Garahe ni Gatchie: The Gatchies!

I have two words to describe The Gatchalians, my family from my mothers side: quirky and hilarious! From Nanay and Tatay (God bless their souls), whom I think aren't your typical grandparents; to the Titas and Titos who are the "promotores y consentidores"; to the cousins who will back you up any time and any day; and then to the nieces and nephews, who will bog your mind with their wit and sharp tongues.

And because of them I have no choice but to share my family, The Gatchies, to the world.  Thanks to cousin Marlaine, who is witness to all the shenanigans that happen behind the Gatchalian Green Gate (GGG)!  As for other members of this clan, please feel free to tell me your stories, only funny ones please! Hahaha!

You aaare Ferpek...
Palabas si Marlaine isang gabi, nakabihis at papunta sa gimik:

Tito Junior:   Saan ang lakad?
Marlaine:      Manonood ng Concert...
Tito Junior:   Concert nino?
Marlaine:      True Faith, sa Macapagal...
Tito Junior:   Aaah! yung "woh, wohooow...aleluhuuu, aleluhuhuhuyaaaa..."
Marlaine:      Tito, si Bamboo yun!
Tito Junior:   Ah, si Bamboo ba yun? (sabay kamot ng ulo)


Holiday Cheers!

NetNet:         Ate Marlaine, kelan tayo iinom - sa Christmas o sa New Year?
Tito Joseph: (na hindi namin alam na nasa labas pala ng garahe) PAREHO! Mula Christmas hanggang New Year!
Marlaine:      O ayun, pareho daw!


Bottoms Up Mom!
Marlaine and Lizette, nagiinuman sa garahe.

Pode:     Mama, tulog na tayo!
Lizette:   Kawawa naman si Ninang Marlaine pag iniwan natin dito...
Pode:     Eh basta, naaantok nako!
Lizette:   Sandali nalang, uubusin ko lang ito (pointing to the half empty bottle).
Malapit na o, konti nalang...(lumagok ang Lizette...)
Pode:     Paano mauubos yan, eh kinokontian mo ang inom!

 

Hurry Up Mom!
Late dumating ang mag-inang Netnet at Nicole sa isang kumpulan sa Garahe.

Lola Lod:  Baket ngayon lang kayo?
Nicole:      Ewan ko sa babaeng ito, ang tagal kumilos! (pointing to her Mom!)


A Job Worth Doing Well
Si Nicole, inutusan si Lola Nene na ipagbalat sya ng Butong Pakwan:

Lola Nene:  O, ayan, kakain-kain kayo nyan tapos saken nyo papabalatan!
Nicole:        (may nakitang mga hindi nabalatan) Anubayan?! Magbabalat nalang di pa inayos! Ayan o, may balat pa!
