Friday, May 19, 2006 || Enter the bizarre world that is my Family.
- My mother has gotta be the MOST bizarre person on the planet.
*blinks* And to think I thought it was my dad.
My mother and I were talking about my guitar lessons and the conversation somehow evolved into a fight. (?!?)
Mum: "YOU ARE A QUITTER!"
Me: "Ermm, I don't need anybody to teach me how to play the C chord when I already KNOW it okay ..."
Mum: "PRIDE! You are PRIDEFUL! The bible says you MUST NOT BE PRIDEFUL and always have a humble heart!"
"What is the connect---"
"You NEVER listen to me. Oh God, what have I done to deserve this fate? Nobody listens to me. Both my daughters are my failures in life. Oh God ..."
".... Can you stop being such a drama queen? Aiya, it's --"
"AND NOW BOTH MY DAUGHTERS DON'T WANT ME POKING MY NOSE INTO THEIR BUSINESS. Me, as a mother, being labeled a drama queen!"
"I'm not here to digress, I'm here to progre---"
"The worst part is I've really tried my best. And I still failed as a mother. I pray to God that I won't go to hell for my mistakes."
"You've gotta be kidding me! What is the connection lah! Nobody's going to---"
"And there will come a day when the both of you will regret treating me this way. Me, your birth mother, nothing but a MAID. I do the housework, I cook, I do EVERYTHING and everybody treats me like a MAID. *whines*"
At this point, I almost pointed out that she only spends 1 hour on housework and watches wah lai toi for 7 hours everyday, but of course, I didn't. :p
DAMN wtf. I think she must've been PMSing. But she already had her menopause so that can't be it. =.=
Conversation continues, with my mother looking VERY emo and me looking very startled. Usually, at this point, I'd be crying already ... but no idea why I was so collected and calm. I think I was too shocked to react.
"Mummy, please calm down and let's have an intelligent conversation as adults, because --"
"ADULT! YOU! You made SO many mistakes in your life I can't even count them anymore! Oh God ...... if you'd listened to me and not gone into Science stream, you would've gotten straight As like you did in PMR ..... God ...."
"That's unfair okay. I didn't do that badly and my----"
"... And now I receive all the blame. ALL THE BLAME in the world. *tears up* Everybody blames me. Everybody hates me, after everything that I've done. I hope I die young and all of you people will rejoice..."
"O_o Err.............."
PLEASE people, tell me that your mothers are such drama queens as well, so that I don't feel so alone. -____-
Oh yeah, my dad was EXTREMELY impressed by Life college and the staff won him over (and the financial loan + pricings). So I guess that sealed it up. I'm almost regretting, but whaddaya know, I might actually have fun there.
