Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
When it’s midnight and all of a sudden, a Filipino telemarketer calls if you want to buy something or something regarding your Filipino tv channels.
When there’s Lechon at a party and everyone starts taking pictures with it. Then everyone attacks it when it’s time to eat.
When you’re watching travel shows where the host goes to the Philippines and they COMPLETELY butcher the words.
(For those living in America or anywhere outside of the Philippines)
Noticing that the Philippines hardly ever comes up in your History books or classes. And whenever they do, you know you get a tiny bit excited!
When you’ve mastered the technique of eating with your hands.
When you speak to your parents in a mixture of English and some Tagalog words.
When your mom lives even longer in US and still cannot pronounce english words and it comes out to be hiphiphoptamus when its suppose to be hippopotamus.

When you and your whole family get excited that there’s a Filipino/someone that could potentially be a Filipino is on American TV.
