Farewell, MJ!


i know this is a very late post. and the whole world knew about it. Michael Jackson died on June 25... it's very saddening... words fail me... ugh! i'm not a big fan... but i cried when i heard the news.

i grew up in his music... now, i mourn for his death...


farewell, MJ! you will surely be missed...

it's been quite a while...

^_^ howdy! oh my! i haven't been able to post anything lately... that's due to my soo-hectic schedule at home and with the kids. and of course, with my hobbies.

yay! i'm into crocheting!

finally, i was able to make an amigurumi cat... i found a very simple pattern at lionbrand.com

i tried it! it's easy and fun! highly recommended for beginners like me!

here are the pics:

"meow!"


"see my tail? purrr!"

i will post more pics soon! i'm actually planning to giveaway one of my creations here... but i'm still thinking about it... i don't really get so many readers and visitors lately... maybe soon...

oh blog! i missed you! ^_^

Dolls

i have heard of Blythe Dolls before... but i don't pay much attention. all i know is, it's just a doll, like that of Barbie or Momoko. early this eve, i googled it. and i find out that that was it! the big-eyed dolls mostly are dressed like lolita or the ones that we see in anime's... CUTE! oh, my! on ebay, the lowest you can get is at around $30-$40. wow! even my daughter said that when she saw me looking at one of their photos on the web. i know that expression. she wants one... but, my dear... it is overly expensive for a doll! i can't post a photo of it. i'll just provide a link so that you can see it for yourself. Click here!

aaaaw... i really want one... too bad i can't afford it. and D might say that i'm too old for a doll. you can't blame me. once you find out, you'll come back and tell me that i have the right to feel this way.

new life for an old shoes and the Quartet

Mother's Day

part of my morning routine is to have a coffee while sitting on the couch and staring blankly on the floor and think about my things-to-do for the day.

i realize that i have to get my ass up and start working because my son and his co-singers will perform later at the mall nearby. i have to iron his suit and his pants. i have to think of what to wear. i have to make them breakfast too...

urgh!

okay!

let's start.

but wait...

........

is that my old flats laying on the corner?

oh, my poor old friend...



................

i paused... and stared blankly again...

and i walked back in to my room and grabbed my things.


(it has a very visible tear)

and then i started working on it.



i've been planning to do this like since i was born... (LOL!) but i just can't find the time to sit down for a while and work on it. these past few days, i am filled with soo many obligations and errands. ((my sister in law is getting married next week. she asked for my assistance and i was glad that i can be of help. i never thought that it would be so exhausting and exciting on my part. but then, i don't mind. i am enjoying every moment of it.))

since i still have extra time that morning, and i have no shoes to match my outfit for the day, i sat back to the couch again until i finished my little DIY project. it was a success! duh?! anybody can do it with both eyes closed. haha! just kidding... it's damn easy! now i have a new flats to walk around with... (or should i say reinvented?)

whatever...

later that day, we all went to see my son's performance and i wore my old brand new shoes...


it was one day in my life that i should be thankful of. i do not even have to tell you why... *wink*



(the second little guy wearing a blue neck tie is my first born)
