You Tube

Question: If my kids aged (going) 4, 6 and 8 has learned to watch and navigate youtube, does it mean they are part of the youtube generation?

Answer: It has left me a little worried. We have no cable tv subscription, but now, they already learned how to use the internet. First, it was just Yahoo Games. And now, it's Youtube. I hope they get stuck on the characters they know, mainly Tom & Jerry, Pingu, and the DC anime heroes.



Youtube delight. What's next?

Crime

Last Monday, February 7 at the office while working overtime, I was duped and robbed of cash, hubby's mobile 3G phone, and important identification, passbooks, and passports. First things first during crimes like this in the Philippines, the victim reports to the police, not so much to obtain justice (asa ka pa?), but to hasten issuance of bank requirements for lost passbooks: police report, Affidavit of Loss, etc.

Imagine my chagrined when the documenting officer asked me to return for the police report after 3 days. He had to thank his lady fate I was not the one licensed to use a firearm... otherwise, it could have been a bloodier day... Anyway, I was built to have my way (hah!) and with a little wit, had my Affidavit issued in several hours...

After about a week, a good natured truck driver returned the robbed clutch bag with its important document contents, sans, of course, the cash and the gadget.

My kids discussed about the act for quite a few times and one discussion went something like this:

Ivong: Di ba Mamang, ibinalik ng pulis yong bag mo ano? (Isn't it Mom that a police returned your bag?)
Jezreel: Neee, saan. Saan nga pulis daydiay! Tao! Tao 'niya Mang? (Oh no! It's not a police. It's a human! It's human Mom, right?)

p.s.
My kids speak Ilocano, Tagalog and English in mixed format. They're al'right.

Christmas Party 2007

Jezreel and classmates at Villasis Central School, Grade 2-B...

Kayang-kaya



Playing with their semi-Lego blocks, Jezreel tackles a new design/pattern saying, "Kayang-kaya with Modess!"

Haven't clicked on them playing. Gives me migraine seeing scattered 3 brands, very tiny objects all over the house! One was even sniffed by Ivang once. Good thing their nurse-father was around at that time!

Ivang in her school... playroom and classroom...
