Funny No. 1 - Broken Broken Sleep

Last Saturday, I was trying to make the kids sleep early to get them used to sleeping early and waking up early in preparation for the 1st day of school for the 2nd term on Monday. But my son slept during the 530pm mass,woke up at around 8pm and was having a hard time to sleep. My daughter and I fell asleep at 9pm, and I was surprised to find out that my son was still not asleep and it was around 130 already. So I told him " Ben ha, sirang-sira na ang tulog mo". Then he said" what did you say Mum?" I said "Never mind Ben, just sleep". He said" No Mum I heard you, you said BROKEN BROKEN SLEEP. My mind was saying "Huwat? Tama nga naman ang translation sa English". And we both laugh really hard.

hi, napadaan lang from jinkee's blog, taga auckland din ako. iba talaga pag dito na sa nz lumaki ang anak natin, may 'lost in translation moments'. minsan yung isang anak ko masakit daw ang tiyan so sinabihan ni misis na dumapa sa kama. aba't nakita namin na nakaluhod! sabi sa amin "I'm nakadapa naman ah" ahehe.

saan ka sa auckland, sa shore ka din ba?
