I seem to be happier when the Ashes Test Cricket is on. Ashes Test Cricket is between Australia & England. So far two tests have being played. The third test is on this coming Friday. I have being watched much as possible on television from my home in Sydney, Australia. If not watching TV, then keeping posted on my smartphone. Either reading Twitter feeds or using the smartphone browser. It is a good distraction for me. It does signify the Australian summer. I like watching cricket but hated playing cricket at school. I was a hopeless cricket player. I could not bowl, bat & had butter fingers for fielding. I am interested in the numbers & the many statistics that signifies cricket. I do barrack for Australia. So far so good. Australia are leading the current series 2-0. But there are three tests remaining. My prediction is for the Australia to get the Ashes back. A good ending to end the year of 2013. I wish all followers a Happy Christmas & a Happy New Year.

Back from the Melbourne trip for the better I hope

I have being feeling mentally stale for the last few months. I decided to spend a few days in Melbourne to get away from the blues of my home city. My home city is Sydney, Australia. Sydney is the largest city in Australia. I made a decision to go on a holiday to Melbourne, Australia. Melbourne is the second largest city in Australia. One reason is that I was very pissed off with the social welfare industry of Australia. Being unemployed from paid work for four years is another reason as well. I booked the trip to Melbourne on the internet. I arrived in Melbourne on March 8, 2013 & left there on March 12, 2013. It turned out that March 11, 2013 was a Labour Day Public Holiday in Melbourne & the rest of the state of Victoria. Melbourne is the state capital of Victoria. I had a good trip & hope to be back for the positive. Beside blogging, I can’t say what I will be doing for now. The main thing I can think of is to keep healthy. Hope for the best. Hope for some good news down the track.

Last week, the Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard has announced the Australian Federal Election will be held on September 14. My prediction is the Australian Labor Party will lose to the Conservatives. The next Prime Minister of Australia will be Tony Abbott. He will win in my opinion because Tony Abbott will come out as the less unpopular one on September 14. The current Prime Minister will win her seat of Lalor which is in Melbourne’s outer eastern suburbs but will quit politics after losing the 2013 election. Anything can happen now till September. Eight months can be forever in Australian politics. Tony Abbott is now the Australian Opposition Leader  leading the Conservative Coalition consisting of the Liberal Party & the National Party.  He has held his current job in 2010 where not long after he led the Conservatives to lose to Labor. This time I predict he will come Australia’s next Prime Minister. He is as well a sitting member of Warringah which is located in Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Here is my early early Australian Election Predictions. Later this year, I will write a post on the Australian election results.  Thank you Wikipedia & the Australian Electoral Commission for the research.

This is the first post of 2013

Hans Asperger

The Indie Aspie yet again. It is me. Why did I call it The Indie Aspie? It is a bit of a story. I have being Asperger’s for the last two years. It is a lot to do that I do act too independent. Is it a good or bad thing? Ask what others think of me then I can have a few comments. Wow I love to see that. I do find some hard to conform. Sometimes it can be too hard. My new year’s plan was to enrol at an Australian technical college in the state of New South Wales & do less posts for being too busy as a student. Guess what after a bad experience at a Disability Services Provider. They absolutely so unsupportive for me to study. I thought I was a good long term investment. My last case manager was a bogan & looked so unprofessional. Looked like she was out of prison. Since I was considered a bad short term investment, I was not considered good enough for a bunch of men hating women. That place is nothing short of rotten ghost branch which is not even listen on the provider’s website. Due to illness, I have got right out of the Disability Employment Services because it is too abnormal to the core. I can’t be a student now. Lost all motivation to go the chosen place of education. Now it is more posts & you are going hear a lot more from me than expected. I am hard man & just want to keep writing. Getting addicted. I can’t stop now because world domination is around the corner. Don’t knock me & knock you off for six like in cricket. Goodbye.
