Whiney? No, Just Wishing. :)
When I came here, I was introduced to the complexity of home theatre system (for me that is) with VCR, set top box, DVD player attached to the box. Our tube is sort of like vintage, jurassic or of bygone era. (When MCJ read this, he'll say I'm a whinger - hehehe). I am not really complaining as though the box maybe of old model, it gives good picture and that's what important isn't it? But, having...
The Aus Open Bit
It's the last weekend of the Australian Open and one of the grandslams would be over. And it is a big night tonight, well for me that is, as Roger Federer is playing... ... against a Serbian seed 3, Novak Djokovic in the semi-final. I will be rooting for Roger for sure but if he will lost, I won't be...
Family Game
Jens have been the family joy when he was born, more so when he was able to smile, to interact properly, to roll-over, to crawl, to grab and eat or lick things, to eat solids, and so on. (You know I can blabber on and on about our Little Boy. LOLz)Anyway, as parents, we are always proud whatever milestones...
Talking of Jobs
Just recently, I was chatting to my ex-officemate/friend from the Philippines. We used to work in the same company and the same department before I left and apparently she left the company also. Now she's working as a consultant - the best job, well for some, that you can land on after working on a financial software (which includes financial reporting) for more than two years.I gather from her that,...

The Rise of an Aussie
A Little Aussie Battler as some call her, has become an Australian Number 1 in Women tennis. She's through to the fourth round - defeating Amelie Mauresmo, a former world number 1 last night. It was so exhilirating watching her and very dramatic when the match was over especially for her family.Like...

Something To Keep Me Busy
When we get excited of doing something or going to somewhere, we always prepare mentally. Maybe not all of us, but I am this kind. When I was working, I've figured out what will I wear for the entire week on Sundays. When I have upcoming events to attend to, my mind is seem like in panick mode almost all the time trying to think what will I wear, what will I do, etc. I don't worry that much but I...

New season for footies - rugby league, rugby union, soccer - for tennis - Kooyong, NSW International series, Australian Open - and what-have-yous.

Our Health Insurance
One of the things that we did right away after Jens and I got our medicare card, include us to MCJ's private health insurance. Jens had his medicare card ahead of me and when MCJ added him, it just cost us about less than 50% of the individual health insurance premium to become a family health insurance but when I was added, it cost us double of the already family health insurance premium. The figure...

Getting Intouch
I'd been a lousy, sloppy bug last holidays. Why? Because I never bother to send sms's, emails, ecards and what-have-you's to most of my friends overseas to greet them last Christmas and New Year, except though to my family and some online friends. It was so unlike me as sometimes I am thoughtful. Well,...

Glasses for the Family
Both MCJ and I wear glasses. I am short-sighted while he is otherwise. I reckon we complement each other, what do you think? If he needs his glasses and they're not handy, I would kid him to borrow mine and just put them away from his eyes, it might help. NOT!Recently, he had been complaining that his...

Creating Business
In our state here, most people are into business - small scale business. I think, it has something to do with the lifestyle because as we all know though running your own business isn't a piece of cake, it also has some incentives. Once the business is already established you can manage your own time, with equates to more time spend to the family, leisure, holidays, etc. We are in a sunshine state...

Big Mosquito: Another One Down
Yesterday, Jens had his BCG (Tuberculosis) vaccine. Normally, it isn't listed in the red book (baby's health book) as necessary vaccine for all babies. But since, I came from Asian country where according to them, TB is common, my Bub should have the shot so he has defence against the disease.Actually, we didn't have an idea about BCG. We went to Princess Alexandra hospital two months ago to have...

According to the news, Australia is one of the most obese country in the world. I haven't see much obese people yet, but that was according to study, surveys and what-have-yous.With this issue, come the influx of all sorts of diet (at some time during the day tv commercials were inundated by all forms...

Too Much A Risk
We had an elderly lady for a customer that has become a sort of like friend to us. I had tea with her one time at her house and had a conversation on how she keeps herself same. She does puzzles and I asked her, what else. She said, she's playing solitaire in the computer. I asked her why don't she have internet connection so she can play games other than solitaire. I gather that her son actually...
