These are a few of the hilarious things that happened, in my opinion, during my two months trip, the phils to me is always an adventure.

1) My GF said, please dont ask for napkins in the restaurant. Why , i said, .............well, if you ask for napkin they will laugh at you....why, i said.........well, napkins is for feminine needs, diba, sanitary napkin, ........please ask for tissue, not napkin. LOL

2)My GF constantly mixes up he and she........She told me.........I told all my friends, ...........I have a BF in USA, HER name is Mike.
..............NOT HER,,,,,,HE. i told her........ops sory she says.

3) While watching the animal planet channel on Cable, i saw a ferret, wet, climbing around,..........WATS THAT, she said.........A Mouse?
NO i said.............A RAT? .............ROFLMAO.

4)We wer playing video game at the internet cafe..........war games i think she was playing............OH NO, HON THE SNIPPERS IS SHOOTING AT ME..............I never laughed so much in my life, The misunderstandings and misprononciations always keep me rolling.

5) While at the mall in Ermita i was practicing my tagalog , and a crafts salesman we had been talking to who did not speak very good english asked me a question, I tried to ask his name in tagalog,
Ano Pangalan Mo, but it came out garbled since i was nervous........
WHAT , he said?..........Then in english he says. WHATS MY NAME?
my gf thought that was hilarious.

6)While at an internet cafe, i was cloaking my IP address to access a site which is blocked in the philippines. I told my gf, if the cafe knows what im doing they would not be too happy. She leaves , comes back with the cafe manager.......................ummmmmmmm, hello i said. "may i help you sir?", ...........ummm no. i said as i quickly closed all my explorer windows............after the guy leaves i said, HON WHY YOU BRING THE MANAGER , ...i said i dont want them to know what im doing.................OH SHE SAID, SORY i dont understand wat you are saying...................we had a good laugh about that.

Welcome back. The Japanese also mix up he & she. There are no gender specific pronouns in Japanese, in fact no pronouns at all except I and you (and you is used very sparingly, only with some you're very familiar with.) Mr. & Mrs. or Miss. are all the same (the suffix -san or -sama) for men or women, adults or children. So Japanese have a hard time with him & her, he & she. I wonder if Tagalog and Visayan are the same?
