I was browsing my friendster account last night and i've seen a very familiar blog. "The Wrapper and The Gift". Hhhmm, funny, i have a blog of that title.
And so I scanned it, and yikes!!! Akin nga. Unless yung isinulat yung ni-quote kong kaibigan na si Ms. Pia eh kaibigan at kasamahan nya rin sa office.
The other guy didn't credit me for it. At aaminin ko, parang masama ang loob ko. Mabuti na lang, nabasa ko ang konsepto ng meme sets at chaos theory (hehehe, kung anong relevance nito, mahabang ipaliwanag) kaya tumakbo sa utak ko ang quote na to:
"viator est non gravis , tantum nuntius"*
-------------Frankie, from the Movie: Stigmata
Then, I felt kinda proud. That at least three persons (one in friendster, one made a link in his site, and other reposted the entire blog crediting me) admired my blog enough to be reposted.
Kaya sa mga susunod ba, go on lang. You have my blessing.

*it is in latin meaning "The messenger is not important, only the message". I tried to look for the Aramaic quote (dahil mas astig pakinggan kasi walang vowels) pero di ko makita yung script.

Hahaha! Sadly, meron talagang mga ganun online Mik. But then, diba its said that [and I paraphrase here] 'the purest form of flattery is imitation?' ;D
I should read that blog, must be hella good.
ah, magkakaiba po ung reposted blog.
ung sa friendster = "The Wrapper and the Gift"
ung d2 sa multiply = "Paalam Pluto"
at ung link = "Let's Talk About the "L" Word"
=)
Ok lang yan Miko, ganun talaga...sa sobrang ganda mo kasi magsulat ay they are force to post it on their site... kaya just be proud!
i am proud, thanks.
Ah! Nabasa ko yung blog mo on Pluto kahapon. Heheh. Very entertaining, you have a gift nga naman talaga. Madaldal ka ba in person? Of course, I don't mean that in a bad way ah. Sa ingles na lang, para milder ang dating. You must be very gregarious. :D
baka naman loquacious..haha...
(daan-daan..:)
well, i love late night talks, madalas umaabot ng 4am talking anything under the sun.
but it depends on the other person, or how long i've know him, or the situation.
if he likes to converse like me, then we both talk.
if he is the chatty type, i usually listen
if he is the silent type, i usually talk
if he is has a problem, i listen attentively
Uh, no Third... loquacious, while literally meaning the same as madaldal, carries a negative connotation as well. I meant to ask if Miko is gregarious talaga, as in sociable. Parang may gift of gab talaga kasi blogs nya.
Ah yun na nga Mik! I saw the 'demotion' of Pluto on BBC, CNN, and read about it in the papers and in Newsweek kasi eh. And then I read your blog, which to me turned something I found quite mundane into a very entertaining piece! I [used to] write dati. Kaso... i've been having this big writer's block the size of Gibraltar for some time now. Kaya inggit ako [medyo lang ha] na ambilis mong makasulat about almost anything. I figured you were typing what you would've been saying in a conversation. Heheh. Yun lang po, ang haba na neto. Bow. :D
hehehe, most of the time hindi ko yun magawa. kadalasan kasi, parang binabagyo ng kalokohan ang utak ko, tapos ambon lang ang nasasabi ko, hahaha. pag nagsusulat ako, mas marami akong nakukwento kesa pag nagsasalita. kadalasan nga, paunti-unti lang ang nasasabi ko. example:
miko: Nakakainis naman tong mga baitang ng hagdanan na 'to!
friend: bakit na naman?
miko: masyado kasing magkakalapit ang mga baitang, kaya marami ang hinahakbangan ko.
friend: problema ba yun? e di walk two at a time, skip mo na ung iba.
miko: HUH??!!! Insulto naman yun sa mga baitang na hindi mo tatapakan! Kaya nga sila nilikha para hakbangan mo, tapos you're going to skip!!!
friend: sapakin kaya kita. naku, ewan ko sau mikolito, walang maliit na bagay na hindi mo kayang palakihin.
miko: hehehe.
bow!
Waah! Ang kulit pala kausap! My sympathies to your friend, parang makakarelate ako sa kanya. Hahaha! Joke. O nga naman, I never minded the steps at all before now. But yeah... its a gift nga naman you have.
Hala! I'm guilty, usually iniinsulto ko rin mga baitang ng hagdanan! Hala! Heheh.
hehehe powerful ka kasi kuya miko..
eh uso naman kc tlga piracy sa pinas..im sure d lng naman ikaw ang biktima ng cut&paste na yan hehe..
i like this phrase: viator est non gravis , tantum nuntius..o baka nagustuhan ko lng dahil latin xa (",)
hehehe, i love latin and japanese (including the anime and the people, wahahaha). =)
