Mama’s quotable quotes part 1

Couple of nights ago…

Roxanne: Dami mo talagang alam Ma…
(trans. You really know a lot Ma.)
Mama: Siguro kung naging tanga lang ako, hindi kami siguro maghihiwalay ng papa mo…
(trans. In case I was dumb, maybe your father and I would not separate)
Me: Bakit naman?
(trans. Why?)
Mama: E kasi, tanga yung ipinalit niya sakin e…
(trans. Because he left me for a dumb person)
Me: Grabe ka naman Ma! Hehehe Bitterneeeeesssss…
(trans. That’s harsh of you Ma, Bitter…LOL!)
Mama: E totoo naman noh, “Behind the success of a man is a woman, behind the FALL of a man is ANOTHER woman.”
(trans. That’s the truth, “Behind the success of a man is a woman, behind the FALL of a man is ANOTHER woman.”)
Me: Uhmmm… Anu nga ulit yon Ma? Hehehe
(trans. Can you repeat it again Ma?LOL!)
Mama: Ako yung behind ng success niya, tignan mo ngayon kung asan na siya…
(trans. I was behind his success and look at his life now…)
Me: Dami mo talagang alam Ma! Hahaha
(trans. You really know a lot Ma! LOL!)
*words that are in the UPPERCASE were pronounced with emphasis.

then, I repeated my mother’s quote for the enth time to memorize it and blog about it. LOL!

I happen to read this quote in one of the text messages sent to me that is why it was partly familiar when I heard it from my mom. This goes to show that our family can joke and be happy still even with these kinds of situations. Oh well, hope you learn something from here. =)
