My goal

2 Replies

My mom always tells me to do my best while in school. She said that our future depends on the education that we can avail while we are young. I will follow my mom’s advice because I want to have a better future and I want a better life for my family. Mommy knows how I strive hard every school year to be included in the top 10 of my class. I really made her happy and proud. It is also her dream for me and my brother to study in the University of the Philippines. That would be my ultimate goal two years from now. I hope the school offers easy scholarships so I can avail the program. I heard that when one is under a scholarship program, there are certain standards to be met including a grade limit that should be maintained. In two years time, I will be a college student. I’m excited and a little bit nervous because I will be facing a totally different life. But with my parents’ guidance I’m sure I’ll be fine.

Appreciation from a real artist

5 Replies

Daddy was excited when he called up Mommy yesterday to say that one of his artist friends at the office saw my drawings here and here. Dad’s friend is Mr. Monnar D. Baldemor, the Art Director of Women’s Journal, a weekly magazine of the Journal Group of Publications. Tito Monars (that’s what they call him at the office) is a painter. He is the son of the internationally known artist Manuel D. Baldemor.

Mom and Dad feel proud that someone like Tito Monars appreciates my simple drawings. He told Dad that if I wish to pursue a career in painting or related art, I’m starting on the right path. He even told Dad to encourage me to draw our family portrait. I’m still thinking about it because it’s a bit difficult to draw several faces in a single drawing paper. Tito Monars also told Dad that he used to draw human faces, but switched to surreal or dreamlike arts to which he is known for.

 Father and Son

Just like his famous father, Tito Monars have held several exhibits in the past and have sold many of his artworks already.

 Family ties

I have tried brush and finger painting for a while, but I think I’m more comfortable to draw human faces. I drew inspiration from the magazines I’ve read and websites that I visit. But the sweet words or praises from older people like Tito Monars means a lot to me. I hope to be better in my drawings. I’m happy that Mom and Dad are proud of me.

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Charter. All opinions are 100% mine.

If I’m already working right now, I would buy Daddy the latest gadget in town. This is not to spoil him, but I think Daddy deserves the best in the world just because he’s the best dad for me. My brother and I can request anything from him for as long as he is capable of buying it for us. So when my time comes to reciprocate the good things that he did and will do for our family, I will not think twice of buying him the latest gadget in the market if only I can afford it.

While it is no longer Dad’s Day, Charter is still giving a special deal for Father’s Day where a total of 100 8GB iPod Touch are at stake. Mommy said she will try her luck on this (if she qualifies) and who knows she might get one of the 100 units up for grabs.

And be able to pay your bills through the iPod Touch. You can also get updates, fun extras, and facebook only deals on Charter’s Facebook page.

If you think you qualify to join the contest you should hurry now and don’t miss this techie gadget! While I can’t afford to buy my Dad anything close to this gadget, what I can do for now is to do my best in my studies. That’s the best Dad’s gift I can give him for now.
