I heard so much good reviews about the latest movie, Tim Burton's "Alice In Wonderland" shown March 5th, that I thought of posting a short entry about the story. I have not seen the movie yet, though I would love to see it on the big screen. I heard the special effects and costumes are really fantastic!
This book by Lewis Carroll was one of those books I read as a fifth grader in completion of a required book report in school. Back then, after I indeed read the book, yet thought that a book report meant copying the 1st paragraph and the last paragraph of the story, then adding the book cover description in the middle of those two paragraphs. (honestly!) So you can imagine how short my book report was!
Typical 11-year-old me. All I fondly remember of the story was "Curiouser and curiouser".... :)
I should have written my book report similar to THIS
Noticed that everyday the temperature is getting hotter and hotter in the Philippines? School is not yet out but it feels like an early summer for us. Despite what the weather reports and El Niño updates say, I love summer as always!
Summer for us here in the province is a time to build, to plant and even to pause and breathe awhile from the daily necessities of kids in school. (Vacation soon, yey!) Best yet is the time spent together with family during visits to the nearby beach!
I always have happy memories of summer being the "tourist" that I used to be :) Reading books, hanging out with friends, going to the movies, listening to the radio and yes, how could I forget, eating halo-halo to cool off. Hmm, I miss those carefree summer days, yet the happy feeling is always here! ^_^

Thanks to all my avid ec droppers the past month, sure have improved my ratings and seo ranking. Frequent visitors inspire me more to post blog entries and I admit, who wouldn't be on the month of Hearts? ^_^
Here are the ec droppers who made it to the Top Ten on my blog:
"Pink*Jeep"as my youngest's favorite phrase when he was little, it's when he's got nothing else to say or when he's simply kidding. Since those were his words of the season, it stuck with us like a common joke! We think it's his pint-sized expression of "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" :)
