i am still unable to compose the perfect message for my "ogie diaz". *sigh* so i guess i have to settle with a blog entry regarding the ups and downs of having an incredibly "involved" mother.
pros:
i never have to worry about dealing with grown-ups, whether it's just the irritating saleslady who won't pay attention to me or doctors who ask the most personal questions.
money is never an object. when you're with mommy, there's no such thing as budgeting.
i can get away with every single gimmick, no matter how late or how far as long as i use our car.
98% of the time, i can get ANYTHING i want.
i know..i'm spoiled as hell. but then again, there are downsides of having a full-time housewife as your mother.
cons:
she can get really clingy at times. (and even demands you to go out with her..you do get bribed for it though.)
she's sometimes too sensitive regarding you having a life apart from her. (i didn't go home for a day and a half because of a project and she's already telling my bestfriend i don't want to go home anymore.)
she can get controlling over the most personal things about you. (she got angry and didn't speak to me for a long while just because i had my hair cut without telling her. and yes, she answers for me as though she and i have the same menstrual cycle.)
all in all, having mommy is THE greatest thing on earth. but then when you think about all the freedom you could be experiencing..well, that's another story. still glad she's there to support you even if you're absolutely DEAD WRONG. hehe.
just wish i could go the ob-gyne on my own. hahaha. un lang pala. ;P
