Summary:
Paid parental leave proposal would slug all workersBy Sue Dunlevy
May 06, 2008 01:01am

Inquiry examines maternity leave proposals
One option will levy workers and employers
Position left vacant would be subsidised

What it means:

- Having children will entitle you to more benefits at the expense of single workers or workers would would not want to have kids in the aid of bearing the costs.
- Apparently not.

Unproductive in study

you know u're really old when u can't simply look at a book read it and absorb it..one paragraph takes me 10 x the speed to read it and i can't absorb it in. that's when i know 'm in real trouble.

kind of miss these right now.....

However, if i really were to go back.. i'd prob be $1000 poorer due to the hike in air prices and that i really need to start looking for places to stay in December 2008, probably moving down to the city.

Who knows, maybe i might be like this again:

instead of a big giant... as what i am right now.. *laughs*

I give up

- everything i say seems to be not important
- everything i do seems to be nonsensical
- everything i fail to do is simple things

most importantly,

you DON"T EVEN understand what i'm saying.

moral of the story: what's the point of being with you when you don't want to even listen to what i'm saying?

on Study leave ...yet again

Really productive this weekend on sleep i guess, as a result of the waking up @ 5.30am every morning and coming home @ 10pm every nite due to work and dinner and movie appointments. *laughs* yes yes.. thinking of pulling an allnighter tonight to at least get half of the first chpt done.

living here in brissy all by myself with my housemate for the last 4 mths makes me miss the times which i was staying with someone close even more. I'm not complaining of my housemate cause she's a gem, paying her rents on time and everything, however when i see mates who are staying together, such as my new colleage Jeremiah + gf (who is a darl), han +jess (she's perfect), ww + chillipadi (very sacrificial hubby), and many more..i get to appreciate the times which I was staying with him, the many times which he was there for me (esp. the picking me to/fro work, changing of light bulbs, cleaning up, having a shoulder to cry on when things don't go well, hugging @ the end of the day to tell me someone cares, etc)-> all of which I tend to take for granted a little. ....

but oh well, life is just so unexpected and just got to make the most out of it.still loving what i do here..and i think that's more impt, although like every girl pursues, an assurance token however that just comes with time doesn't it?

on an ending note, ching + wk is getting married! happy for them to finally be together.. i think..perhaps Cat and myself had a little involvement with the match making??? *laughs*
