Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

xother,

Haha!!! You cant say i am reallly young,if you are talking about the age,yes iam !!only 21 .But don't know why i am a bit over mature!!!
I lived in Aus nearly 6 years.And of course I know the different between HK and overseas.Was thinking to come back to HK and settle down.But so many people tells me how good that you can stay in Aus.and my kids can have a better education,So,i dont think I will stay,but maybe for a short time to visit my family.
I will go back to Aus next month!!!But i will still miss HK so much ~~*

HI ChristiE媽 ,
I guess you must be very young. I am going to have our 8years anniversary next JAN!
Are you living in HK permantly or you just came for visit?
If you live overseas for long, then you will understand that our life is very different from HK which is full of entertainment.

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

hi ChristiE媽,
just wonder how your parent look at your marriage? Is your husband also as young as you?

I was an overseas student as well and the life is very different once you start working. I assume you never work or struggle for money!

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

HI AKW,
I assume you are living in US since you were very young and that why you can mix with people. My english is so poor and just barely enough to work and due to lack of social life, my friends are mainly my colleague. NO, I dont have many chinese friends here.

As we are not any experts, it is impossible to get hire in US, so Canada is our next goal. We may consider to move to States as the salary is higher but in the mean time, we need to get our citizenship first.

Life in Vancouver just peaceful. We are happy just to hangout in the park and see my daughter playing. Now she is older, we send her to swimming class, gymnastic class and Chinese class...getting more busy once she is older as she expect more outdoor activities.

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

xother,

Mum and dad asked me to think careful b4 marry,but i think if I found a right guy to marry,it's not a big deal about the age.My hubby is 8 years older than me.I dated a lot of guys b4 and no one can give me the feeling to marry them ~~
I did worked once but only when I was back to HK for holidays and you are right, I never struggle for money.So,I know I am really lucky.
Mum and Dad looked after me and now my hubby does it.And now I return it to my son,Matthew and the one in my tummy !!Haha~~
How about you?

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

hi ChristiE媽,
I dont really struggle when I was young, but after graudate, I think my parent has no responsible for me any more and after I married, my husband wants me to work from day1 we married as he doesnt like me to stay home.

I assume your husband is "gwailo" and just wonder how he manage the money? Does he give you the full access of his account or he gives you a certain amount each month? The reason I ask because I know quite a lot of western people are really calculated.

xother,
I agree that Gwailo are like this!!!My hubby said I have to go to work one day,but not at the moment.And becoz of him, I cant graudate my nursing when I was in uni,and we both agree that when i go back to school,get my degree then i will go to work.

My hubby is really good at manage the money,so, I dont have to worry about that. And becoz i am not good at it and if i have money,i will just spend it.So,he is the one did everything...like paying bills,put money away etc. And I will just ask him when i need money, and we go to grocrey together,so all i have to do is look after the kids and cook for him !
Do u doing everything like what i said? do u have to work???and how about your kids?

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

HI ChristiE媽,
How you go to work if you have 2 kids? Do you know how much he makes and will he question your spending? My neigbour has that problem. She never know how much he makes and they went shopping together, but since the kids is older, she bought something without him exist and he question about the spending. On the other hand, she hardly see the credit card bill as the husband bought expensive stuff without her knowing. Yes, he is responisble on paying all bills and he work at the bank, so he is very good on account as well.
for me, my husband and me has joined account. I can see how much he spend as well as him. He never question me as I will say it is my money, but I always joke with him that one day he will come home with door locked, all acccount clean up as we may escape from him and start our new life some where in the world.

As we both working, we share everything in terms of cooking, housework and playing with kids, but obviously I am the one who do most housework and cooking.

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

hi xother!
I got my undergrad in HK and came to the US for grad school, so I wasn't that young when I first came here! I guess I traveled a lot when I was young and made friends wherever I was.
I don't think your English is poor!! You're too humble! I thought there are so many hk people in Vancouver, do you not live close to them? Is there a Chinatown or something like that where all Chinese people hang out? Do you cook Chinese food or Indian food?
How do you get your US citizenship without being in the US?? Does your husband have any relatives here to file the immigration form for him?
Will you keep working after you have the second one? If not, how long is your maternity leave?

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

HI AKW,
Forgot to ask you if you are working or planning to work in the future? what is your major in school? Or what was your profession before?

Yes, Vancouver has lots of Chinese, I guess 40% of them. But as I said before, I dont feel comfortable if I leave my husband alone as we are just too busy to work and do the housework. Nor it is uncomfortable to bring someone to speak Cantonese in front of him. I am not sure if you have experience that in your mix marriage?

I cook Chinese food but my husband complains all the time that Chinese food has no sauce/taste! Now since I am pregnant, I hardly cook as I paid for my neigbour to cook for us, but my husband doesnt like her food, so he cook by himself. My neigbour is Chinese and her food is very similar to my cooking except she is better cook.

No, I dont have any relatives as well as my husband and that why we never thought to go for US at the first place. Either Australia or Canada, but I dont like Australia as people are racist there.

Yes, I will work as the expense is too high to have 2 kids and it is impossible for me not to work nowadays. I will have 1 year paid maternity leave and that can share with my husband, so I can get 9months while he get 3 months. Yes, it sound good but actually we paid that all. Each month they deduct like 6% of our salary to put in "employment insurance" and this is the place we got money from.

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

Hi xother!
I'm not working right now, but I will probably work or go back to school when my son is a little bit older. I studied music in HK and music education and therapy in the US. What did you study in Australia?
My husband doesn't mind listening to me and my family/friends chatting in Cantonese. He also doesn't mind if I speak Cantonese to my son when he's around, actually he asks me to speak to him in Cantonese more! Does your husband try to learn Cantonese/Mandarin? Especially during the time when he lived in HK?
If your husband complains about Chinese food, why don't you cook Indian food? Luckily, my husband rarely criticizes my cooking. He's pretty open to different types and styles of Chinese food.
Wow, 1 year paid maternity leave that can be shared with your husband?? That's amazing! Do you guys work for the same company? It must be a pretty good company

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

Hi girls!!

Vancouver has a advantage of the 1 year ML which can share with their hubby, very very good . All my friends in Vancouver kept telling me to go back and work for a while than have the second child....

xother,
My hubby does not compliant about us speaking Cantonese in front of him anymore. Only at the begining when we started dating. I kept telling him off if he wants to understand he should have learn Cantonese since he lives in HK. At the time he has been in HK over 8/9 years. Since than he starts trying to speak more and he can understand pretty much 70% of our conversation. Can't talk behind his back... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

xother,
Thinking to let my kids come to HK for kindergarten ONLY.Coz in Aus it's not much stuff that you can learn,only play and play,so i would like my kids learn more b4 they start their primary school in Aus.Then I might come back to finish my nursing or in Aus, but don't know what will happen!
One of my friend(Gwalio), he used to tell me that he never save money coz he might die one day,then those money he saved,he will not be able to spend !!!So wired.So,I thought all Gwalio are like this b4 I met my husband~
And we do have a joined account,I think when we open this account, i did put 200 dollars in it,and that's all i put ~~haha!! And now,if he uses internet banking,he will always tell me how much he save for us,and how much we spent over a week.
I do the same thing as you. I always say his money is mine,and my money is mine.So he has nothing.and I do tell him that i will come back to HK for good with kids and never go back....But of course he knows that's just a joke.
And i think i like the life that you are having,share everything...Sometimes I feel bad that i am not going out to make money to give us a better life!!

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

hi AKW,
I studied tourism while I was in Australia. It is interesting to know that you studied music and therapy? did you sing as well? How about your son, do you think he has some talent about music? I always has a perception that all music people are very romatic/artistic, is that true? How about your husband, is he related to music field?
Yes, at the begining of our marriage is always good, but we have been knowing each other for over 8 years. He doesnt mind me to speak Cantonese, but you can sense it. How you feel if he speaks the language that you dont understand? Yes, he said he learn quite a lot when he was in HK and he will tell me friend that "sick siu siu" when they ask his Cantonese.
I dont know how to cook Indian food as it is too complicated. I am not a home base person and I dont really enjoy cooking anyway. My husband wont openly criticise my cooking, but he will ask if he can eat bread in the middle of dinner. What does that mean?
In Canada, it is a rule to have 1 year maternity leave regardless. It is paid by the employment insurance that everyone contribute and now it is my turn to benefit from that.

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

hi ChristiE媽,
It is hard to say if it is good to send the kids to study kindergarden in HK. It is too much to read/write as that early childhood! You can see so many parent migrate to overseas in order to give better education while you are saying there is nothing to learn. It is really a dilemma! If I am a child, obviously I like just to sing and play in my early childhood, not to have dictation, testing and exam and writing on daily basis!

It is good to hear that he is saving money, but do keep an eye on it. As you know, gwailo are brought up the way not to save and I hope he can keep that habbit for long.

If he can make enough money to support the family, then there is no point to work unless you really looking to build your career. You should be glad that you have a chance to be a stay home mom and build up a good relationship with your child. [quote]
