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.

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!

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 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.

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.

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![]()
