Parents

Let me just rant before I leave for Batangas tomorrow morning.

Just a while ago, I had an argument with my mom. She's mad because she doesn't know who I'm going with tomorrow. I remember telling her I'm going with Khryzette and Juno and some other teammates of mine. She said who other teammates. I was like, "Eh hindi mo naman kailangan malaman 'cause they are the only ones that you know." All she said was, "Kahit na."

I really find her irritating when I'm going out cause she has to know EVERYTHING. I understand her naman cause she's just thinking about my safety but she's just too much. She needs to know EVERYONE. I gave her all the names and then she left.

Then she came back in and said, "Alam mo, kung alam ko lang na sa Batangas kayo, hindi ko na kayo pinayagan." I was like "What's the difference?! Nasa south naman pareho." Tapos she was like, "Marami kasing beaches dun tapos high tide and all."


And then I said, "MOMMY! May common sense naman kami. I'm 20 years old! Matanda na ako! Sana marealize mo yun!" And then I didn't look at her after that. She was staring at me for a while then she left. I'm so fed up with my mom being overprotective. I just wish they would trust me and what I'm doing. I know how to take care of myself so I hope that they understand that. I'm 20 years old. I'm independent. Even if I don't show it at home, I'm so mature. I'm actually ready to live on my own already.

I just hate it when they become all so protective. They can't even trust me to go out with my friends. Hello! We have common sense. We know when to swim or not. We know when to go out or not. We think first. We're not in elementary. We're old enough to take care of ourselves. I hope you see that. I can understand if I'm still in High School pero hindi na eh. I'm old enough to make my own decisions.

I hope you just trust me. Please.

Well, this, my friends, is the bad side of being an only child.
Parents will be parents, I guess.

Anyway, I'll be leaving tomorrow and leaving all my problems in Manila. I'm just gonna have fun while I still can.

Wishing for a fun trip tomorrow,
