After a long, hot and dusty ride from the airport, you arrive with your host mother and father to their humble home. "Where do I put my luggage?" you ask them. They tell you to put it near the 'lamesa.' 

Where do you place your luggage near to?

You arrived just in time for 'tanghalian,' or lunch. After you freshen up for a bit, you come to the 'kusina' or kitchen to help out with preparing the meal. You find out that you are having fish. Grabbing your Filipino-English dictionary, you find out that the word 'fish' in Filipino is...

What a lovely meal you had! After washing up, you join the family's youngest daughter in the living room. 

She is drawing with crayons and you want to draw with her. 

She smiles at you and tells you to grab a 'papel.' Quick, what is she telling you to get?

As you are drawing a house on the countryside, the little girl asks you to please pass the crayon that is colored 'asul.' What crayon is she asking you to give her?

After you have finished your work of art, you and the little girl display it on the fridge door. "Are you hungry?" the little girl asks. You are. You get the bread while she gets the cheese spread. But do you know what the word 'cheese' is in Tagalog?

You hear a tricycle stopping in front of the house. You greet your host sister with a badly pronounced "Kamusta!" and give her a hug. She just came back from school. You found out that your host sister is OLDER than you. What would you call her by?

As she enters the door, her pet 'pusa' rushes to her and rubs against her leg. What kind of animal is a 'pusa?'

You quickly become friends with the host family's eldest daughter. She invites you into her room, to help with homework. You absently ask what day of the week it is and she says it is "Lunes". What day is it?

After trying to helplessly solve maths equations, you and the host sister call it a day. "What can we do now?" you ask her. "What about karaoke?" she suggests. Wow! You absolutely LOVE to sing! As you head to the living room to fire the karaoke machine up, you wondered what 'sing' is in Tagalog. 

Whew! Your throat is sore from all that singing - but at least you had lots of fun! Your host sister promises that she will take you to Jollibee on the weekend. You give her a thumbs up - but you have absolutely no clue as to what this "Jollibee" is! What can it bee?
