Teacher’s Tale #19 Because my students are already in a holiday mode, I opted to give 5 bonus points during their prelims and  said, “Merry Christmas!”  The students answered me back with “Mam, may pa- Happy New Year pa po?”

Mom’s Pinoy Henyo

Daughter Duties #55 While in the mall, Mom is stopped by an acquaintance and she ends up talking to her for 15 mins. Afterwards, she looks at me and asks, “Ano nga pangalan ng kausap ko? Nag-uumpisa sa N yung name niya.” Me: “Nora?” Mom: Hindi.  Comedian.” Me: “Nanette?” Mom: “Maliit at maganda siya.” Me: “Nida?” Mom: “Hindi.  Napapanood ko pa siya ngayon sa TV! Maputi din siya!” - at may kasama pang konting galit kasi di ko nahuhulaan. Me: “Nova?” Mom: “Ayun! Bakit kasi di mo mahulaan agad.” #akoakoakonanaman
