Jade at the Movies 2
Inside the theater, Marish held their french fries while Jade held their nachos.

During this week’s American Idol performance episode, Jade commented, “Ano ba naman ‘yan!? Hindi naman pang-contest piece ang kinakanta n’ya,” referring to Big Mike’s rendition of Eleanor Rigby.

Net
As he was sorting his laundry, I told Ronald, “Dapat yung mga ganitong mga sweater nilalagay mo sa…”
“Fish net! Oo alam ko na ‘yun!” he finished my sentence off.
“Sasabihin ko sana lundry net, pero kung gusto mong manghuli ng isda, eh ‘di sige.”

Didn’t
“I didn’t (di-dint) do it!” Uttered Ronald, my flatmate.
