ano daw???

I came across a book entitled "the more the manyer - pinoy cliches and other words of wisdumb" by Tahanan Books sometime ago in powerbooks. kanina, di ko na napigilan ang sarili ko kasi tuwing madadaan ako sa powerbooks, nakikita ko sya at parang tinatawag nya ako (shiet ... haunted?? hehe) anyways, kakatawa kasi sya and everytime i pick it up and peek at the pages (peek lang ha, hindi basa to death wehehehe!), natatawa ako. why? well, to prove na nakakatawa nga sya (sana may ma-prove at nang ma-justify ang pagtawa-tawa ko sa powerbooks mag-isa), here are my top 10 favorite lines from the book:
1. Can you repeat it again once more for the second time around ? (ulitin natin, baka hindi naintindihan...)
2. That's what I'm talking about it! (sabi ko nga ... yun na nga yun...)
3. Every cloud has a silver lightning (ano yun? bagyo?)
4. Don't just do something! Stand there! (bawal gumalaw ha!)
5. The idea crossed at the back of my mind (na-traffic cguro...)
6. Give him the benefit of the daw! (huwat??? ano daw yun???)
7. I always go there sometimes (teka.... nalito akoh...)
8. Well, well, well, look do we have here! (well..well...well indeed! :P)
9. And where do you think you are off to running to? (malayo sa yo! ...)
and my peborit:
10. Hello? For a while. Please hang yourself. My Boss is out of town, would you like to wait?

And there's more ... hehehe =) kaya lang di ko na sya isusulat at baka ma-IPR chorva pa ako. If you want to read more, go grab a copy of the book. Available sya sa powerbooks =), btw, sale sila ngayon until the end of the month (libreng plug etoh... hahaha! halata bang adik ako sa libro?).

excuse me... are you MBA???

imbyerna! hahahaha!

last saturday morning while the gradcom of batch 09 (kami yun ... hehe ... formal introductions needed... mas may effect pag third person ang kwento...) was conducting their yearbook meeting sa MBA discussion room, one guy (who looked quite older than us ... pramis!!!) came over to their table and asked: "excuse me... are you MBA?" 8 pairs of eyes turned in his direction and they all basically said YES, iba-iba nga lang ... yes, why?  OO, why? pero isa lang ang sentiment ... poot hahaha! after that, he said, "ok, thank you", sabay atras, talikod at balik sa kwartong pinanggalingan nya. ay wait, before he closed the door, he told his groupmates, "they're MBA students.."

BAKEEEEETTT ???? mukha kaming undergrad?? (hhmmm, flattering... o baka kasi naka jeans and shirt lang kami halos lahat)... o mukha kaming nag-gate crash sa BA para lang magbalitaktakan at maghasik ng ingay at lagim sa MBA discussion room... pambihira....

anong napala nya? wala ... parang sya pa tuloy ang natameme. O cge, we were maingay ... granted, but he could've just asked us to tone it down, kasi they were discussing a case for finance ( i think..) we could've ended up remorseful and we'll try harder to keep the noise down. but noooooooooooooooooo.... excuse me, are you MBA????? are you insane??? asking 8 people that question??? parang galit sa buhay nya yung taong yun... (hahahaha! di kami war freak, pramis! ... kaloka lang)

isa pa, in all my years in UP hindi yata ako naka-experience ng nang-sisino ... SINO KA? parang ganun hahahaha! dapat pala cnabi namin hindi kami MBA, ano kayang gagawin nun, papalayasin kami? isa pa pala, they were 1-2 batches lower than us ... kaya guys, know muna your upper batches before going out and asking people who they are lalo na if the way you plan to ask them is not really friendly hahaha! baka umuwi kang may poknat...

excuse me, are you MBA?? yes... why??? we're you're upper batch... *irap, taas kilay ... poot ever* hahahaha!

di kami affected ... pramis ... nagkukuwento lang.
