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?

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.

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

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

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

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

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! :)

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. :)

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. :)
