my new fave read

gifts, my favorite things, books, collection

not too long ago mum came home with a huge bag filled with books + i was so excited to check them out. apart from the many books for grown-ups, there are also a number of great reads for me + i simply cannot wait to browse through them. my favorite from my new reads are these little board books of critters. it is a set of 4 books featuring these uber cute critters in different types of work. there is the cowboy, police, doctor, + a construction worker. these are really enjoyable read, in fact, i jumped into reading one as soon as i got home from school one time.

i really enjoy reading these little books as they fit my hands perfectly, they are very easy to read, + they have such cute illustrations! i have read them numerous times since they arrived. of course, i had to ask mum to read most of the book each time, but i am sure i will get to reading these awesome books on my own very soon.

thank you so much ninang niz for my new books!

have you seen the big hero 6 movie yet?

my favorite things, movies, Disney, cartoons

we finally got to watch disneys’ big hero 6 this week + i am glad we did! we all enjoyed the film + have fallen in love with baymax, he is such a cute character. we also love hiro + his brother, Tadashi’s friends who became his friends, too. i enoy hiro + baymax’s adventure, especially when hiro updated baymax’s program + filled it with awesome fighting skills, as well as the ability to fly. it will be totally cool to fly around town in the back of an awesome robot, right?

mum said big hero 6 was made by the same team that brought us frozen + my fave, wreck-it ralph, no wonder i enjoy this film, too! ^_^

here is the line-up of characters at the latest disney offering {with descriptions i got from wikipedia} + my faves are the main ones, baymax + hiro:

  • 1. hiro hamada ~ 14-year-old robotics prodigy who has already graduated high school. His older brother Tadashi inspires Hiro to gain admission to San Fransokyo’s Institute of Technology
  • 2. baymax ~  an inflatable robot built by Tadashi to serve as a healthcare companion
  • 3. fred ~ a laid-back comic-book fan who also plays the mascot at San Fransokyo Institute of Technology
  • 4. go go tamago ~ a tough, athletic, adrenaline junkie who is developing electromagnetic wheel axles at the institute
  • 5. wasabi ~ a smart, slightly neurotic, largely built neat-freak and an expert on laser cutting
  • 6. honey lemon ~ a quirky chemistry whiz
  • 7. professor robert callaghan/ yokai ~ the head of a robotics program at San Fransokyo Institute of Technology and Tadashi’s professor and mentor, who also turned out to be the big villain afterwards

i am sure you will like the film as much as i did. go catch it with mum + dad today, if you haven’t already! by the way, do check out mum’s big hero 6 movie review!
