This Filipino Girl enjoyed the former SNL Stars

16th of February

Saturday night date with my American Hot Lover Husband at Moon Palace Cancun Mexico.

During our stay at Moon Palace we received  $1500 worth of credits that you can use for extra services , entertainment, or souvenir shopping.

We used the $300 credit to watch the Former SNL Stars:  Jon Lovitz, Chris Sattan, and Tim Meadows.

Before the show, there was a cocktail party and a lot of people came to watch the SNL stars.

The show was fun but there was a drunk man sitting behind us who kept laughing like a hyena! So, we just left early, before my husband gives him a swift kick in the butt!

Filipino and Dog 24/7 Bonding

As I've said on my previous blog posts, this is my very first time having my own dog.

My husband got us an English Springer Spaniel from North Dakota and we named him Shadow.

Shadow is a very loving dog who always want to be around with people. Having him has completely changed my feelings towards dogs.

Back in the Philippines, I grew up with dogs at my grandparents house. We call them "askal", they are outside dog and most filipinos don't treat them family. Askal dogs are feed with human food in the Philippines, no toys, & no chewing sticks.

When an english springer spaniel puppy came to our family! He's been around me like 24/7. Shadow is a good companion that stays beside you in sickness and in health.

Living a life in America, especially states like Montana can be lonesome and too quite. You barely see people from your neighborhood during a long winter season. It honestly helps a LOT having a dog as a companion. You can at least say something like sit, come, go get it, and NO! lol

And just so know, dogs are very smart, and they can be really good dogs if trained well.

To filipinas married to a foreign man,  if you live in places na parang nasa toktok ng bundok, Get a Dog! :)

Leron Leron Sinta Dance Practice

Filipino Cultural Dance - Leron Leron Sinta Dance Practice with Filipino Dance Group "Pacifica".

Leron, Leron Sinta Lyrics

Leron, Leron, sinta
Buko ng papaya
Dala dala’y buslo
Sisidlan ng sinta

Pagdating sa dulo’y
Nabali ang sanga,
Kapos kapalaran
Humanap ng iba.

Halika na Neneng, tayo’y manampalok
Dalhin mo ang buslo, sisidlan ng hinog
Pagdating sa dulo’y uunda-undayog
Kumapit ka Neneng, baka ka mahulog.

Halika na Neneng at tayo’y magsimba
At iyong isuot ang baro mo’t saya
Ang baro mo’t sayang pagkaganda-ganda
Kay ganda ng kulay — berde, puti, pula.

Ako’y ibigin mo, lalaking matapang
Ang baril ko’y pito, ang sundang ko’y siyam
Ang lalakarin ko’y parte ng dinulang
Isang pinggang pansit ang aking kalaban.
