Don't you just miss those good old times when you were just a kid - so carefree and unworried about the problems of the world and just enjoying every minute of your hassle-free life?
Just like these two kids at play who are having the time of their lives in a rural area untouched by modern civilization.

The boys looked like they have lots of fun and stressfree. Over here we pampered our children so much and our kids are laden with so much homework. I think kids should go out and have fun. Some parents do not want to lose out and have their kids enrol in many courses that are not necessary. I remembered when my sons were young, they only go for swimming lessons and chinese tutions. And the only time my sons get to play computer was during school holidays. They could play boardgames however. Am I a strict mother? lol
ReplyDeleteah yes! i missed the times when the only strict instruction of my lolo is to just let me play, rain or shine, and nobody should dare to contradict this. hehehe!
ReplyDeletemeron din akong pic of 3 boys playing. ang cute cute nila! i'll post it in my blog as soon as photoshop and i will become friends. we're not, you know. it is giving me a hard time. LOL!
I do enjoyed those carefree days like these boys are having. Just that those days here it was more like jumping into big canals and catching fishes ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment at my last blog entry....I did hang in there for friends but it is not fun being the 'punching bag' all the time ;(

ReplyDeleteDefinitely they will get into Olympics.. Its damn sure dude... meanwhile I voted for you, you really deserve it my friend.... Keep on rocking...
ReplyDeletei'm jealous. not because they are still kids. but because they know how to swim.. hehe
ReplyDeleteHindi naman ako ganito ka-carefree noon, meron man lang ako brief o shorts pag nagsiswimming :) hehehe
ReplyDeleteme nagsabi sa akin bawal daw kunan ang mga bata dito. baka mapagkamalan akong pedo. :-)
ReplyDeleteAng galing ng mga bata. Naalaa ko tuloy noon ng madalas din ako nakahubo kaya lang di sa ilog o beach kundi sa kalye lang hehehe.
ReplyDeletewe used to go to the rivers too and take a bath. fully-clothed of course!
ReplyDeleteI do miss the days when I was still a child. I was so carefree and there was nothing to worry but I guess we all have to grow up one day and the memories will be etched forever in our minds.
ReplyDelete;)
Bonita serie los colores son estupendos, las imagenes me recuerdan mi juventud cuando tambien era capaz de saltar al agua en los rios del pueblo.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo
LS: That looks like a lot of fun, I used to swim in a river as a kid and we had a rope swing over the water.
ReplyDeleteThey sure look like they are having fun! I am not sure I would have ever jumped from there even as a child!!! Have a good day as well.!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots. I voted for you.
ReplyDeleteJust great photos! Looks the boys had a fun time!
ReplyDeleteI will vote for your with pleasure!
Hi Lawstude, thanks for the visit! Your photos are briliant! I envy those kids, no cares in the world!
ReplyDeleteang ganda ang kuha nyo. sana po walang magre-react.
ReplyDeletevoted na po
It looks like fun but being a mother I'd worry that they were going to get hurt.
ReplyDeletei remember my childhood days parang ganito rin kasi laking probinsya ako...ang saya ko na pag payagan maligo sa ilog..heh
ReplyDeletethose kids are truly having fun. sarap maligo sa ilog.
ReplyDeleteabout your query in the poll and the not so normal votes that your co-nominees are receiving, i believe that they are using proxy servers so that they can have multiple votes for themselves. that is the main reason why they accumulate large votes for just a short time and just few or no votes on majority of the time. in short, they cheat bro kaya dapat mag sour-grape ka. hehehe ;-p
@ selerines - thanks dude. congrats for your country's olympic gold. we will still wait for one. thanks for voting.
ReplyDelete@ jericho - madali lang naman maglangoy dude basta di ka kakabahan.
ReplyDelete@ kegler - mga bata pa kasi sila eh lols. tsaka talagang rural yung area kaya ok lang sa kanila yun.
ReplyDelete@ r-yo - ang bata mo namang pedo. kaya mong ipagtanggol sarili mo nyan, hapunin mo sila panyero.
ReplyDelete@ vinzent - ha? ano ginagawa sa kalye ng nakahubo? ikaw siguro umiihi sa kanto. lols.
ReplyDelete@ random ramblings - syempre ako din nakashort pag naliligo sa public place. baka mabugbog ako pag naka birthday suit lang.
ReplyDelete@ kyels - i agree. and i just hope that everyone will have good and fond memories of their childhood.
ReplyDelete@ george - if i ahve my spanish righy, you are saying that the images brings back memories when you are also swimming in the river. (nosebleed na naman ako).
ReplyDeleteanyways, thanks for the comment and hope you have a great day.
@ fishing guy - itwas indeed fun, the kids had the time of their lives there, so carefree and uninhibited.
ReplyDelete@ neva - i think the portion of that river was quite deep but i heard that an american died while jumping there because he landed face first on a shallow part of the river.
ReplyDelete@ marie - two thanks. for the comment and the vote. ;)
ReplyDelete@ sonia a.m. - they surely had fun by the looks of it. thanks.
ReplyDelete@ gypsy - thank you. i miss those time too when i used to do the same thing when i was a kid.
ReplyDelete@ nanaybelen - salamat nanay. medyo malayo naman yung mga bata kaya sana wala magreact hehehe.
ReplyDelete@ dot - i think they are so used in doing it because they do it effortlessly.
ReplyDelete@ dakilang islander - wow. ako din noong bata pa nagpupunta ako sa lolo ko noon na may ilog sa likod ng bahay nila. marami ako masasayng ala-ala doon.
ReplyDelete@ uno - lols ganun pala yun. alam ko once a day per IP ang boto kasi eh. pero ok lang kasi madami naman ako boto tyaka boto talaga ng bloggers/readers yun. ok na sakin yun.
ReplyDeletesarap tlgang maging bata...
ReplyDeleteattorney, gawain mo din bang maligo sa ilog dati?=)
binoto ulit kita...pwede ba yun?
Looks like a local version of brokeback mountain. Sa dami ng pelikula no? napaghahalata tuloy na nanuod ako ng patago nun. But yeah, they are so carefree but they were not able to escape the lenses of your camera.....binayaran u ba ng talent fee yang mga yan?kkk
ReplyDeleteBy the way---I voted for you. good luck
its been a while since my last visit.. wuhoo!=D anyway, loved how you captured the moment! how i wish i could go back to those carefree days...-_-
ReplyDeletei used to be like that, but with shorts on frolicking in the water of Laguna de Bay, still swimable n years ago...btw, just voted for you. dami mo pala hahabulin dun :P
ReplyDeleteJust to say HELLO! Ex-links? Regarding this post, what can I say is that i had that experienced during my childhood. But just a reminder that posting naked children is an offence. Don't be offended but their decency at their age should be protected.

Being young was great - I think. I just don't know if I can remeber back that far - it was soooo long ago!!!!
ReplyDelete@ doc rio - yup naliligo din ako sa ilog dati. muntik na nga ako malunod eh. ngayun sa beach na ko naliligo.
ReplyDelete@ salingpusa - nope. naabutan ko lang sila nagswiswimming sa ilog and it reminded me of my childhood kaya kinunan ko sila camera. and nakakatuwa nga noong malaman nila na kinukuhanan ko sila ay lalo sila nagpasikat.
ReplyDelete@ dave - hey welcome back again. that's really my point in showing these pics - to really captured the fun of being kids and being carefree.
ReplyDelete@ tutubi - i think you can no longer swim in laguna de bay because of the trash there and it is really alarming how some of our rivers and lakes become polluted with the passing years.
ReplyDeletesalamat sa vote pero tinambakan na yata ako eh. ma-technique kalaban ko eh lols.
@ rolly - wow, napagalitan ang abogado hahaha. bro, i hope you could look past the nudity because that is not what this post is all about.
ReplyDelete@ jules - well, i bet your children or your grandchildren can relive those amazing kiddie memories. thanks for the visit.
ReplyDeletethese are fun action photos! these capture the spirit of being young and innocent, an uncomplicated life. i have similar childhood memories. love these shots.:D
ReplyDeletethis is what i love about the countryside... being carefree. swimming in the river is one of the things i missed doing since my high school. haha.
ReplyDeleteDi naman kita napagalitan atty. That was only my comment.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I added you up. You've got a wonderful blog. Keep it up.
the pics remind me of my childhood days. i would then spend hours swimming in the river, dive, and play "habulan" on land and in water. hehe. but i have my brief as i do those. hehe
