Parents Teachers Meeting

Very True
This is where hubby and me nearly punched a teacher's face

It was parent teachers meeting today; I had requested to meet up with a couple of my little angel’s teachers. The first appointment was at 1605 hours, so hubby could not accompany me until after the second appointment. Chef Diva was also not able to come as she was requested to work late in preparation for the Thanksgiving dinner, so it was just me and my little angel in the beginning.

The input from her teachers was very positive and I am so proud of her.

Fight Against Racism


The two angels left, they were not interested in tagging along with hubby and me, to witness my craziness of following the demonstrators, who were demonstrating against racism in their parliment. I know it can be risky following these people, but my curiosity will always get the best of me.

Along the way, I befriended some locals (who spoke like 3 words of English) and a policeman on duty to understand what this demonstration was all about. All the main roads were closed, trams were not in operation till quite late in the night.

When we arrived home, we discovered that the two angels had to walk all the way home due to these reasons, but I had fun.

Some Doctor You Are!!!!!!

I was all dressed up to go and meet hubby, and then onward for my doctor appointment, when Chef Diva called requesting that I wait for her so that she can get the house keys from me.

The weather was good, not windy at all, but it took me more than 10 minutes to wait for the tram. Arrived at the designated meeting place and hubby was already there. We then proceeded to the bus stand, where we had to wait, wait and wait some more. I noticed that more people were coming to wait for the same bus, which finally arrived almost after 20 minutes.

We arrived at the Neurologist clinic on time, just to discover that he does not speak a single word of English, and that his English speaking secretary had left for the day, and that he looked scary, and that his clinic messy and smelling of cigarettes. I was glad for all these as it allowed us to run out of his clinic without a second thought.

We were wondering as we walked back to the bus stand, how can this man be recognized as a Neurologist, where does he get his qualification from, and how can he even be registered to practice. How?

I am not going to look for another Neurologist, instead I will just wait for the one recommended by my doctor to return from his vacation, I can wait albeit the constant pain, and my resistance to ignore the pain killer.

December 7, is the date……………………. Till then.

Brilliant Ad

Christkindlmarkt

When you have the right company, nothing else matters, not even the misty cold weather. It was the Christkindlmarkt fun.
