Reason to learn French: Patrice Olivier
Patrice Olivier is the tallest player on the Philippine Volcanoes team at the Borneo 7s, and he’s still growing. And he hasn’t filled out yet. “How tall are you?” I asked.
“One point 93 meters,” he said.
“How much is that in feet?” I went on.
“I do not know the English system,” he replied. Of course. He’s French.
So I converted it myself. “You’re six feet, four inches tall,” I told him.
“So I say six-four?” he asked.
“Oui.” Then again, Patrice is an argument for the metric system.
The knee socks are adorable.
We predict a spike in enrollment at Alliance Francaise.

Ang smexy ng French language!
I therefore conclude that only Patrice and the rest of the Philippine Volcanoes can pull of this look: shirt, somewhat short shorts, green knee high socks :)
Pag pinagsuot mo ako niyan, magmumukha akong berdeng medyas na tinubuan ng tao!

On the subject of knee socks: Knee socks sa kanya, pero pag ako ang nagsuot, siguro magiging thigh-high yan.

You’re a star, Jessica. Muli, taos-pusong pasasalamat. Busilak ang iyong kalooban.
Should Harry decide to partake of your hopia, I will endeavour not to be jealous & churlish about it.
Your hopia certainly deserves it.
