Manga Review: Bakuman

Honestly, I'm not the type that reads a lot. I tend to easily get bored especially if the material is all nothing but texts and does not have a single picture at all. If I remember it correctly; when I was little, one of my Aunties always brings me home a book to read. Well, what can I say? I'm lazy. After looking at the first few pages I then start throwing it away and move on with TV. I grew up in front of the TV for all you know. But recently, I developed a habit of reading "manga". What are mangas again? Mangas are Japanese comic books.

So as ya'll know, I kinda got a little "addicted" in reading stuffs like these,  manly 'cause it runs my imagination to its wildest. Haha! I've read probably all sorts of manga genre. And of course, I too have certain favorites that I keep reading on and on and probably would suggest to read by other friends.

And it has been a two months since I finished reading Bakuman. I was just waiting for my friend at the mall so we can go to work together. I was really thinking of buying some magazines then so I dropped by at the bookstore. Seeing the price tags, I then came to a firm decision to read online instead, since I'm always in front of the computer and always online, and also (here comes the most important part) it doesn't cost me a single dime. Haha! And yes, I was browsing some comic books and saw a couple of my favorites like Bleach, Naruto, Nodame Cantabile, Soul Eater, Fairy Tail and a whole lot more. And I also saw Bakuman. So I jot it down on my phone so I won't forget it 'cause yes, I can easily forget petty things like these. :P

Bakuman Chapter 1 Manga Cover page, Mashiro Moritaka

Of course, like any other book readers do, I read the synopsis first before continue reading the whole thing. Yes, yes, yes, I'm kinda picky with manga too. Haha! As I read through it, it caught my attention, "Hmm?. This seems good. Might as well try it." I say. And it was well, not the best but it was nice.

 Basically the story moves around two Junior High or Middle School students who dreamed of being Mangakas (Comic Artist). The story was a-okay. It has the ups and downs, happiness and sadness, laughter and tears. It's like a drama series in cartoon/anime version of how difficult yet happy life of those manga artist have. 

DVD Cover Page. Mashiro Moritaka and Takagi Akito.

It was a really nice experience reading this book. I kinda learned from it too. It made me shed tears, it made me really curious and wanting me read more and more, made me think what's gonna happen next. It also made me laugh like crazy, 'cause some character are really hilarious. And it made me realize that I should value my friends more and more. It also made me believe in the power dreams. Hmmm? Dreams huh? I can't really say that I don't have dreams of my own but I think, I will just wait and see until I get to that point were I can say that "this is what I've dreamed for." I want things to be thrilling. I have my own ways of chasing my "unknown" dreams. *wink

Also there's a saying that I picked up while reading this and it got really stuck in my head. I'll just say it my way, It's really a wild world out there. You really don't know what will happen after every 5 seconds of your life. So you should at least have kick as qualities like Faith: that you believe that you can have it, Arrogance: think that you are better then all the others, Effort: work hard, its not like it's always given and Luck. Another one of my favorite is " Life is like a box of chocolate. You never know what you're going to get." said in the movie Forest Gump. Sigh. It's really nice to be inspired by things that you never thought that would give you these kinds of feelings. :)

Do read Bakuman if you have extra time with you. :)

I know it's kinda mushy but what are your dream?

You have any manga that you want me to review or just read?

Thanks a bunch! :)

NOTE: This is a late post 'cause I was so lazy. Haha!

Yes Boss!!

Hey guys. It's been sometime since I shared something. I don't feel the usual lazy, 'cause I feel SUPER lazy, I mean to the highest level. *yawn* Geez. I lack the motivation again. Actually, I came to work 5 minutes late; so that adds to the super lazy feeling of mine. It's a total bad-trip 'cause I never thought that I would be late, thanks to traffic of course! SIGH.

Okay, enough of the hatred. I just had my snack with one of my favorite person, My Lalic. We've been friends since college days, we've been through ups and downs of course, if you know us by afar we both totally have a big contrast in personality but no matter what we still remain very good friends. See, we're always troubled thinking what to eat for snack. The place where we work doesn't have much to offer when it comes to food so we always end up dinning at the same old restaurant over and over and over. But today, we decided to go something different, we headed to Pancake House.

Pancake House has always been a favorite of mine, especially their chicken lollipop. If I remember it correctly, I was so head over heels with it. Okay, for today's menu; Lalic tried the Ham and Cheese Omelet, it has yes the ham and cheese omelet, 2 triangular toasted bread, butter and a little salad. I had the Grilled Cheese (don't we just love cheese? Haha!) it's basically melted cheese sandwich in a toasted bread cut into two and a couple of pineapples and pickles on the side and an ice cream shaped potato salad. It was the bomb! It stuffed up to death! *two thumbs up* and the price is... just okay. :)

Snack date with my Lalic. :)

Okay, so the good mood has been redeemed. Now, I'd like to brag something more personal. Haha! Today, it the birth date of a man who's very dear to me. He was the boy to held me so gently. The first person who made me smile and laugh like crazy. He's the first person to brag the world about me. The first person who called me "my precious". He may not talk much but his words definitely reaches me. He may not be there at all times but I know that he supports me all the way. I'm talking about my Dad guys. Haha! I just want to tell the whole wide universe that I am one lucky person to have such an amazing dad.

Me, my Awesome Dad and the late Whooper (he died like two month ago, he's a chocolate colored Labrador)

He may not be the richest person in the world but he surely did give us everything that he worked hard for. And he also gave me that one thing that no one could every take away from me and that is my knowledge. And of course he's also the wackiest person next to me. I just notice, as my dad ages he spends more time with us now. Not like when we were still kids, he's always out working, saving for our schools fees and stuff. Now that most of his kids can stand up quite firmly, he's just still there continually guiding and reminding us of the does and don't of life. He also enjoys joking a lot with us now. Sometimes when he's really in the mood to fool around he even calls us boss and we ask him to do short errands like "Dad, get me a glass of water." "Get my bag." Buy me this and that." Haha! It's so much fun, really.

 I also learned a lot from this guy. He knows how hard life is but he never gave up all for our sake. He's one of my inspiration why I am working my ass out. It's more than a blessing knowing this kind-hearted person. Of course there are times that he gets mad at us. O-M-G. Haha! I suddenly had a flash back when he gets angry as if he was hulk to go ballistic. Haha!

Shh! You know what, I didn't greet him today. Hihi! For sure, he's crazy mad about this. Actually, me and the rest of the fam are planning to throw him a birthday bash this coming Saturday, so I really can't wait for it. Don't worry, I'll tell you all the details next week. Sigh. Surely, time flies when you are having fun.

THANKS FOR EVERYTHING AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, NO MATTER WHAT. :)

Now, you know my super dad. Tell me a story of your super dad too. :)

Thanks for reading.

Amen.

Hey guys. Happy Feel Good Friday. :) Me and my friends just finished our mini fellowship meeting. And I really feel good about it. I'm no holy person but I'm pretty sure that I have a very big God backing me up all the time. I don't know much about the practices of faith but I do know how to communicate with Him. Some people "might" find it boring but I do love having such conversation. Actually this is the first time that we've done this here at the office, and I am hoping that it will last long.

So, today we had a conversation about the ups and downs of our lives. I'm pretty sure that most of us had these kind of things as well. As ya'll know, I'm the kinda person who can have the world with one go ever since I was a little girl. But little did you know I had hardships too. Hardships that I never thought that I would ever encounter in my life. One time, went my GDaddy died. I was only about 10 years old, I think? It so sudden. One Sunday we were out at the restaurant; having our favorite meal so happy and the next day he was rushed in the hospital and then the next day he was announced dead. Just imagine how heart breaking that moment for me. GDaddy was a lawyer so he can give everything that his family hoped for. I was the first grandchild so I was his favorite. I was treated like a princess when he was alive, I could have everything I laid eyes on in just a point of a finger. GDaddy influenced me so much that I wanted to be a lawyer like him too but all of those died when he left.

Uzumaki Mito, Young Tsunade and the First Hokage Senju Hashirama

A lot of things changed since then. I'm very sure God used GDaddy's death to open my eyes and change for the better. Fairy tales only do exist in books. But I'm really happy with everything now. It's all because I have a very dependable God that never left my side. And it just feels so good to build great friendship with the people you work with everyday, and to get to know more of who they are and to grow together in the aspect of faith.

I pray that ya'll have a wonderful life no matter what happens. Have a safe weekend guys.
And again, thanks for droppin by. :)

Kick it!

Happy Hump Day! Haha! At first I was really puzzled why is it called "Hump Day Wednesday". And based on my research, the reason they call it like that is because; first, it is the mid day, meaning that one has made it "over the hump (dreaded Monday and Tuesday " towards the end of the week; second, it's also the best day to do EVERYTHING and last but not the least it's that today, Wednesday is best day to get laid!!! (ohhhh.. reaaallly now? Hmmmm..) Haha!

Okay, so I think Imma gonna let the third reason slip away. Haha! Reasons, one and two was kinda perfect to go with. Okay so today, (FINALLY!) I did my mom's errand BUT (of course) I forgot to do mine. Sigh. :( Okay, so skip with the drama and stuff, actually I was thinking of what to write about for today and lots of ideas came my way and one of the best is what happened to me over the weekend. 'Cause over the weekend, like I mention on my previous entry that I went out with my GMom and Aunt for shopping. We were at the mall and I dropped by at a store named DC.

Honestly, I've been wanting a pair of DC shoes ever since I laid eyes on it. Okay, so I was checking and looking for some good kick to swipe and buy; just out of the blue my Aunt goes "What? You buying cheap flat shoes and get some expensive rubber shoes AGAIN?! Stop it!" then walks out of the store. And I don't have the power to get mad at her! I just couldn't do anything but to sigh. *poker face* Actually, I want to answer her saying like "What the heck?! This is my money not yours. And talk for yourself! Like you have a room filled with shoes so don't go nagging about shoes on me!" But I didn't, 'cause I was never taught to raise my voice to elderly people. Sigh. But one day, I tell you. Imma gonna go get those shoes. And you guys are the first to know what I bought.

Okay, so moving on again. In relation to that I would like to share some of my shoes that I really fell in love in one look. Confession: Ever since I was a little girl, I am big fan of shoes not to mention some are in the pricey ranks of course. I don't mind much about the brand, it's like once I see it and I can hear it call my name, IMMA GONNA GO AND OWN IT!

 ZOO YORK'S BLACK MAMBA

SOMERVILLE BLCK/GREY/RED FROM ZOO YORK

It's not that I have a thing for Zoo York, I just like their style is so street and its really comfortable for me. Like I can pair it with any jeans or like shorts and/or skirts perhaps. But ZY is kind of expensive if you are the type to save tho. I got these for  low price actually. The price there was the previous one. Like I said before, I'm the type to save too so I'd go out for the things that are on sale instead of buying it a one time big time. It's all about practicality 'cause I'm no rock star that rolls with money all the time.

NIKE AIR

ADIDAS RUNNING SHOES

Nike and Adidas are good sports shoes too. I have my Fila at home too but that's only for playing badminton and tennis. Nike and Adidas has a vast of picks but some are quite expensive as well, you just need to look for the perfect one that would suit your style and budget.

Okay, so these are the few of my many (WOW!) shoe collection. Haha! Call me a shoe freak? And I'll just say "Suck it!" Haha! Actually I am waiting for another pair of shoes that I am so super crazy about! It's also an Adidas item. As I said, I'm not much  of a brand freak it just so happened that the nice ones carries a certain brand. I'm pretty sure ya'll heard about Jeremy Scott. He's one heck of a genius when it comes to designing! Well, of course that's just my opinion. Haha! I really like his shoe design tho. Starting from the teddy bear, the bones, especially the wings! Oh My God! The wings are so damn pretty amazing! It just saddens me that I couldn't get one 'cause it's on limited stocks. Sigh. BUT! With the help of my super SUPER EVER generous Aunt (of course, she's the sister of my bitchy Aunt who won't let me buy more shoes), she'll get me one; she said and I believe! :)

HAHAHAHAHA! Honestly, I so can't wait for these baby to come home to me.

What about you guys, what's your kind of thing?

Thanks for reading and HAPPY HUMPING! ROFL

Sweet, sweet Friday

Work week attitude. Haha!

Happy Friday guys! FINALLY! The work week is about to ended! Woohooo! But I'll still work 'til 11pm. (booooo!!!) Anyway, I really like Fridays ever since I was little, I feel so alive 'cause I can be free from all of those dreaded stress! And you can like chill out with friends too. I remember like a year or so back, I always go out on a Friday night but now, not so much. 'Cause I am so looking forward for Saturdays and Sudays' main event! Oh yeah! Uh-huh! Oh? And don't you worry, I'll all let you know what I did. *wink

"Sweet, sweet Friday" is the title not only that tho. Upon arriving at work today, I was some tables that has surprise chocolates unfortunately I wasn't given tho BUT! It's okay 'cause chocolate's aren't that so much of a big deal for me. And in line to that, I think that most of the people I know eats chocolate on this day. Well not chocolates rather in particular, just something sweet.

Sebastian Michaelis serves his little master Ciel Phantomhive his usual tea.

What's up with sweets and Fridays tho? Yeah, I know they give us that good vibe after eating. I got a friend that always mooches chocolatesa from me (haha!). Oh yeah? I said chocolate isn't much of a deal for me, just so you know guys, my Aunt just likes to stack up goods, so yeah we have a lot of chocolatesw at home and sometimes if I feel like eating, I bring some. BUT (again) this certain friend of mine is so much of a chocolate freak! Good for him that he doesn't get fat tho. I just feel bad for him for eating lots and lots of chocolate more that twice a day tho. Haha! I really don't know why I feel bad for him tho OR MAYBE, I'm just jealous 'cause he eats handful of chocolate and still don't gain an inch *shock?! NAH! Haha!

Anyhow, What about you, how did your Friday go? Are you going out later? Cool! Have fun!

Again, HAPPY FRIDAY guys! :)

Thank you for droppin by!

To be or Not to be?

What's up guys? Sigh. It's been sometime since I had another entry. It's not that I'm lazy in writing "again" (Haha!), it's just I'm kinda busy working on my manga. Haha! Yes, you heard me right; I'm working on my own manga. A manga artist is called Mangaka 漫画家 in Japanese.As I've said before, a manga is not, not a fruit! Sigh! It is a Japanese versions of Comic books. As been said, ever since I was little, I grew up in front of the T.V. I watch tons and tons of cartoons in my entire life. But I never once wanted to be a manga artist. 'Cause you know why? Well, let's just say that I really suck at drawing!

 I want to be a manga artist ever since I started reading manga too, like running 2 years, I'm not sure. It's just so amazing how can they (mangakas) keep the story even more interesting one chapter at a time. And how super duper the drawings can be?! Sigh. I feel said, only dreaming. Haha! But fear not! One of these days, just one of these days! I've be able to come up with my own, it may not be publish like a pro but I just want to have something interesting to brag. Harharhar!

The story that I'm making has some fusion. Fusion of Japanese base and English base. Okay, when I say English, I mean England like stories, during the time of Queen Victoria. Dude! Could you just imagine the characters wearing those kinds of clothes? Ohh! I get thrilled! Haha!

As I was saying, my story is a fusion of romance and battle manga. Actually a lot of manga that kind is very popular but I'm mixing some history in this one.

The story is being told by a somewhat high school student named, Nishimura Ryuujin. He's having dreams about some girl living in the time of yes, Queen Victoria. And he gets really annoyed because he has a feeling that he's somewhat responsibility for that girl. As the story goes on, if Ryuujin has some annoying pleasant dreams; the girl Kobayashi Miko is always having nightmares of her past life.

Yes guys, as much as possible I want to talk about the story but it's no where near complete so, I'll still work on it. As for the drawings, like I said I suck at it so I just asked some friends to draw it for me.

And yes! I have really high hopes for the drawing though I really suck at it big time. So guys, if you have any ideas, kindly share. Sigh. I am super excited to finish this!

Thanks for reading! :)

3rd World Champion

Are you ready to rumble?!

Yeah! That's how Michael Buffer puts it away. It's so cool when he opens for the main fight. Truth is, I'm not very keen with sports; as long as I know what is right and wrong, win or lose I'm totally good with it. Never was I the athlete type of person but I did try a lot of stuff like, badminton (I'm kinda good there but I'd still improve for sure), soccer (it's a tiring sport; I'm not very sure if I can keep up with the training tho), tennis (Oh! This is one of the best that I've tried so far), basketball (well, I can dribble but can't shoot well, practice tho) and volleyball (OMG! I so own this sport! Haha!)

So over the weekend (don't I just love weekend stories?), my dad was watching TV, boxing. Boxing is very big nowadays, specially if the fighters are so well known. So yes, the fight was between Nonito "The Filipino Flash" Donaire (one handsome dude, if I must say. Haha!) from Talibon, Bohol, Philippines and Toshiaki "Speed King" Nishioka who's from Kakogawa, Hyogo, Japan.

Nonito Donaire and Toshiaki Nishioka

It sure was one bad ass fight tho. They are kinda' head to head tho. According to the data when it comes to height and reach, Nishioka can definitely dominate the fight. But NO. Haha! Filipinos are known to be short but this Nonito's one short but troublesome dude. I'm trying to be fair as much as I can here, honestly. I was never rooting for anybody, I just watch. This fight is so different form my point of understanding. Neither of them underestimated their opponents rather, they encouraged one other to have a good fight.

I enjoyed it, really. First few rounds, it was kind of boring 'cause they were very observant of each other but as the fight gets heated, Nishioka opens a little but gets back thrice as hard. Nonito moves a little, show what he's made of and goes for a point. The fight was kinda flashy, they are both known for speed but it all went down to whom has the most power.

Nishioka first fell down on the 6th round, but I wasn't very attentive while watching 'cause it was not my thing to watch boxing in the first place but he got back by hurting Nonito in the face (I think?).  Just like I mentioned earlier as the fight gets heated they started to throw hard punches. And 9th round comes, YES! The super round, Nishioka was knocked down with a straight punch. I think, the reason for his defeat was his consciousness of Nonito's uppercut. Surely, everyone getting hit by it would definitely go down.

  

Nishioka tried hard to continue the fight but the Ref called its TKO. I have to give it to them for putting an awesome, awesome show for the fans. Tho Nishioka lost, he was one tough fighter.

The Philippines is not much of a rich country but I'm pretty confident of what we can do for us to be successful in one thing. I'm proud to be a Pinoy no matter what, good or bad just whatever.

Thank you for reading. :)

It's more fun in the Philippines!

NATURO: It's not JUST anime.

Today, when I woke up, and the first thing that came out of my mouth was "I'm bored." I really don't know why I said that in the first place but as time passed by, I realize that yes; I feel bored all the time as if my life has no direction, path, light or whatever you wanna call it. Lately, I've been having this feeling that I'm just a tasteless food that no one dares to touch. Sigh. And I know myself too well, and thinking that it's one of those days that I feel really, really depress with no certain reason at all.

That awkward feeling that you get when you don't want to talk to anybody, and you just want to be alone until you feel better, or that feeling that you wanted put up like 20,000 layers of barrier to isolate yourself from the rest of the world. Yeah, I get that feeling a lot actually. What about you? I hope that you don't have the same disorder (Wow. Did I really said that? Hmm?!) as I do.

Okay so the feeling goes on, took a bath hoping that I would feel a little better but it seems like it has no effect after all. After preparing myself, I fired up my mean machine; first check facebook (OF COURSE, DUH?!) And saw a post there for Uzumaki Naruto. You know what super hit manga/anime nowadays. I such a fan of it, REALLY. :)

Naruto manga, cover page.

The post was about his birthday. It made me smile and a sudden flash back came in. Traveling memory lane all of a sudden and it came to me,  how it inspired me to strive and work hard for those people I treasure the most just like him. As I was looking at some photos in the net, I saw this..

 Fouth Hokage Namikaze Minato, Uzumaki Kushina and baby Naruto.

It made me realize, how blessed I was having both my Mom and Dad and a handful of siblings by me all the time. Naruto never met his father and mother until the age of 16 (I think?). His parents died protecting him and their village from the rampaging Nine Tailed Demon Fox.

Honestly, there are times that I get mad at how "stupid" my parents can be at times but it was also a way to let me know  how they love me. Talking the role of both Mom and Dad is no joke, they will sacrifice so much just to give you the world. This manga/anime always reminds me of that.

 Minato and Kushina protecting Naruto from the Nine Tailed Demon Fox. Anime and Manga.

And I came back to my senses, I've always thought of myself as a bridge, a bridge that would be strong enough to with stand all the adversities that may come or block the way and a bridge that would help connect my love ones with their dreams. Do I sound mushy? Hehe. *scratch head* Well, what can I do? That's what I feel.

Really, big thanks to Naruto and all his effort I can now have a brighter day. Haha!

And I'm pretty sure if Kushina and Minato were still alive by now, they would be soooo damn proud of what their son, Naruto has achieved. I know, Naruto is just some fictional character but he was made for a purpose, to serve as an entertainment and to be an inspiration to others. Thank you Naruto-Kun. And today, I would just like to greet you a happy HAPPY BIRTHDAY. :)

The "bestest" birthday ever. :)

What gives you inspiration? I wanna know. Thanks! :)

Weekend: SunDATE

Sigh. Weekends are one of the best days ever. I usually sleep on those days, 'cause that's (probably) the only day that I have for myself. And sometimes I also spend my weekends with friends, chilling, watching movies, pigging out and just plain out chat time while having a drink or two. Also weekends are super essential for families, sample just like me and my fam, everyone goes to work or to school so I barely get to see them during weekdays. And this weekend, I decided to stay at my other house (yes, I have two houses like that, harhar!) Saturday, we just to soccer class; 'cause my cousins are studying and practicing and church and grocery. Boring right? Haha! I know 'cause that's my Auntie's gig.

Here's the real deal. Yesterday, my GMom and I went to the mall and spend just some cash. *wink Haha! We had a super late lunch at Bon Chon. After grabbing a grub we then went to the sale. Yahoo! My super favorite part EVER!

Guys, honestly now; don't you just love sales? *Eyes shine* YES! See? Now you know how I feel! This is one of the best times that I can make it rain like a celebrity. Actually, it's been two straight weeks that I'm at the malls. And yes, I bought my beloved shoes. Sigh. :)

Surely pink and purple really goes together well. Nike Air, Idk what style but I like it!

Adidas, Idk the style either but I feel comfortable in them.

I got these babies like in a neat price that saved my sweet ass in being blacklisted in the banks. Haha!

I must say, if you'r so into shopping like I am, why not wait for the nearest sale in the malls near you, just be updated so if you are to spend a 'huge" amount of money in one thing why not get a thing or two in half the price? Yes? Better. It was really fun shopping, stress buster as always! But cash robber too! Harhar! So shop wisely mates!  :)

 A-okay! Satisfied consumer, that I am. :)

How did you spend your weekend? :) Thanks for droppin by.

A Taste of Korea

Hey. How was your weekend? Mine was pretty good. Spend some quality time with my brothers and sisters. Honesty, we all have different lives, friends and interest now so we don't get to hang out that often. But over the weekend, I had the chance to sit back and relax with them.

Over the weekend, my phone reminder rang to remind me that my shopping card dues to get the points so I quickly pact and went out. I was with my younger brother and my other sister left to meet up with her best friend. I was just thinking that this would be a really quick errand but it turn to be more fun vat the end. After attending to some errand, I decided to ask my brother where he likes to eat, he mentioned a certain restaurant that we always eat but I don't feel like eating there and suggested that we try something different and we end up eating at Bon Chon.

 My little brother whom I named, Nikko. :)

 Long before I started working as an English Secondary Language tutor, I've been friends with Koreans that I often meet in church. The are so famous for their Kimchi, its fermented cabbage in pepper paste.

Okay, as I was saying; here are the goods that we ordered. Hope you like it too. And do try it as well. It was so stuffing, delicious and at a reasonable price too. :)

 I had this, Chop Rice box. Two pieces of chicken whether you like it in spicy or soy garlic. I'm so adventurous that I tried the spicy and it was SPICY! LOL And this comes with a drink, choose from soft drinks or iced tea at 145Php.

 One of my favorite is the Japchae, stir fried sweet potato noodles only at 75Php.

 Nikko had Crispy Squid Rice box 145Php

 My sister, Xhieng had Fish Rice box meal at 145Php

And for desert we tried the Ko-Yo, or the Korean Yorgurt. We picked these 'cause all of use had the spicy meals. Not only that it was good, it kills the heat as well.

 Blueberry Torte at 75Php

 Banoffee Pie at 75Php

 I had a great time hanging out with them, And we got super stuffed after.Nothing beats a good meal and a good relationship, Yes? :)

**NOTE: So sorry for the so low quality pictures, I took those using my Nokia E63.

Kicked Out!!

Today was suppose to be a very lazy day for me because it's Friday BUT it wasn't. I woke up around 9:30 in the morning then fire up my desktop computer 'cause I need to look at some videos in YouTube. Upon doing, my Mom who was taking a bath called out, asking me to shut the water outside the out and so I did it. And guess what? I was locked out of the house! Isn't it a stupid thing?! And guess who locked me out? It was my dog Cha-cha! Crazy mutt! 

She's the smartest local dog that I've ever had. I SWEAR!

I don't know when the hell did she learn how to open the gate but it was crazy I tell you. I was just talking how I adore my pets but this one, err! I am so pissed! I just woke up and here's my breakfast scene? Geezz. But it's cool, I was just laughing at myself for doing errands in a half awake state.

Ever had that kind of moment too? Care to share? Thanks! :)

Best Friend

I'm no pet enthusiast but I sure do like animals. When I was a kid, I lived with household pets, dogs, stray cats, and birds like doves, chicken. And if I remember it correctly, whenever I hang out with the grown-ups (back then) I use to play with farm animals. But my favorite would have to be dogs. :)

What are dogs for? I seriously treat my dogs as if they are my friends. I hang out with them, talk to them though they don’t really talk back but the warmth, love and the presence of course. There’s just something in them that when you like talk to them, they totally understand you.

Real buddies, Akamaru and Inuzuka Kiba

I have a dog(s) at home, one is Cha-cha. She’s just a local dog from Batangas, she replaced our 10 year old Japanese Spits, named Kitty who died just last year. Kitty was my best friend. I go home because of work and she just sits there, waiting or my arrival patiently. And would like hug, and smile warmly for me. And in that moment I feel at ease, all my stress is gone just because of that. But one day, sometime in August of last year, I just feel excited to go home and play with her. And as I’m getting near the house, I feel cold and right then and there, I found a lifeless dog. It was such a painful experience of the both of us, we basically grew up together, and she protected and cuddles the family for 10 years. Sigh. I know it’s been a year but I still do miss her, A LOT.

Cha-cha, a local dog that we exported from the province. Haha!

And not long ago, we bought another dog. We named him Happy. Upon seeing him we felt very happy so we named him that. He’s a lemon white beagle, yes the Snoopy like one.

July 15, 2012 The day we bought Happy :)

He's super ADORABLE! He likes to smell, be lazy, play all the time and hump during the first week that he was with us. He are some photos of his snooping around the house. LOL

 Humping Happy :))

 Lazy Happy

 Playful Happy

 Oh? And he likes to tease Cha-cha while eating too! LOL

 But eventually I had to give him up because I'm quite scared I might lack the time to feed and play with him because we have different body clocks. And now, I actually miss him too. And now I am thinking of getting me another dog. Haha! But this time, I'll see to it that it lasts LONG. I want a pug really. I hope I'll get one, really soon.

What about you and your furry friend? Tell a story. Thanks for droppin by. :)
