A night with my crochet

Tita Bel, my mother's friend, came by to teach me how to Dougie. Hahaha! Nope. I was just kidding. To teach me some basics of Crochet. She also gave me this one, look ;P

Para daw di ako mahirapan. Awww, So sweet :)))) eto serious na naman ako ulet. Tinuloy ko lang yung ginagawa nya. Di talaga ako yung gumawa nyan.

Obviously, I don't like Blue. Hahaha

Super nainis ako nun, sumusuko nako nung ginagawa ko to pero sabe saken tuloy kuna daw. Ganyan lang daw talaga sa umpisa. Kase naman no. Ang hirap talaga. Nang huhula na lang ako kung san ko isusulot yung thread. Kase ilang beses na saken tinuro pero nakakalimutan ko. Haha! Double chain na tong ginagawa ko.

Here's my cousin, nag papaturo din nung ginagawa ko.

I always get bored and while I'm searching some art and crafts related blogs, I saw a Crochet. Usually pang oldies na to. But I started to like it. I looked for more designs and parang na inspire akong gumawa din! Ang cute kase and feeling ko pag marunong nako I could do my own stuffs like bonnet, clothes, keychain and etc! Hahaha:) I started to dream Big kase ma effort to. Para pang regalo nadin sa Family and friends;) Odba? Despite of what my friends and mother saying na dapat matyaga pero wala ako nun, I wanted to try paden. At least, in that case I could practice my tyaga. HAHAHA!

Here are my beginning materials for Crochet. 3 color of thread/yarn and one hook sized 7. I was so excited to buy all this things. I'm so happy now that I have them and I can practice my Crochet.

1st Undas

It's a Filipino tradition to celebrate at cemetery during November 1.The traditions were imported during the era of New Spain, when Mexico governed the Philippines. Tombs are cleaned or repainted, candles are lighted, flowers and prayers are offered. Some families use that opportunity for reunion purposes. Card games, eating, drinking, singing and dancing are common activities in the cemetery.

It was my/our first time to celebrate the Undas at cemetery. Usually kase sa bahay lang kame nag sisindi ng kandila coz anlalayo ng cemetery ng family ko. Last year and this year, namatay yung tito ko (mom's brother) and my lola (mom's mother) and nakaburol sila sa Sindalan. Yung tito ko sa Calulut cemetery while my lola, sa Eternal Peace Memorial Park.

Gabe kame nag visit sakto umulan ng malakas and andun nakame sa cemetery. Nag stay muna kame sa car and buti na lang tumigil din. First namen pinuntahan yung tito ko, nag tagal din kame dun ng mga 30 min or more? Tas next sa lola ko. Nashock kame kase kapasok namen ng cemetery may tiangge! Lol. More like fiesta ng mga buhay ang eksena. Coool!

Eating Session

Yes, i'm definitely wearing my NSTP shirt. Hahaha

Playing Session

 

Rest Session

Of course, before we left on each cemetery, we made sure that we prayed together for the souls of my tito and lola. Around 10pm, we went back sa dateng bahay ng tita ko sa Sindalan. Wala ng nakatira dun ngayon. It's like a rest house na lang. We spent the night there and the next morning we went back here at Angeles city.

Rio Movie

The title refers to the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro, in which the film is set. The film features the voices of Jesse Eisenberg, Anne Hathaway, George Lopez, Jemaine Clement and Jake T. Austin. It tells the story of Blu (Eisenberg), a male blue macaw who is taken to Rio de Janeiro to mate with a female. He eventually falls in love with Jewel (Hathaway), a free-spirited macaw, and together they have to escape from being smuggled by Nigel (Clement), a cockatoo.

I've watched this for two consecutive days because my younger cousin likes it. She and I kept on watching it until we already knew some of the script and lyrics of the song. I've also come to love the movie. It made me wanna go to Brazil, specifically at Rio de Janeiro. I've been wanting to travel and I'll make sure to put this on my list. I've seen many moral values on the story. Good for children. I really enjoyed this one because it makes me smile and laugh on some scene plus the songs! It's like a musicale. A Romantic/Comedy film that will make you sing La-La-La-La-La-La-La :))

Do you believe in The Lost civilization: Atlantis

Nothing left to do, I searched the Unexplainable mystery of Atlantis which is said to be a legendary island. The story of Atlantis begins quite literally with two of Plato's dialogues "Timaeus and Critias", written about 360 BC. According to Plato, Atlantis was described as a large landmass somewhere west of the “Pillars of Hercules” (the points of land that nearly meet where the Mediterranean Sea separates the Spanish and North African peninsulas). Located somewhere in the Atlantic, the Atlantean civilization was believed to have been extremely prosperous, with a “confederation of kings, of great and marvelous power” (Plato, Timaeus) who maintained a powerful naval force in the region. The near-utopian society suffered a tragic fate, however, when a cataclysmic natural disaster led to the entire city being swallowed up by the ocean in a single day, leaving behind no trace of its existence.

“One grievous day and night befell them, when the whole body of your warriors was swallowed up by the earth, and the Island of Atlantis in like manner was swallowed up by the sea and vanished; wherefore also the ocean at that spot has now become impassable and unsearchable, being blocked up by the shoal mud which the island created as it settled down.”
-Plato, Timaeus

 For unknown reasons, Plato never completed Critias. Plato introduced Atlantis in Timaeus.

The search for Atlantis is still on and one of the primary things to worry about is, where to start the search because the Plato's dialogues hasn't mentioned any location of Atlantis. Some scientists think that the word Atlantis has close resemblance with Atlantic Ocean which suggests that Atlantis may be some where in the Atlantic Ocean. Therefore it is the first place to search for Atlantis still many other argue about this hypothesis and have their own proposed sites in the vast oceans of this world.

So far, there hasn't been any scientific evidences related to the existence of Atlantis. There are some researches, however until now it is still not clear whether any such thing as Atlantis ever existed or was is just an imaginary society of Plato.

I need to chill

We enrolled at Hau. So hot at that moment and we decided to chill at Marquee even we don't have money. All we wanted was a cold chilling place. Kaya ayun, Sugod! HAHA

We looked for a place kung san kasya pera namen and sakto asa harap nakame ng Mcdonalds. And that's it! We ordered yung tig 25 pesos; ) Sulit.  Swak sa Bulsa. Hahaha!

We went at Fully Booked. I sometimes love reading books! ; ) Last stop, sa likod ng marquee. Nilalamig nako kaya we tried to settle at mini picnic grounds of Marquee and took wacky pictures. We love doing that;"> Kontra? :))

That's all! Thanks Marquee and Sai!

Happy Holloween 2011! Trick or treat!

Celebrating a Halloween party is unusual for Filipinos. It's not common here in the Philippines unlike in other country, talagang di mawawala yun. Talagang pinaghahandaan nila yung costume. They go to one house and commend their Halloween night.

It was our longtime dream to have this and finally we came up even last minute nalang ang pag pplano. On that same day lang din ako nag hanap ng costume ko. Thanks to my supportive mother and younger sister dahil sila nangalkal ng costume ko. I love them.

 

Tadaaaaa! Credits to my sister's costume. May pakinabang pala yung mga ginagamet nila sa school nun. I started to appreciate their costume now. I don't know what's the perfect term to describe my outfit. Pau named me Slutty Witch.

Happy Halloween!
