Burn the bridge when you get there
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
An officemate sent this to me this morning. I’d like to share this with you guys. I have no idea who wrote this. Maybe this was the reason why the US State Department said that our English is going bananas? HeHeHe! But this post is for mi amigo Joey. Joey is a Spanish-Filipino meztiso that I met in Philadelphia. No, he’s not my type. Sorry. I prefer aboridyinis. But you see, Joey refuse to read my blog, because he said, he couldn’t stand the erotically wrong grammar I use. So, Joey, this is for you - from your Indio friend.
The!
We’ ve been friends for a long time ago. We come from the same alma mother. Actually, our paths crossed one time on another. But it’s only now that I gave him a second look. I realized that beauty is in the eyes. The pulpbits of my heart went fast, really fast. Cute pala siya. And then, he came over with me. He said, “I hope you don’t mine. Can I get your number?” Nag-worry ako. What if he doesn’t give it back? He explained naman na it’s so we could keep intact daw. Sabi ko, connect me if i’m wrong but are you asking me ouch? Nabigla siya. Sagot niya, The! Aba! Parang siya pa ang galit! Persona ingrata!!! Ang kapal niya! I cried buckles of tears.
Na-guilty yata siya. Sabi niya, isipin mo na lang na this is a blessing in the sky. Irregardless daw of his feelings, we’ll go ouch na rin. Now, we’re so in love. Mute and epidemic na ang past. Thanks God we swallowed our fried. Kasi, I’m 33 na and I’m running our time. After 2 weeks, he plopped the question. “Will you marriage me?” I’m in a state of shocked. Kasi mantakin mo, when it rains, it’s four! This is true good to be true. So siyempre, I said yes. Love is a many splendor.
Pero nung inaayos ko na ang aming kasal, everything swell to pieces. Nag-di-dinner kami noon nang biglang sa harap ng aming table, may babaeng humirit ng, “Well, well, well. Look do we hav e here.” What the fuss! The nerd ng babaeng yon! She said they were still on. So I told her, whatever is that, cut me some slacks! I didn’t want this to get our hand kaya I had to sip it in the bud. She accused me of steeling her boyfriend. Ats if! I don’t want to portrait the role of the other woman. Gosh, tell me to the marines! I told her, “please, mine you own business!” Who would believe her anyway?
Dahil it’s not my problem anymore but her problem anymore, tumigil na rin siya ng panggugulo. Everything is coming up daisies. I’m so happy. Even my boyfriend said liketwice. He’s so supportive. Sabi niya, “Look at is this way. She’s our of our lives.”
Kaya advise ko sa inyo - take the risk. You can never can tell. Just burn the bridge when you get there. Life is shorts. If you make a mistake, we’ll just pray for the internal and external repose of your soul. I second emotion.

Ika nga ni Mareng Svelte, “Let’s cross the bridge, come on!”
Sensya kung delayed ng one day ang dalaw. Alam kong member ka ng aking Tuesday Group, pero busy si Kuya Germs.

mia, sa totoo lang! tagalog is a great language for humour dahil i-translate mo yong joke into english - lost in translation ang dating eh!
so kaming mga pinoy here would always chat in tagalog tapos para kaming mga bangag na tawa nang tawa. nagagalit ang mga kano - speek englist daw. so, may we speak englist naman di ba, tapos yong joke para na lang sya bokya!!! nawawala yong umph!

Actually Reynz, I’m also waiting for the nursing board exam result but I figured once you have it, you’ll post it in your website, so no use flooding your inbox with ’she-mails’ :-)) I saw this article at aliw ako. Who wrote this, anyway? Ang galing nyang mag-wrong grammar, sentence misconstruction, syntax error at kung ano-ano pang errors ha! Bilib at aliw na aliw talaga ako!!! Di ba, it’s fun not to take yourself seriously? Kung totoo man ang story na to, at kung sino man ang author nito, I’m sure, you’ll live happily ever after with your boyfriend who is soon to be your husband. Sino ba namang lalaki ang hindi ma-aaliw sa yo? ;-))
