MGR#18 Face Powder




Happy 2nd Birthday cutie Amiel!

We didn't get to prepare a Messy Go Round post last week and it felt a little strange. He he! Mommy was so  preoccupied with her online job and totally forgot that Saturday even passed by. As some of you may already know, Mommy decided to be a stay at home mom after my grandmama passed away so she can be with us and be hands on. I actually liked the idea since I get to be with her and my sister before and after school hours. I also didn't have to beg for Mommy to file a vacation leave even without pay so she can attend school activities. 

Anyway, back to Amiel. He is the second son of my Godmother Amie (Mom's friend since High School). He's of the same age as Roey though Amiel is about 7 weeks older. Isn't he cute? Could be preparing for his big day, ha ha! Mommy said I too have a photo while I have powder all over my face, just like this of Amiel. 

Again, happy birthday Amiel! May you grow up healthy, cute, loving and humble. 


Buwan ng Wika 2011


I joined this year's Filipino declamation contest again. The piece given to Grade 4 students is quite interesting. It also matches this stage of social development as Mom said. The fact that I have a sister, I am sure we will experience this in the future. At least now, I somehow already know how to handle it learning from the piece titled "Nang Minsang Makipag-away Ako". I'll share with you the declamation piece itself but again, it's in our Filipino language since August is the month we celebrate the Filipino language. August is what we call "Buwan ng Wika" (Language Month).

"Nang Minsang Makipag-away Ako"

Noong isang araw, ako'y nakipag-away
Maliit lang naman ang naging dahilan
Kami ng kapatid ko'y di nagkaintindihan
Naku! Iyon na. Hindi na kami nasaway.

Magkasama pa naman kami sa iisang silid
Kaya's sa pagtulog lagi akong nakatagilid
Kapag nga lang madilim na ang paligid
Gusto ko nang humarap sa aking kapatid.

Mabigat sa dibdib ang hindi nagkikibuan
Pati paglalaro nami'y naapektuhan
Nami-miss ko ang aming kwentuhan
Pati na rin ang aming mga tawanan.

Mahirap ang takdang-aralin ko ngayon
Paano kaya ako nakapagpapatulong?
Nahihiya naman akong magtanong
Makapag-isip na nga ng tamang solusyon.

Hindi naman tama ito, dapat nang matapos
Magsosori na ako upang magkaayos
Pagharap ko kay Ate ngumiti lang ako
Natawa na lang siya tapos na ang gulo.

Sa wakas tapos na ang aming tampuhan
Ayoko nang maulit ang aming awayan
Di ako masaya pag di nagkikibuan
Ang Ate ko kasi ay akin ding kaibigan.

Napag-usapan namin ng aking kapatid
Kung may sama ng loon ay dapat sabihin
Ang konting bagay huwag nang palakihin
Anumang awayan ay agad tapusin.

Kung sakaling may kaaway ka, kaibigan,
Sige na makipagbati ka, lapitan mo siya
Kausapin mo, magpakumbaba ka muna
Malay mo iyon din pala ang iniisip niya.

Kung ang bawat isa ay mag-iisip nang ganito
Tiyak na magwawakas ang anumang gulo
Kapayapaan ay atin na ring matatamo
Magiging maganda at panatag ang ating mundo.

Okay, I know a few would really not understand what the poem is since it's written in Filipino language. =) Well, it is a story of siblings who had a fight and the younger one had to think of a way on how they can fix their issues. The reconciliation started with a smile. It also pointed out that our siblings are instant friends that we should treasure. Also, the poem mentioned an advice to those who have enemies... sit and talk, it is best to be humble and it definitely bring beauty and peace.

Toy Stories: Duck Plushy

When my sister is a little younger, she would always sleep and have this little yellow duck plushy beside her. It was her favorite stuffed animal before she was introduced to Blue & Barney and to real life cats and dogs! LoL! I really like to look at this photo. She looks so innocent and seemed to be seriously dreaming of her duck toy and they could be swimming together in her dream...who knows?

I Love Sports!

I have always wanted to learn how to swim. It's something I consider my favorite sport, or maybe one of the two favorites I have. I am joining Sporty blog giveaway and is quite excited about it.

My Mommy enrolled me in a swimming lesson about 3 years ago. There were moments that I cried because of fear but I faced my fears of drowning. Here's a photo of me during my swimming lesson at St. Charbel. I am proud to say that I was able to jump and swim unto a 6ft deep pool. That's without these floaters I am wearing in the photo.

Aside from swimming, I also love biking! This was my first bike. It was a gift from Mc Donald's when I celebrated my birthday there. This is still in my grandparent's house but we can no longer use it. I wish we could afford a bigger bike with out the support wheels. Hehe!

My friends AB, C & D love sports too. Check out what their activities at Sporty and if you also join their contest, you might win $20. What are you waiting for? Join now!

MGR#17 Little Miss Kate

Toady, I would like to feature my 2nd cousin Kate Jhazreel. I am so happy that she's here at home for the weekend. At least being grounded is not really boring since I can play with her. I feel sorry that I failed my Mom's expectations and sorry that I have low grades. Mommy already talked to me and I promised to do better.


Here's this week's Messy Go Round, Ate Kate's messy hair. A bad hair day in fact. Hehe! But even with an uncombed hair, she still is very pretty. I love her to bits. She's 2 years older than me and I treat her like a sister.
