Never thought you are a police. A profession that need a lot of courage and discipline. By the way, if you do your job riding a bike, probably you'll need the egg yoke for your omelette.....Have a Happy New Year.

No Food Diet, A Recipe To Die For on 2007-12-30 02:34:00 |
|
Here in Australia, food is abundant and we are worry so much of food safety. The result is so much food are thrown away. Local apple and orange farmers leave their fruits rotten away because they can't sell them, the imported ones are cheaper.... Yet somewhere in the world people have nothing to eat at all. Life just so unfair.
Next time when I feel that I over-indulge in food, I will just picture those hungry children of Africa... Hopefully,it will shut my appetite.

Gardening in the Winter??? on 2007-12-27 18:57:46 |
|
My passion is also gardening. I live in Australia, where the weather is milder. Your blog is very good to give people ideas that it is still possible to do gardening even in winter time. Indoor gardening is very rewarding. By the way, I also have some cacti and many succulents. Some cactus have lovely flowers...My other passion is bonsai, if you would like to learn more, I had it written in one of my previous blogs. I'll be looking forward to read your next entry.

Your English is fine. I made some spelling and grammar mistakes too a lot of times, so don't worry about it. The more you read and write in English, the better it will be.
You are lucky there in China to be able to change jobs. Here in Australia, people are afraid to quit a job because it is not easy to find another one. It seems that jobs are plentiful there in China despite the very high population.Good luck with your very last job, hope you'll find what you are looking for.

Wow, the way you express yourself is really like a riddle. Ya, sayapun akan senang sekali kalau saya bisa mem-produseri hidup saya didunia ini, seperti disebuah film. Always in control and have a power to get rid of the things that I don't like. Namun seperti di film Truman Show, bisakah semua orang akan bahagia seperti Truman? Apalagi setelah dia tahu hidupnya hanyalah permainan belaka? Every one in our life is not for us to control but it is a two-way relationship, saling memberi dan menerima... Wah menarik sekali anda ini, a real deep thinker. Semoga saya mengartikan riddle anda dengan benar. Selamat malam, sekarang di Melbourne sini hampir jam 9 malam....

Lol, can't imagine some one mow snowy lawn. Many people in my neighbourhood are the opposite, they hate to mow their lawn so much, so they will wait for the grass to grow about 2 ft long before mowing it. Some covered their yard with concrete so they don't have to mow at all.....

Hello riddler, siapapun anda. Memang sering kali hidup ini begitu pedih dan sedihnya sehingga terasa tak tertahankan lagi. Namun kematian bukanlah jawabannya. Kalau anda percaya pada Tuhan, mintalah hidup karena Tuhanlah yang memastikan kematian jika saatnya tiba. Berdoalah supaya Tuhan membuka jalan sehingga anda melihat terang kembali.
Curahkan isi hatimu lagi di blog ini, saya akan senang sekali membacanya.

For those who are thinking about committing suicide, please don't do it. Help can be just a phone call away (See Jason's comment above). What you need is not death but profesional help dan support from family and friends.So talk to some one, do not keep it to yourself.

December 7, Pearl Harbor on 2007-12-07 13:20:11 |

The use of ATOMIC BOMB on Nagasaki and Hiroshima only did damage locally, at that time it stopped WW2. But the use of NUCLEAR BOMB in the future will damage the whole world. I think there is a big difference between the force of Atomic and Nuclear bomb.

Why pain is good on 2007-12-05 00:38:11 |
|
No, thank you very much. I don't want any type of pain. But I get what you mean, I heard that some people born without able to feel physical pain at all. It is scary because a child with this condition cannot see/feel any danger, and can hurt himself badly without knowing.

PET HATES on 2007-12-05 00:26:40 |

PET HATES on 2007-12-05 00:14:05 |
|
Some breeds of dogs are more susceptible to skin condition than the others. My dog had crusty, itchy skin once. I did't take him to a vet, but I just bought Flee Ban from the super market, the one that you squirt on the dog's neck. I couldn't see any flees, but I just tried it anyway. And... it worked. So until today, I always treat my dog with Flee Ban (or other similar brand), and he's never itchy scratchy anymore.....Do you believe that dogs or cats can suffer from diabetes? Those with diabetes are more prone to yeast infection, just like human. Well, I hope your dog will get better soon....

Now he's still living with us, but he's planning to move out in a year or so. I can't imagine later when he is gone, I bet I will miss him terribly too. But at the same time I think I'll be happy for him to have an independent life.
