do you like your work? are you contented with the salary you're getting? could you teach me how to be contented because i really really need to understand why I'm working and still with that company?
i, myself, don't feel contented.. does money matters? or does one have to enjoy what they're doing at the same time?.. is it too much to ask for both?
it's so hard when both are not present... for me it's OK na just to have one of them, but unfortunately, both are not present in my current job..huhuhuhu..so sad but true.. the pay is pathetic because it's not even close to being financially rewarding, and the company im with or the people i work with, some could be really pretentious (and would you believe we're just less than 40 in the office). Always judging every move you make, too many insecurities..grrrr!.
i'm not nagging or anything. i'm just telling my point of view. so if you have advises to give just feel free to link me... hehehe Labels: work

Why is discipline such a big dilemma? Because it feels like a tightrope act. On one side there's the peril of permissiveness — no one wants to raise a brat. On the other side there's the fear of over-control — who wants to be the hardliner raising cowed, sullen kids? What we need is a comfortable middle ground to ensure that our little ones grow up to be respectful, caring, and well behaved.
First, the ground rules: To set the stage for discipline success, here are the bottom-line rules many experts agree on: 1. We're all in this together. Right from the start, teach your kids that your family is a mutual support system, meaning that everyone pitches in. Even a baby can learn to "help" you lift her by reaching out her arms, says Madelyn Swift, founder and director of Childright and author of Discipline for Life, Getting It Right With Children.
2. Respect is mutual. One of the most common complaints parents and kids have about each other is "You're not listening." Set a good example early on: When your child tries to tell you something, stop what you're doing, focus your attention, and listen. Later you can require the same courtesy from her.
3. Consistency is king. One good way to raise a child with emotional strength? Be consistent and unwavering about rules and chores, says Harvard professor Dan Kindlon, author of Too Much of a Good Thing. Even if you pick just one chore to insist on, your child will be better off, Kindlon says. "Being firm and consistent teaches your child that you care enough about him to expect responsible behavior."
4. Life's not always fair. We're so afraid of disappointing or upsetting our kids — too afraid, say some discipline pros. "If a child never experiences the pain of frustration — of having to share a toy or wait their turn in line — or if they're never sad or disappointed, they won't develop psychological skills that are crucial for their future happiness," says Kindlon. So if your child's upset because a younger sibling got a different punishment, for example, it's okay to say "I understand that this seems unfair to you, and I'm sorry you're upset, but life isn't always fair."

sorry i haven't been updating my blog regularly. very busy with work (store visits) that i end up going home around 9pm! sabi nga ni ate, nd uwi ng matinong babae na me asawa at anak! hahaha! will talk more about work in another post as that deserves a separate entry!
ate tagged me about this vanity thing. here goes: | You Are 55% Vain | 
You're a little vain, but more than anything you have a healthy amount of confidence.
Thinking the world of yourself is great. Just don't think less of those who aren't as pretty as you! |
1. make up for me is: face powder, eyebrow liner, lip gloss. but i make sure i look stunning (love your own!) for special occasions.
2. im not into the current trends. since i do store visits (think 4 malls a day, at least!) every single day, i have to wear comfy clothes. i shop wisely now as i have a son to think of. but if i get the chance, i scrub up very nicely.
3. i use ponds facial wash. d ako mapili
4. when i have the time, i go for facials and massages. usually when im at my parent's house para libre ni mami! hahaha
5. i use my son's cologne - nenuco!
6. i try to grow my nails long but sometimes, it's hard to maintain.
7. im not a shoe addict, like my sister. i wear flip flops more or sandals. in my line of work, comfy is the name of the game!
8. in my bag: lip gloss, powder, eyebrow liner i'll leave it up to you.. tell me, am i vain? =) tag yourself, if you want to!

my son, who is 3 years old, is now attending nursery school. one time, the class was singing 'my toes, my knees...' with actions. he can't follow what they're doing since he's at the back and being little, can't see what the teacher was doing. so what he did was left his position at the back and went in front, right beside the teacher! that is without being prompted! he was able to follow suit. how wise can he get?! for a 3 yr old? maabilidad!
