family fun

Photobuckett

he set of photos where this shot is a part of, is the root of all evil…so to speak, of my recent heartache. the pain of losing a whole lot of good photos in the perfect setting, perfect subject is simply heart stabbing, mind wrenching pain!!! i tell ya! needless to say, i was oh so mad and sad the past days because of this and up until today i just can’t get over it. that said, i have decided to head back to Plimoth Plantation which is a trip to…

“the 17th century!where you can smell a pottage cooking inside a colonial house, or watch a traditional Wampanoag dugout boat being made….ask questions from skilled educators and interpreters. Make your textbooks come alive!”

..anyway…back to the photo. to make a long story short…this shot was one of the reasons why my files had to be deleted from the SD card that day. thinking i have already saved them on my hard drive. we went to this kite fest last Sunday for some family fun in the sun.oh it’s such a whole twisted story really.. i have 3 SD cards…all full. my card reader went dead.  i moved the photos from the said card through a USB, direct from the camera..for the very first time.my hard drive and external hard drive boinked on me too, losing space to save up files.i saw the photos…all of them in one particular folder! they were really good, if i should add. at least as far as i’ve seen in the few seconds i had to view them before we headed out.needless to say, i was rushing out and it sort of prompted me about the memory not enough to save [even send to recycle bin!] so it asked me if i want some files deleted permanently, and yes you guessed it right…i clicked yes. thinking the files are safe in one folder!!!! d’uh!!!!siguro, i just need to pour this all out by blogging about it…gaya ng ginagawa ko ngayon, para makalimutan ko na ang kaga—lingan ko! hahaha! anyway…napalitan naman ng ibang kasayahan ang lahat ng nangyari…sa pamamagitan nitong araw na ito…that was well spent. with the FAMILY! and well documented. more photos to come! :)

it’s ON!

Photobucket…marahil ang tanong ninyo ngayon ay…ano ang ginagawa ng pagmumukha ng anak ko dito sa temang ito? simple! isa sa mga disadvantage ng pagiging self-proclaimed mommyrazzi ay ang katotohanang ang mga anak natin ay sawang sawa nang naririnig ang pangalan nila para lamang makunan sila ng larawan. maya maya, paulit ulit. smile, look…ayaw na ayaw na nilang marinig yang mga katagang yan! hindi ba totoo? as in!!! kaya naman ang picture na ito ay nagbigay ng kaligayahan sa akin, dahil paminsan minsan sinuswerte ako na para bagang may instant SWITCH ON ang mga anak ko at bigla nalang silang makikisama sa kanilang mommy, and i get to capture these precious moments…so to speak. sarap ng pakiramdam!…pero may isa pa akong lahok! eto ang aking paboritong gadget ever! ang aking ever reliable Iphone…Photobucket…isang pindot lamang dito, kung saan saan na ako nakakarating! mapa umaga pag gising…sa gabi, bago matulog…maging sa gitna ng gabi kapag ako ay nagising, kinakapa ko ito sa ilalim ng unan ko at ..hello! PINDOT ulit! hehe!lahok para sa Litratong Pinoy…PINDOT/SWITCH!

Words get in the way

Photobucket…since i missed last week’s theme, i’m trying to make amends by posting early today! yeehaw! plus, i have been looking forward to this theme. i might have a bunch of photos that will fit perfectly, but i decided to post something that is very fresh..just out. nope not from the oven this time though hehe!the photo above is a piece of rock from the American’s first landing on the moon at the time of President John F. Kennedy’s very short reign.Photobucket

The U.S. space program went full throttle in 1961 when President John F. Kennedy challenged the nation to claim a leadership role in space and land a man on the Moon before the end of the decade. The Soviet Union, America’s rival in the Cold War, had surged ahead of the United States with spectacular achievements in space that struck fear into the hearts of many American citizens. Soviet leaders hailed these feats as a triumph of Communism. When a leading American physicist was asked what would be found on the Moon, he replied, “Russians”.
