Andrea did hers so I thought what the heck I'll do mine too!!!!
Your Birthdate: June 17
Your birth on the 17th day of the month suggests that you are very lucky financially, because this date indicates a solid business sense. Although you are probably very honest and ethical, this birthday enables you to be shrewd and successful in the world of business and commercial enterprise. You have excellent organizational, managerial, and administrative capabilities enabling you to handle large projects and significant amounts of money with relative ease. You are ambitious and highly goal-oriented, although you may be better at starting projects than you are at finishing them. A sensitivity in your nature, often repressed below the surface of awareness, makes it hard to give or receive affection
If this is so then why am I not rich????!!!!!!!!
You Are 23 Years Old
Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.
YAHOO!!!! I love it!

Conor is demon child incorporated!
Yes it is official-Conor is demon child incorporated this week!! He has been throwing lots of tantrums, says 'no' ALL the time, and has been clingy as well! He is really pushing the boundaries lately-the terrible twos so they say!! Yikes!
He really is a little person now with a mind of his own, not a baby in any way at all! He is independent one moment and wanting mum the next as fits his age group! He loves daycare but lately he cries everyday when I leave which makes me feel absolutely awful about leaving him but he is always happily playing when I go to pick him up!
I am finally getting rid of all the baby stuff-high chair and change table and young baby toys are gone and the cot is going soon, it really drives home the fact that my youngest is growing up! I am NOT having any more babies though, I am not that sentimental!!!! Hehe! Conor has never really liked baby toys, he always liked his brother's toys more-it was a battle when he was tiny to keep him away from them! Now that he's older he can play with most of them and he loves it! He is car mad like his dad, every car he sees is a 'Toyota'!
Mika and Cody are looking forward to school going back next week, I am looking forward to my week off! YES! I will still have to study though but it will be nice to relax a little bit at least!

Whhhhhhere has this week gone?????
I'd like to know who took my week!! The time has just flown! It is Wednesday again already getting on time for another weekend!!!! AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway I have been rather busy this week part of it is because I am still trying to catch up from the weekend- I didn't get to do too much because I felt totally like shit! I had shocking killer sinus and could barely do anything-totally sucked! The poor kids didn't get to go anywhere but they were really great about it and behaved nicely for me all weekend! Even Conor seemed to understand that he had to be reasonably quiet.
The kids are still on holiday this week (Mika and Cody) so yesterday I took them to the movies-they decided that they'd rather see a movie (yesterday) than go to the museum even though there are dinosaurs and stuff!! We went and saw Shark boy and Lava girl and they just loved it! They were glued to the screen for the entire 93 minutes and raved about it all day! It was a 3D movie so the glasses were a real hit too. I thought it was a pretty good movie too for a kid's movie, very entertaining! The kids were pretending to be shark boy and lava girl all the rest of the day. I thought they'd like it but I was surprised (and pleased!) that they'd like it so much!
After the movie we went to another shopping centre to get the kids some more school shoes and found a Salvos shop that I'd never been in before. They had some great used books-fill a bag for $2 so Mika and I had a great time choosing books for a while! Cody just ran around being Shark boy!!!! Yikes!
This weekend I want to take the kids to the museum to see the dinosaur exhibit but not sure if it is open or not so will have to check. I have my exam on Saturday morning so will have to do that first though. I will take them to South Bank if the museum is closed-there are parks, artificial pool, pretend forest and other stuff so I think that should keep them amused! At least there are no parties again this weekend! There is one the first Saturday back after the holidays that Cody is going to.
I left Conor at daycare this morning throwing a hell tantrum-he was screaming and rolling around the floor and making a real spectical of himself. He was upset because he thought he'd dropped one of his toy cars in the car but I kept telling him that he had them all-which he did! Not even seeing his best friend at daycare or the mention of his much-liked playground equipment could stop the screaming he was doing! Guess they would have had to just wait it out, I feel bad for leaving them to do it though! I had no choice I was already running late for class!

yahooooooo!!!!!!!
Yahoooo!!!! I passed my ethics exam-got another one next week though-yuck! I do not enjoy it at all! After next week though no more teaching subjects! I am one very happppppppy camper or rather I will be after next week! I am doing a talk this afternoon in Australian History but I am pretty well prepared so I am not too worried!
At the moment I have sinus really bad and my head just seems to be constantly blocked up and aching, just feel like going back to bed! Thank goodness tomorrow is Saturday. There are no parties this weekend so we'll be able to do what we want! I am going to take the kids to the museum this weekend, they have some special dinosaur exhibits for the holidays and I think the kids will love it!

Thaaaaank goodness it's Monday!!
Yikes what a weekend we just had! On Saturday we ended up having not one but two parties that the kids had to go to! Cody got an invitation on Thursday that he had been given previously and had lost so I had to plan how to get the kids to two different parties at two locations at around about the same time! Mika's friend couldn't take her so I had to take Cody first, then Mika then back to wait for Cody's to finish then back to pick up Mika from hers! Luckily they weren't at exactly the same time!
Cody's party was a robot party, very imaginative planning from Cody's friend's dad and the kids just loved it! The invitation invited "robot 39 otherwise known as Cody" and when we got there there were signs and posters and the birthday boy and his siblings dressed up as robots, very cute! They had a game where they had to find the various robot parts and build a robot and then they all got certificates thanking them for their effort! They ate all the usual junk and took home party bags, they had a ball! Cody was very excited and happily telling me all about all the fun he had!
Mika's party was a bowling party, and Mika won the game! She obviously does not take after her mum-Ms Gutter Ball Queen!! Luckily all three of the terrors seem to take after their father in regards to sporting ability! Phew! Anyway, they had a game of bowling, ate hot dogs and lots of other crap, and got party bags and a token to play one of the amusement parlour games they had. The token was what they were all hanging out for! A very noisy party and the kids just seemed to run wild for the most part. Conor decided he'd had enough by the end of Mika's and threw a tantrum! Luckily no-one took any notice and he soon gave up and started smiling again!
Yesterday we went to my aunty's house for a sausage sizzle. She just grilled them rather than bar-b-quing them and we ate them with salad and bread and it was great. She also had some of her famous cornflake cookies on hand, yum!
Last night I heard from a friend of mine who I haven't heard from in a while so it was just wonderful to talk to him again! We have been friends for 17 years and even if we don't talk for 6 months we can still pick up where we left off! We usually email more than we talk on the phone.

I want to hide........
The world is a scary place right now, New Orleans decimated by a hurricane, typhoon 14 in Japan, severe drought here in Oz...the list goes on and on and on. First, great to see action finally in New Orleans pity it took so long for it to happen. Bush really has some explaining to do, along with Howard here-the media were rescuing people for pete's sake! Shocking to see such a powerful country crippled by a natural disaster, makes me wonder what would happen here in similar circumstances.
PETROL! AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! It is gone up from about 90+ cents/litre to $1.30 in the last couple of weeks! Yikes! And it is supposed to be going up even more-the government is supposed to be capping it at $1.50/litre. It is really starting to hurt and both people and businesses are suffering. We have started to use the car less already, doing everything in one trip if possible and public transport where possible. Luckily my car is small and economical on gas!
I have decided that I am going to change my degree program at uni-I really do not want to teach any more especially not high school students. I am going to focus on what I enjoy doing, language and linguistics, I figure why study for 4 years to do a job that I don't really like?? Changing the degree means that I will only have one more year to go instead of two! Yes!
Got an exam on Thursday, Japanese, a written one this time shouldn't be too bad. Looking forward to getting it over with though.
Conor's eyes were mucky again tonight hope it is not conjunctivitis-it is going around daycare,yuck. Nits are too worst luck! He is growing up so fast a real little boy now! Still likes his cuddles though!
Cody had a great time at the party last week, when I went to pick him up he was absolutely filthy, covered in dirt from head to toe! Obviously he had been busy. He said they played in the park, watched a clown, played lots of games and ate lots of food! Mika went to her friend's house and thought I got back there way too early! She is going again this weekend and she has a party to go to.

Yes!!!!!!!
I have done my presentation and it went ok, not too bad!! Hopefully I got ok marks for it!
It is getting rather warm here in Oz today it is 26degrees! Yikes! That is a few degrees higher than normal and doesn't bode well for summer, I hate disgustingly hot weather where you're sweating ALL the time! At least here at uni the buildings are all air-conditionded so I think I will hang out here a lot! My aunty has a swimming pool too so me and the kids will be there most weekends I think!
The kids are on holidays again soon which is a pain because their holidays don't coincide with mine! Mine start when theirs finishes (for a week). They will have to go to vacation care every day both weeks except for Tuesdays. I feel bad but there's not much I can do about it unfortunately! It will probably cost a bomb too. We are going to see Charlie and the chocolate factory on one of the Tuesdays, can't wait! I LOVE Johnny Depp and I think I might just enjoy it even more than the kids do........ Will try not to drool too much! The kids are looking forward to it too, they love the movies especially the snacks! We usually buy them at the supermarket before we go in even though you are not supposed to, you are supposed to send yourself bankrupt buying the riddiculously overpriced snacks at the cinema candybar! Not likely!

I am sooooo nervous!
Why you may ask???? Because in an hour's time I am giving my Japanese presentation!!!! I know it is only 7 minutes long (5 talk and 2 questions) but I am starting to get nervous, can't wait for it to be over! I am up first would you believe and that was my choice as I wanted to just get it over with! Then I can watch everyone else and relax and not be sitting there stressing out!
Wasn't sure if I'd get here at all as Conor woke up coughing again and his eyes were still a little bit mucky, they were fine after cleaning he didn't need any drops. I think it is because he has a very runny nose and he spreads it all over his face-disgusting I know but that is what babies are like!! He is talking so well now came out this morning saying "breakfast" instead of "breakky" or "dinner"!! My baby is so grown up now not a baby at all really of course anymore but will always be my "baby" due to the fact that he's the youngest!
Mika and Cody actually helped me this morning which prevented us from being late, yahoo!!!! Usually they muck around and play and fight and play and all the rest of it and we end up running late! They still had one fight but only a short one!! hehe!
Cody is looking forward to his friend's party tomorrow, Mika is going to a friend's house so she is pretty happy too!
