Dr. Jose Rizal once said  “Ang hindi lumingon sa pinaggalingan ay hindi makakarating sa paroroonan.” (He who does not look back at where he came from will not reach his destination.) Reason why I thought it important that my kids learn about their paternal grandfather’s (and aunts) as well as their dad’s second home, Singapore. It was also to somehow help me and my mom feel better about the loss of my dad. We did enjoy our trip then though I forgot to take a photo of sis in law. :D

Random – Weekend Snapshot

Posted by on Jun 1, 2009 in home stories, stock photos, Weekend Snapshot | 6 comments

skyshot

This sky shot was taken sometime in the middle of the week. Friday and Saturday were rainy days so there wasn’t much to do but stay home. Hubby played a lot that time…Guitar Hero, and a couple more games (rainbow six I think and another one I didn’t bother  to ask the title of, I just don’t like games with too much blood).

The kids played Mario games in their room instead…since I do not allow them to watch too much bloodshed games…I on the other hand finished some opps (yes, trying to raise some funds hehe!).  Cooking most of the time but unfortunately not able to study for the exams. I finished school and now I need to take the test on Wednesday, good thing tomorrow and tuesday are holidays.

reddress

At home, I asked dawty to try on the strappy sandals I bought her last year, they were still big then but now they fit her perfectly. You can see this same pair on my other blog’s header. We’re having too much debates over shoes, dresses and socks. She likes wearing socks with whatever shoes she wears and its a mismatch of course! She even wear socks while sleeping and it does irk me because its too hot, she wouldn’t even listen if I tell her that it will make her feet sweaty and smelly…sturkopf (stubborn) I would say! She’s starting to dislike wearing dresses too and nicey shoes like that…

puzzle

Meanwhile the little boy enjoyed playing with wooden puzzles, their Oma brought when she came. He was so ecstatic about these and about the cheese that the Oma brought too. Below photo was taken at breakfast, he was munchin on nothing but cheese and was so happy about it. If asked if he likes the cheese he would enthusiastically answer, “Hmmm yummy! Käse käse  käse!” while jumping.

So how’s your weekend? Hope you enjoyed it too!

Silver Buffalo Berry

redberry

The toughest berries around…Ideal cover and nesting site for many birds. Preferred food source of many songbirds and sharptail grouse. Good late winter food source for birds.

I miss macrography so much…I haven’t done in much this winter and also not when I got a new apparat, it was easier to take shots with point and shoot camera I say. This is one of the very few shots I took with the new cam.

Here’s hoping for spring and all the blossoms to come, although I know allergies would be inevitable too!

Enjoy the coming week!

Weekend Snapshot – Rails

rails2

These were taken at the U6 train station Gumpendorferstrasse, 15th district of Vienna.

This is one of the older stations that were built in Vienna dating as far back as 1898. The structure and architecture does spell ancient but this does add to the character of this train stop.

Last year, it underwent renovation as some of the stations too, the newly painted walls unfortunately became target for shoe graffiti.

It snowed but the sun was shining so its the perfect time for snow fun! The playground opposite our building was the perfect spot to ‘sled’ or ‘snowboard’ lol.

Also the best time to build a snowman!

Weekend Snapshot – Pallas Athena

statue pallas athena-2

The tram passed by the Austrian Parliament building so I took the chance to snap the giant statue of Pallas Athena, unknowingly with the man included.

mags

Going further by foot, I photographed a lot of interesting people, some saw me aiming the camera and stared, others looked away. This man would top my list of being the most interesting, his expression though tells otherwise.

Enjoy the coming week!
