P.I - Its ok your sister doesn't mind...from someone I once knew..
Ok, I'm stationed in Japan, during my first year there, we make a vacation trip to the Philippines. We are excited , the wifey and of course the kid..and before we go I prepare myself,. What do you mean? Well I wanted to look good and feel good. I mean it's the first time ever seeing and meeting my long lost relatives, and of course I wanted to make a great first impression so for months 3 to be exact I keep a strict diet plan and do alot cardio vascular training , running , dancing , boxing at the base gym in Misawa , Japan. I also lifte weights and so on and so forth . I looked pretty good or atleast better than the three months prior.
We get there , it's freakin Hot in the P.I. it's a good thing I trained , because the heat was unbearable and made me tired. T shirts were the name of the game for me from that point on.. The problem is I'm losing alot of water weight and wifey thinks by baggy shirst are not attractive. So what do women love to do,.yes. shopping.. So off we go to Baguio , her home town. We go shop to shop and finally findd a place. The problem is its a small shop barely able to fit just the three of us there. Theres no dressing room.. it's like your trying things on right in front of the sales person , who is a attractive filipina.. Ok, I find some really cool shirts and I'm eyeballin this attractive young girl,My wife asks"Where is the Dressing room? in her native illocano dialect , remember there is over 100 dialects of tagalog in THE P.I. in just a one hour drive you can have a completely different dialect . Panaga-latok- visayan , illocano etc.. Well back to the story..
The women says there isn't really a palce to change , you can change or try out shirt in front of me , I sure your sister doesn't mind? She looks at my sister ah she thought ? My sister or my newly wed wife that looks very young in fact there is a 10 year difference, i know cradel robber ., child molester..
Well my wife looks at her and says in illocano " I'm not his sister , I;m his asawa(wife) , the girl blushes and then says sorry mam , sir , I thought she was your sister, because she looks so young and I , meaning me look older.. Needless to say , we walk out of the shop , but I sure wanted those shirts , I think wifey was more upset I was staring at this young thang , than the actual comment she made.. But another story in the life of the Source.. The Lord must have a great sense of humor , because he keeps having the Source go through so many stories and ordeals, Untill the next blog , Have a great day ! The Source @2010 productions .
