pantutut

yan ang tawag sa kin ng mga kamag-anak ko(father's side) sa cavite. pantutut. ambaho no? haha. tapos sa mga kapatid ko, perendos at perenseng. i have no idea where they got these names from. ung isang cousin namin, bindonggo. ung tatay ko taring (my dad's real name is ceferino, nicknamed efren). haha. i know, we're just weird like that.

so i was thinking about the names i go by or get called by other people.

e.j.- my name's initials.  from edren joy. this is how my other relatives call me. i consider this my decent "for-relatives" nickname. because pantutut just sucks. really.

edren - my first name. a mash-up of my parents name: eder and efren. this is how GS/HS friends call me.

ate lily - how my cousins from my mother's side calls me. short for "ate lilitsunin ka na sa sobrang taba mo". because all my cousins from my mother's side has stick-thin bodies.

edz - simula ng mauso ang 1 syllable nicknames nung second year high school. this is how my close friends from HS calls me. pati college friends/acquaintances and everyone i met after that. kasi pag iniintroduce ko ang sarili ko as "edren" di magets agad ng ibang tao.

darren - eto medyo nakakahiya. some HS friends used to call me this. i refuse to elaborate. :P

babs - how me and some of my closest HS friends: she, chast and jovz call each other.obviously short for baboy. :P

ligaya - my stat 125 classmates called me this. because i mentioned that i hate the name joy and will never have that as a nickname. so, led by marlon, they decided to call me ligaya instead.

patty - short for patabain. was called this name by the members of P family. the family consists of shayne - nanay pinky, her then-boyfriend kuya allan - tatay pitsog, aster - pangs, lai - pranny, docs - pervy and ivy - porky.

budz - mga buddies ko sa angkan. jay, rap, mimay, oui. pero ito na din ang tawag sa kin ng housemates minsan.

ebren - isa pang tawag ng housemates. para instead of edz eh ebz ang itawag nila sa kin. what is it with people and pagpapabaho ng pangalan ko? :P

friend - how me and my closest sitel-maa friends jayson and sharon call each other.

montoya/pare - my sitel-cr "pares" pan and anievas. we call each other pare or by the last names.

bitu - ako si b2. si irma ang b1/biwan dahil magkadugtong ang bituka namin at palagi kaming pareho ng naiisip. nagkakatinginan na lang kami sa floor at tatanungin ko cya bigla na "naiisip mo ba ang naiisip ko biwan?" to which she will reply "sa palagay ko nga, bitu." and much, much, much more often than not, we are thinking of the same thing.

mare - my teammates from team jean: irma (ulet), shyr, lv and marge.because we are all ninangs and ninong of shyr's baby, mackoy.

bords - tawagan namin ng closest guy friends ko sa training sa ventus na sina joey at steve. from the spoof of 300 na napag-usapan namin habang pauwi kami galing office.

renren - how my closest CVG friends: pipay, drei aki and joan calls me. we call pipay - fifi, drei - dede, aki - kiki, joan - jojo. we will also all respond to being called "mama".

panget - how my little sis and i call each other. that's how sweet we are as sisters. hehe. walang basagan ng trip. :P
