Libingan

True story: one of the artists at work wanted to get off early because he had to go to his Lola's "LIBINGAN" and being stressed that day I did one of my "Danni translations" in my head and thought It meant party --- (the logic)

LIBINGAN > LIVING > LIFE> BIRTHDAY

Plus he didn't seem sad. So I told him to finish the ad first then he could leave.

Wow they must've thought I was a bitch. Only later on, at around 11 pm, after he did everything did I let him go. My producer at that point mustered up some courage to ask me why I hadn't let him go to the funeral of his grandmother.

I was so upset at my producer for not having translated "LIBINGAN" for me.

Dagalog fail!
