Postcard from the Down Under Land

I have exchanged postcard with Alex from Australia. He is from Tasmania. He sent me a scenery of the city view of Hobart. Hobart is the biggest city of Tasmania, Australia.
 
I travelled to Tasmania in Year 2000, but I only visited the second largest city of Tasmania, i.e. Launceston. I did not go to Hobart before. Thus, when I received the postcard of Hobart, I was very glad for it.
 
In the postcard, Alex told me that the tower in the foreground is Wrest Point Casino and it was Australia's first legal casino which was opening in Year 1973. Overall, it is a beautiful postcard. I wish that I could visit to Hobart someday.
 
Thank you Alex for the beautiful postcard! :)

My First Estonia Postcard

Janne sent me the Estonia postcard. In the postcard, she written that the in the old town of Tallinn is in UNESCO since year 1997. It is really beautiful. This makes me very curious about Estonia. Frankly speaking, I do not know about the country Estonia until I started to swap postcards with the people around the world. Thus, I wish that I could travel to Estonia some day.
 
Anyway, thank you Janne for sending the Estonian postcard to me. :)

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2


Finally the finale of the movie of “Twilight” series has started showing on 22/11/2012. I bet all the fans of “Twilight” series must have been dying for it. No doubt, I am one of the fans for the finale.
The story of the finale is that Bella is enjoying her new life and new powers, after the birth of their daughter, Renesmee. Soon, however, their family bliss is threatened again, by a new menace. Vampire Irina believes a child like Renesmee could challenge the power and existence of the Volturi. As Irina rallies the Volturi to destroy this potential threat, Bella and the Cullens - together with any allies they can assemble - are preparing to fight a crucial, ultimate battle, to protect their family.

OK, let us take some sneak peek of “The Twilight Saga : Breaking Down – Part 2” below.










 















 
Gosh, the actor, Robert Pattinson is so good-looking. I mean he is COOL! :P I like him so much. I also like the actress, Kristen Stewart and also the little actress, Mackenzie Foy. She is so talented.
Well, I am going to catch this movie soon. I know that it is the happy ending of the story as I have read the novel series. I am still looking forward to it. Wish that I would enjoy this finale! J

21.12.2012 - End of the World?!

In less than a month from today, it would be 21.12.2012. Would that day be really the end of the world as predicted?! Or is it just a normal day for us?!
 
21.12.2012 is the date that regarded as the end-date of a 5,125-year-long cycle in the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar. Thus it marks the end of the world or a similar catastrophe. Some people have made the preparations for it. What preparations, I don't know.
 
However, for me, I wish that it would not the end of the world on 21.12.2012. But I know that it would a change in the world. Maybe the climate, the people? I am not sure!
 
Anyway, whether 21.12.2012 would be the end of the world, I think all of us should live happily and good to our family and friends. Make sure we do not do something bad to people or our Mother Earth.
 
Thus, I am looking forward to the date 21.12.2012!!! How about you?!

RIP, Grandma!

I was shocked to hear the sad news about my grandmother yesterday afternoon. My cousin sister called us to inform the sad news that my grandmother had passed away in the morning. It was a sudden matter.
 
It was been told that my grandmother was eating her breakfast who was feeding by the maid and suddenly out of breath and then gone. According to my aunt, my granny did not suffer when she gone. Thus, it was a relieved.
 
My granny was having difficulty in walking in the old days, but she still could talk, listen and see well although she was age 98. She was just celebrated her birthday few days ago. She was dead due to old age then.
 
My granny had many grandchildren and great grandchildren. Sometimes she could not recall the names of them, but when I met her, she could call out my name. Guess my look is always the same, thus she could recognise me. :P
 
Anyway, since my granny is not around now, I would like to tell her "RIP, Grandma! You'll be missed by your family!"
