This Mother's Day

The Tatapilla has been asking me for days when is Mummy's Day. He seems to be excited about it. I asked him what's he going to do for me and replied with giving me stuff that they will make at school. Now that he understands things and days like this, I reckon Mummy Day would be different from the past 3 years. He seems to be keen to impress me. I'm not expecting mothers day gifts for mother...

Ranting

.. just this time, allow me to. Queenslanders have been complaining on the train fair here in SEQ. But if you've gone to NSW, one will think.. we're a little bit better off. Travelling in the Airport Link zone return (or two trips) costs $25. Yes, that's right. The entire zone is only less than 10 stations closer to each other. And one way or one trip is $15. It cost me that much for a paper...

Passport Renewal

My Philippine passport will expire in the middle of this year but because of our upcoming trip back home, I have to renew it. The process when I got the the consulate was a breeze - just almost an hour.

Flowers for the house

I love flowers and when I was single, being given flowers by a man (or a boy) rank highest to the quality of being romantic. Now that I am hitched, it's another story. I don't really want Mcj to spend heaps of money ordering flowers online - although that would be a very sweet idea. These days, I...

It Was Love

I thought, this video is very moving with the vivid characterisation. Yet, the music is the contrast and I suppose it is just apt. We are happy that Jesus has resurrected and is with us today. The priceless gift God has given us. No material thing can ever compare. The instance of buy gold bullion in bargain is a fleeting dot a million light years apart. [Chorus]It was love-What made Him bleed...

Crowd Drawer

How do you control a crowd as big as this? In some cases, one would use stanchions or other crowd control equipments. Well, in this event, security guards mere musts. These are eager fans who want to see their "idol" and if given the chance will grab every opportunity to touch her. I think the velvet...

My Favourite Month

...I still want to think up til now. See, when I was in the Philippines, April is the height of summer. The favourite month of the schoolies.. no school, summer activities, beach time. It's another story here in Oz. It's autumn, one of my favourite weathers.. not so hot, not so cold. And this year,...
