Garfield

If there’s a cartoon character that I can call my ultimate favorite, it would be none other than Garfield. If my memory serves me right, my so-called affection for him started when I was in elementary when an aunt gave us Garfield stuff toys. He’s really cute and he’s so unlike hello kitty which is really for “girly girls” (no offense to hello kitty fans). And then after some time, the Garfield cartoon series was shown in tv which resulted in me loving Garfield more! J In just a few episodes, he won me over through his sarcasm and witty punchlines. He stood out among the many cartoon characters because he isn’t perfectly nice (in fact quite the opposite), nor trying to be funny by acting dumb nor deliver the usual slapsticks commonly used in cartoons (e.g. Looney Tunes). I’d say that his imperfections made him lovable. And in some funny and sometimes embarrassing moments, I find myself relating to his sarcasm, pessimism, laziness and even gluttony for lasagna.

I think it’s obvious that Garfield isn’t exactly a role model for kids, nor do I think he was created for kids. In my p.o.v., hr somehow represents teenage angst and young adults’ frustration. But still, Garfield teaches us some life lessons if we just look closely and beyond his sarcastic remarks…

Some of Garfield’s Words of Wisdom:

“We all get heavier as we get older because there’s a lot more information in our heads. So I’m not fat, I’m just really intelligent and my head couldn’t hold anymore so it started filling up the rest of me! That’s my story and I’m sticking to it!”


“Diet is Die with a ‘t”

“The most active thing about me is my imagination!”

“If you want to look thinner, hang around people fatter than you. "

"Money is not everything. There‘s Mastercard & Visa."

"Your future depends on your dreams." So go to sleep.

"Hard work never kills anybody. But why take the risk?"

"The sooner we make a schedule, the faster we get behind."

Cheers, GARFIELD! :)

February

Question: What’s the reason why it took me a while to write my follow-up blog:
a. I can’t think of anything to write
b. Just plain lazy
c. Quite busy
d. None of the above

*Well, the answer my friend is ….(drum roll pls.) D. Yup, none of the above because as shameful as it is, the reason is that I’ve forgotten my username and password…hehehe. Kinda weird, but if you’ve read my first entry, and knowing the reason for this blogsite, it’s quite understandable.

Whim

Whim - n. 1. A sudden or capricious idea; a passing fancy. 2. Arbitrary thought or impulse. 3. My main reason for creating this blogsite thus the title of my first blog.I'm not sure what I'm getting myself into. I have created this blog out of whim and out of curiosity. I'm not planning to tell everyone or anyone (with the exception of my bestfriend) about my blogsite so it would probably be just the two of us who'll read my blogs. Which is really just fine as I'm rarely online anyways. Like I said, this is just a whim but who knows, maybe I'll learn to enjoy this as time passses by... if I'm not busy. I have no idea what will I be posting next or when but whoever is reading this, I hope you'll read my next one. I'm not promising anything interesting, just try to read it if you don't have anything else to do hehehe.

BTW, I've just reposted this blog from my first blogsite which I can't reopen due to forgotten password. ..hehehe, so I decided to just create a new one. :)

Oh well, how do I end this?...I'll probably do this the old fashion way...though rest assured there will be other blogs in the future...

The End.
