I'm Just Me Because ...

Last week was a strange week for me. I always have a hard time adjusting to sleeping alone after the Professor goes back home but it was worse than usual this time and I don't know why.

I was sleeping 2hrs here & 2 hrs there and on Thursday It was more like 30 minutes here and there. Then Friday I slept most of the day spending only about 4 hours awake during the whole day. Saturday I was awake a bit more but that was because I was expecting the littles and forced myself to get up & prepare.

The funny part is that the days I was not sleeping I had more energy and manage to clean or straighten my whole apartment. I am not sure why that was.

Hopefully this week I have settled back into my usual schedule so far so good but time will tell.

National Make a Friend Day

I am not very good at making friends or keeping them it seems. I do not go outside much, in fact I hardly leave my home unless it is family related. That makes it hard especially since friends expect you to come to them at least once in a while and I find I can't. If it were simply a matter of laziness it would be understandable but it isn't. Some days I can't even open the door to let in some fresh air. I do not know where the fear comes from I just know that that is what I feel when I think about going outside most of the time. Agoraphobia: Triggers for this anxiety may include wide-open spaces, crowds (social anxiety), or traveling (even short distances).

Causes: Genetic and environmental factors Symptoms: Anxiety in situations perceived to be unsafe, panic attacks Treatment:

My Fair Lady

Eliza Doolittle Day is celebrated by fans of the musical My Fair Lady , a musical based off of George Bernard Shaw's 1912 play Pygmalion . In the musical, Eliza Doolittle is a Cockney flower girl who wants to learn to speak properly. At the time the story takes place, proper speech was a symbol of upward mobility and education. Eliza meets Professor Henry Higgins in Covent Garden and he agrees to give her elocution lessons. Higgins believes he can transform her from someone who uses words like "ain't" to someone who can fit in with London's elite. In the musical, Eliza dreams of meeting the king. She sings a song, "Just You Wait," to share her thoughts. It is in the song that the date for Eliza Doolittle Day comes from: One day I’ll be famous! I’ll be proper and prim; Go to St. James so often I will call it St. Jim! One evening the king will say: 'Oh, Liza, old thing, I want all of England your praises to sing. Next week on the twentieth of M

Emotional Intelligence - What it is?

F or those unfamiliar, emotional intelligence is a self-governing initiative to make healthy assessments about how our minds influence quality behaviour . Such assessments help us to better understand our minds and reduce emotions harmful, yet natural effect on our thoughts and behaviour . Like the sensory systems, the emotional coping mechanisms you have are not good or bad mostly they just need retuning or at least mine does. Over the next 4 weeks, I'll be looking into each section of Emotional Intelligence and sharing what I find with you. Self-Awareness: The core of Emotional Intelligence is self-awareness. Self-awareness is comprised of three competencies; emotional self-awareness, where you are able to read and understand your emotions as well as recognise their impact on work performance and relationships; accurate self-assessment, where you are able to give a realistic evaluation of your strengths and limitations; self-confidence, where you have a positive and strong s
