What's up dearies? What can you say about this blog's new look? Well I'll definitely gonna rave about it on my next post.

Now, let's talk about movies and my little girl.

Since she's barely a toddler, we haven't taken her yet to the big screen. Although I heard that there are also special mommy-baby show times at some movie theaters. I don't have plan to try it lol.. I'd rather watch alone and enjoy.

She loves television. Actually, it’s not just T.V. that she loves. Anything that is flickering. It may be computer or phones.




It has become a routine to let her watch several videos a day. She's watching the same videos everyday. Aside from the educational programs she can watch on the local tv, she has a set of Dora, Barneys, Baby Einstein, Baby Bumblebee, Barbie,and Strawberry Shortcake.

It’s not that I intentionally subject her to hours of media but lately, she would hand me the next dvd she wanna watch.. I think it's my fault that she's becoming a media addict..

I should have thought she would have turned out this way because I let her watch for me to do my own thing like chores and internet!

I'm gonna keep my eye on this lil girl from now on... I don't want her to be like me, who was into drama series, in the future

I have been reading aloud to our lil girl once in awhile since she was newborn. ALthough I don't usually read bedtime stories to her. I tried once but I guess it's really not my thing, I easily get bored.. she also gets bored lol. I talk to her instead which has become a routine to put her to sleep.

She enjoys looking and pointing at the illustrations more than listening to a story. She likes us to name a certain photo she points and repeats whatever we say. No wonder, she has learned ABCs, numbers, animals, colors, etc as early as 18 months old.

Some of her books were bought at 100yen Shop. I choose books with bright colors and sharp contrast.




Most of them are learning books. However, I'm thinking of starting to read bedtime stories to her . Language skills and even intelligence — can depend on a child's daily exposure to a large vocabulary. So reading is good to your child.

Also studies have shown that reading will help build your toddler's vocabulary, stimulate his imagination, and improve his communication skills.

It's never too late for me to begin reading stories to her.. I might start with my Sophie Kinsella collection lol

Also sharing this to.. Join us every friday =)

Last week, after Anzu's pre-school class, I took her with me together with some friends to meet an old friend of mine who was leaving for good with her husband whom I haven't seen for years.. I'm so glad they ended up to each other after so many things have happened. That only means that love is so strong. Love indeed conquers all... and so as love moves in mysterious ways lol --- i believe so

Before I get so cheezy and mushy, let me share you some memorable photos taken during our bonding time at Yokota Base


This is my friend Irish. God knows how much I missed this pretty lady. It's been quite awhile since the last time we've been together, almost 3 years?...

I'm just so happy she thought of visiting Tokyo and call us to spend some quality time before they leave for Estados Unidos.

I guess an half day was enough to catch up (of course it wasn't enough..)

SO here she met our little dolly Azumi. IT was LIKE at first sight! It was unusual to see her liking a person instantly, no awkwardness nor worries on her face during the first minute of meeting her. SO KAWAII...

I think she forgot that she has me as a mom for awhile lol. She was so at ease that she even cried when we said goodbye =)




Azumi and her cousin, Ryukun, and a new girlfriend, Miyuki Chan.

They were so all over the place during our late lunch at Chili's..

CUte though....



It was a fun hot and yet afternoon .. i miss the old days when we were still working together. I miss those drunk nights and endless chikkas lol.


No goodbyes.. We will definitely see each other again and catch up .for the lost time for sure...


Also sharing this to Nostalgia.. Join and share yours every thursday.
