Narcissists

Image
google image As proud as a peacock and that's exactly how we describe a narcissist. Never in my life  I  thought that I would like to write anything about this. Even though last year when one of my friends had opened a discussion about this issue on facebook, I didn't join in. For me, it's natural for us to possess some amount of narcissism just to boost our self-esteem but when somebody is too obsessed about himself/herself, it becomes so annoying...not that I'm jealous of that person or anything the like, it's just plain simple pain in the neck to be facing this narcissist almost everyday in my working life......The recurring incidents that I experinced in the  past few weeks have prompted me to write this post... I have come to a point that I feel I would burst every time she opens her mouth coz every single word she utters would be about her, her and her, and of course she is always right. Not only that she talks highly of herself but she also tends to loo

What my zodiac says....

I'm not the typical kind of person  who reads and believes what your horoscope says about you, but today I stumbled across my horoscope and I think I like to listen to the advice.... If you have been experiencing any problems with your health lately, follow up with a doctor's appointment. This isn't necessarily an emergency situation -- it is probably your subconscious reminding you that you need to take care of yourself! On that note, how are you doing at taking care of your emotional needs lately? There is no crime in saying no to a friend's invitation because you'd rather spend some time alone, you know. Make yourself your top priority.

It's been a very long time since I posted anything about our pets... Well, they are growing in number now and I 've lost count of the number of baby hamsters....It seems every few weeks there would be new batch of babies....most are survived, some dead and some went missing. The twins don't really care much now about the hamsters cause they are simply too many of them to be taken of and there was not enough space...I'm thinking of giving them away.... On the other hand, for the rabbit it was not as prolific as the hamsters. the first batch of babies died at birth and the second batch was only four survive out of five...now they are about one and the half months and fast growing... This cute black  and white baby rabbit named Panda by the twins for the obvious reason There are drinking milk in a plate (the others are Fifi, Popo and Coco) They were allowed to play in the house a couple of weeks earlier but now all are staying outside th

It had been ages since I last followed my hubby to stay at a hotel cause this year things have been different and the timing also seems to be out of synchronization with my school activities...Thus, I complained to him one day and not long after that I received a letter to attend a five-day meeting in PD. (Actually, the letter was not directed to me but I had to be there on behalf on my colleague who was also nominated to attend the other event at the same period of time)...Then, I thought that it was my chance to be away from school for a while and spend my time leisurely by the beach.... The beach and the hotel was not bad while the meeting was suck and the food was even worse...(well, I'm not complaining since we got to eat six times a day). Luckily the meeting ended earlier so i got to get back on Thursday instead of Friday. Came Friday morning, off I went to school as usual following my routine and everything went on smoothly until I was driving back home... there were e
