[Un]Forgotten childhood treat: cotton candy

Saturday, February 7, 2009

Besides the “Kwentong Pinoy” that I try to post every now and then, I also thought of trying to post some of the childhood treats I remember from MY childhood days, not a few years ago [yeah right!!], which I bet all of you will be able to relate to. Some things that would light up my days when I was a kid. These could be small stuff, as you know how it was when we were kids! [I mean, we would get excited over bugs and steel buildings for goodness sake!] To start off, here’s something my officemate brought a few days ago [it has been years since I ate one!]:

For all we know, even before there was the “melts-in-your-mouth” M&Ms, the good old cotton candy was already there, which melts as soon as you place it in your mouth without you doing anything. I doubt anyone of us hadn’t heard [or tasted] cotton candy when we were kids. After all, they had this even in peryas, for 5 pesos each [yun nga lang, puro hangin].

Different colors, same sweetness! Still a treat to me today! Yummmm….

Remind me again why we’re doing this

It has been a year.

Contrary to what other people think, blogging is not as easy as getting jobs in Austin. And contrary to what nonbloggers think, although bloggers CAN write about anything, we DO NOT write about anything. Thinking about what to share to other people in the Internet is certainly not easy, not to mention the time anergy we spend for each post. Yet, there are many reasons why I choose to continue blogging. Top on my list, and the reason why I started the whole thing, is to be able to help and inspire other people even in a very small way. When people ask help regarding travel, I always reply with a smile on my face and my heart, because I know I have the opportunity to help someone. This is the reason I continue to blog up to this day.

It is also inspiring, then, to receive awards from co-bloggers. At least, it is one indication that you are doing something right and are on the right track. At least, all the hardwork [yes, it is hard work!] paid off.

This award is bestowed upon a fellow blogger whose blog’s content or design is, in the giver’s opinion is brilliant.*

I know it’s super late, but thanks kayni and garando. And if I may be honest, you two also deserve the award. And if I may be more honest, most on my blog roll will also get the award.

So let’s keep blogging and inspiring each other!

*With this award, the recipient should write 10 honest things about himself/herself…but I I'’ve done this a lot of times already. In the near future, when you are not sick and tired of knowing and discovering something about me anymore, I will post my list.
