    One night in Manila (Tagalog)

    Noong minsan sa isa sa mga unang gabi ko sa Manila, gusto kong umalis sa bahay para inumin ang uminom ng Red Horse. Hinanap kong Humanap ako ng taxi at sinabi ko sa driver, "Oy sir, saan po ba ang magandang bar na malapit dio?"

    Kasi, ako foreigner Dahil foreigner ako, naisip niya na pokpokan ang pinagusapan tinutukoy ko. Tapos, agad dumeretso siya siyang dumiretso sa isa sa mga lugar na may daming maraming pokpokan. Nakalumutan Nakalimutan ko na ang pangalan ng banda lugar na yan yun pero, doon sa may daming maraming malaking malalaking "Videoke" bars.

    Pagkalipas 3 o 4 kilometer, meron ko ang naisip ko na may maliit na problema sa pagintindihan pagkakaintindi niya sa sinabi ko tungkol sa papuntahan pupuntahan.

    Pagkatapos, ganito ang naging pinagusapan:

    Sabi ko, "Hey boss, gust gusto ko lamang magkaraoke at uminom ng Red Horse."
    Sabi niya,"Ayaw mong babae?"
    "Hindi po boss, Karaoke at Red horse na lang."
    "Oh, ibig sibihin.. gusto mong lalaki?"
    "Hindi nga.. regular bar na lang."

    Tapos, huminto siya ng inihinto niya ang taksi sa harapan ng isa sa mga bar. Malaki ang bar na 'to pero at parang may daming marami ang pag ibig nag-iibigan (Sorry, I'm not sure what you are referring to when you said 'pag-ibig') doon sa loob pero yung taxi driver made pramis to me ay nangako sa akin na hindi namang pokpokan at regular bar na lang siya.

    Binayaran ko ang taski fare (You could just say "Pamasahe"), nagpasalamat ako sa driver at pumasok ako sa loob ng bar. Agad na alam nalaman ko na nagsinungaling ang driver kasi doon sa loob yung tao sa harap gusto niya ako idikit maliit ng kwan sa camera ng cell fone ko para itago. (Sorry, I don't know what you are trying to imply.) 

    Umalis ako sa bar at tinawagan ko Tumawag ako ng isa pang taksi. Pumasok ako naman sa ibang taksi at sabi sinabi ko sa driver, "Oy boss, dalhin mo lang ako sa bar. Regular bar na lang po, ayaw ko po ang pokpokan."
    Sabi niya, "No problem!"
    Dinala niya ako agad at diretso dumiretso sa isa pang pokpokan.

    Ngayon, wala na akong pang paki-alam. Nabigo ako at pumayat ang bibig ko (Never heard of this before so I don't know how to correct it. Sorry). Pumasok na lang ako sa loob, umupo at binili ko ang Red Horse. Yung Mga babae dyan dun, alam nila na ayaw ko ang pagibig kaya umupo lang sila kasama ko kasi wala iba pang pang ibang customer. Manganda ang panahon (Are you referring to weather?) ko dyan doon, interesante ang mga pinagusapan at may karaoke pala doon. Kumanta ako ng "Harana," para sa mga babae.

    Sa mga bar na ganyan tulad noon, pwede mong malaman dami marami kang malalaman tungkol sa buhay at ang sacrifice (sakripisyo)/pagpapasakit pagpapakasakit. May babae dyan na gusto nila talaga ang trabaho ganyan, tapos meron namang babae wala iba pang pagkakataon, tapos.. at malungkot po 'to, meron namang babae na di nilang gustong gawin ang trabaho na yan yun pero may puwera pera (Did you mean "but it has money? or "they needed money?) at matakot sila para natatakot silang umalis.

    Di mo pwedeng malaman kung ano ang dahilan kung ba't nandyan sila sa bar. Kailangan mong munang mag-mabait maging mabait sa lahat at makikinig sa mga story (Storya/kwento) nila. Pantao sila, tulad mo.

     

    'm not really sure if that's all correct but I hope I got what you wanted to say.

    ood Job! Keep up the Good work! (^_^)v

    My day \(^_^)/ Konnichiwa, minna! \(^_^)/ So this is my second notebook entry! Yay!! I just wanted to share what I did today. Well, for the whole morning until 1 in the afternoon I was asleep. Then when I woke up, I did some chores and listened to music. And with that, I was inspired to draw though it is not perfect. Then after I got tired of drawing, I practiced my Japanese handwriting. My dad then invited me to accompany him in his jogging routine so that's what I did. Hm... I think that would be all haha! I really want to write this in Nihongo but I don't know how! I am really having a hard time creating a sentence and understanding kanji. I don't know when should I use them or what should I use in a sentence. Huhuhu!! I really want to learn Japanese before class starts!! Minna, tasuketekudasai!! (¡°^°¡) If anyone knows how to translate it, please do. Domo arigatougozaimasu.
