Cars Overload

Paul and I went to Trinoma earlier today to meet his college friends, who happen to be my high school friends. Small world, I know. :) Anyway, after having lunch at Savory, we headed to Kidzone to check out some baby stuff. My eyes got wide upon entering one of the shops, Wish Barn. So much Cars stuff! I just love Cars, it's my favorite animated movie. There were so many Cars items available -- bed, pillows, mats, storage boxes, organizer drawers, magazine rack, rocking chair, drinking glass, hampers, etc... I was in Cars heaven! I kept myself from drooling. Hahaha

Actually, one of my dreams is to fill Miggy's room with Cars stuff. He likes it, too. Even when he was younger, around 2-3 months, he would smile when he sees Lighting McQueen (printed on his pillow or comforter).

Here are just some of the items I want to buy:

Bed set

Magazine rack and storage boxes

More Cars stuff: tumblers, clock, hamper, shower curtain, etc.

Rocking chair and drawer organizer (on the right)

If our plan of getting our own house pushes through next year, we will adorn Miggy's room with these uber cute stuff! *daydreams* ;)

Take it from Mr. Tex


"There's a lot more to racing than just winning."

Mr. Tex, Dinoco's big boss, uttered these words to Lightning McQueen in the movie Cars. Lightning had just lost the Piston Cup (with good reason) and so when Mr. Tex asked him if he wanted to be the new face of Dinoco, he was surprised because that opportunity was customarily offered to the champion.

Lightning goes, "But... I didn't win..." And then Mr. Tex replied with those nine words that would become one of my most favorite quotes.

I think I could apply that quote in my current situation. Ok, I'm losing, I know. That's why I don't want to continue anymore. Staying will just make it worse. I don't want to win this battle. I want to wave the white flag and move away, probably start a new battle somewhere else.


I want out.
