Pouring Weekend!!

What a weekend I had... It was pouring cats and dogs and really the prospect of any outdoor activities were practically nil!!! Noteworthy events of the weekend: Mom, rain, rugby, rain, more rain, water cuts, rain!!! Mom is doing ok now. We are watching her very very closely... And I really mean closely... Whenever I wake up at night I creep into her room just to check on her... Believe me she has received a few frights coz of this... Nearly gave her a heart attack - she claims!! So now I have to really refrain myself. I...

7's Rugby

There are no words to describe my feelings right now... Fiji played a very good game but New Zealand were better. It was a sad sad day for everyone here when Fiji bowed out of the tournament after losing to New Zealand in the Semi's... I switched to movies as soon as score reached 14-0 in favor of N.Z. I just couldn't take the tension :(. But the players played well... The better team won... yeah ... yeah... yeah!!! whatever :( Link to the story: Fiji Games This just goes to show that no matter how fit the team players are......

HK 7's

One thing that Fiji stops for is rugby... By just saying that the people are rugby crazy is seriously understating the passion that each individual has for this game. Today marks the most eagerly awaited tournament of the year - the Hong Kong 7's Rugby. So from today till Sunday everyone who don't really have to be out earning a living will be glued to their TV sets watching the game. Fiji has a very impressive lineup and it should be interesting. I myself get so tensed up that I do not watch the finals if Fiji is playing......

Mom

Mommy dearest has been allergic to aspirin and penicillin most of her adult life. Her doctors may have changed but on every medical folder she has this written in indelible ink. Late last year one freaking new doc prescribed her low dosage aspirin based tabs to thin her blood. Despite the fact that mom has severe allergic reactions he bloody well gave her the tabs and she took it for two months. He definitely needs his head examined!!!I have no idea what was the reason for this meek compliance. She definitely gives us an earful...

Earthhour

There is alot of talk going on regarding Earthhour... Here is a a simple explanation: "What is Earth Hour? Earth Hour is one designated hour which numerous cities around the world have decided to recognize as an hour for energy conservation. For 1 hour, between 8-9pm on Saturday, March 30th, participating cities and countries are encouraging their residents to turn off all non-essential lights and electric devices.- Cities around the world will join together in literally turning off the lights for one hour to offer...

I love animals and I go absolutely gaa-gaa over the well fed, well groomed, cows and horsies.... I ooohhh and aaahhh every time I see them... which is every morning and afternoon... I see them on route to work, around work almost everywhere... ...

Bloody March!!!

The title reflects my mood I guess... This month has been really crappy.... ooohhh I feel like hitting something!!! Hopefully April will be better.... Frustrations throughout the month - feeling that sense of utter helplessness when someone close to you falls very sick.... Its like for every step forward that we are taking a dozen steps backwards. I'm feeling really low... Full of tension and stress... the sense of having achieved nothing either personally or professionally in my opinion- again more frustration Finally found...

Last Weekend.

I have a blurred recall of my last weekend. It went by so fast. Nothing really registered. I had made full plans for the 3 days and only managed to do maybe 10% of it.. Sigh... Mum has been commenting that the days are getting shorter now so I know that its not only me who can't fit everything in that 24hrs minus 8hrs for sleeping etc etc We (my family) went to Nadi Temple on Sunday.. yeah again!! I have sort of put it into our family...

New Template...

Some Changes on the Blog...

I have been trying to make a few changes to my blog. So there might be changes every time. Hopefully It'll get better. I added a site meter today. This gives me a traffic report though to be truthful I don't expect anyone else to read these... Its so jumbled... sigh!!! Anyways I have been looking around for changing the design aspects of the blog. I personally do not like things to be stagnant for long... I want to add daisies and tulips or maybe add swords and sabers!!! :) I love animals too... or maybe add books. See how...
