Cartoon Me✨

"Feeling incredibly grateful for the amazing cartoon drawing of myself created by the talented Ronnel Madrid! 🎨✨ Seeing a cartoon version of myself brought to life in such a fun and whimsical way is truly a special and heartwarming experience.

Rhonnel's attention to detail and creativity truly shines through in this artwork, capturing not only my physical features but also my personality. Every line and curve seems to convey a sense of warmth and joy, making me smile every time I look at it.

Having this custom cartoon drawing is not just a unique piece of art, but also a reminder of the thoughtfulness and care that went into creating it. It's a treasure that I will cherish for years to come.

Thank you, @minecraft27, for sharing your incredible talent with me and for bringing so much happiness into my life with this beautiful cartoon drawing. Your artistic gift is truly a blessing, and I am beyond thankful for this heartfelt creation."

Fantasy World 🗺

Step into the enchanting realm of Fantasy World, nestled in the serene barangay of Masayang in Lemery, Batangas. This whimsical destination was envisioned as a grand theme park filled with thrilling rides, magical attractions, and luxurious hotel accommodations. However, due to unforeseen financial challenges faced by the owner, the dream of a fully operational theme park has yet to come to fruition. For now, Fantasy World stands as a picturesque landmark open to the public for viewing and special prenup photoshoots.

As you approach Fantasy World, its majestic castle-like structure rises elegantly against the backdrop of lush greenery and rolling hills, creating a scene straight out of a fairy tale. The intricate details of the architecture and the vibrant colors that adorn the exterior walls capture the imagination and evoke a sense of wonder in all who lay eyes upon it.

Although the original vision for Fantasy World included a plethora of exciting rides, interactive experiences, and themed areas, visitors can still wander through the grounds and marvel at the charm and beauty of this iconic place. The artificial village surrounding the castle exudes a quaint and inviting ambiance, with cobblestone pathways leading past the supposedly charming shops selling unique souvenirs and delightful treats.

The originally planned gardens of Fantasy World are supposed to be a feast for the senses, filled with exotic blooms, fluttering butterflies, and the gentle whispers of nature. Stroll through the verdant pathways, taking in the sights and sounds of this magical oasis that seems untouched by time.

One of the highlights of Fantasy World is its availability for prenuptial photoshoots, offering couples a fairytale backdrop for capturing their love and creating memories that will last a lifetime. The stunning vistas, enchanting architecture, and whimsical atmosphere provide the perfect setting for romance and celebration.

Visible from the mountains of nearby Taytay City, Fantasy World stands as a beacon of hope and creativity, a testament to the power of imagination and the resilience of dreams. While the original plans for a full-scale theme park and accommodations may have been delayed, the spirit of magic and wonder still thrives within these castle walls, inviting all who visit to step into a world where anything is possible.

So, whether you come to admire the beauty of Fantasy World, capture cherished moments in a prenup photoshoot, or simply bask in the nostalgia of what could have been, this iconic destination in Lemery, Batangas, promises an experience that is truly unforgettable. Embrace the magic, embrace the fantasy, and let your imagination soar within the walls of this enchanting place.

"Even in neglect, the beauty of Fantasy World remains a beacon of wonder, 

captivating eyes from afar and stirring the imagination within."

Paluto sa Dampa Paranaque

Kiddos were craving seafood since the other day, so we decided to eat our dinner in the infamous DAMPA Paluto here in Parañaque. The place has been existing as far as I remember way back 1990s and is popularly known as a seafood market with lots of restos beside it where you and your friends could dine and have your seafood bought from the nearby market cooked the way you requested it. 

Each Paluto house does have its own specialties which they will suggest if you run out of ideas on what dish you wanted on your plates of seafood. Prices also differed in every kilo and in every type of menu. You can click this link for the menu and prices Munch Punch.com. By the way, we choose Shaylin II resto to prepare our seafood since this one is very close to the market and offers a good price for our meal.

We enjoyed our meal and the service they gave us was satisfactory service.  

Below is our menu and we indeed love it;

New Year 2016

Dear Lord Jesus,

As we approach the end of 2015, we pause to reflect on the journey we have traveled this year. We thank You for the gift of life and for every moment we have experienced—both the joyful and the challenging.

Thank You for the blessings that have filled our days, for the love of family and friends, and for the laughter and memories created. We cherish the opportunities that have come our way and the lessons learned through trials and tribulations.

In moments of sorrow, we seek Your comfort and healing. We remember those who have faced difficulties and loss this year, asking for Your peace to envelop them. Help us to be a source of support and kindness to those in need.

As we look forward to a new year, we ask for Your guidance. Grant us wisdom to make choices that reflect Your love and purpose. Inspire us to set intentions that promote compassion, understanding, and unity within our communities.

May we carry the lessons of 2015 into the new year, embracing both the challenges and the triumphs as part of our growth. Fill our hearts with hope as we step into 2016, ready to face whatever lies ahead with faith and courage.

Thank you for Your grace and for being our constant source of strength. May we continue to seek Your light in the days to come.

In Your Name, we pray.

Amen.

Mercury Drug 2016 Diary

I got my Mercury Drug Suki Diary yesterday with Jedo from their branch in Moonwalk Las Pinas.

Super love and like it!

I like the cover so much and it changes a lot most especially the content inside. It now has a lot more pages to write on. It also contains colorful tips expressed in cartoons.

Suki diaries improved a lot year after year after year and they nailed it this year. I'm giving them a whopping 10 stars for nice, colorful, and neatly pages on this diary.

Good Job! More power and keep on improving.

Happy Mommy

My Buging-ging arrived from school today and very excited in telling me that she got a 15/15 score on her Language quiz.

Her eyes sparkled while telling me about the news, I told her that I am so proud of her. 

She hugged and kissed me saying "I love you, mommy". I know you are proud of me.

Thank you dear Lord for such treasure, these little ones are indeed your blessings to me.

Seeing them every day grow shows your love and hope that you have given me. 

Your promise was everlasting and true. 

Help me dear Lord to be a better mom for these children- wonderful gift and priceless treasure that you have given me.
