Unknown Mami Gone Viral?

by UnknownMami on June 15, 2010

I’m vlogging! When I was in Miami, Carrie, one of the lovely writers of Tiki Tiki asked me to tell a story about my mother on camera. Perhaps, it was the heat or giddy atmosphere, but she didn’t have to twist my arm for very long. Today, she has posted the video and I would love it if you would go check it out, give Tiki Tiki some love, and let me know what you think. Click here to see the video!

That looks like it was part of the fun Miami trip. You sound like someone I used to know. I love your voice.

Just watched the video…that is such an adorable story Mami! I can relate, because my mom speaks English, but sometimes things still get lost in translation when she applies her Tagalog to things. So funny! It's sweet though that she missed you that much.
Trophymama

Cute story, and a sweet mama! I must confess that when I read your blog, your voice/accent in my head is that of 'Gloria' from Modern Family. Turns out I was completely wrong!
Eva Gallant

Poor Mamma. She meant well!
dwmatty

Funny story. You sound great though.

Loved it! Especially hearing your voice. Your mom is so sweet.
lisleman

That was nice to hear your voice. Nice story. Those stories about your mom are some of the best.
What don't you carry your favorite paper bag with you? You should for times when video cameras are rolling.

Just think into the future and over on Put Pie's blog, she writes funny stories about her Mami who wore a bag on her head.
Tina

Awww….that was so sweet!
And now I will say "bad girl! you shouldn't have told her! Sheesh!"
LOL…just kidding.
Best,
Tina

Barely Domestic Mama

Loved the story!!! Your poor mom! She was just trying to tell you she missed you. I understand about the lost in translation with my mom who was raised in Puerto Rico until she was 16. She is a lot quicker at understanding jokes now, but every now and then she gets a little lost.

Just watched your vlog! I was all amped up thinking we might get to see your face or something, but no such luck!! You are so sneaky. But anyway, I loved your story. Lost in translation, huh? So many things like that when you are translating from one language to another. Which is how a girl in my study abroad program in Chile ended up telling her family that she had a penis in her butt. Uh huh. Now that was embarassing.
naomidelatorre

She meant to say that she had a "pain" in her butt. Just thought I'd clear that up in case you were wondering.

I'm glad you clarified that because she could have had a penis in her butt.
