TOP FIVE SIGNS YOU'VE BEEN LIVING WITH A FILIPINA FOR TOO LONG:


5. You see nothing wrong with eating a single item, like corn, or marshmallows, all day long.

4. You develop an unholy addiction for Arbor Mist.

3. Your entire family suddenly has nicknames like "Apple" and "Pebbles".

2. Somehow, someway, you are "related" to every Filipino you come across.

AAAAANNNNNND

1. Your boss asks you, "Why are you pointing with your lips?"

I will never get tired of these lists.

Your entire family suddenly has nicknames like "Apple" and "Pebbles".

Ha! This is SO true. One of my relatives named her daughters Apple, Berry, Cherry and Peachy. We're really big on themes when it comes to naming family members.

Somehow, someway, you are "related" to every Filipino you come across

But of course. We can figure out how we're related to practically anyone. Like this one is my mother's second cousin's sister-in-law or my niece's stepbrother's cousin. Quick, see if you can name every second cousin you have on both your mother and father's side. I betcha most Filipinos can. *g*

"Why are you pointing with your lips?"

Hee! Because it's much more expressive and faster than lifting your finger to point at something.

What's especially funny is my nephew, who is ten months old, is starting to do it.

LOLOLOLOL.
