A woman should not solely depend on a man financially if she get the skills to work.

Gold from BIBLE:

"...but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven,where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in an steal. For where your treasure is,there your heart will be also."(Matthew 6:20 NRSV)

  这图片是第一季第一集V因为show被媒体批评，在家里哭哭啼啼的时候，两位闺蜜为她开导。右边那个是波姬小丝，天那，居然还可以看到她。

我知道除了神外是无权裁断他人的生活的，但我还是要说我很欣赏Nico在职场上的敢说敢做还有她对女强人的观点：

比如在这集里Nico就开导V说：她很反对女人对她们事业的成功感到歉意，其实何必呢？都是她们的勤奋所应得的；

还有她在发布会上对她的男同事说：“如果一个女人表现出对一件重大生意的关注时，并不是因为她很情绪化，而是因为她在尽她所该尽的工作上职责。”

至于Nico的私生活，我不持一致观点，就不－加－以－评－论了。

这几天投了10多家，还没有一家有实际行动的。

找工作就像找老公，没什么可以急的。我的技能是已经在我身上的了，谁也偷不走。他们不来找我，我就自己找乐子呗！

Positive的人在哪都可以干一番事业。

那天看到一个台湾MM的博说了一句特经典的话：
“没工作人烦恼
有工作烦恼人
横批：有钱最好”

我大概也是属于这种人的，但是我不会乱花钱，有钱当然是要跟当家的商量着花了。

在报纸上看到这几则小短语，澳洲人也是挺幽默的，自己学着翻译一下：

Climb up but dig down.蹲得越低的跳得越高
THE only time you start at the top is when you dig a hole. -Krystyna Jones

Turn taken for the better.变化带来希望，流水不腐、户枢不蠹。
GARDENERS turn over a new leaf every day.- Brad Capes

A father and Son thing 有其父必有其子
BY the fime a man relaises that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he's wrong.

还是觉得中文比英语有趣多了，就是太久没写中文了，即使写了，也是打字。（最后一次写是去年给爸妈写信的时候了～）

电脑真的是让人脑减退吗？ 我还是很想很想去台湾学插画。

婆婆在我眼中，是一个很典型的现代女性，有自己独立的思想，争取独立的经济，喜欢体验新事物。她觉得人生就在于体验，她不后悔她做的每个选择。

老公的姥姥去世时，我们去医院陪婆婆，回想那个最后的时刻，婆婆边温柔地抚摸着已经没有感觉的姥姥的银发，边轻声唱着儿时姥姥对她唱的儿歌，那个情景我的拙笔无法再现，不过任何人（只要有颗跳动的心的）见了这个时刻，相信都会忍不住眼泪的。

但有一个心愿我是不能替婆婆按时完成了，记得去年年底探望婆婆时，婆婆那时很含蓄地拿那张穿着“My little Aussie”毛衣的小孩图片暗示我：“说你可能不喜欢我说，但我还是希望能织这件毛衣”。

我想，这个心愿可能没法帮婆婆实现了，跟婆婆说对不起。

Panda, relocated after China’s deadly earthquake, has twins

A panda who was relocated following China’s deadly earthquake in May gave birth to twin cubs today, a state news agency said.

Guo Guo was the first panda to give birth since the 7.9 magnitude quake rocked Sichuan province on May 12, killing nearly 70,000 people and leaving five million homeless, Xinhua News Agency reported.

One cub weighed 170 grams, Xinhua said. Guo Guo was cuddling the other cub and staffers at the Bifengxia Giant Panda Base were not able to weigh it. The report did not give the sex of the twins.

Twelve-year-old Guo Guo was moved to the Bifengxia panda centre after the quake caused heavy damage at the Wolong Nature Reserve, China’s main panda breeding centre where Guo Guo normally lives.

Wolong, tucked in the lush mountains of Sichuan province, was close to the epicentre of the earthquake. One panda at Wolong was killed and another remains missing.

Most of its 63 pandas had to be moved after the quake because of the threat of landslides and other hazards.

Some were taken to the Bifengxia Giant Panda Base about 120 km outside Sichuan’s provincial capital of Chengdu. Others were taken to another breeding centre in Chengdu, facilities in the Chinese capital of Beijing, the eastern province of Fujian and the southern province of Guangdong.

The Wolong reserve is at the heart of China’s effort to use captive breeding and artificial insemination to save the giant panda, which is revered as an unofficial national mascot.

Only about 1,600 pandas live in the wild, mostly in Sichuan. An additional 180 have been bred in captivity, many of them at Wolong, and scores have been loaned or given to zoos abroad, with the revenues helping fund conservation programs.

哈哈，这条来自北京的标题翻译成中文即是：地震幸免于难的熊猫产下双胞胎。

Booming China is the key to riding out global storm

6th July 2008, 11:15 WST

The world economy is facing its darkest days in almost 20 years due to a perfect storm of soaring oil and food prices, the global credit crunch and confidence-sapped American consumers.
  
The globe’s most important economy, the US, could be in recession, parts of Europe already are, house prices in Britain have just suffered their biggest decline since 1992 and companies such as Starbucks are laying off thousands of workers.
  
The only bright spots are emerging giants such as China, Brazil and Russia — and it is on their coat tails that Australia’s economic outlook for the coming year will ride.
  
Since the 2000-01 recession, the global economy has been growing at its fastest rate in recorded history, aided and abetted by those emerging nations as well as extremely low interest rates in rich nations.
  
It was those low interest rates, and the sub-prime mortgages associated with them, that was the starting point for the credit crunch that has so dominated headlines and policymakers’ time over the past year.
  
Now, the mess left over from the lax monetary policy and financial oversight is there for all to see.
  
This week, the Bank for International Settlements — effectively the reserve bank to the globe’s central banks — highlighted the problems facing the world. Reporting on the damage caused by the global credit crunch, which started hitting the world’s equity markets in June last year, the BIS bankers are very worried about what 2008-09 will produce.
  
“With a significant risk of recession in the US, compounded by sharply rising inflation in many countries, fears are building that the global economy might be at some kind of tipping point. These fears are not groundless,” it warned.
  
The coming 12 months are going to be overwhelmed globally by four competing issues; commodity prices (including oil and food), inflation and how central banks respond to that, the economic resilience of consumers in rich nations, and the growing economic power of consumers in developing countries.
  
The benefits of high commodity prices are there for every West Australian to see. The State economy is now bigger than New Zealand’s, GDP per capita is almost $15,000 higher than second placed NSW, median wealth has more than doubled and stands at a national high of almost $500,000, unemployment is at generational lows and businesses continue to scream for labour.
  
The increase in prices for commodities such as iron ore and coal, plus big lifts in production, are tipped to boost Australian GDP by at least 4 per cent this financial year — in dollar terms that is at least $45 billion.
  
But the price rises of another key commodity, oil, is what is dominating the minds everywhere.
  
A year ago, oil stood at $US68 a barrel. This week, it broke the $US145 a barrel mark, and pundits are predicting everything between $US100 and $US200 a barrel in the coming year.
  
The IMF this week estimated that the increase in oil has cost 59 of the poorest nations in the globe almost $US36 billion, or 2.2 per cent of their GDP. Higher food prices have cost the world’s poorest 33 nations about $US2.3 billion or 0.5 per cent of their already low annual GDP.
  
If oil prices click higher, analysts believe there is almost no chance America, Europe and Japan will avoid recession. If they recede towards the $US100 a barrel mark (as some pundits believe on the back of increased supply), then recession and inflation risks fall away.
  
Much depends on how central banks react to this confluence of high oil and food prices.
  
Norbert Walter, from Deutsche Bank Research, believes central banks will have to keep interest rates higher for longer to “kill” inflation. The low rates period that dominated the earlier part of this decade was a policy mistake that monetary policy setters will not repeat.
  
But as Australians remember the late 1980s and early 1990s, higher interest rates to kill inflation come at a high economic price.
  
CommSec chief equities economist Craig James put the chance of an Australian recession at about 40 per cent.

But he tempers that bleak outlook by also highlighting the one event that is likely to stave off that recession — the industrialisation of China.

“The world has never witnessed industrialisation and urbanisation of the scale of China,” he said.

This conflict between the old and the emerging is highlighted by the OECD’s forecasts for the coming year. It believes the US economy will grow just 1.2 per cent this year and 1.1 per cent in 2009. That appears optimistic. New figures show non-farm payrolls have now fallen for their sixth consecutive month in the US — an event that occurs only in American recessions.
  
Growth in Britain (1.8 per cent this year, 1.4 per cent in 2009), Japan (1.7 per cent and 1.5 per cent) and the euro area (2 per cent, 1.8 per cent) are all suggesting the world’s biggest economies will barely move in the coming 18 months.
  
But have a look at the emerging giants. China’s economic growth is expected to “moderate” from 10 per cent to 9.5 per cent, Brazil will slow to 4.8 per cent in 2008 and 4.5 per cent in 2009, while Russia’s economy is forecast to grow 7.5 per cent this year and 6.5 per cent next year. In other words, even as the biggest economies curl up in a ball, the emerging giants are marching on with barely a blip.
  
Back in the 2000-01 recession, China (and Australia, just) managed to avoid recession while the US did not.
  
But this time the scale of the problems is much bigger, the US is facing an even deeper slowdown, then there are the lingering issues of the subprime mortgage mess, and over the top are those expensive commodity prices.

虽然美国经济萧条，澳洲还是可以依靠中国撑上去。

后来听说最近她爸爸病了，是末期了，她妈妈需要大女儿的她做的精神支柱着。
弟妹又不是很靠得住，感觉24岁的她要承担的事很多的。 今天跟她聊着才发现原来她是她男朋友公司的行政主管兼销售部经理，小公司刚营作，一人是多职的。

她很喜欢狗，跟Kanren聊了很多狗经，说什么她的狗啃了她家的所有东西。

但是Mandy给我的感觉就像她的姓一样酷，我以为她不喜欢和别人搭话。谁知道，放学后，她就在车里叫我：“菲，想去买衣服就找我一起去逛吧。”我说，好的啊，我会发短讯给你的。后来到家了，发短讯给她，她很快就复了。呵呵，我就喜欢爽快的人。

今天的收获是拿到Mandy和Karen的名片，我想她们都不是随便给人的，都是职业女性啊。

这个24岁的澳洲女孩已经担当这么多的责任了，我24岁的时候还被人镇压着呢。

今天我的小福特在去邮局的时候，无论油门怎么踩，码表都上不去，还哆嗦了几下，吓我一身汗，好像是底气不足。不知道是不是天命到了呢？

主啊，请保佑我上完明天的课吧，明天就可以拿到我另一张文凭了，我都坚持到这断落了，小福特你可给我争气点噢。你已经是我们不可缺少的飞毛腿了，星期一就带你去做定点维修了）

和国内的死党互通现状：
我说：“你有没有白头发？我今天一下子发现了头顶两根白头发，如果合并前天发现的那根超长的，这星期发现的共有三根了。。。最近我是忙得一塌糊涂：
两星期前跟一个银行的客户经理发生过节；
上个星期我去送货的时候出了点小车祸－撞了一辆92年的Toyota的小屁屁，幸好有我车的第三方保险帮我顶着；
但我的生意还要经营着；同时为了拿几张文秘和会计的文凭要去上培训班和做好作业；
今天终于跟中介们沟通好下星期新贷款户口的过户。
下个星期要当会计帮老公准备交税的相关文件了。
很搞笑是吧？我现在觉得好像是身兼多职的公关人员了。虽然是这样，每天的饭菜还是要我做、衣服还是要我抱去洗，谁叫我赚的是无形财产呢？”

她说：“ 今天刚刚忙完，上午考完试，把所有的电脑课程考好了，都通过了。接下来的时间，我要整理资料，准备今年的职称评选。能够过就最好，不能我就不去搞了。 ....  现在可以做的是安心治疗。每天在深圳很轻松，就是早上去上市场买菜，买报纸，回来后把食物整理好，然后看报纸、喝茶。我暂时还是请假，也没有考虑要做什么工作，就是先过过家庭主妇的生活吧。有时候下午天气好，我就会去商场逛街。深圳是个商业都市，如果有钱真的挺好，身边没有家乡那么多陋习。”
