Best in Computer May 6, 2009

My Dad, a certified geek, said he is very proud of me. During our graduation day for school year 2008-2009 at Merville Sacred Heart School I was named ‘Best in Computer’ for my Nursery 1 Class and was awarded a medal.   My mom is very proud of me, too, and she went on stage with me to accept my medal. 

 

I really like learning about computers and it helped a lot that both mom and dad have really nice laptops that they let me and my cool brother Johan use evey once in a while.

 

My very first Haircut March 7, 2009

I HAVEN’T had a real haircut yet since birth.  Until February 01, 2009, that is.

My dad and mom worked very hard in convincing me to have a haircut.  Not that I don’t look good with my long hair, they said.  They just wanted to see how I would look like with shorter hair that’s all.  Better to experiment with different hair styles while I am still young, they went on to argue.  Looking back, I now have a funny feeling that they had other ulterior motives.  I think my dad was getting concerned that my bath time every morning was taking too long.  Or perhaps I was starting to consume too much shampoo it was already affecting the family budget.  Hmmm…

In the end my dad’s succeeded in sweet talking me into getting a haircut, and before I fully realized what I got myself into I was already in a salon and a lady was already washing my hair.  I have to confess that that felt really good.

And it so it came to pass.  My mom and dad seemed genuinely please with the outcome.  My cool brother Johan exclaimed, “COOL!”  Modesty aside, I looked very good with my erstwhile long hair.  But I do look great with my new hair-do.  It feels great, too!

MY DAD, my cool brother Johan, and myself went to visit my mom who was working at her office one weekend (that’s right, she works even on weekends from time to time).

My mom let me try sitting behind her table.  It felt great!  When I grow up I’ll have my own spacious office with a big and nice table and a soft and comfortable swivel chair just like my mom.  That’s for sure. :-)

"Giggling"


 

MY TITA KET is wondering why I do not have any baby photos in my blog whereas my cool brother Johan has some in his. She’s barking at the wrong tree.  It’s my dad’s fault, that is why. :-)

 

Here now are some of my baby photos (taken on the occasion of my Christening). (more…)

 

I’m Back! November 22, 2008

marielle_at_philips1Hi! I’m back and it’s good to be back!

It’s been almost two years since my last post.  Blame it to my dad.  You know, being a minor I need parental guidance with my blog.  And my dad has been preoccupied with his own blog for about a year now that he kinda forgot mine.  Hmmpt. :-(

Pero bati ko na siya ulit (I’ve forgiven him) because he now helps me again with my blog.  The first thing he did to get me re-started is to migrate my blog from blogspot.com to wordpress.com.  I will not bother myself asking him why we had to move my blog.  I trust him with these things.

And because my blog has been in “deep freeze” for so long I have a lot of catching up to do.  So expect to hear a lot from me soon.  I’ll tell you all about my adventures in the past two years plus my present and future activities and preoccupations. 

So do visit my blog site often, willya?  Thanks.

Different people describe me in different ways. Most say I took to my Mom’s looks (to the obvious delight of my mom). Some risk saying that my looks came from my Dad, to my Mom’s chagrin. My Mom has to agree though that I got my Dad’s sense of humor and charming smile. 

Strangers often mistake me for a Chinese or a Korean — a very pretty Chinese or Korean girl, that is. I don’t mind the descriptions. Everybody seems to agree that I look pleasing anyway.
Thanks to my Mom’s penchant for buying me really nice clothes (and bling-blings) and my Ate Baby’s hairdressing skills, I manage to project different looks on different occasions.

I started schooling in June 2006. I am currently enlisted in the Pre-Nursery class.

I was so thrilled to meet new friends. My best friends are Yen-yen and Trish. but Yen-yen had to go to the States after a few weeks in school. But that’s okay. I have since made several other friends. There’s Ronalyn, AJ, Timothy, Carlos, Sinica, Rolly, and many more.

 

I love to play in the playground with my friends after class.

 

The Making of A Star November 24, 2006

When I was just about 2 years old my Mom and Dad brought me with them at Shopwise – Libis for our monthly household supplies.

While my Mom and Dad were busy filling our grocery cart I was roaming around with my Yaya, Ate Baby (pronounced Bi-be). It was then that I noticed a mini-stage setup somewhere in the food section. A grown up man was calling kids to gather ’round him in front of the stage.

And then some grown up boys and girls wearing colorful costumes went on stage and started dancing to the beat of a fun-filled music.

The people on the stage seemed to be having lots of fun so I decided to join them. It seemed like my Dad was calling me from behind, telling me not to go to the stage. But why shouldn’t I? I knew I could dance as well as those grown up boys and girls, probably even better.

The many people in the audience seemed to be enjoying my song-and-dance performance for they were all smiles and they were clapping their hands all the time. And mind you, the loudest claps came from my Dad. He must be very proud.

Eventually my Mom* joined me on stage together with other kids and their respective moms and we played a game. I don’t remember anymore which game it was but I sure had lots of fun.

* My Mom is the one at the center of the photo right behind me, wearing maroon blouse and red shorts. She was carrying my soon-to-be born brother, Johan, in her tummy at the time.

 

Introducing Lara Marielle November 24, 2006

Hi. I am Lara Marielle. You may call me Marielle for short. 

I am currently about 3 years and 5 months old as this blogsite goes online. My Daddy, Bong, is posting my blogs in my behalf. He gets lots of help from my Mommy, Marie, too.

I have a younger brother, Johan (pronounced Yo-han). He is about 1 year and 9 months old right now. He bears an uncanny resemblance of me, which tells you that he is also very cute. But hey, this is my blogsite so you will find materials mostly about me. Johan will have his own blogsite when he turns 3, I think.

I hope you enjoy getting to know me. I look forward to getting to know all of you, too.
