My Music Taste

Really? If you say so.  I can say I am conservative.  I don't embrace new music as most people do - very easy or rather not snobbish.  But I am.  I don't warm up to music until I have heard it for several times and actually sang to it, that is if I know the lyrics.  My taste borders on the music that I heard when I was growing up.  But this...

Gems, wealth, etc.

I remember last week, I didn't read any books on the train. I had a book in my bag, in fact, it is still there but I can't be bothered to read. Instead, I have been reading stuff over the net. I've been through different topics. I read somewhere about curiosity on submarine and I got curious myself. The topic that I was reading was so technical that it was enough for me to know that submarine works because of ballast tanks. They contain...

Music

Tonight, Mcj showed me how he is teaching the Tatapilla to learn about music by using his keyboard. The Tatapilla has a little bit of inclination to music as he likes guitars and to sing but we have not enrolled him in extra-curricular activity as such due to lack of time on our part. He is learning bits and pieces from his Dad and at the same time, Dad is expanding his knowledge on music. They do this after doing his homework (while others might...

You Are Sophisticated and Well Mannered You're the type of person who can sit all day entertaining guests with witty banter. You believe in presenting yourself in the best light possible. You like to be seen as classy. You give a first impression of being upper class and even a bit snooty. And you're the first to admit you're a little guilty of that. You are an armchair...

Travelling

I used to be an adventurous when it comes to travelling. I don’t really have planned itinerary. Just go with the flow. Catch public transport. Walk. Run. It was fun. Then I learned how to drive and own a car. Now, one of the most important things to plan is transportation wherever we go. And then, came along a lovely little boy. Everything revolves around him (I certainly hope, not for long). How do we get from A to B? How is he going to...

Forgetful?

My memory is not as when I was single. I can point out that I started to be forgetful after giving birth. I attribute it to having been through general anaesthetic. Plus, now our life is just extra busy and hectic. But mind you, forgetfulness can be caused by health problems like lack of vitamin b12, thyroid issue, menopause and alcohol intake. I reckon, our mind needs exercise - doing new stuff and try to be organised (note to self maybe...

Stroke

My brother-in-law suffered stroke almost two months ago. I don't have that much knowledge on this subject so I thought I might do some research to understand it - it's like hearning la gloria cubana to me (a bit foreign). He will have to undergo a CT Scan soon to determine the cause of his stroke. I was told, it was a mild stroke.
