was curious about Scientology. I've always shrugged it off every time I'd read things about it. So, I finally decided to read where all those Alien Jokes were coming from.And what I discovered?Yeah, Tom Cruise deserves those alien cracks about him.So, here are some of the beliefs I find really weird.They believe that psychiatry and psychology are destructive. In fact, they blame almost all the wars in the world to psychiatry.They believe that Xenu, the alien ruler of the Galactic Confederacy, dumped billions of people in volcanoes and blew them...

Waiting for the Bar Exams Results

Waiting is not easy.It is a complete torture.Like you're waiting for someone to give you your breath back.Like waiting for the ax to fall -- this is how I feel right now.Waiting for the inevitable.Unfortunately, I feel like the inevitable would mean sour bitter taste in my mouth,like ashes falling off from a dead dream.I've been surfing around the net and have read few blogs about the bar exams. The authors have discussed their answers and they...
