Just finished watching 'Real Women Have Curves'.

It's about a plump girl whom her mom calls her 'butterball' all the time. Think it's sweet? Well, think again. She's bright and everything but her mom is one of those who's had a hard life and little education. Frankly, her mom is a pain in the ass till the very end of the story. She denies Ana of education because she wants her to work in the factory, sewing 18-dollar dresses which would later be sold in Bloomingdale's for 600 dollars. All this for the simple reason that she can't let go of her baby. Well, the real reason is disguised in the form of insisting on her living the typical simple life (getting married, have children, yadda yadda) and keeping her with the family. Well. in the end Ana left her family to go to Columbia University, without her mother's blessing. I'd say, big deal. She can give her blessing later when Ana has earned her respect from the world.

Actually, yeah, of course you would feel bad for not getting your mother's blessings to go so far away. But it's just for a moment that your mom couldn't take the fact that you're leaving the hellhole. She'll have to deal with it, while you frolic in the sun. Hehehh…

Well, it turns out, Ana's mom, Carmen, is having a mid-life crisis and menopause. If you're smart, you would've expect these two. There you go, menopausing women are dangerous. They could ruin you emotionally with just their presence near you.Then you'll be reduced to a pile of crying shit wondering why you're mom didn't take more tofu.

But Ana was great. She handled it very delicately but she still fought for what she thinks is right.

And I like that.

Don't get too absorbed watching tv. You'll turn out like me.

And I've watched so many reruns that I can say the next line before them. How sad is that?

I tried smoking tomatoes today. Weird? yeah, that's wat my mom thought too. I kena kau-kau from her ler………hmmm….next time must try stunts like these when she's NOT at home.
