To My Mami


They say that we get to have our 2nd mothers in school and they are our teachers. I say, I also got my 3rd and almost-real mother in College. But she’s not a professor or just a mother to me. She’s actually a best friend, an older sister (sometimes my twin or even younger: D), an adviser, and a sister-in-Christ. She has multiple roles in my life that to sum it up, she’s an important person, one of the closest in my heart.

                Today is her birthday. I’m not particular with her age, but I’d say she’s not growing any older. Her advanced years of wisdom and experience never hindered her from relating to us: the less experienced.

                Since she was born on the 18th of April, I’d give 18 messages for the lover of words herself. (In a stream-of-consciousness order :D) I do hope to get an extra allowance for this :D


To my (almost-real) Mami,
1.       God sent you to complete the mother-daughter relationship I never fully had. Your concern and presence always made me feel that I am a loved daughter.
2.       We, the royal family, are blessed to have the “pretty genes” that run in our bloodline and in our chromosomes because of you! :D
3.       Speaking of pretty, you do look pretty in your new hair-do J
4.       Our favorite haven (NBS) and your favorite spot (near the shelf of classic books) would always hold my favorite memories of mother-daughter crazy, fun and “intellectual” times.
5.       McDo: I will always love this FASTfood chain because ironically, we always had our LONGEST “brain-twisting” talks here.
6.       Mami, we’ll solve the “us problem” of the world right? Can’t wait to continue our shared diary! :D




7.       The best thing about our mother-daughter relationship is that though it may not be real-life, it’s the ideal J
8.       Mami, I’m trying to be impulsive here (I’m in a computer shop) but I think it’s definitely hard. As hard as you trying to determine whether you’re reflective or impulsive. :D
9.       Probably when I was born I had a part of your brain and a piece of your heart, that’s why we often think and feel the same.
10.   You are the best mirror I can look into J
11.   Today, I prohibit you to frown and be “emo”!
12.   I am looking forward to another overnight in your house, wherein we could watch a movie while I’m battling against sleepiness. We could watch A Crazy Little Thing Called Love and I’ll cry over again.


                             

13.   Jane Eyre has bound us together: in our dear admiration for Charlotte’s great novel and for our UNFORGETTABLE NOVEL REPORT in English Literature. I surely owe our beautiful presentation to your nocturnal and artistic skills. And I also thank you for understanding your sleepy-head daughter! J
14.   Writing, aside from thinking, is another thing we enjoy in common. I want to read your new write-ups Mami. I also pray we’ll write a book together based on the lessons (recently on paradigm shift) that we’ll glean from our shared diary.
15.   I pray that your love life will not continue to wait. I know that we (your daughters) have our pseudo-daddies but I really pray a real one and the best partner for you J Of course, if one of our pseudo-daddies is the one, I pray that lightning (God, in this matter) shall strike him to make him realize he doesn’t need to look far. :D
16.   I know that you’re my Mami who loves collecting (superior to reading) books and I love the way you really invest your money in them!
17.   We are the slow-readers with deep comprehension, field-dependent with deep concentration and these prove the “Like mother, like daughter” cliché.
18.   I intentionally did not greet you through a text message (aside from the fact that I rarely have a load :D) and I want to greet you here. HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY, BLESSED BIRTHDAY MAMI! I love You!





P.S.
                I pray that these words are enough to let you love me more so that like my sisters, you’ll buy me a new phone. Haha! Smile Mami! :*
