I Got It From My Mama

I received a text msg from my Mamà yesterday.

Mamà: I'm coming over this end of the month.
Moi: Good, don't forget to bring my faves.
Mamà: Don't forget to save me some money.
Moi: Maaaa, I thought we've talked about this already. You know I'm broke every end of the month.
Mamà: A lil amount would suffice. "Di jud ka ka afford? bsan pliti" (can't you at least spare me some for the fare?")
Moi: Oh, okay! I thought you wanted to go shopping. hihihi Of course I can afford that. I can even bring you to the poshest restaurant in the city. Modawat mn kaha ka credit card? (Do you accept credit cards?)
Mamà: hahahaha. Funny. You made me laugh.
Moi: Huh?:ha?:

Geeeezzz, She does have a wicked sense of humor don't you think? I didnt get it, really. What's so funny with credit cards? :ayokona:

Man! I think I'm adopted. nyahahahaha. And oh, the credit card? I havent activated it yet because I am sooo effing afraid to splurge on things unnecessary. Crazy! crazy me!
:eheh:

I Am the Queen of Spades

Why? Because the Queen of Spades represents all the old maids in the world. hahaha. mrgreen When I was in Leyte, we had our palms read by a close clairvoyant friend. I know that palm readings, astrology, and other chechebureche are just mind candies for fools. Can you tell me one person who has not made a complete fool of himself? Not even one right? If you are not a fool (or so you think) then you might try to consider assessing yourself again. wink

The night before the palm-reading, I had a conversation with my Ma. She said that how come I wasn't dressed yet, (it's our barrio's fiesta remember?) so I told her that there's no need to rush. Then she blurted, "Mi, I have a feeling that you're going to be an old maid." I paused for like 5 seconds and then rolled on the floor laughing .razz I said "Whaaat? Why do you say so?" She answered "'coz you never talk about guys and stuff and you don't have a boyfriend." wahaha. I said that there is nothing to talk about. I've mentioned a few suitors and I told her that I don't wanna say yes to a guy out of pity. Then she said "Naa diay kay standards?," bwahahaha. Geeez Ma, I know you don't read this but YES! I do have standards. These aren't even high standards compared to others.

Back to the palm reading. Here are some that I can remember. The chiromancer said that:

1. I am frugal - yep, I don't really spend on useless things. Well, except for the Ipanema slippers which I bought just to be "in" and because all of my friends are donning expensive ones. sheesh, I was happy with my Banana Peel. I still use it up to now though. smile

2. There's a guy that likes me soooooo much (exagg) AND for a long time now - hmmm, I have an idea who this guy is, but like I've said, I cannot feel the sparks baby. hihi. sowiii

3. That I am going to meet my soulmate abroad - Wohooo! I knew it! I know I am in the wrong country. hahaha. I dunno, but somehow, nobody has tickled my fancy yet. Well, not counting that one lucky son-of-a-bitch. May his soul rest in peace (joke!) hihi. I should be preparing my Visa now. redface

So Ma, if you are going to give me the money I need, you won't be having an Old Maid for a daughter. hihihi. Lab You Ma!


*One funny thing, the baile (discoral) area was just behind our house and there's this song called "oremus" or such, you know the one with "unod, bukog" lyrics? Yes, that one! My Ma is having a last song syndrome. smile She's driving me and my niece crazy because she sings that effing, stoopid song. "unod, bukog" my ass! hahaha. T'was funny though, considering that my Ma is already 63 yrs. old. wink

A weird family we are and I am so damn proud of it!

Ma, I Lab Yuuu!

While all bloggers are buzzing on their sites regarding Mother's Day, I was arguing with my Mom. mrgreen No major issues involved, don't worry. It's just that I was looking forward to meeting her at Malapascua Island this Sunday. Unfortunately, the weather refuses to cooperate because I heard that there's a typhoon coming in Leyte. I was so pissed since I too am excited to go back to the island and I know it's going to be fun considering that the accomodation is free (our relatives owned a resort there). I am also excited to talk to Ma about her petty quarrels with my father. mrgreen Kinda exciting! Who would've thought that old people still fight on senseless things. Well, my father is a drunkard, hahaha, sometimes that is and my Ma is not liking it as of the moment. So, she told me that she's running away from home. nyahahahaha. OA ha! So anyway, I am more than willing to have her here. That way, someone can finally cook me some scrambled eggs in the morning 'coz I miss them soooo much. It's funny just by the thought of my Ma & Pa arguing. Hahaha. Believe me, ours is not a perfect family but I am proud of their uniqueness. Haven't you guys read about the post concerning my mother's texting ability? Read it here.

So, Ma- even if you admitted once upon a time that you hardly know me because of my going away from home at an early age, I want you to know that I LOVE YOU so much. I love you even if when I uttered these words, all you can say is "hehehe." I love you even if we never spent some good times together. I love you even if our housemaid was the first to know that I had my first menstruation. hahahaha. Even if the maid advised me to sit on a Gabi leaf, I still love you for not being there to see my stupidity. hahaha. Seriously now, I just want you to know that I am very thankful to have you as my mother. I know there are times that you had me wishing for another Mother but I was wrong and stupid. I know you went through a great deal of trouble to make me what I am right now, but I know you enjoyed most of it. biggrin And oh, before I forget, you're baby is now a lady. nyahahaha! You never saw me transform into one but I just want you to know that if ever I want to get hitched, you'll be the first to know. Kidding! Here's a little scrapbook I've made especially for you.


Cheers to all Mothers in the world and to my sister too.

Where na U? Here na Me.

I hate textspeak. I don't use textspeak. I'd rather key in hehehehehe to the up tenth power than typing LOL. I'd rather say "Where R U?" (coz it sounds better and it does make sense) rather than "Where na U?" I'd rather say "I'm here" rather than "Here na ME." Why is it so hard for you guys to just use your own vernacular. Like in our case, Bisaya. Why? 'coz it sounds "so in" like the kikay students who spend most of their time splurging on their parents' money just to be cool? But then again, I don't wanna speak too soon. I just received a text from my Mama this morning. It says:

"Mi, why man di na u txt me? "

I blinked 'coz maybe I was just seeing things but nooooo. My Mama, the Teacher now Principal, is using textspeak? nooooooooooooooooo. wahehehehehehehehe. I wonder how she send messages to her fellow supervisors and subordinates. hahahahahahaha. I was so shocked that I called her and told her why in the world is she using such language. What a way to start my morning, oh I mean what a way to end my morning. hahaha. I just got back from graveyard shift. Toodles, have to doze off to la-la-land and hope to dream about him again, the same dream I had last night or last morning or whatsoever. waheheheheheheheh. char lang.
