Pushing Daisies

Well this is something worth blogging about. Aside from being so hooked watching Gossip Girl, Pushing Daisies is my next favorite. Its like Amelie and Big Fish, a storybook fairytale rolled in one. So cute. Watch it.

My 1st ever Havaianas and other Sole related Products.

Pronounced as ah-vai-yah-nas, which is Portuguese for Hawaiians.

I know i know. This is too juvenile but i just want to say that after 4 years since this tsinelas
(what my ofcmates say when i ask why are they wearing tsinelas to work: excuse me this is not tsinelas, this is Havaianas) was launched in our tropical island i bought my own pair.

Aint it cute? I was looking for the 2006 edition, if you could remember the Jungle theme but its not sold anymore. What made me buy one? First, i got it in a cheaper price, 651.00php only. Second, oh there is no second. Just for the price. I even bought one for my mom and for my brother. So technically, i paid mahal din. Hanz was not interested so i didn't get him any and Roo has his little Dupe which is way cuter and cheaper compared to the little Havaies being sold.

So now, i have a new foot wear to make laspag. Bad bad me, i wore them to church twice already.

-------------------------------------

I love my Happy feet sandals but my white one is so old and the sole is chapped already i decided to donate it. I asked HF how much would be the cost if i get it repaired, its around 800php. Well, better buy a new one instead. They have this new style which has a built in massager which looks like the tip of the Mongol eraser, its so comfy when you wear it but aesthetically it looks weird. Hey! I like weird stuff that's why im contemplating whether or not to get it not.

I bought a Wade flats in silver with a Fleur-De-Liz buckle. It reminds me of the Tory Burch sandals. Its so comfy. Sana it would last long. I decided NOT to buy any Crocs sandals anymore, since it was my 2007 statement.

This coming year my statement would be...As simple as possible. Back to basics. So hopefully, i could achieve it.

My Roo is a Toddler.

Its really a pinch in the heart to see your baby boy grow so fast. At first you want to see them with their first walk, their first words and pray that hopefully they wont go astray as they learn to make their own walks with friends and would not answer back when they grow up. I know its too early for that but babies grow right before your eyes and if you even blink you'll realize they have all grown up.

Like what Kahlil Gibran said,

Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, And though they are with you, yet they belong not to you. You may give them your love but not your thoughts. For they have their own thoughts.

You may house their bodies but not their souls,For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth. The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far. Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness; For even as he loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.

So there you go, as a parent its a bitter pill to swallow but thats life. Live it.

Here's my baby boy now. After his 1st bday.

After a little blog break

There are so many things that happened while i was in semi-hiatus. First of, i finished reading the last book of Philip Pullman's Dark Materials, The Amber Spyglass It was such a complex, jampack, movie-like book that at times when i read it i feel that im so full right away. Its like eating food with vetsin. Its so tasteful. The book will not let you down in terms of expectations. I think the ending was a little drama anthology for me but it was still cool. You know, with puberty and stuff.

Im still in the process of finishing Roo's party preparations. So help me God.

Im currently addicted to The Gossip Girl. I just cant freakingly connect properly to the site.

Just a week to go and Hanz n I are flying to D-A-V-A-O. Yahoo!!! Hopefully, no typhoon and no government insurgency.
