Caroleen’s Treasures

We had a sumptuous dinner at Irene’s place. Donald grilled pork and Irene fixed shrimps in oyster sauce. Nom, nom, nom. It was unplanned dinner. Donald and I was talking earlier about how good it is to dine at their back yard because their place is by a cliff and the wind is so relaxing. I asked Irene if it is alright if we bring food there and she excitedly agreed with the idea. Donald was still grilling the pork when it started to drizzle so we ended up eating inside. But it was still fun and we even stayed until almost 11pm watching Malibu Shark Attack.

At home, while I was chatting with Irene in YM (yes we still have too many stuffs to talk about) Ella was showing flash cards to Eman about OPPOSITES. Like long and short, thick and thin etc. I hear her talk in a firm and loud voice, “Pakinggan mo ako Eman, kung hindi wala kang breakfast.” (Listen to me Eman or else you won’t have breakfast.) Umm. well it is past 12 midnight so it is indeed breakfast.

After a while, she was feeding Eman with Cerelac that I fixed earlier.

Ella: O, eto kain ka na para makinig ka ng maayos sa akin mamaya. Kapag di ka makinig, uulit-ulitin ko ito sa iyo palagi. (Here, you eat first so you will listen to me later. If you won’t listen, I will repeat it to you always.)
Me: Ganyan pala ‘yan nak? Kelangan pakainin muna para makining? (Is that what it should be? You need to feed him so he will listen?)
Ella: Opo, parang myna. (Yes, like a myna.)

So she fed her little brother and gave him water then they went back to their lesson. Irene and Richie has a myna bird and she probably learned from them to feed the bird first so it can easily be taught with new words. She is right, not only myna but kids as well need a full stomach to be able to easily comprehend  a lesson.

Anyhoo, I need to get myself into reading more about how to treat acne so I can write a post about it and publish it on my new blog. I want to add another blog or two to PayU2Blog so I will have more moolah for bills.
