Bone of Contention

People say you're ugly
Others say you're pretty
Is this reality or just my imagination?
Why should your appearance
Be a bone of contention?

People say you're useless
Others say you're a genius
Is this reality of just my imagination?
Why should your real IQ
Be a bone of contention?

People say you're small
Others say you're tall
Is this reality or just my imagination?
Why should your height
Be a bone of contention?

They say you're nice to people
While others never like you at all
Is this reality or just my imagination?
Why should your real personality
Be a bone of contention?

I don't care what other people say
I'm always thinking of you night and day
At the top of my lungs, I could scream and shout
To me, your're nice, beautiful and smart
Beyond a shadow of a doubt!

Let Me Share These Funny Pictures With You

Today is my off-day from work so...here I am in front of my computer surfing the internet, checking e-mails, etc., etc., and of course, etc. I came across some funny pictures that I would like to share them with you! I have put some captions (in Ilocano, Tagalog, or English) that I think are appropriate or, at least, make it funnier while looking at the pictures.



"Pusa, no saanka nga agsardeng a ngiyaw a ngiyaw, pati dayta agtiltillayon dita baba ti ubetmo ket kagatek!"





























"Ne, kitaenyo ket dua ti bagik!"

"Lukdit, napanmo met liningdan ti ulok!"


















"Urayendak! Saandak a panawan! Apay, uray no sabali ti maris ti kudilko, pato-ak met a kas kadakayo!"




















"Every time I smell this flower, I remember the intense love-making I had that one night with Lakay Istong's pussycat..."























Kuna ni Kulasa, "'Nia, mamatikan, Juan, a dakdakkel ti ngiwatko ngem sika!"

Kuna met ni Juan iti unegna, "Dakayo a babbai, dadakkel amin dagiti abut iti bagiyo!"
























"Kastoy met gayam ti kalaadko, yong! Isu met la gayam nga amin a babai nga inaremko ket pinaaydak!"
































Idi kuan kuna ti babai a tukak,"Diosko, apay a daytoy a murdong iti nakabitinak? Sabali a murdong ti kayatko a pagbitinan!"

































"Um, sige, luko! Huli kita!"

































"Siak ti immuna a nangsippit!"
"Saan! Siak ti immuna!"
"Siak!"
"Siak!"



































"Agtalnaka, a, ta ikkatek dayta dakkel a duggong dita uneg ti agongmo!"





























So long folks!























I hope you enjoyed watching the pictures. I have to go and do my brisk walking at the mall, come back home, take a shower, change in my best suit and go out. I have a date with my-




























Ops! Wrong picture!

I will be the luckiest guy that has ever lived on earth if I can have a date with the most beautiful actress in China.

Ops! I did it again! No mabasa daytoy ti gayyemko baka punnuenna iti bukol ti ulok! Ha ha ha ha!


Bye, see you later.

HEARTACHE

It was a bitter pill to swallow
When one day I came to know
The woman in my life is silently suffering
Inside me I can feel my heart crying
Now as I write, I can see my pen bleeding red
My whole body is shivering from toe to head
God, what's in your mind? What are you thinking?
Why did you lead me to this rude awakening?

Ti Lake Anna No Tiempo ti Lamiis

Idi summer dumagasak ditoy Lake Anna no agawidak manipud iti trabahok- umay agpagnapagna. Ngem ita labaslabasak laengen ta, ay Apo, napunno metten iti niebe ti aglawlawna.




















Ngem uray no nalimiis iti ruar, adda met latta saggalting nga umay agpagnapagna ditoy...



















Saanakon a maka-uray ti isasangbay ti spring! No kastoy a winter ditoy America, kasla nakalidliday ti rikrikna-en. Saanakon a maka-uray ti panaglukat ti maysa a busel ket agbalin a maysa a napintas a sabong!

Hmm, malagipko man ti sinurat ti maysa a nalatak a mannurat, "O wind, if winter comes can spring be far behind?"

My Girl Leofina

Where is my girl Leofina, I'm feeling so lonely and alone
She must be busy these days, her nose always to the grindstone?

To keep my sanity, write a lovely poem for her I must
Or shall I just watch my pen slowly gathering dust?

I'm trying to collect my thoughts, trying to find an answer
Not to have met and known her, would it have been better?

Now I wonder if setting my heart on her was a calculated risk
But no, deep inside me I can feel, Leofina is the girl I sorely misk.*

















*intentionally written
as "misk" instead of "miss"
in order to rhyme with "risk".
