| You Know You're Filipino IF... 1. You want to be a dancer, a singer, or an actor, even though you have a day job as nurse, a security guard, or an accountant. 2. A member of your family back home is a politician or a movie star. 3. You're not afraid of black people; in fact, you wish you were black. 4. You don't care if you are superior to all other Asians or not, because being Filipino is just cool in itself. Wayz To Tell If You're at A Real Filipino Birthday Party... *Most of these we had experienced it at a filipino party we had attended. 1. Some of the guest didn't bring a gift, but brought extra uninvited kids. 2. When the cake says "Happy Birthday Totoy!" instead of the child's real name. 3. The party is at Chuckie Cheese, but they brought their own food, cake, and a piniata. 4. It's a child's party, but there are more grown-ups than children. 5. It's "Totoys" 1st birthday and the party is pansit, lumpia, puto and 10 case of beer. 6. For entertainment, instead of playing pin the tail on the donkey, there is usually a televised baseball, football game, or a live fight. 7. They don't sing Happy Birthday, instead everyone is playing mahjong. 8. The party was over at 5:00, it's 10:00 and the party is just starting. 9. You find out from Tito Boy that Uncle Nonong is taking viagra. 10. The host calls someone who's on their way and tells them to stop and get some tortillas and ice. 11. The guests start arriving and the hostess disappears to get ready. 12. You hear someone go up to the birthday child and say "Totoy, ang laki mo! I'm going to have to get you something next week when I get paid." 13. The party is Saturday, and you get a call from the hostess Friday night saying, "I'm giving Totoy a birthday party tomorrow at 3:00." 14. Some guests bring gifts that are still in a store bag unwrapped. 15. There always seems to be more family than friends at the party. 16. You have the party over at your brother's because he just bought a new house and he has a pool. 17. The cake didn't come from the store; it came from the mother of the comadre of your friends's sister who makes really good cakes. 18. You are told you have to save your plate and fork you ate your food with, so you can eat your cake. 19. Someone calls and says they can't make it, but asks that you save them some cake. 20. Guests are wrapping up cake to take to Tatay, Chading, Girlie, Tita and Nining. 21. The party music is coming from a small boom box. 22. The birthday child is dressed from head to toe in Tommy/Polo. 23. It's Totoy's party, but since his cousin Jinky is there and her birthday is in a few days it becomes Totoy's and Jinky's Party. Filipino Automobile 1. You own a Mercedes Benz and call it "chedeng." 2. You own a huge van conversion. 3. Your car chirps like a bird or plays a tune when it's in reverse. 4. Your car horn can make three or more different sounds. 5. Your car has a curb feelers on it. 6. You hang a rosary on your car's rear view mirror. 7. You have those air fresheners in a bottle. 8.

It was an African man, Mexican man, and a FIlipino man. The African man began making conversation by telling the other two men that his country had a lot of pride. The Mexican man said his coutry had a lot of pide things too. And then the Filipino man said his country had a lot of pride things too: fried chicken, fried shrimp, fried squid, and fried fish!!! |
