In this very taxing life that we are leading (yes folks, contrary to popular belief, even in the southern tip of Luzon where butandings breed, tricycle is the most common means of transportation, the beach is just 10 mins away and where the most spectacular sunset can be witnessed), icebreakers are more than appreciated. Here are some of our bloopers just to lighten your moods….
1) One evening, my husband just came from closing one of our grocery stores when he called my attention:
Gerry: Be, kumain ka ng junkfood noh?
Keng: Huh? di ah! pano mo nasabi?
Gerry: Bakit may Nova dito sa basurahan?
Keng: Huh?
Gerry: The TRUE??!!
Keng: (napaisip ako…parang may mali…sabay tawa) Be, hindi ako kumain niyan! Bhala ka kung ayaw mong maniwala. It’s your LOST!!!!
Sablay uli!
2) Gerry and I singing a Barbra Streisand song, That’s All I Ask of You…
Keng: No more talk of darkness, forget these wide-eyed fears Im here…
Gerry: …now that i love you….
Keng: hahahah! imbento ka be!….now that i found you!!!!
(ngeee…nothing can harm you pala! SABLAY na naman)
Hahaha! At least we have fun laughing at ourselves…try niyo, it’s a good bonding activity =)
PS. This is not my normal self. I had been known to be hypercritical when it comes to English and Grammar. (right???) Must be the political stress our government is causing….

Huwaaat????? Ang bilis ng mga pangyayari…mommy na ko! I found out about this pleasant but equally stressful surprise last Sunday, August 7. Actually, natuwa ako but can’t help but freak out! Naisip ko, am I really ready for motherhood? Natakot ako para sa sarili ko at para sa baby. The day before I took the pregnancy test, kinareer ko pa ang pag badminton. Uh-oh…so paranoid nako di ba, dahil baka napahamak ko pa ang baby. Ngunit subalit datapwa’t Linggo noon, di agad kami nakapagpatingin sa obgynecologist (please check spelling). So wait ang beauty ko overnight loomed with questions like "healthy kaya si baby? magiging normal kaya ang delivery ko o CS? naku, baka naapektuhan na to ng sangkatutak na pepsi na ininom ko? lalaki kaya to or girlash? kambal kaya? hmmm…chinito ba to na nagmana sa Go or does it have eyes like mine, kwago-like nonetheless tantalizing - a mark of a true-blue Lustestica?" Sabay dasal ako kay Lord hawak ko ang kamay ni Gerry…"Lord, thank you for giving us this precious gift of life, although it came sooner than we expected. Please guide us to do what is right for our baby. Continue to take care of us and our loved ones. Amen."
The next day, we went to a family clinic referred by my tita who is a nurse. Ok naman ang clinic, pero siyempre, comparatively mas maraming ok jan sa Manila. Bahay kasi to ng obgyne, si Dr Auxillos. Pero may clinic talaga at ang daming nakapila! My goodness, sa hirap ng buhay ngayon, ang dami pang nanganganak! We waited for almost an hour, paalis na nga kami kasi may appointment pa si hubby nang dumating siya. At inuna na niya ako. (mabuti na lang at badminton-mate pala ni Gerry si Doc) So interview, interview, kapa-kapa sa puson, check ng bp…ok na! Di namin alam kung exactly ilang weeks na dahil irreg ako. So until I have my ultra sound, the baby is 1-2 mos old. Buti nalang hindi na lumampas dun kasi 2 mos ago lang kme kinasal (wink!) =)
So ngayon, ang saya ko! Hahahaha! Mommy na ko and I drink two glasses of Anmum everyday. I have my multivitamins and folic acid - for baby’s brain development. Sabi ni Gerry dapat daw uminom din siya nun…hahaha! too late =)
Si mama, ayaw magpatawag ng lola, gusto niya Grammy. Eh pano si papa? Grappy? ahahaha! Violent reactions ang mga tita kong dalaga…lola na sila! Aminin niu na, talagang matanda na kayo tita! Ang cousin ko who was born last month lang, tita na rin! Mga soon-to-be ninongs and ninangs….prepare.
The biggest question is: so diet na ba si hubby for 8 mos??? NO =) Pwede naman daw as long as comfortable pa for both partners. For some reasons, nakakatakot din i-try eh. We have to explore different positions pa. hehehe. Matinding research work ito. Any insights from my mommy friends? =)
Hay, Supersized Keng na ako. Wala nang magkasyang damit. Kahit ilang months pa lang, malaki na ang tummy ko (dati pa naman eh). But I have this very valid excuse why I am such a fatso already. Hmmm…mag maternity dress na kaya ako? Excited. At tinatakot pa ako ni Gerry ng mga stretch marks at darkened underarms and singits. Eh ano, at least may contribution na ko sa mundo. Ang saya! Scary, pero masaya!
