Googly Gooeys Good Days Versus Bad Days On Good Days: "Oooh! Let me post about all the happy things in life!" On Bad Days: "People posting about happy stuff? Hmp. They're all so annoying."

Hello Everyone!  :)
We have a guest writer :D My fellow washi tape, calligraphy, watercolor & camera-loving friend Aina Rosales has been giving me tips on how I can possibly improve my writing skills.  So, for today, I’ve invited her to share with us her thoughts about this cartoon ;)

——————————

Remember when you’re in kindergarten and you used to sing the kiddy ditty that goes “when you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands!”? Then you go and have fun, change the action to “stomp your feet”, then repeat the whole song until you can’t think of any other ways to fully express your childish glee? Well, if you remember doing that then, you, my friend, are old…like me!   Joking aside, we really don’t sing about our happiness nowadays because it’s easier to just post about it on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram (not to mention less embarrassing too!), to the point that you have posted about your good vibes (5 seconds ago), your I’m-so-happy face (4 seconds ago), and your reason for being happy (3 seconds ago). Although the idea is to “share” about what made you giddy or delighted on a supercalifragalisticexpialidocious day, have you ever thought about the grouchy monsters lurking around your social media network? These grouchy monsters are having a monstrously bad day that they would rather rain on your parade than bask in your sunshine, say, making a scathing or sarcastic comment on your post.

So for today, which one of you is the Giddy Tipsy or the Grouchy Tipsy? (background music: when you’re happy and you know it, you make a tweet!)

Aina also writes & shoots for When In Manila :) You may check out her posts here, here, here & here :) Check out her blog, Tweet Aina & follow her on Instagram :D

If you’ve been reading the blog this past couple of weeks, you might already know that we’re joining the Summer Komikon at the Bayanihan Center in Pasig City tomorrow!  It’s our first time to ever join a comic convention!  So when we found out that we were included in Spot.ph’s 10 Things to See at Summer Komikon 2013 , we were thrilled! :)   We made it to their list for the second time this year and it’s so surreal. :O

So, from the bottom of our hearts (and tummies), thanks again to Mark Navarro of Spot.ph for this feature <3  Check out who else made it to the list by reading the full article here. ;D

 

 

Googly gooeys Lost & Found "Hey, have you seen my orange bag?" "Oh. The one you used the other day?" "Yes, where is it?" "The one with the black strap?" "Yes! Yes!" "Your favorite bag" "Exactly! You know where it is?" "Well...Hmm..." "I have no idea."

Ponggo’s favorite color is orange.   He loves it so much that he owns 2 orange collared shirts and 1 orange T-shirt aside from his orange Googly Tee. He also has an orange mailman bag and it has made a few cameos in the past. ;)   Our house is also dominantly orange &
weathered wooden cabinet (which was supposed to be originally mine…Ahem).   I was supposed to buy a TWG tea canister but he insisted to by the first one and decided that the first one should be….guess what?

Seafoam Green!  Just kidding.  Orange, of course.

Anyway, since we have a small space, we always take turns tidying it up.  (Although it never really gets really tidy).  When I clean the house, I just put things back where they came from or where I think they should be.  However, during cleaning time, I zone out & go into auto-pilot mode.  I end up not remembering where I’ve placed each tiny thing.  This annoys Ponggo so much.  So, as a solution, these days, I just put his pile of mess in one corner of the house so that he has no one to blame when something is lost.  ;)

XOXO,

Tipsy❤

P.S. 3 days ‘til Summer Komikon 2013. I’m just happy that we were able to pack everything for this Saturday. (That is unless I get OC with the last minute details of the booth’s appearance).  As much as I’d like to cram, I don’t really want us to lack sleep that day or else we will appear zombie-ish to the Komikon goers. Hehehe.  We’ve just prepared Easter colored Googly Business Cards, the pins, shirts and plushies are ready! :) The Tipsy & Ponggo standies are already in the trunk! Special thanks for my sister @sitraxis and my mom’s house help who is celebrating her birthday today :D Hehe.

Ponggo & I were lucky to have had a sneak peek of what they’ll be offering at this year’s Best Food Forward (BFF)!   Best Food Forward is a huuuuuge food fair and yes, if you’re allergic to this summer’s annoying heat, it’s housed in a fully airconditioned NBC Tent ;) Last year, we were also at the event and I kept on ordering Jam’s Food Tapa long after Best Food Forward was over.

I know you guys will definitely be overwhelmed on that day with so many choices so we’ve rounded up some of our favourites :)
