Mijn Schatje copied Totoro!

I thought the rabbit felt very Hayao Miyazaki. It had to be. I am a fan of his animated films as Spirited Away is one of my ultimate favourite movie. I've also known My Neighbor Totoro by heart and I knew that cute little creature on that illustration is Totoro.

How can this Mijn Schatje thought of getting away with stealing other's works while making money all on her own? I can't believe how she imagined that people wouldn't recognize other artists works. I'm sorry but I have to say that this is truly a pathetic cry for desperation - couldn't create my own, might as well do some short cut.

D' Family Park it is!

We want to celebrate Zaiid's 3rd birthday under the sun since it will be his first time to celebrate it outdoors. So we head out to hunt for that perfect venue. First on the list is D' Family Park located in Talamban. First look at the area and we all fell inlove. This is going to be perfect for a children's party.

The park offers a nature-friendly experience for everyone. Lying nearby is a one-hectare lagoon, two separate swimming pools for kids and grownups, a mini zoo (which made my little boy jump up and down to see monkeys for real!), a huge open field,  and a children's playground with slides, swings and tykes playstations. Awesomeness!

Thanks to Manona, she paid for the Pavilion hall where we can exclusively hold our party. Whoot! 4th of July here we come!
