Immigration Nation: The Secret History of Us on SBS One.

Interesting.

Now I know why there's so many Europeans living in Australia; they've been here for more than 50 years! Quoted from SBS's website of the second episode of this documentary; "The Second World War had far reaching effects on the history of the ‘Immigration Nation’. With no Asian migrants allowed and the pool of available Britons decreasing, Australia faced a crisis. Not only were there fears that Australia couldn’t defend itself, experts also believed the country would not grow economically without more people. So the nation’s first ever Immigration Minister, Arthur Calwell, made a momentous decision to bring in non-British European immigrants for the first time." I missed the first episode last week. Planning to watch it online someday. I was intrigued to watch the documentary after coming across the trailer

on TV. Go on! Watch the trailer. You know you wanna. ;-)

It gave a great insight on things Mr. Hubby and I thought couldn't have happened. And towards the end of the second episode, we also learned that Julia Gillard, Australia's current Prime Minister was originally from Wales. She was 4 years old when she came to Australia with her family and they were processed by an immigration officer that was interviewed in the second episode of Immigration Nation.

I am learning all the time! ;-)

Cheers!

A day too late!

Can't believe I missed the 11.11.11 day! Huhuhu... Well, we didn't feel like recharging our prepaid internet account hence no internet at home and I didn't make it to Uni yesterday. So, there goes an entry for 11.11.11. Haha! Anyways, hope everyone had a good day and I heard my cousin's wedding went well. Alhamdulillah.

This will be a quick entry. Just finish some work in the lab after some shopping at BigW and heading home soon. 

Whatcha looking at?! ;-)

Cheers!

PS: Aariz is now 7.4kg and 6.6cm! Woohoo! :-)

a birth and a wedding

A month? Really? I must be so busy! NOT! Hahaha! Well, I am quite busy but I do have some free time. Although, when I'm actually free, there was always something else more interesting for me to do than writing an entry on my blog; like sleeping, watch DVDs, read other people's blog or do nothing! Heh...

Well, since my last entry, my sister-in-law (Mr. Hubby's younger sister) gave birth to a gorgeous baby girl on the 14th of October. Nur Aryssa Zahra weighed at 3.78kg. Almost the same weight as Aariz when he was born! She's the cutest! What I noticed first and foremost; the eyebrows! We couldn't really see Aariz's eyebrows until recently and they are still no match for Zahra's. Can't wait to have a cuddle! Errr...it'll be a while though. Huhuhu...

My cousin's getting married in about 2 weeks and I'm going to miss it! NO!!! Huhuhu... I've been having dreams of my aunty, Aunty Mona, the groom's mother. More than once! No dreams of my cousin, the person that's getting married but had dreams of Aunty Mona with my mom, Aunty Mona with Tina and Nona (groom's sisters) and some other family members. Homesick? Maybe. Or I must really want to be home for the wedding. It's the first in their family and all of them are always around for my siblings and I when we got married. Nak balik! Hahaha! Oh well, I'm sure it's going to be great and best wishes to the bride and groom. 

Time's up! The lil boy needs me! Hehehe.. 

Cheers!
