There's a place called Wonderland.

Because a star shines brightest during the darkest of nights. Because everything can fall into place with just one warm embrace. Because a pot of gold awaits at the end of the rainbow. And because I know dreams do come true.

My Crate Escape.


I am back for a moment. :)

I'll be back to school for my twelve noon class later on so while I'm having my three hour break, I decided to do something decent. It was a toss between reviewing my notes and blogging. Obviously, the latter won by a landslide. That would be two votes out of two since I only have two hands.
I just don't want my blog to feel rather left out. No, I didn't become Victor Van Dort's corpse bride. It's just that I am currently caught in my own whirlwind of school works and another 200 hours of internship and thesis and technical study and pre - board exam review
during Saturdays. As much as I wanted to post something here before I forget the details of what I was going to write, I couldn't find the time. School has just been consuming all my time and energy.
There were few times I have been able to sneak away. Too bad some didn't last long. Before long Pito would either appear carrying a Walt Disney book or drag me outside to buy candy. Reading to Pito has become one of our cutest bonding moments. I try to teach him new words but he's just head over heels in love with Mickey Mouse whom he calls Wickey Mouse. I once tried to introduce Minnie Mouse to him. His efforts showed but Wickey Mouse has clearly won his heart.

Pito: (pointing to Minnie Mouse) Wickey Mouse!
Arnee: No. It's Minnie Mouse. Minnie.

Pito: Minnie Mouse?
Arnee: Yup! Minnie Mouse!
Pito: (happily) Minnie Wickey Mouse!


He was so happy while saying Minnie Wickey Mouse over
and over again. It was like he had just found his new bestfriend.

So each morning, eventhough I'm almost late for school or th
e office, I would happily oblige whenever he sits beside me with a new Walt Disney book wide open while saying "Basa tayo!". The Walt Disney set, composed of books 1-18 were mine when I was young. Now I feel very proud that Pito has become so inclined to books. Thank you so much Wickey, I mean, Mickey Mouse! (wink)

Some of the very few times I managed to sneak away were mostly spent with Archie. We're either at the mall, the movie house or in my house watching DVD.

Still together! Still lost!


Skipper: We've lost engine one.
Private: And engine two is no longer on fire.
Kowalski:[on the microphone] This is your captain speaking. I have good news and bad news. The good news is that we will be landing immediately.
[everyone claps]
Kowalski: Tha bad news is we're crash landing.

Last week , I dragged him into the movie house to watch Madagascar 2. As expected, we were laughing our heads off the whole time. I loved the first movie and I was crazy about this one too. :) Archie and I were among the four people who didn't come with kids. Everybody else was toting along little kids! It was fun seeing that they actually made seeing the movie a family affair. The movie wouldn't be the same without little kiddie faces lighting up once their parents finally got hold of their movie tickets. It was remarkable. As soon as the lights went out, I was laughing my heart out along with everybody else. :)
