Signs on the Road

Minsan natatawa ako sa kung paano ko iinterpret ang street at road signs. 

“No Crosswalk”
Bawal ang gegewang gewang ang lakad - Makati Ave.

“No Pedestrian Crossing”
Pero may Pedestrian Lane - Paseo de Roxas

“Ped Xing”
Akala ko Intsik na may kanya ng street, Pedestrian Crossing pala - Luneta

“One Way”
Na pagkaliit-liit, strategy para makapanghuli - Manila

“Walang Tawiran Nakamamatay!”
Na pagkalaki-laki… masyado naman tong manindak - Baclaran

“Bawal ang Tao dito”
Eh saan ako? - Banaue, QC

“Bawal Dito!”
Ang alin? - Makati

Non-stop blinking yellow light
<Pwesto!  Pwesto!  Kelan mo ba ako patatawirin.>

Concert mode

Naisipan kong lakarin na lang mula Makati Ave cor. Buendia to Ayala Avenue.  Alas 10:00 ng gabi na nun.

Gusto ko lang talaga marelax ang utak ko.  Hindi biro ang pinanggalingan kong laban.

At ang tanging regalo ko sa sarili ko para marelax?  Kakanta talaga ako habang naglalakad.

Wa ko care sa maiirita sa boses ko.  Mundo ko rin naman to bakit ba?

Intro …

<in a mellow voice>

Sana maulit muli, ang mga oras nating nakaraan
Bakit nagkaganito, naglaho na ba ang pag-ibig mo
Sana maulit muli, sana'y bigyan ng pansin ang himig ko
Kahapon bukas ngayon, tanging wala ng ibang mahal

Lumiko ako ang Paseo de Roxas para matapos ko yung kanta. Andun na ako sa magandang part na…

Ito ang tanging nais ko, ang ating kahapon
Sana maulit muli….

Nang may tumawag sa akin… 

 “Uy Sheggz… boyfriend mo?” 

Napakunot ang noo ko. Kababayan ko yun.  Nagulat ako sa tanong.  Paglingon ko, meron palang lalaki sa likuran ko… Kung pwede lang sanang lumubog ako sa open manhole ginawa ko na … sa hiya.

Sabi ko.. “Hindi po.. Audience ko hehehe”

Napangiti si lalaking chinito.  Sshh kahawig niya ung vocalist ng Hale.

Pinutol ko na rin ang conversation namin ng kakilala ko… Akala ko tapos na…. Pag-upo ko sa bus, may nagsalita…

Chinito:   Sayang, hindi mo natapos ang kanta.  Makikipagduet pa sana ako sa yo.”

Sheggz:  Honga eh.  Concert mode pa naman ako… hehehehe

Chinito :  Natuwa lang ako sa iyo kanina.  Kala ko may sayad ka. Kaya kita sinundan, sinisigurado ko kung may sayad ka kasi wala sa hitsura e.

Sheggz:  Hehehe timang…

Siyempre kailangan ko nang putulin ang kwento… dahil tinulugan ko yung katabi ko.  Itinuloy ko nalang sa utak ko ang naunsyaming concert

Booty - Qi =)

I used to browse my brother's cellphone <with his permission, of course> for inspiring, wacky and nerdy nerdy text messages.  I was so happy to have read one message involving lizards… that made me smile…  Just want to share this with you…. 

Btw, I'm so afraid of lizards… I remembered one time, it fell off right into my right knee.  I was wearing shorts that time. I found myself not moving after all, I could clearly hear my heart beat hehehe.  I wasn't so sure what the lizard might be thinking… whether to climb up <to the forest.. hehehe> or to go down to my feet.   Haay, glad that it went down…

Well… it wasn't my story…. just the preamble… hahahaha 

Magkaibigang Butiki

To renovate a house, someone in Japan had to tear the wall open.

After he did, he found a lizard stuck because a nail was hammered into one of his feet.  He pitied the lizard, curious and checked.

It turns out, it was nailed 10 years ago when the house was built.

He wondered how the lizard survived 10 years without moving.

Later, another lizard came with food in its mouth.  He was amazed.

The newcomer had been feeding the stuck for the past 10 years.

A Murder, not a Suicide

Crime scene:

In a house, a dead man with a gun in one of his hands and a recorder on the other.  A gunshot through his head.  No sign of violence. The detective in charge took the recorder and played it. 

"I'm tired of my life, I wanna die." *gunshot*

The detective asked the dead man's roommate, "Is this his voice?".  He replied, "yes".

The detective said "we must find the murderer".

How did the detective know it was a murder and not a suicide?

Think.
