Barbier

Just got home from a night out with Edel and really had a great time with her!

We watched 'Wedding Date' and though it wasn't as great as any other movies about love and weddings, it did set the mood for our conversation the whole night through. The highlight for us came at the end of the movie, as the credits are rolled out.

Right there on the screen...______Barbier. The first name escapes me at the moment but we thought it was funny! Imagine naming your child Barbie Barbier. Hehehe! And what if she married a 'Barbiest'? Mrs. Barbie Barbier Barbiest. Hilarious!!! And what would she name her son?!

Anyway, Eds had to bring a camera at The Fort so we drove there. On the way, she asked me if I am particular with how my future husband would look. For me, it didn't matter as long as the man has character - self-confidence, integrity, etc. He doesn't need to be a head-turner but at least he has to look okay. Then we remembered Barbier. And thus, we coined the term 'barbier' to refer to that kind of man - looks good but not drop-dead gorgeous. Drop-dead gorgeous is 'barbiest'. So-so is 'barbie'.

Until now, I'm laughing my head off. Imagine, using 'barbier' to refer to a man! And if that person doesn't understand the newly coined term, he would think the man we refer to is gay. Hehehe!

Hi Jeff! Yup, okay yung movie. Medyo sablay lang nga. "A woman has the exact love life she wants," I think that's the line. Haba din discussion namin ni Eds dito. (",)

Oh, I forgot to add, after the movie, merong pumalakpak. Hehehe! Grabe! Parang sobrang tuwang-tuwa siya sa movie. (",)
