Yay! Was so happy to get a letter from Pal! <- padungog ni kay Steph, Myka, and Krisha. Pagpakabana pud mo. I think I mentioned my tendency to shift between Bisaya and English... kasi po baluktot aking Filipino. Pagpasensyahan.
Mahaba-haba rin ito. kaya, Go:
Ok lang po kami dito. Naiinis lang sa init. Ok lang naman ang humidity level. Kasi kahit mainit ang galing sa taas, ang hangin nman ay 17 C, so payts lang. As for recent developments:
> Si Papa ay may muscles na. Charmos! Grabe among binuang sa iya. Kapoy man gud pud kasi iyang trabaho. Pero, natingala kay wala na kaayo sakit, nagsugod na diay siya ug compensate. charmos, maskulado na akong papa! "_"
> Si Mama, nag-entre ug workshop dinhi for job search and work placement. gusto lagi gyud niya magtrabaho within her field. and in that way, I kinda understand her: bakit nga namn siya mag-survivor job? It's tiring for her... and discouraging since she's been over that stage of her life over 20 years ago... and stupid masyado ang kanyang Employment counselor: wrong spelling daw an 'Filipino' its 'Philippino' / Hindi daw kasama sa highlights ng resume ni mama ang Master's Degree niya in Environmental Planning when she's applying for an Environmental Health Officer / and she said "What the heck?" (my mom was insulted) to my mom's BS in Civil & Sanitary Eng'g Degrees. My sister and I wanted to take a time off from work and give our 2 cents to that idiotic woman...
> Si Sweet2x is attending a training paid for the government. Basically, there given certificates and placed in jobs. $8/hr siya. Suya lang kaayo siya kay mura man daw ug Christian Life. Grabe ka boring...
As for me:
My address here is 10635 132ND ST, SURREY, BC V3T 3V9. Yes, mahal magpadala dito. Regular mail from here to the Philippines is $1.49.
Ang init dito grabe. Dumating na sa punto na wala na koy pakialam nga mag-payong ko. Bahala mo mag-enjoy sa init. Ako wala gyud. Pero sila'y mag-wonder kung ngano naka pantalon gihapon ko. Lami kaayo ingnan 'this is normal weather in the Philippines.'
Speaking of weather: kamusta na kayo diyan? Grabe man bagyo (may TV Patrol dito) dinha uy!
As for my workplace. it's kind of cool. never knew so much work had to go into teeth, like crowns, dentures, and whatnots. It's kind of fun actually. There's the rush (though, not as much), when I was still a student (huh, still weirded out when I hear myself using the past tense on being a student...). As for the people, they're really good company...
I'm working in a dental laboratory that's like a UN meeting:
There's Sherry (Canadian), who's my direct supervisor. She's nice, and tries to keep everything afloat and light as possible... eventhough everyone getting cranky about deadlines not being met... though I worry about her getting a cardiovascular disease... she's obese. but still so cool.
There's Edwin, the one whose job I'm taking over. He's smart and funny in his own weird way (read= I think he's gay) :) Wala lang, so feminine kasi ang dating niya. Pero he's cool too.
There's Reiko, Edwin's mom, the owner's wife. She's Japanese. She's so cute! And she corrects my pronunciation. But don't expect me to be sprouting any Japanese soon, can't have much of a lesson in a workplace...
There's John, the owner, he's laid-back, and cool too. He knows everything all the technicians in the lab knows how to do...
There's James who makes me remember of James the 'hangman' He's so cute, he's a driver here, and as he was comparing distances, I found it so adorable that he would refer to a route with 'zoom zoom' :)
Then there's Glynis. She's british. I have little and close to no respect for her. When you ask her a question, she delves on the unnecessary. She's too sensitive: she cries when someone critics her (she actually cried my first day here when Edwin introduced her as a driver, what's wrong with being a driver), and today, she has a cold (and cough that's been lasting for the last month), and when I reminded her to cover her mouth, she got offended and yapped about, not being able to take a day off, and I was like, that's completely understandable, but please cover your mouth, we're in an insulated room, if you don't, we're all going to get sick...
Blah, blah, blah.
Samok kaayo na tao.
The compensation: There are others too, all of them are really nice people in collective.
And now to my reactions to the letter Pal sent me. (Yes, padungog ni kay Steph, Myka, and Krisha!)
What?! Your season in judo was moved? ...by Studio 23? huh? they can do that? Isn't the sports events like an entirely different thing from them? More details please...
Astig naman! Thesis na man gyud! Senior na gyud kaayo! Gud luck to you Pal on that. Hope everything turns out all right...
As for the episodes, nag-iisip pa kung bibili or not... Kasi, pirated cds I can't bring in to Canada, so sayang lang... pero am saving for a laptop kasi (Charmos! With my own money... pagmag-sale...), so maybe I'll just copy some of them? Kaya Pal, pahiram ng: House and Lost. Yan pa muna ngayon :)
You have the scanlations for both 'Only the Ringer Finger Knows' novels (2&3)?! Pahiram! :) Or e-mail! :) if you have the time...
And hanggang 12 lang po talaga ang Gravi. May 2 novels afterward. Yun lang..
And no, hindi mo pa nakwento ang pairing na yan (lingaw ang mommy pa ang seme :) ) Names and more pictures please!
Ikaw na lang ang girl sa judo team?! Astig! So um, ok ka lang, aside from the injuries? Kaya pa ng body mo? I mean, with everything else, your academics, and other extracurricular? If you think you can do it (it's your body, you'll be able to decide it best right?), then go! (nalingaw si Edwin pagsabi kong moral support ako sa inyo, as in from Sports, to Musical Instruments, and even chores...). Basta, be careful lang ok? Nakakatakot na magleak ang cerebral fluid... grabe yan na medical emergency ba... ok lang yung girl?
Grabe! Ang haba ng entry ko... pagpasensyahan na aking mga wrong spelling and grammar. Sa susunod muli.
At kaya sabay tayo sa: EAT RIGHT, SLEEP ENOUGH, PLAY ONCE IN A WHILE, AND WEAR SUNBLOCK WHEREVER YOU GO.
INGATZ!!
