New Look Lae City

On a recent visit to Lae recently at the end of May this year 2012, after 5 years since my last visit, I've noticed that Lae has definitely changed in a big way. The pot holes of Lae city are now fast turning into concrete paths for vehicles to drive and people to walk on. A couple of shots below show the concrete roads of the new look Lae Town.

Planet Rock or The Liquid Inn building is now no more and Theodist and other buildings have taken residence along the Markham Road. The old Lae Airport now is a container yard as can be seen below also.

Eriku has also changed with Bar fences fencing the Huon Road on both sides and the new Raumai 18 building is pictured below as well.

You will have to visit Lae for yourself to see the new look Lae City.

2012, What a year

If I may stress it again, this year has received so much already. I personally have got a boulder thrown over my shoulders to add to the mix :( ....

I got alerted today that I will have to find some way in sourcing some funds to ensure that a child gets his education this year. I am proactive in my approach and thus all things coming my way I get myself prepared for beforehand; but this situation caught me by surprise, well not fully anyway, I was surely not prepared to shoulder the full cost. Fees nowadays are ever so high as compared to my days. To make things worse, the last day of registration is tomorrow, Saturday. What could I do or where could I go on a weekend to source some funds? Nowhere. And so there is nothing much that can be done until next week, and by then if and when funds do come available, an added penalty for late registration will have to be met also. That is why, I stress whenever I get the chance to, is to conduct oneself proactively. Planning is the key in all aspects of life. Get it into your system, all of you and things will become much easier and life will be more enjoyable, fun and worthwhile. As for me, I have faith that all will go well in the end. Funds will come available somewhere, somehow and a couple of months down the line, I will look back at this and just smile. In God, you can definitely trust. Through him, in him, all things are possible. All glory and honor to you, Lord.

Sydney Festival 2012 with DJ Norman Jay

What an afternoon it was yesterday in the City at Hyde Park where the Sydney Festival was held, DJ Norman Jay in his big red bus got the crowd dancing with his vibrant music beats. I could feel my heart pump to the beat and my body urging me to dance along, fortunately though, I had a camera with me to capture a glimpse of the show to share with you instead. if you're in Sydney and got nothing to do, do head on down and enjoy what the Festival has to offer.
