We celebrated Suzie's b-day at Tagore, a nice Indian restaurant in the Viaduct. We had so much food and enjoyed the beautiful ambiance of "fine dining" in one of Auckland's prime spots. On Monday is our 2 years and 2 months wedding anniversary and we are planning to celebrate at the Skytower...and oh we will also be celebrating the approval of my PR application....Its amazing how time just pass and 2 years is an accomplishment I would say and this day and age. Zharina, my sister, has finalised the wedding card which we will be sending to friends. Six weeks to go and we are off to Philippines for the Church wedding and to India to visit family and friends...we are so excited...

Da Vinci Controversy
Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code has generated a lot of controversy.Being a Catholic i personally feel that if one's faith is strong enough then there is no need to take heed of his views. Christianity has survived the test of time for ages & will continue doing so.After reading a few chapters of the book all i can say is "Father forgive him , for he knows not what he writes...!!

Exciting News
Rika has given birth to a beautiful baby girl, Evelina, who was born on Friday April 7. It is such an amazing thing and perhaps one day, Steve and I will also experience the joys and trials of parenthood. Most of my friends have their own little bundle of joy or joys, and it would be an interesting sight to have Steve as a father. Hats off to all mothers and fathers who try their very best for their children. Special mention to our mothers, Antoinette and Margiolina, who raised good children. It is a true reflection of how great parents they are. And soon, we hope to embark on the same path. May we be as wonderful as they are.
So bored
And so lonely while Steve is working...Just finished my Mills and Boon book, a nice one after so many boring books I have read of late. To be honest, I dont like reading so much of this stuff like I used to. Its a part of "knowing" what really happens in a lovestory, that when I read these novels now, I just think what nonsense. But I still enjoy them somedays, like today, when I have nothing much to do. I have been doing a lot of wedding plans for the past few months, that I there is little left to do but daydream of the big day....
Life of the Mascarenhas Family
Is about to change, as Steve will be working on Saturdays and Sundays for the next 3 months...the work timing is so bad, but the timing of the job is perfect as we will be off to Philippines and India in 3 months to get hitched, again!!!Yes, again. Being Catholics, we feel the need for the blessing of the Church, and it will also be a chance for my family to see us get married, because the first time(civil wedding) Steve's family and friends got to witness it. It would have been wonderful if everyone could be there to share the ceremony again, but its just not possible. So we are busy preparing everything. The funny thing is Steve has to get a visa for India but does not need one for the Philippines. I also need to get my visa application here done, so I'd better get into it now.
DON'T QUIT When things go wrong , as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all uphill, When the funds are low & the debts are high, And you want to smile , but you have to sigh When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest,if you must,but don't you quit Success is failure turned inside out- The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems so far; So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit- Its when things seem worst that YOU MUST NOT QUIT !!! Memorable Quoutes Jesus Christ: "Let tomorrow take care of tomorrow’s worries." Albert Einstein: "There are only two ways to live your life: One - as though nothing is a miracle, the Other - as though everything is a miracle."
