The Speed of the Jeepney is Inversely Proportional to the Age of the Driver

For the record, it was the fastest jeep I have ever gotten on.

As Merri put it, "Hindi nananampal ng tao ang jeep.."

True enough, pagbaba namin, parang nasabunutan lang kami..

The driver was probably in his early twenties.

Oh.

That gleam in her eye...

That bounce in her step...

Yep, she's drowned a rat again. (My mom's new hobby)

*types.this.as.rat.twitches.agonizingly.in.a.cage.submerged.in.a.red.bucket.full.of.water*
A sadistic little grin sat smugly on her face as she announced it to us this morning.

The rat looked upon me, gazing intently, begging for mercy with those black, beady eyes.
Oh, the pain.

I Ate Tongue For Lunch

and i didn't even know it. I heard my friend say that it was "duck."

I guess it wasn't.

My ears played a really cruel joke on me. If you don't like to eat tongue accidentally like I did, just watch out for the word 'lengua.' Yep, I didn't know what that meant. I just found out what it was when I got home and was left to imagine those things churning in my gut.

You are so very capable of analyzing, judging and discriminating, that very little ever escapes your observation and deep understanding. You are the type of person that can really get involved in a search for wisdom or hidden truths, often becoming an authority on whatever it is your are focusing on. This can easily be of a technical or scientific nature, or it may be religious or occult, it matters very little, you pursue knowledge with the same sort of vigor.

The positive aspects of the 7 expression are that you can be a true perfectionist in a very positive sense of the word.
