I brought my copy of Pride and Prejudice to read during my trip to Manila, and took it to my mother's and left it there accidentally.
When I returned, the book was no longer there. Looked for it. Apparently my eldest sis who's also visiting took it to her room and had been reading it since.
I had been accused before of being proud as in "mayabang," and stubborn as in "matigas ang ulo." I guess those people didn't really know me that well. My select few friends (select by my own choice) see me differently.
Pride as in "mataas ang ere" is different from proud as in confident and "may tiwala sa sarili." "Fussy old ways" is also different from "disciplined in his ways."
Earlier, I was checking the places where to listen to good jazz music and found three: Monk's Dream Bar, Jazz Rhythm and El Pueblo. I need a good navigator to get to any of the above, someone who also prefers jazz.
I miss my GPS. I was driving early last Sunday morning and it was pouring lakes of rain and I was not sure where I was going - North or South.
I had to call my bro in law - "I'm going to Pasig and I see Baclaran and Alabang, where am I?"
"What, you're in Baclaran?" "No, I see signs saying Baclaran."
"Uh, okay, you're in the right direction."
I was in EDSA.
