That's my problem I'm new in this world and I don't know which is normal. wala akong reference kasi kung alin ang tama alin ang mali. May mga kilala ako sa Seattle napaka-conservative naman sila. I think it's really different here in the Bay area especially or mostly the Ameriasian girls, lumalaki na lang mata ko sa mga nakikita ko.
Sabi naman ng ismi ko nabigla din sya doon sa mga "goodbye kiss" ng ex nya. Di naman daw ganun dati. which proves my point that the first guy is pakitangtao lang just insecure especially now that he learned I have a college degree and he is just a car salesman.
Last Monday we attended a catholic party for the Columbian squires and I saw that the hugging and the goodbye kisses are gone parang umiwas na lang ismi ko. I also saw how dressed and covered the men are (you only see the head and hands) and how expensive seguro are the womens clothes here kasi maliliit mga damit nila. I think per yard of women clothing is expensive here. They have long coat but when they remove it you can see everything just use your imagination.

I hope it's settled now coz I poured out everything on her. Anyway I found out the ex was just trying to make jealous. Thanks for the thought.

I won't complain

Are you sure coz you can help me clean the guest house. Everytime I use the elliptical or the threadmill I have to pick up many, many girl sports clothes and stuff and all the machines smell of Jergens. Drop by... hahaha.

Padre - if your sister-in-laws don't wear bra's and if they have a dog - maybe this is what they do....

Another lesson to learn my friend - don't belittle a car- salesman or any other jobs that people do there. Not like in the Phils. where we think education is the only means to have a better life, here in the west it's what you do good that makes you successful.
I actually have a friend here in England ( stays in the hotel) who cannot read properly - soemtimes - can't even write his full name - but he's a successful shop owner - owns about 50 shops around the country and it made him a multi millionaire.

Proper Plumbers here charge £50.00 on top of any job that they do. Am surprise one time when I called a plumber - and he came driving in his BMW.


It's nice to have an education - but don't flaunt it. Your true goodness comes out whatever.

Hehe di naman belittle nayayabangan lang ako. but youre right. He drives a Hummer H2 and he can afford to pay $1,200 a month for his two kids monthly sustento.
If you just meet him you will think he is a senator or a president. I guess it's the same for everybody here in my world, puro maporma.

Re: Culture shock

I'm the only one in the house, the only one at work, only one at school who doesnt know how football is played and how is the scoring. Sure i downloaded things to read but I feel out of touched when they start talking about names likes Vikings, Faver, colts, Jets, Saints, Manning ( my wife says she'll dump me for this guy sad ) and Mark Sanchez ( ??? ) whose name you mention can wake up my sisters sleeping.

Ano ba alam ko eh Alaska Aces ako eh. Trillo, Lastimosa, Banal, Tenorio.
