1. …your friends surprise you with gifts. lumabas na ang christmas gift na templates ng ninang kong si ate sienna kay mylabopmayn jet. para makita ito, punta kayo sa bagong poetry site ni jet called di-VERSE-ified. tapos bisitahin na rin ninyo ang bagong layout ng kanyang My Life… A Cup of Deja Brew site. may poetry site rin ako kung gusto ninyo ng mga tulang nagwawala – ngyehehe.

2. …you come face to face with midgets. may nakasabay akong mag-asawang unano sa train kahapon. ang suspetsa ko ay kasali sila sa russian circus na narito for a christmas show. it was really weird: tinitingnan ko ang mag-asawa and my head was going left-right-left-right and all the while they had this silly grin. and pakiramdam ko nga ay para akong nasa loob ako ng pelikulang… ano na nga ba yung ginawa ni spielberg na ghost story – ah, putragis!

gumagawa si jet ng maikling bio para sa PINOYEXPATS ni melissa. medyo complicated pala ito. ano ba ang dapat ilagay na qualifications sa bio to describe yourself in the shortest possible way? ang identification mo ba as a person ay dictated ng career? hobbies? pamilya? kung pag-iispan mong talaga, very interesting pala ang thought process involved sa pag-gawa nito. kung ako ang gagawa ng bio, eto ang isusulat ko:

jay has been a systems engineer all his life but all he ever wanted was to become a shepherd or a lighthouse keeper. he is left handed and is partially color blind. his wife jet adores him so much because he is good looking and doesn’t spill his food when he eats… most of the time. he loves to take a bath although there are times when he forgets to brush his teeth. he is always sleepy but sometimes he is hungry.

jet has gone from nursing patients with heart ailments to managing a value-added telco service sales team, Now she’s a stay-at-home wife to her husband, jay, in singapore. asked how she would describe the twists and turns of her career track in one word, she calls it progress. jay loves jet so much because she is loving, caring and has a very hearty laugh that could be heard miles away. she also loves his corny jokes and doesn’t flinch when he farts, even if he farts under the covers.

even after 13 years of marriage, jay and jet still have a great sex life, much to the discomfort of their neighbors.
