Text Talk - a conversation

for isah. (natandaan nanaman kita and your txt encounters with... ehehehehe wag na patayin mo pa ko...)
_ _ _ _ _ _ _

"kumain na u?"
(napatingin ako sa kapatid ko) "huh?? 'who ARE you and what did you do with my sister?!"

"baket?"
you used TEXT TALK!! on ME?! sacrilege!!!!!

"anong text talk??? ~ha?! whadidisay?!"
duh? 'kumain na u?'

"nge... so?"
so its bad!!! text contractions nga napupunta na sa mainstream life... pag nag-ttype, sulat, etc. di na marunong mag-spell mga tao. pati ba naman pagsasalita...

kumain na u
oo, eat na me

wait u jan ha? punta na me.
kk ingats u

"hahahahaha! di naman ako ganyan noh!"
but you slipped! yan na ata tagalog version ng mga airhead-bimbo-american impressions --"like, y'know, we should be, like, in the mall having our nails done or something." (sabay jiggle of the boobs and flip of the hair)

"yah, like, pay attention driving, like, we might hit something y'know..."
che. basta. you know what I mean.

here na me, san na u?
late me eh, hintay u, lapit na me.

"some people think its cute, parang pa-sweet nga dating eh"
ahhh ewan!!! dpende siguro. ok lang minsan pero pag ganyan mag-text ALL THE TIME? pano pag bad-mood ka? its like someone laughing when you're having a bad day! it frustrates the hell out of me... if I EVER go for a guy who texts like that, bonk me over the head with a cell phone... sweet can get irritating after a while. anyway, we're predisposed to diabetes, we cant handle sweets for long. (laughs)

"sure, sure. tingnan lang natin..."
sira! kaya nga tirahin mo ko ng cellphone eh! landline kung di ako madala!

"hahahaha! sabi u yan ha? hahahaha! pissed na ba u? near home na ba us? wahahahahaha!"
grr. che! (change topic) oi, tinanong mo ba si ed kung pano naging sila? I asked her kung pano nanligaw yung guy-- sabi ko- "ano? tinanong lang ba nung guy: 'ikaw na ba? ako na ba? tayo na ba?' ?!" hehehe... natawa ang bruha. tapos sabi niya basta raw approve na ang friends niya kya naging sila. i thought that was DUMB. so sabi ko- "ano ngayon kung approve sila? sabi lang ng friends mo 'BY THE POWER VESTED IN ME BY OUR FRIENDSHIP I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU BOYFRIEND & GIRLFRIEND!'?"

hahahaha di na tumigil sa kakatawa ang sira.

"hahahahahahahaha!!!! u na, me na, we na?"
tama na nga yan. I shouldnt have brought it up. 'shut up na u, baka ma-pissed na me... ma-waiting u ng jeep der sa kanto.'
