Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

hi deebrown,
Yes, if he is staying in HK and obviously he like the culture. It is different from my case as my husband hate to be discriminate in HK and he tries to escape from that.

1 year maternity leave come with a cost. Each month you need to contribute 6%+ to that insurance. yes, it sound good but if you look back, you pay more than you get from there!

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

hi xother!
Tourism! That sounds fun! I love treaveling!! Do you love traveling? Is your husband in the same field?
Actually my major is music therapy (not music AND therapy). I don't really like to sing, but need to do it all the time. My major instrument is the piano. I play the piano to my son and let him play it sometimes. He loves to "play" it Talent? It's too early to tell~~
Musicians are generally more emotional and sensitive. Some musicians can be very romantic!However I would not like to have a musician as my husband

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 AKW,
Yes, my husband and me are in the same field, but he has a better job than me. He is working in Convention Centre while I am in travel agency. I think most people like travel but not many people can afford it. I like independent travel but for my husband, he has trouble on it. He won't accept to stay in YHA at all! If we are in amazing race, we will loose at the first round!

It sound interesting on your music therapy, what do you really do for patient? I assume you must be very good on piano and have you consider to teach piano for money?

What does your husband do and how you guys met as I believe he is not in the same field?

you mention you like travel, where have you been so far? If you are major in piano, I assume you may come from a middle/upper class as piano is an expensive habbit, right?

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

hi xother!
Your job should be pretty joyful as you always see people who are ready to travel and in a good mood! Music therapy is to use music as a tool to help people with special needs. It depends on the clients' needs, age, background and preference that we program specific music sessions for them. While psychologists uses words/conversation to help their patients, we use music. Yes, I used to teach the piano a lot in HK. I thought about doing it now, but my husband doesn't want strangers to come to our home when my son is still so young.

My husband is an attorney. While we were in school, we always studied at the same coffee shop. Then one day he came over and talked to me. That's how we started!

I have been to New Zealand, Australia, Phillippines, Thailand, Singapore, Japan, Korea, different cities in China, Mongolia, France, Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Greece, Spain, England, Canada...I know there are still a lot of places I have not been to, but now it's so hard to travel with a little one :-|

Piano was a pretty expensive hobby at that time, I'm sure my parents worked hard to pay for all my lessons! How about you? Did your parents pay for you to study in Australia?

Morning gals,

AKW,
Music Therapy!! What a wonderful profession you have. I love to sing. I was a lead singer in a cover band back 14 years ago when I was studying in UK. I did for one full year. Still wish I can be doing this for living....
Now I'm only a professional singer at home among my families & my colleagues.....

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

hi AKW,

just wonder have you finished your study in music therapy? Is that career only happen in western world? I never heard that profession and I am interested who really need it?
I am not teasing you but my husband is a stressful person and after he knows I am pregnant (we plan to have this one) he has all sorts of problems. Acid reflex, muscle pain and now spine problem. All these happen right after I am pregnant! I told him it is stressed related and ask him to go for psychologists to ask for advice, but he insist it is not. Do you have any advice for that?

If your husband is attonery, is he looking at everything with details? Or does he expect everything must be in order?

Wow, you really been to many places! Do you like independent travel? I am not working on traditional travel agent which face to face customer. I mainly deal with air ticket selling and all our business are based on email/phone, so cannot really feel the joy from them.

Yes, my parent pay for my school fee when I studied in Australia and without them, I wont meet my husband and my life will be totally different now. I dont think my character can find any Chinese man!

hi reginang,
Is it normal for small kids to like music and dance? I am assuming it has more meaning for music therapy?

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

hi xother!
Yes, I got my master's before I married my husband. Music therapy has been in the US for a long time, and is generally more popular in western countries like UK and Australia. However it is gaining its popularity in Asian countries like Japan Korea Taiwan and Hong Kong. The first music therapy center in HK was founded in 1990 by a guy who studied music therapy in the US. Initially music therapy is used widely on people with depression. Of course you can't expect to use music to treat physical illness/injury, but it can be used to help people with all kinds of emotional disorders (for example depression and anxiety), children with special needs (for example mental retardation), and elderly with Alzheimer's disease. It can also promote general wellness, manage stress and help express feelings........It will take a long time to thoroughly explain the profession, I hope you get a general idea here.

It does sound like your husband has some stress-related or anxiety problems. If he doesn't want to seek for professional help at this moment, you can try to help him. Try to find a babysitter to take care of your daughter so you two can enjoy a quiet and romantic day or even just an evening out together. His anxiety is probably related to the future life of having 2 kids, so try to help him see the big picture and tell him that you two will do fine to raise two kids. Or try to make him a bath with candles and music. These are just some suggestions, I'm sure you can think of a better way to sooth him as you know better what he likes and how he handles stress.

My husband is pretty cautious in general. He only pays attention to certain things in details, not everything.

Yup, I like independent travel. Just a backpack and a map, so much fun! So you can get cheap tickets for your family to travel!! That's cool~~ Do you go back to HK or India often?

Why can't you find chinese guys? Is your husband also your first boyfriend?

hi reginang,
I'm sorry to hear that Astha's current school doesn't provide music therapy. Does she like her new school? Does it provide other therapies?
How much does it cost to find private ones? If I were in HK, I would love to teach her!

Re: 精靈混血 BB 媽媽大集會 Part III

Hi AKW,
Thanks for your explaining and my guess is right. Just wonder what topic you chose for your thesis? Your son and husband must benefit a lot from you!

You know some people, like my husband, just stress for no reason. No matter how many times I explain to him that we can manage the second child, he just stress out and that why I like him to seek for professional advice. Did you watch "Monk" or "Soprano"? Both of the main actor seeks for pyschlogist. Yes, I agree those therapy mostly happen in western world and Asia tends to control our emotions.

I only visit India once in 1999 and never want to go back...it is such a backward country! Going back to HK...it is too much to do as I rather save the money for my 2 child.

Yes, my husband is my first boy friend and after almost 8 years of marriage, I still love him as much as before. You also marry "gwailo" and you should know there is something different to oriental guy! It is the way they treat us as a person with respect and caring!
