Pinoy diary
A pinoy living in New Jersey, USA wrote this in his diary:
Dear Diary,
Dec. 14:
Finally arrived in America for the first time.
News about the possibility of a White Christmas!
Dec. 15:
Wife and I sat by the window all day watching the
snowflakes gently drifting down, covering the trees
and the ground. Like the Christmas card my sister
sent me. Oh, how beautiful!!! (Nicer than the ash fall
of Mt. Pinatubo!)
Dec. 16:
Awoke to a lovely blanket of crystal white snow covering
the landscape. what a fantastic sight! I really enjoyed
shoveling my sister's driveway. It was really FUN!!!
A snowplow accidentally covered up the driveway.
He waved. He reminded me of Santa Claus. I waved
back to this nice citizen and shoveled again...no problem.
Dec. 17:
Wow! 5 more inches of snow! The temperature dropped
down to 5 degrees.The snowplow covered the driveway
again with a compacted snow. I guess I'll have to shovel
again. It's quite fun though. But it is really cold out!!! BRRRRRRR..........
Dec. 18:
The temp went up a little and the snow on the street
turned into a slush mixed with dirt and became
brownish-gray. Then at night, the temp went down
again and became icy. A tree limb snapped and fell
on my sister's new car. WOW, HASTLE!!! More snow
and ice predicted. Sho-shovel na naman ako?!!! Ah leche,
suma-sakit na ang likod ko !!!
Whew... I miss my houseboy so much!!!
Dec. 19:
Putang-ina, ang Lamig!!!! The snow plow came by
2X today. First he covered the streets with "sand",
then came back and pushed the snow and ice mixed
with the dirty sand on the driveway again. Eh, tangina,
ako NA NAMAN ang mag sho-shovel noon eh!!!!!!!!
Ang hirap pala kung araw-araw mong ginagawa!!!
Kung nasa Pilipinas 'to pinag-mumura ko na yung
tanginang driver na yon!!! LECHE!!!
Dec. 20:
Power went off due to the weather and cold.
Sinisipon na kaming lahat dito. Used kerosene
heater which tipped over. Putaragis, nasunog
yung mga kilay at pilik mata ko. Hindot!!!
Bwuisit na bansa ito!!!
Dec. 21:
More snow predicted. Wind chill -7 degrees!!!
Nag li-leak na yung bubong ng utol ko. All the plumbing
pipes are frozen. Naku! hindot, walang pang katulong!
Mukhang ako na naman ang gagawa!!! Tangina, ang
hirap ng buhay na walang maid!!! Pagbumalik pa yung
hayop na snowplow na yon, sa-salubungin ko na siya ng
pala at palakol !!!
Dec. 22:
Anak ng puta, ang ginaw! Inabangan ko yung snowplow,
hinabol ko ng itak at ina-temp kong saksakin yung driver,
pero nakatakas ang kupal. Hindi ko mahabol dahil ang
sakit ng mga daliri, toes at likod ko, at luma-labo ang paningin
ko. Nabubulag na yata ako!
Dec. 23:
Lumamig nanaman!!! Dumami na naman ang SNOW.
Sabi sa tv na a-abot hanggang Abril daw ang winter
season!!! Ano?!! Ayoko na!!!
Inyo na!!!
BUWAKA-NG-INA! KAYO NA LANG DITO. UUWI NA 'KO
SA PILIPINAS!
Lecheng bansa ito!!!
