Misheard Lyrics part 1

I got this from an email. Some are old, some are older, but would still make you scratch your head...

Pag mura ang songhits na nabili mo... this is what you get :)

Greatest Love of All - I decided long ago, never to walk in edu manzano...
(I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadow)

Cry by Mandy Moore - A walk to remember... it was late afternoon!
(I'll always remember, it was late afternoon)

All My Life by K-ci and Jojo - supposed to be you're like my mother,supposed to be you're like my sister
(close to me you're like my mother... close to me you're like my sister)


Where's the Love - People killing, people flying, children hurt an living, crying...
(People killing, people dying; children hurt and you hear them crying)

Leaving on a jet plane - so kiss me and SMAFFLE me...
(so kiss me and smile for me...)

Usher & Alicia's My Boo - It started when we were younger you were NINE...
(It started when we were younger you were mine)
(and you were my BEYBLADE... it started when were younger you
were FINE)

If I Ain't Got You by Alicia Keys - "some people want TAMBOURINES.."
(diamond rings)

Britney's Baby One More Time - My ONLY NEST is killing me... and I........
(My loneliness....)

Thumbthumping (Chumbawumba) - I get knocked down by an elephant, my mommas's gonna bring me down...
(I get knocked down, but I get up again...)

Crush by Jennifer Paige - i-splash, a little crush..
(it's just.. a little crush..)

to be continued...

21 Little Life Lessons

ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.

TWO. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other.

THREE. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.

FOUR. When you say, "I love you," mean it.

FIVE. When you say, "I'm sorry," look the person in the eye.

SIX. Be engaged at least six months before you get married.

SEVEN. Believe in love at first sight.

EIGHT. Never laugh at anyone's dreams. People who don't have dreams don't have much.

NINE. Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely.

TEN. In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.

ELEVEN. Don't judge people by their relatives.

TWELVE. Talk slowly but think quickly.

THIRTEEN. When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, "Why do you want to know?"

FOURTEEN. Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risk.

FIFTEEN. Say "bless you" when you hear someone sneeze.

SIXTEEN. When you lose, don't lose the lesson

SEVENTEEN. Remember the three R's: Respect for self; Respect for others; and Responsibility for all your actions.

EIGHTEEN. Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.

NINETEEN. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.

TWENTY. Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice.

TWENTY-ONE. Spend some time alone.

Gay Lingo part 1

Admit it.

Gay lingo here in the Philippines is very pop, mainstream and very, very contagious. When you come to think of it, you will be amazed how broad you know. Then you realize, you never really studied it, never really paid attention to it, never really researched about it, but you know a lot of terms and definitions. Of course you do!

An orgmate's anecdote:

He was in a cab with his (biologically female) sister when they noticed that the meter was running fast. His ate, being very witted, told him in a straight face:

Watchalu mo ang Metring David, Harry Potter!

Translation: Look at the meter, it's doing magic! Basically because it was going really fast, and at the blink of an eye, it's changed.

Manong Cab Driver did not understand the remark, but collected a few bucks more. My friend and his sister paid a bit more, but had a heck of fun out of their cab conversation that day that left the Manong clueless from Mcdo Katipunan to Marikina Riverpark!

---------
After class anecdote:

Me, my friend Dan and Darius (both gay people) are about to cross the street when Darius suddenly sped up his srtides. Dan asked why.

Bilisan nyo! Makyoho!

Translation: bilisan nyo, mabaho!

I, a gayspeaker myself, was a bit surprised to hear this seemingly new gay word the first time, but hey, there's always the first time. And remember, the human mind is very receptive of new words. Don't be surprised that one time you'll use that word in your own sentence, unconsciously, with confidence!

pay it forward

from a highschool friend:

happiness always looks small
if you hold in in your hands

but when you learn to share it,
you'll realize how big and precious it is.
Ü

so everyone, let's share the happiness and pay it forward!
