A Chris Christmas - story

 It was a grey December morning and the snow was falling all around the town. 12-year-old Chris woke up to this view and he felt excited.

- Mum, Dad, Tea! - he shouted cheerfully - It's today, it's today! The Christmas Eve is today!

 - He's pretty enthusiastic about what's going to happen today, isn't he? - said Tifa, as she looked at her son from across the kitchen.

- Yeah, right - replied Tea, letting out a big yawn. She did not get much sleep the previous night. 


- Alright, kids, we're visiting your grandmum, Jun, for the Christmas Eve dinner - announced Cloud. - Please, be on your absolute best behaviour. 


- We promise, dad - replied Danzel and Marlene. 

- But first, we need your help with preparing our house for tonight's celebration - said Tifa and the all kids got swiftly to work after breakfast. Before the clock struck noon, the place was spic-and-span clean.


When the evening came, the whole family arrived at Jun's place. They were welcomed by Duchess and her three kittens - Marie, who was the only female and looked a lot like her mother, Brelioz and Tolouse, the two boys. Tea couldn't help but pet all the kittens, while Chris was sitting there, gently smoking at Duchess. 

 Suddenly, the doorbell rang. It was Sherry, who wanted to join celebration. 

- Excuse me, - she said shyly - may I join your humble celebration, ma'am? - the girl added.

- Of course, you can - said Jun with a smile on her face. - Come in. 


After the dinner, it was time to open the presents. Everyone got a lot of amazing and beautiful gifts. But Chris was especially happy with what he received.

- Oh, "The Moomin Tales"! - Chris' eyes lit up with endearment - Wicked! Let's check this book out, shall we? - he offered to Sherry, who happily agreed. It was quite a funny and joyful read for both of them.


Later, they decided to play a video game. At first, it seemed that Sherry had the upper hand.

- Gee, Sherry, you're quite good at it - complimented Chris. 

- Thanks - Sherry coyly replied. And as the round was over, the girl has won. But Chris didn't feel bad. He congratulated his future girlfriend the victory and admitted they had a fun time together thus far.


The midnight was drawing near, and both kids watched TV, tired but happy. Then, Cloud came closer to his son and his sweetheart. 

- It's about time Sherry goes home - he announced. - I will drive her home to her parents soon - he added. 

- Okay, mister, I'm going to the Hall and getting ready to go home - Sherry replied. 

- But she will visit us on the New Year's Eve, won't she? - asked Chris with hope in his voice. 

- She will for sure - said Cloud to his son, flashing his biggest smile yet.

6 incredible books for girls of ALL AGES!

Obraz
  Hello everyone and hello children, I know it's been a while since I have last written a proper post here and now, I'm fully back. With a surprise! This one is for all of you who love reading books, but it can also be seen as kind of an encouragement to read, especially for the little ones and youngsters. Anyhow, here are my 5 choices for amazing pieces of literature written with young ladies in mind (that aren't about glitter princesses, fashion models or rainbow unicorns;  NOT   that I've got anything against those, but some variety would be neat :)).  With that out of the way, let's begin. Oh, and the books are in a completely random order, this ISN'T a top 6 books, just a list of reads I find worth laying your eyes upon, so, no title is really "above" or "beneath" the other. ;)  6. Lady and the Tramp  - Step Into Reading (Disney)  This book follows the same story as its classic Disney film namesake. As the title suggests, it's a tale

'Auto-B-Good' - mini review

Obraz
BASIC INFO Country: the USA Year(s): 2005-2006 Network: Smile of a Child Runtime: 11 minutes Number of episodes: 63 (2 seasons) Directed by: Handen Jetmall & several others  Suitable for ages: 5+  REVIEWER'S RATING  Animation: 6/10  Sound design: 8/10 Characters: 7/10  Writing: 7/10 OVERALL: 7/10 FINAL THOUGHTS: The world of animation is no stranger to films and TV series featuring antropomorphic (showing human traits) automobiles or other vehicles, with Pixar's Cars , Hasbro's The Adventures of Chuck & Friends and even the British stop-motion cartoon, Roary the Racing Car , being just some examples I remember from my childhood.  With that said, how does Auto-B-Good , a cartoon created for the TV network Smile (formerly known as Smile of a Child) fare in comparison to these creations? Well... There's actually a lot to enjoy here. The stories, while pretty simple, are excuted in an interesting and cute way children and parents alike can understand and relate to.

I'd just like to wish a dear friend of mine, O., a happy birthday. This review is sort of a gift from me to him. Again, happy birthday, my friend, I hope this special is filled with joy for you, even if your mood isn't the greatest. :)  FINAL THOUGHTS:  Transformers: Animated ,   to me, is one of the best Transformers shows to be made to date, rivaled only by the likes of Prime (that's not to say I don't enjoy some of the other  Transformers shows, like Rescue Bots ,  EarthSpark  or  Cyberverse , quite the opposite!). Okay, let's get down to actually explaining what makes this show so good.  Surorisingly enough, what makes Animated work so much is... the way t
