Speaking Up: Parents will be parents, I guess.

Isn't it funny how parents, despite their age, can have wild imagination sometimes??

I just got a piece of my mom's "thoughts" today. It was not a pleasant one. Ugh.

The story goes like this...

Everybody in the house woke up late kanina and so we started the day with devotion, as usual. After that, we had brunch and had a bit of a chat in the kitchen table while gobbling up the all the toast and coffee. I love the conversations I have with my parents, especially when everybody's in a good mood. Believe me, they can get pretty hilarious most of the times, mas lalo na si Tatay. hahaha. (I'm such daddy's girl.) Anyway. We were talking about random things and one of the topics that came across our conversation was the INTERNET. My mom was complaining (nagsusumbong, actually) to my dad about me staying too late in front of the computer during night time. Ako naman, todo deny na inaabot ako ng 4 am (although minsan nangyayari yun. Haha)

Then she was like, "Pa, yan si Keziah, lagi nalang nag-iinternet, hanggang alas-kwatro pa ng madaling araw. Pansinin mo, nag-iinternet siya kapag tulog na tayong lahat dito sa bahay..." I was like, "Oy, oy oy. anung sinasabi mo jan Ma?"

Then all of a sudden, she had that suspicious look in her face...

and I thought, "oh no, where is she going with this..."

and I was like,

"what in the world is she up to now"

My dad was like,

"Uh-huh, keep talking honey"

Then she said, "Hay nako Pa, yan si Keziah, nako! Sigurado ako, may kalokohang ginagawa yan pag tulog na tayo!! Isipin mo ha, hindi talaga siya nag-iinternet kapag meron tayo. Nako! Ikaw Keziah ha! Akala mo siguro hindi ko alam ang ginagawa mo."

I was like, "Whaaaat?? MOOOOM!! Are you trying to say na, I'm into porn?!?!?!"

At that moment I felt like saying

She continued on and said, "O? bakit? Hindi ba? Eh lagi-lagi ka kaya nag pupuyat sa harap ng computer, parang may ginagawa ka na ayaw mo ipakita samin. Umamin ka! Siguro nag-poporn ka talaga no??!!"

After a moment of silence, my dad and I were like,

Poor mom. Pinagkaisahan namin ni tatay. She looked exactly like this:

Hahaha. Anyway. We had a bit of a discussion and I explained that I'm only chatting with a friend every time I'm staying up late, since I couldn't text with that friend 'cause they won't give me a cellphone (Ha. I'm so mean), so I'm like, "You leave me NO CHOICE!!" (haha, yeah. I talk back like a boss). I reassured them though, that I'm doing nothing bad in the internet and that I am most definitely not into sexual networking or any pornographic crap.

Ugh. That conversation was so awkward. My mom is being praning whenever we're using the internet. There was this time kasi when she was browsing some videos in Youtube and I think she came across some videos that were, um, inappropriate(?). She must have thought, "O.O And my kids spend hours in the internet full of THIS?!"

Kaya yun. haha. Mejo binabantayan ako ni mader ngaun. haha.
Ang gulo namin sa bahay noh?
