Hey Eleftheria, Noor Mansurah, Yan Ju Fang, etc. I am just so glad to get to know more about you. I would love to go to Greece and see the beautiful historic places there. I have lived all my life here in Texas in the same area. I am 64 years old of Creek Indian ancestry, married to my wonderful wife Rose (Cheyene Indian partly) for many years now. We have several wonderful children. I like to read, watch tv,and to grow flowers. It is starting spring now and I need to plant some of the seeds of the giant sunflowers that I bought a while back. I want to watch them bloom as I read your discussions.

hello rachel, this is such a great idea you've come up with. i'm new here, and so far, i'm enjoying the discussions here... I'm Judi, from Philippines and working as a technical support representative, sounds boring though but I enjoy it a lot because I get to learn new things everyday by talking to different people and trying to resolve their computer/internet issues. I like music too, and I also love to sing but I only sing in the bathroom..hehehe as I am too shy that others would here me sing.next....

Hello Rachel, My name is M.Fadli Tirta. Im from Indonesia. Since you were from Australia, im sure that many of Australian people have biased information about my country and the people. So, i think we could share information and thought among us. It will be no biased information due the goverments information policy or unobjective news. Im very sure that people around the globe dreams about happy life, no war, no poverty and no crime. I think communication and objectivity is some way we can build such world.

Hi Ronita, pleasure to meet your acquaintance. I love people that love to laugh, i love Canadians as they are very much like Aussies in that they have a very laid back attitude and don't take things to seriously. It still summer here and its ridiculously hot so i would trade you for the colder climate any time, i don't cope well in the heat.

Hi Rachael. I am Shashank from India. I am 28 and unmarried. I am project manager with an eLearning company in New Delhi. I am living my parents. I like music but in my native language i.e.hindi, watching hindi movies, orkuting and nowdays writing in myLot. I am amazed to know that in australia u people have so much diverse job profiles. I mean in india there are very few people with such a job profile. Anyways, i am enjoying my time with interacting people from different countries and with so distinctive profiles. This is a very nice discussion u hav started. Thats it from my side.

Well, I'm new to mylots, so I thought this would be a good place to introduce myself. My name is Chris, I am a 36 year old mother of 3. I am working, currently, as a Stay-At-Home-Mom for the last 5 years, and have loved every moment of it. (well, most moments anyway.) DH and I live in Eastern Iowa, USA and can't think of living anywhere else. There are lots of places we'd visit, however. I enjoy sewing, crafting, gardening, reading and just keeping busy. One thing I despise is housework. I refuse to be called a housewife. :) I'm looking forward to meeting people on this forum and having some grown-up discussions.
