10 Questions I (Really) Want Answered

I’ve always wondered about a lot of things and why or how they happen. Especially when I’m alone, the mood to become an over thinker consumes me with so much energy that often I become too paranoid and crazy. It helps that my family are a bunch of conspiracy theorists and pseudo omnipotent political analysts-slash-talent scouts who never stop yapping about the world, their views and how to drown those worries away by watching Iron Chef.

10. Why do Pinoys think sex when they hear the sax opening on (Wham) George Michael’s Careless Whisper? Admit it, a steamy bed scene ensues in your head whenever you hear this song. Nevermind that this song isn’t really about sex but almost everyone I know would either blush or say “It’s sexy time!” almost instantly. Because the sax opens the song, people tend to forget about the lyrics and concentrate more on it’s perceived sensuality.

9. Why do we love cooking shows? I love Iron Chef to bits, especially the Japanese version because their chairman is much more energetic and anime-ish. Food is no doubt a basic necessity so it’s no wonder we even bother to watch or buy cooking stuff. But my fascination with cooking shows is beyond their entertainment and ‘necessity’ value: I love it primarily because it’s about food (duh) and it allows me to see myself as a chef. Not that I’ve always wanted to be one but it’s more of a woman thing; that perception of being a good wife entails being good in the kitchen. The perception is a bit out dated but as I come from a traditional Pinoy family, this holds true for me. I know how to cook but only the basic stuff (frying, adobo, chopsuey and nilagang whatever) and I would love to enroll in short baking and cooking courses in the future…if my schedule permits.
