Extraordinary Measures

What would you do if two of your young children have fatal disease?

John Crowley (Brendan Fraser)left his career and risked his family's future to find
a cure for his children's life threatening disease.

Crowley teams up with a brilliant scientist Dr. Bob Stonehill (Harisson Ford), to form a bio-tech company focused on developing a life-saving drug not just for his children but for every child inflicted with Pompe disease.

Extraordinary Measures will be shown today, March 10...
Thanks to SM Cinema for the invite and to Ian ....

Johnsons Bedtime Discoveries

My colleague Dani was invited to an event sponsored by nuffnang, and she asked me if I want to go with her. At first I was hesitant coz the event is for "real" bloggers =)... I thought I shouldn't be there..but when she told me that it's ok to bring friends...yun... i got excited!

I'm single, i love kids but don't have plans to have my own.... I'm contented with just being a Tita to my nephews and niece. Actually, I started taking care of little kids when I was just 12. Every summer, I take care of my cousins...and every noon my Tita Bem would always tell us to go to sleep! Since I am the Ate, I have to make sure everyone will take a nap or else ako ang mapapagalitan! Of course we all hate our Tita back then, coz we didn't know the importance of taking a nap or the importance of sleep...all we know is 'hindi tatangkad' pag hindi nag sleep and no candies from Lolo.

Yun pala, there are other reasons why children should have enough good sleep.... so mommies, Titas, Ates and even Dads out there - watch this video! (pasensya na, hindi edited)

Thanks to Johnson & Johnson for the info and to Dani for inviting me~

Manila Zoo with Challe

One sunday morning we decided to bring Challe to Manila zoo...

when you enter, you'll see the elephant (not sure tho if this is still the same elephant i've seen when I was still a small kid). I'm not sure kung nakita ko lahat, pero parang small area nalang yung para sa monkeys and birds. Maganda na yung place, but when you go there, make sure you have enough money...not because of the entrance fee (which is P40 or less) but because of the photo op with the parrots, snakes, etc... mahal din. They should not charge that anymore (imagine P100/photo with the animal) to encourage more parents to bring their kids to the zoo.

But I have to say it's still a good place to have fun with your kids!!
