Snoopy Goodness

-
When I was a kid, I used to read about the Peanuts Syndicate. I love reading about Charlie Brown, Lucy and other characters in the Syndicate.

However, much as i wanted to have anything to go with the Snoopy Addiction, I never had anything Snoopy given me or I bought, I thought they were much too expensive for me.

When I was in college, a close friend gave me Snoopy in a tuxedo-dress stuff toy on my birthday, it was a very handsome Snoopy.

And after that, nothing more came, until my kids were borne to me, and they had the love I had been missing all these years, the Snoopy Goodness.


the kids' Snoopy collection


Tabebs with her Snoopy Galore
all Snoopys in different costumes of different countries.


Ok, so that's it. My kids have them, and I guess I would just share the Snoopy Goodness with them. What makes you drool over when you were a kid? What things did you miss doing while very young? Do share!

Hello Sheng! Snoopy is great. Your daughter is so cute! She looks so happy to display her Snoopy collection! She is darling!
I use to like "Strawberry Shortcake" and her crew along with Garfield and Friends. I'm not sure if you know what either are but yes, loved them!!! I still do, I actually collect Strawberry Shortcakes! You know what? This is a fantastic post, I think I'll pull them out of storage and "play" with them today- it's been a long time since I got them out! Thank you, have a great weekend!

I love Barbie---those uber-expensive feminists' nightmare! The good thing is I learned to sew because Barbie's clothes are as expensive, if not more, as a child's. Hehehe, my husband gave our daughter one for her birthday last Tuesday, and when she was sleeping, I sneaked out the doll and styled her hair.

Your post reminded me of my old Snoopy stuff toy. I'd drag it everywhere with me! What else do I miss doing when I was young? Well, me, my brother and my cousins would get old newspaper and make toy guns and shurikens with them and chase it each other. I was very much the tomboy.

I used to like Snoopy so much during high school. Few years back I had a snoopy collection from Mc Donald's meals. I miss my little snoops back home. I hope they're still there when I'm back. =)

Warning! Allergic Reactions Appear

And what would that be? You would surely ask that. Last week, I found myself scratching my legs because they are so itchy. There's this blotches in it wherein the skin looks like it has been stung by a bee, or a mosquito bite. I scratched it and whoa, it became wider. It was all over my legs, mostly near below the knee part. I was aghast at what has become of my legs, and thinking it was allergy from something, I bought myself Celestamine for the allergy. Celestamine is an anti-allergic medicine. However, this med will surely keep you drowsy. A few hours after I had the pill, the itch and the blotches were gone, leaving my legs some map-kind of red leftover from my scratches. And so i was happy. The following day, I had been watching my diet and the foods I eat, thinking the allergy came from the santol I had(though I ate none of it again), the blotches were again visible in my legs. This time, it spread through my arms, and my hands. I felt very itchy that I could only cry my e...

Famous Cultural Landmark in Surallah, South Cotabato

We went to Lake Sebu last Saturday to celebrate my brother's 16th birthday, and while on our way to witness the majestic falls, we were already planning to drop by Surallah to check out their most famous cultural landmark, the round ball. I do not really know how it was named the Round Ball since it seems so redundant to be called as such but to question it, honestly, won't give you much intelligent answer as we also have round balls in Koronadal City and General Gantos City. Actually a rotunda, but ever since has been called the Round Ball. Unveiled last March 15, 2011, it’s towering, obelisk-like central piece of a 2-string lute points straight to heaven , silhouetted by the blue sky at more than 60 feet above the ground. Called he’galong by indigenous T’bolis, the slim lute seemingly grows from the core of a huge, endemic , bulb plant bohong, the elongated leaves of which spread out in radial fashion . ( via ) I have heard about this new landmark that Surallah boasts o...

The First Ever Traditional B'laan Wedding Ritual I Witnessed

Image
It was a beautiful Saturday morning when we visited Kinilis, in Polomolok. I was with Nanards and two visiting friends from Davao City, Emi, and her American husband, Joshua. They wanted to go see the kafe balos because it has been very famous now, and they wanted to invest into the business. Sir Fred mentioned there was a tribal wedding that very day so it was a fortunate day for us to witness something different, a customary tribal wedding rite. We went inside the house for they explained to us that the traditional B'laan wedding is being held inside the house of the bride where the couple has to sit on a mat and surrounded by relatives and witnesses. The bride was very beautiful that day, she was adorned with T'nalak inspired accessories, and her hair was placed with a beautiful headdress made of brass. Her hips was surrounded by a brass belt where hundreds of small bells were making noise each time she moves. And she was fully clothed in a colorful B'laan attire, and s...
