I swear. Something's definitely wrong. It's been always a pleasure hanging out with people who speak alien language. No, not particulary foreign but the bastardization of Filipino and English language. It's not taglish (Tagalog-English). It's something similar with a touch of gay lingo. Something is wrong because I'm getting an unusal amount of these kinds of conversations on a daily basis. Examples:
- Adiktus Pekinesis na naman ang drama nyang babaeng yan.
- Walang pera ang beauty ko! Hindi tama.
(Thanks Audrey for the line!)
- Kawawa the poor people.
- Fayatolah khoumenei yung bagets
- Paahbolous!
And...

I swear, hindi ko kinaya. I feel quite devastated knowing the only funny thing I can pull of is Ms. Annabel Rama's "Ropaaah" accent. I mean that doesn't even run romotely parallel with this breed of language. I'm mastering the the Visayan accent though. Must have patience. I'd rather have that accent that adapt to the conyo language popular among kids these days (e.g. "Ang Paaahni mo!"). So there, pare.
Well things are starting to get better, at least. That's something to be grateful for. Yes, I think I'm very near getting back on track, maybe be not on a high note, but I'm getting there. Alright. Enough drama. I must not lose momentum.
