How to use a linguistically diverse wedding MC and coordinator
Often MCs act as the central point of contact and save you the headache, they are kinda like your spokesperson. The MC isn’t there to just make announcements either, s/he would take command of the space and ensure that you would receive the heads up to each formality so that you are never caught off guard or hurried into doing impromptu activities.

Chinese Cultural Day at Balwyn Primary School
When designing the program, we wanted to make it fun, and interactive. Sometimes it meant that modifications were made to the original craft and culture, but it would mean that it would be easier to absorb for the children or friendly to learn. If this experience is something they’d share with others then I would say that I've done my job. And if this day has helped them realise that they can be an ambassador for their culture(s) or they can connect what they love and what they know together to make a living, then that's a cherry on top!

Same sex marriage no longer just a dream in Australia
Very exciting news! The LGBTIQ community will now be able to legalise their relationships and enter into married statuses! And I certainly hope that marriages between the people in love is a status quo, and not a trend. I must say that I am pleased that our community is really supportive, especially the Victorians; some of my local friends have even registered to vote just so they can do their part in the postal vote. My parents also voted "yes".
