Another facebook story......

-
Yesterday I accepted a friend request from my former students when I first started teaching....It is nice of him to still remember and try to find me....and today when I happen to check my facebook again, I found some more friend requests from people who happen to be his friends and used to be my acquaintance as well....now it is a string of them coming to me and asking whether I still remember them or their family......it is like bringing back another lifetime (that had been long lost and forgotten by me) along with all the bitter sweet memories........

Recollecting all those faces bring the nostalgia in me....which reminds me of another situation brought about by an old friend of mine via facebook....He went for all the trouble to gather all of the photos of friends from our former high school and makes it as a gallery...now he managed to collect about fifty of us....remembering back the names and faces was a difficult task for me but I enjoyed it very much...and I could get in touch with my old buddies again..... that is one of plus factors of facebooking  and I'm not saying that facebooking is all bad....we only need to find the right time to get online (say 5.30 in the morning) so that nobody will disturb you....

Weekends were out of question since there were more than half a dozen wedding invitations that we need to attend. So, anyway last Tuesday morning off we went to Cameron Highlands; just the five of us, hubby and I and the three girls who were beyond excited to go (none of the boys were going).   Since hubby had given a condition that he would be studying in the car all  the way if he was to go (his exam was on the following day), so  Sha was driving and I could tell that she loved every moment of it .. We arrived there at around noon and the place seemed crowded with people as it was ...

How to say no to your boss?

-
Well.....  the truth is you simply don't......it's something that I learnt that from my previous boss who advised me years back when I jhad just started my early career, the three magic words "never say no". Just the other day, I was debating with myself whether to say no or just accept my boss's suggestion (read: order) without giving him a slightest idea that I'm not capable of doing it ......it's kinda hard to explain coz it's not my job and I don't want to be a scapegoat to be doing it just because somebody else doesn't want to do it.  Anyway, it happened in the meeting, out of the blue like one bright idea bestowed upon him, my boss suggested me doing it ......which, no doubt appalled everyone in the committee and I was left absolutely stunned and speechless........obviously, I didn't make any comment and it was decided then.... Later, came few close friends playing devil's advocate......'This is not your ...
