Our first wedding anniversary -我爱你老婆

Today is my first wedding anniversary. 大笑  It has been a great year since that faith full day we wed.  We had a busy day getting all that we could done before I have to work again.  Today we got hair cuts.  See photo on this site.  Also Ma gave us a gift of wood. 讽刺  She thought it was our 5 anniversary I think. 失望
 
Tomorrow I have to work late. 悲伤  But have taken another day off on Friday while Wen is on Holidays from Class.  Last Friday was 9 Years in Local Government so next year I get my long service leave. 聚会
 
Saturday we had lunch with the 2 Hong Kong girls in my office.  I think I said too much.  I need to learn when to shut up and just listen.  But dim sim was good.  Sunday was a trip to Mum's for Robs birthday lunch.  Wasn't really great.  Food was ok but could have done with out the kids playing ball over the table.  I hope our kids learn manners and not to do that.生气
 
Just for my loving and caring wife on this day of days.  我好好好爱你老婆。你是我为一。红心红玫瑰红唇生日蛋糕礼品盒

NBA Draft Day

Today is the Draft day for the NBA.  Players who would like to play in the NBA get picked by the team in the draft.  This morning Yi was traded to New Jersey where I'm sure he will be more happier then in Milwaukie.  New Jersey in near New York so Yi should be pleased with the extra market coverage.  I wish him the best.

I've always liked draft day.  It's interesting to watch which team picks who to play for them.  Players who think they are worth more then they are get reality checks and it is always interesting to see a player everyone says in a great pick at that spot fail in the NBA.  It is really the most high pressure situation any of the non playing personal have all year.  You make the wrong pick.  People will remember you for it.

This NBA summer will be interesting to see what the Rockets do.  After another 1st round exit they have to move (trade) some players.  Or risk the same fate.  Here is the question.  Who will play in the second round first?  Yao or Yi?

Glandular fever - Infectious mononucleosis

Well by Saturday it will have been 3 weeks I've felt like crap.Sick  Last week spent 4 days in hospital for them to work out what was wrong with me.  No one will gave me any strait answers (not even the internet).  Just can't do anything for you go home and stay way from people.  This week has been better.  Still not great but not really bad either.  At lease I am catch up on my playstation.
 
My wife has been unbelieveable while I have been sick.  She is the best. Red heart  Thank you lao po.

Sickness becomes me

Today is Thursday and I have been sick almost bed ridden since Saturday. 生病 I was so pissed off.  We needed to do so much the Monday I had off but after I was so sick we did do the half of it.  That makes me feel worse.凋谢的玫瑰  I earned that day off and now I lost it.  I hate that and I really mean HATE that. 咬牙切齿
 
Work pissed me off last week saying I have to fix up someone elses problems at a time I should be only doing my work as it is only the most important thing I do every 3 years.  Well if it stuffs up I'm not going to fix it.  They can stop being such money hungry assholes.
 
I am sick and tired of hearing about Shenzhen and the earthquake.  That crap is now in my dreams.  They make you feel so bad watch Chinese TV.  While we are talking about Chinese TV.  Go back to regular shows dam it.  The last 3 days in China no one can watch any TV or use the internet (other then to chat).  The only shit up see or hear is about Shenzhen.  I know this sounds harsh and I do wish all the best for the people affected just....  Let the rest of us get on with our lives.
 
I'm tired and going to go ley down again.  Don't know how I'm suppose to work tomorrow.  Thanks Doc couldn't just give me the Friday as well.咬牙切齿

West Coast College of Tafe is the worst

Today my wife who goes to West Coast college of Tafe in the City was told she could no longer study there so they could get new students to do the Certificate IV in Spoken and Written English course.  Earlier this term she was told she wasn't allowed to catch up with the class she was put in because she wasn't enrolled in the earlier classes beofre she started that class she was told she could.  Now she has to leave the school with out the Cert 4 she need to get in to tafe/Uni.
 
West Coast College of TAFE is the worst if you are a new immigrant do not enroll.  Go to Central TAFE or somewhere else.  It is my opinion they are only after money and have no interest in teaching anyone.AngryAngryAngry

Will petrol (Fuel) pricing itself out of the automotive Industry?

Now days almost every week we the consumer are hit with higher fuel (petrol) prices.  I for one sold my old car a couple of years ago.  Luckly.  I reduced my car from a 6 cilinder to a 4 cilinder.  I went on to save more then half my fuel cost even with rasing oil cost in the first year.
 
Now days as fuel prices continue to rise we see more new electric cars being released.  I have seen there specs on some webpages.  Where there top speed is not much for the cheaper ones as time goes on that technology will get better and cheaper eventually replacing fuel cars.  With fuel (oil) prices rising to as they say to $2+ per L in Australia.  That's more the 3-4 time the value 2 years ago.  It would be more benefit to buy a full electric car no matter the cost of electricity or the inital base cost of the car.  Over time maybe even the first year you would benefit financially.  Why drive a fuel car and pay the old company the billions of dollars profits?  When you can drive a electric car a shove it up the oil companys asses?
 
Further to the people who say why not change over to the bio-diesel?  These fuels why good on the surface may actually be helpful if and only if they aren't being made at the expence of food crops.  From the latest reports all over the world since these fuels have become popular and used more mixed in with normal fuel the world food prices ahve drastically increased and now to the point where there is food shortages in many contries all over the world.  We need to find a balace between the 2.  This is not currently being met and bio diesel crops should be stopped till after food prices and levels and sustainable.  I say stop these diesel fuels and stop the killings.

Another weekend another loss

On Saturday we played basketball again and lost big. Something like 112 to 45. After hurting my knee 2 weeks ago it held up ok.  Most of the game it was all right but at times I could feel a little pain.  I couldn't jump too high but that didn't matter as the other team was full of young fit men who could run.  
Our team also only had 4 so that didn't help much but even with a 5th it would have made much difference.  They basically won with 60-70% of there points from fastbreaks.  We did alright with 45 considering how bad we shot.  Next week we won't be playing the best team so we should do better and should have more then 4 players.  Hopefully I have good news.

Like sands in the hour glass these are the days of our lives. :P

Ok those who know me know I'm not a huge fan of my work.  But here is the update as there is a bit going on.  Wheather it is good or bad is yet to be seen.
 
First of all my most major accomplishment of the last few weeks is I managed to get management to buy a new folding machine.  Now we already had one but it was loud and you still had to stuff envelope for 12 hours after you finish folding.  I can happy say I got them to agree to buy one that does the lot. Open-mouthed  Why am I so happy.  Over the last 6 years I've worked here I realised everytime we did a big mail out.  My back killed me for weeks after.  Why?  Because the stuffing hundreds to thousands of letters in envelopes requires me to look down at the desk all day hurting my neck and upper back.  No more back problems if I stay here long term. Party  Sorry I know I'm a bit excited about a folding machine.
 
Second the guy who sits next to me is leaving on June 13.  Yes Friday June 13.  They already advertised that job and had 10 people apply.  That means if they do it right they should have a new person here before the last one leaves.  First time since I've worked here.
 
Thirdly this week they had a new coffee Machine arrive. Coffee cup No one know how to use it but a few people look happer.  I don't drink coffee so I don't care too much about that.Disappointed
 
Today I got my biggest work load information that I get every 3 years.  It don't look good for Vacant land owners in the City of South Perth who's rates will sky rocket.  Just hope they don't blame me.  I didn't do it to you.  Get over it.
 
On a personal note since losing out first basketball game a few weeks back we lost again.  Seems I have lost it.  But will try regain it this week after missing last week with a knee injury.
 
Finally I have to say the speech our Preast gave on the weekend was great.  He really gave it to the Oprah Fans with a speech on self control over self fulfillment.  Loved it.  Good work Father Phil.

Not as good as I use to be

Now you all know I love my basketball.  Maybe too much. Sarcastic  This weekend our team lost for the first time in like 3 years.  This capped off by the 1 point 1 win last week while I sat on the bench as the rest of the team won.  I have to ask what happened?  Could the other teams have gotten that much better?  Or have I/we lost it?  We use to win by 20+ per game.
 
It's well know for any sports player to think of themself better then they actually are.  You hit one shot at the end of the game that high can be better then any drug.  But... and there it is the but...  It doen't mean anything when you play next week.  Maybe one day I'll be like the guy in the Bruce Springfield song Glory days talking about how good I was when.  By are we ever really ever that good?
 
I guess we will find out next week when we try again.  Maybe it was cobwebs from not playing or excercising for the last 3 months or maybe I'm getting old and can't play like I use too 2-3 years ago?  I played a second game right after that one but I was too tired to play.  I really shouldn't have stayed and played.
