Kind of a Useless Update, But the World Needs More Photos of Children.

December 26, 2009 |

Today, I attempted to clean my room and work on my thesis. I managed to clean a portion of my room and continue ignoring my thesis. However! I have unearthed some gems. I will now show you photos from 1993, when my family went on our first trip to North America. These are from Vancouver, Canada. :)


Prospect Point! My family looking cute. And me… eating string.


Us, on a boat with mama.


My brother, channeling “Mansard Roof!”


With papa, looking at some fishies.


Me, with a starfish. I don’t understand what I was feeling.
My facial expression does not help very much.


In 1993, my life was books and animals.


My sister being a cutie pie.
She turned three years old about a month after this photograph.


HAHAHAHA. Booger jokes.


Favorite! Me & a beluga whale. I think we can all say there was a connection.

OK, that’s all! I wish I could say something more profound about these photographs, or why I posted them. But I just did because I thought we were cute children (what the heck happened, right?!) and I liked beluga whales.

It’s funny how these photographs bring our family closer, in a we’re-all-laughing-at-the-same-thing or that-was-a-nice-time-wasn’t-it? kind of way, whenever we look at them together. My dad says he looks at these pictures when he’s feeling sad or whatever, and he gets cheered up instantly.

I can say the same for myself, since that’s what I did the whole afternoon — and I’m not even sad. Again, apologies to my thesis. I’m afraid that I’m going to have to wing it, making you.

    I hate that, unlike your brother, I had no knowledge of VW awesomeness in my toddler years. D: Plus, props on the all-denim ensemble. Hahaha stylin

    Did you go on a cruise or something?

  2. Carina says:

    Raymond Hahaha. It’s his triple-threat! Who knew they made denim shirts? I didn’t! But then again, I am mostly ignorant. I don’t think it was a cruise! But there was a playground inside. Insanityyy.

  3. Raymond says:

    Yeah denim shirts are pretty popular now. I see so many people in school wearing that now… Ahead of the curve by two decades kuya mo! Galing. Haha

  4. Carina says:

    Raymond: Yeah, he was a little hipster, wasn’t he?

  5. Sarah says:

    Carina! You and your family are freakin’ adorableeeee. Srsly. Also, beluga whales? My favorite – possibly because of that children’s song.

    I can’t get over the cuteness in this post! ahaha

  6. Carina says:

    Sarah: Holy shiitake, you are here! <3 I miss LiveJournal, to be honest. :( I hope you are doing well!

  7. Sarah says:

    Yes yes! I do love reading your blog, not to sound creepy or anything. Hope all is well with you too!

  8. Camille says:

    I get what you mean about the ‘we’re all laughing at the same thing’ thing. The past, in a funny way, really brings the family together.

    Hope you had a good Christmas! :)

  9. Carina says:

    Camille, HA! I wonder if it’s a Filipino thing, or a general family thing.

    I did have a nice & quiet Christmas. Hope yours was swell also. :)

  10. I love this post!
    I am from Vancouver, Canada and immediately noticed the ‘Prospect Point’ sign!

    walkthroughpuddles, I’m glad you enjoyed! I have the vaguest memories of Vancouver (mostly because we were so young when we went), but I remember stepping off the plane and marveling at how our exhalations turned into smoke because of how cold it was. :)
