Haikus for Aunt Bening

See young Benjamin
Talking running and whining
Giving you headache

See my uncle Joe
Wrapping packing and working
Provide everything

Fortunate auntie
Cooking cleaning and driving
Living in Fairfax

Wonderful auntie
Wish you healthy and beauty
Happy birthday too

now only u know i'm sucha SWEEEEET angel arrr? aiyo.

my aunt is from phillippines (until now i'm still confused of how many 'l's and 'p's and whether it has 's'!). i have never heard her listen to any tagalog songs before (maybe she doesn't have the CD) and so i purposely downloaded some tagalog songs, english songs sang by phillippines artists (lea salonga is one of them) and BURNT her a CD. ah...a surprise gift for her ;) remember 'dahil sayo' (bbkk played that in 'asian selection')? what a lovely song. i got an acapella version of it, whoaaaa...made me so sebak. although i don't understand tagalog, but i KNOW music - the melody made me so sebak.

dahil sayo means 'because of you'. my aunt told me. she called me, in tears today! after hearing it, in the compilation CD i made her. gee...i (successfully) moved her to tears with my 'cheap' CD! even a bmw convertible didn't make her cry! ;)
