without wings yet

last night we had our costume rehearsal for tomorrow's trick or treat at Dada's office.




the headdress and wand was bought yesterday... the dress and wings (yes, it has) was borrowed from Roel's officemate..
i'm sooo excited for my daughter... =D

eheads: icon

bought myx mag yesterday... because it features my fave band, eraserheads.


you can read the story behind their reunion concert,it has ehead songs in chords and lyrics, their band history and e-trivia.

while reading this mag, i'm also listening to their songs... like tamagochi baby, sticker happy, sino sa atin, pop machine, etc... i got goosebumps listening to the songs.

i really love eraserheads!

1st trick or treat

last saturday, oct. 25, was france's first trick or treat at the nearby posh subdivision. you can only participate in the event if you're from that village or a relative, it was daddy ed's (my husband's bro-in-law) sister who lives there. my daughter is not properly dressed up for the event but still she enjoyed it. we just put some make up on her face, a little red lipstick for blood dripping down her mouth and a dark colored eye shadow for her eyelids.

we had convoy in doing the trick or treat, the village still has a few homeowners and not all are participating.

full of goodies

tired but still smiling

her pumpkin pail

her simple make-up

at the clubhouse

the kids had some games

looking at her goodies =D

we're now looking forward for our next trick or treat this friday at Dada's office. we're planning to buy her a costume that is if we can't borrow one from friends.

palaruan

dati ang play area lang ng anak ko eh dito lang sa salas. pero nang lumaki na si macoy at nanggugulo na... i decided to convert the 'bodega/room' into my daughter's play and 'avr' area. lagi kasi silang nag-aagawan sa mga laruan o laging ginugulo ni macoy si ate kapag gustong maglaro mag-isa.







mainit kahapon kaya naisipan naming magbike sa village, nagpunta kami sa playground ng phase 3.




dinaanan din namin ang pinagawang bahay ng barkada namin.. sino kaya contractor nila ang ganda eh..

caffeinated

last night, i slept at 230am... i think i drank too much cappuccino.



at last i'm finished with this psp game, bitin ako sa ending -



got a dvd of this.. pampatulog sana pero -



hindi ko pa maumpi-umpisahan itong k-drama na ito -

the usual... and

i'm finished listening to Da Vinci Code audiobook. i'm now choosing which audiobook to listen next..






i tried Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist... sad to say, mahina ang audiobook nya kahit naka-full na volume ko (o yung player ang may problema). i tried digital fortress... still thinking if i'll continue listening to it if not i'll try to listen to some podcasts.


i got tired of playing PSP.. or i'm looking for a new game.

i also got the chance to read my cosmopolitan, 3 months backreads ko, and smart parenting mags.



i've been doing the usual routine with my daughter, having lessons, watching barney with her and just being with her all day long.

and i've been scouting schools for my daughter for next year.. and we might enroll her at Montessori Children's Workshop here at Biñan. we might start her 'sit in' sessions this november or if she's not still into it.. maybe by january. kinakabahan ako, once na nagstart ka ng magpa-aral, tulut-tuloy na yan. and i wish and pray na maka-adjust sya agad. may problema pa ako sa speech, potty training at eating behaviors nya. igagapang namin ang pag-aaral nya.. dahil grabe and tuition fee. mukhang maiisang tabi muna ang pagbili namin ng sarili naming bahay. =(

Daniel Radcliffe: My Boy Jack


Distributor: BBC America
Release Date: 2008-04-22

Starring: Daniel Radcliffe, Kim Cattrall, David Haig, Carey Mulligan

Directed by Brian Kirk
Produced by David Haig, Michael Casey, Douglas Rae
Written by David Haig

I watched this UK TV-series-turned-movie because of Dan, I really love this young man.


The year is 1914, and Rudyard Kipling (David Haig), one of the British Empire’s greatest supporters, is at the height of his literary fame. His son, Jack (Radcliffe), is determined to join fight in the war against Germany, but is dogged by poor eyesight (he’s shortsighted), something the English forces refuse to look past - that is, until Rudyard uses his influence to land Jack in the Irish Guards, despite objections from Caroline Kipling (Cattrall) and Jack’s sister, Elsie (Carey Mulligan). They, unlike Rudyard and Jack, fail to see the glory in fighting for one’s country, especially when so many lives are being lost. When Jack is off fighting the war, Rudyard is torn between his two greatest passions – his devotion to the King and country, and love for his family.



My Boy Jack

Have you news of my boy Jack?
Not this tide.
When d’you think that he’ll come back?
Not with this wind blowing, and this tide.
Has any one else had word of him?
Not this tide.
For what is sunk will hardly swim,
Not with this wind blowing, and this tide.
Oh dear, what comfort can I find?
None this tide
Nor any tide
Except he did not shame his kind –
Not even with that wind blowing and that tide.
Then hold your head up all the more
This tide,
And every tide,
Because he was the son you bore
And gave to that wind blowing and that tide.



the ending is very sad for me. =(

it is a different dan radcliffe, it is more mature and no wand-waving =D
