confuse as ever

I am confuse.

REAL CONFUSE.

Why?

I will tell you exactly why.

Unlike the normal family, my dad is always the sensitive one and my mom is always the logical one. I, of course, follow in my mom's footsteps to being more the logical type. (or so thats what I think)

My mom came back from driving Charlie to art lessons and she was sharing about this recent wedding she went to. She was sharing how she was touch by the groom's speech and how he doesn't know any Chinese but he used pinyin to write all his words... and how he cried during his thank you speech...

(hint: my mother is the type of person who doesn't get excited when there's a birth... cause she knows the baby will die! seriously these words came out from her mouth before!) and she is also the one that took 1 day off for her father's funeral. plainly spoken.. she is not the type to be TOUCH BY ANYTHING!

I was sitting there and I was kinda like.. uhh.. whats the big deal? a lot of CBC does it now. and its not like the groom is a white guy who speaks like NO CHINESE.

she starts going off about how she's been touch by what the guy did...

I just sat there with my eyes popping because my mother for 23 years in front of me... telling me she's been touch? that neverrr happens to my family. like NEVER! well probably from my dad.. but neverr with my mom.

My mom was the one that told me that big kids don't cry in public places. The one that told me that to succeed and not be patronize by men is to be stronger than them. and yet.. she's sitting there getting upset because i told her i wasn't touch and the reality that a lot of grooms do cry at their own weddings and write pinyin on their speech.

yahhh.. mothers are weird. she has been totally frying all the rules of life she ever taught me.

what am i suppose to do now? with an emotional father AND mother...

good thing i am leaving soon.. *sigh*
