Pippin's Song
Home is behind the world ahead,
and there are many paths to tread,
through shadow, to the edge of night,
till the stars are all alight.
Mist and shadow, cloud and shade.
All shall fade, all shall ... fade.

the first words i spoke today were in english.
there was this guy, japanese, if you'd like, who spoke to me inside the lift on my way down to the parking lot. he was asking in very polite terms if it was safe to go out and walk on the streets. what with the typhoon and all. it was such an unusual question to be sure, so i was quite flustered for a bit.
i said it was all right, just mind the floods and the strong winds i guess. he said it was his first time to live in the country (in the city?) and was concerned why classes were suspended. i suppose in japan they do that because of much worse conditions, not because of floods. what do i know.
he's probably not even japanese. hehe.

~e io dico ancora ch'aspetta a me,
~for'o barcone stanott'e ttre,
~e prega 'e Sante pe'mme vede
~ma nun ce sta nisciuna
~and i say that still she's waiting for me,
~out on the balcony tonight at three
~and she's praying to the Saints to see me
~but there is no one

searched that road sign i put in here a few days ago. a link to a gov.ph forum popped up. says some misinterpret WALANG TAWIRAN NAKAMAMATAY as "kahit saan ka tumawid, hindi ka mamamatay."
seems others have noticed it also. there are a few blogs that comment on it. such as a 031108 entry by roni_bats, a fine columnist over at peyups (check out his piece this week, duende). to mr. baticulon, please don't bisect me, what with all the proper attributions. another by a pleased onion_knight.

WALANG TAWIRAN NAKAMAMATAY
on our way home from a mindlessly stress-free weekend.
i was just thinking how id hate to be stuck on the north luzon expressway. it's so dark it's criminal! ive seen improvements they've made with our money though. the tollgates look imposing. i guess they havent gotten to the lighting part yet.
but i still want a shinkansen.

hah! so i thought. you can upload images on blogger.com now. pretty cool 8)
now let me see. what happened to me this past few weeks that was so interesting you'd want proof of it?
(lightbulb) i know!
about three weeks ago i burned my hand while cooking bangus. err, actually, i was about to cook it but. i never got a chance to do so, really. i was howling and crying in pain. all the while the milk fish was frying - ended up burnt to a crisp. tut, tut, my roommate said. you can imagine the sermon from gari.
let me test this thing now...
