Project 365: Jan. 05, 2011 (day005) - In Your Eyes

If there is one thing I love about the physical attributes of my son, it would definitely be his pair of eyes and eyelashes. Eversince he was an infant, I've already noticed that his pair of eyes and eyelashes is something every girl would want. Unfortunately, those sweet pair of eyes and those curly eyelashes are owned by my son, a boy. Tee hee! :-) Oh well.. I guess my mom and I would just ogle everytime my 4-year old bats his eyelashes. With those eyes and eyelashes, who needs mascara? :-)

Project365: Jan.04, 2011 (day004): pAKing Lot

I was watching my son at play today. He was busy with all his small toy cars. At first he was busy moving the cars, as if they were running on the expressway, free from traffic. Next, he lined up his cars, "bumper-to-bumper" style. He then told me that his cars were stuck in "tafik" (i.e. my son's bulol-version of the word traffic). Finally, he arranged his cars side-by-side. Now this ignited my curiosity as I am not sure if he knows the technical term for the place where cars are parked. To my surprise and utmost amusement, he answered that his cars are now in the "PAKING lot". This is, of course, my son's bulol-version of the word "paRking lot". ;-)

Project 365: Jan.03, 2011 (day003) - Blowin' Bubbles

My son Zion has one favorite toy here at home. Since I don't know the "technical term" for this toy, I call it the "bubble maker", because that's what it does - create bubbles from the soapy liquid inside a bright green bottle. Sometimes I enjoy watching Zion blow those bubbles. It brings back memories of my own childhood. Well it was quite crude then. We had to pick gumamela flowers, pound these flowers, and mix it with powdered detergent soap and water. For the round "mold", my childhood buddies and I would usually get some piece from our walis tingting (i.e. broom), turn one of the ends to form a circle for our bubbles. Kids of today are lucky. No need for all these preparations. They can just ask their moms/dads to buy it from the malls.

Project 365: Jan. 02, 2011 (day002) - Zion's Tail

For the day2 entry of my Project 365 endeavor, I am featuring again my son Zion. I must admit that he (Zion) helps a lot in this project. As I've told a buddy, hindi ka mauubusan ng possible shots para sa Project 365 kapag may kasama kang bata sa bahay. For today, I just noticed that my son's "tail" is quite long. This "tail" has been his natural hair ever since he was born. We just ask the barber to do a little trimming if we notice that it is getting frizzy. If we have time, we usually braid this tail. But if we are in a hurry, we just tie it to come up with a ponytail.

Project 365: Jan 01, 2011 (day001) - Macho Baby

Now I know, I should have started at exactly January 01, 2011. But as the old saying goes, "better late than never". As I have mentioned in my previous blog entry, I am reviving this blog, and one of my "goals" this year is to come up with my own Project 365, or the one-photo-a-day project.

To start of, my first post for the year was taken on the morning of Jan. 01, 2011. The maskulado boy in the picture is my 4-year old son Zion. He is a very willing subject when I want to do test shots with my camera. Expect to see more of him in my Project 365 endeavor. :-)

Blog Revival 2011

Happy New Year everyone! I will be reviving this blog for the nth time! Tee hee! :-) I checked my list of posts and found out that my last post was last July 2010.

For 2011, I have some plans for this blog. Aside from my usual rants and raves, I will be using this blog for a new project - Project 365. A photography-related project wherein I will be posting pictures of various impacts - from the simple, mundane, to the weird and wackos. Well, I should be able to post it on a daily basis. Well, for the first week of January, my shots are still complete (from January 1-5; will take pics later for January6). But I have to find time to post these pics in this blog. Well! Goodluck to me! Expect about 6 or 7 posts this coming weekend! Hehe! :-)

I guess, this is all for now. I'm still thinking of what other stuff to put in this blog. I'll just surprise you, my readers. :-)

Discernment

My prayer today:

::
::
"..dear God, You have closed a window so that i may see things from bigger and better doors. please grant me the wisdom and discernment to know which door would lead me and Zion to happiness and a brighter tomorrow..."
::

Hoping and praying that the right door opens up. Hoping and praying that God will give me a sign if it is indeed the right door for me and my son. :-)
