Kumustaaaa!


I have noticed that most foreigners (west and east and everywhere) often mistook "kumusta" as single greeting phrase like "Sawasdee" in Pasa-Thai or "Menggalaba" in Myenmar. 

"Kumusta ka" or simply "Kumusta" actually means 'How are you' in Filipino. It derives from the Spanish phrase "Como estas", however, like I mentioned above, they mistook it as a greeting since Filipinos tend to say 'how are you' first when they meet someone they knew.

(my friends sometimes got confused when i replied to them... ^ ^" )

Just leave me be

It's funny, really. When people dislike you they should have just avoid talking to you or look at you and go somewhere far away from you instead of being near you and faking it like they like you and criticise and gossip behind your back. I don't get their "logic". 
If you don't like, please, just leave me be...

Forget Me Not event

Cybird released a story event for Midnight Cinderella a week ago and the first thing I noticed was the title "Forget Me Not".

It may seems nothing out of the ordinary but for Filipinos, well, it does.
Dr. José Rizal, the Philippines' national hero, wrote a book called "Noli Me Tángere". It's was a fictional book with a hidden message of the idea of opposing against the Spanish rule during his time. 
What relates to this is just the Title: "Noli Me Tángere" which means "Forget Me Not" in Latin and the story event of the game was about the Princess had an amnesia and her "prince consort" is internally asking her not to forget him,. Quite interesting though XD .
