I've always made it a point to teach my kids about life. One of the things that I say very often is "It does not matter what we have, what others have and life is not about material gains. We live with what we have happily...that's what's important". I make it a point, also, to tell them that whatever material stuff we have in life is always temporary.
They get my point.....I think.
I guess they do, really, because they tell me that it's OK that we cannot go for expensive holidays in Australia or Canada or the United States or that the Hong Kong Disneyland trip together is probably as good as it gets. Next would probably be Langkawi until I recover from shock...and that's more than a year ago! :-)
"It's OK that we don't live in a mansion, mom. I love this home as it is", says Jared. Joshua looks at me seriously and nods, "Yeah, mom. This is the perfect place to live in and you're the perfect mom. I like everything that we have now and don't need what others have", Josh adds with a look of pure determination.
"But mom?"
"Yes, dear?"
"Can we.....", Jared starts.
"Can we have a Nintendo Wii?", Joshua finishes for him with a cheeky glint shining in his eyes.
Bah!
But watching them play the game is really great! PLUS Nintendo is not only a game, sometimes, when you're in the middle of a conversation with a client, Nintendo can be a very good babysitter or something I call the shutter-upper. :-)
Space Sweeper the Korean Sci-Fi Blockbuster hits Netflix 2021 Image Source: KoreaTimes Let me come clean. The first thing I thought when I saw Song Joong Ki leading the lineup for this movie was ' Is this OK?' ' Hhhmmm.....what about, you know...his personal life', and as a fan of his previous personal work, I had the same doubt I had when he was casted in 'Descendants of the Sun'. Sorry, Joong Ki. 😳 But the concept of a sci-fi movie in the Korean film platter was enticing. The trailer didn't look half bad either. When it comes to space movies, Hollywood has always been the Big Guy. We expect Hollywood to deliver the big guns and explosions while Kdrama land is all mush, love, arm grabs, ice-cold kiss scenes, love triangles, and of late, time traveling. So, sci-fi? Interesting. Honestly, I went in with an empty mind which is not necessarily an open one. Ditched the reviews, writeups, Youtube reactions and everything else and hit the 'watch' butto

I bought one for my son's birthday last July and I think he couldn't stop laughing so much on his first go. My daughter complained of muscles ache the next day. It is for adults and kids alike.
By the way, Marsha, do get them to put the strap around their wrist. The danger comes when they lose grip of the handset and it flies hitting someone's face or television.
ya ya ya! i played damn good tennis but my arm ached for, like....three days or so! :-)
