Phobia


Ironic itong nadiskubre ko… ang tawag pala sa fear of long words eh – Hippopotomontrosesquippeddahophobiaeto na yata ang isa sa pinaka-mahabang salita at kung meron kang takot sa mahahabang salita eh parang ayaw mo na tong basahin. Eto yung tipong pwedeng ipang-punchline sa mga gag shows…

 

Eksena

 

Pasyente: Doc me diperensya po ata ako.

Doc: Bakit naman ano bang nararamdaman mo?

Pasyente: Meron po akong takot sa mahahabang salita, ano po ba tawag dun?

Doc: Fear of long words ba kamo? Ang tawag dyan ay Hippopotomontrosesquippeddahophobia.

Pasyente: Nyaaaaaaarggggghhhhhhhhh!!!

Doc: OA mo naman, buti nga hindi ko sinabing may pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoniosis ka e.

Pasyente: (kisay, kisay)

We Filipinos Are Mild Drinkers

Stumble upon this short story by National Artist for Literature Alejandro Roces (it's pretty long but trust me its a short story) on a book titled 'Panorama of World Literature for Filipinos',  i find this story amusing and funny at times. We may call the humor of Alejandro Roces as humor of exaggeration, the funny situations are laugh-provoking because they are... well... exaggerated hehe sometimes satirical. He wrote 'We Filipinos...' as a student of Arizona University and was first published in The Arizona Quarterly, i think it won him an award in literature from that university. So if you have a minute to spare read on. Happy reading!   We Filipinos are Mild Drinkers by Alejandro R. Roces WE Filipinos are mild drinkers. We drink for only three good reasons. We drink when we are very happy. We drink when we are very sad. And we drink for any other reason. When the Americans recaptured the Philippines, they built an air base a few miles from our barrio. Yanke...

It's not about you Carlo...

Antindi ng hype ke Carlo J sa pagiging National Artist nya, kung tutuusin naman eh hindi naman nya kasalanan talaga ng lubusan kung sya man ang mabigyan ng ganung parangal, ang me sala eh yung mga tao dun sa Malacanang particular yung petite na girl dun. Sila naman nag-singit sa kanya, sila naman ang gumawa ng bagong kategorya para s-swak sa kanya at sila naman nag parangal sa kanya so hindi naman siguro kasalanan ni Carlo J kung ano mang parangal ang tinanggap nya. Payo ko lang ke Carlo J, wag na nya masyadong i-defend yung sarili nya dahil nagmumukha syang… how would you say that?… pathetic?… tama nagmumukha syang pathetic, napanood nyo ba yung sa ANC? ( Carlo J at ANC ),dahil ang issue naman talaga eh hindi tungkol sa kanya (well partly tungkol sa kanya) pero ang talagang issue and ang questionable eh yung process na hinokus-pokus ng Malacañang, yung pagbale-wala sa original selection na ginawa ng CCP and NCCA committee, na kung hindi dahil sa minandyik na prose...

My Futile Attempt to Photography

Gutter droppings from makopa tree. Taken nung holy week, my auntie handed me 4 rolls of film, 24 exposure each 200asa, sayang naman, so i decided to unearth my rusty este trusty manual SLR, and click my boredom away. Most photos are taken from our neighbors house. Scanned sa office's Epson 4490 (the best!). The color is achieved by extending the selection bounderies of the scanner outside the negative margins, adjusted sa photoshop levels and sharpness and whooolaaaa, here's the result. You may call it art if you want to, i'm thinking otherwise hmmmmm.
