Christmas!!

Christmas is just round the corner and this is my first time spending Christmas in Australia considering that I have been here for nearly 3 years now.

There is festive atmosphere everywhere I go in Melbourne. The decorations put up are really beautiful but I still think that the decorations in Malaysia's shopping center is way more extravagant...hehe...

here some pics... so enjoy

This is window display on Myers... This year's theme is "How Santa Really Work?" Showing above is the production department...

this is the storage department...the santa is so cute!!

The letters department where all the letters from the children are read

and of course...the transport department...which is very important!!!hehe....

The graffitti wall... Written on it is all the little kid's Christmas wishes...


on Federation Square is the Advent Calendar... every night @9pm...there will be a little performance to reveal things that represent Christmas...

Apart from Melbourne, the decorations in Sydney is pretty unique with
a Christmas tree being made out of chairs and the humongous tree in QVB that I only manage to get only a small part the tree.

it looks like a pile of old chairs to me...but I heard it's pretty when the lights are turn on at night...

women

Well...
I have disappeared long enough and I apologise for the lack of update.
If anyone is still visiting this long abandon blog, I have a troubled mind that needs to be cleared.

here is the problem...

It's nearly half a year since my boyfriend move back to sydney, meaning he is currently living with his parents and I have always thought that I get along with his mom. That I never really need to worry about her not liking me or something on that line.

But after this trip to sydney, something happen and it made me think otherwise. From what I gather, there may be more than one occasion that she complain about me to George.

To be honest, I am surprise. Because she seem to be courteous to me. Saying that she doesn't need my help when I offer. That goes to when I even insisted that I help her, she still says no.

Now she turns around and say that she doesn't like people that sits around and do nothing!!


I have to admit that I have given up offering her my help because everytime i did she made me look stupid so i stopped. Maybe I shouldn't have stop.

It seems like I can never assume what she is thinking.

It led me to think that women are such a complicated animal. It is never a simple yes or no , it is always tied with some kind of term and condition.
No wonder we ourselves never seem to understand fully what we want.


From this incident it makes me think that women are cunning and manipulative so that they always get their way. Well at this point there may be female reader would want to object my views strongly.
But I must say sometimes I would think of ways to get what I want. Does this make me manipulative and cunning?
