Top 10 habits of women that annoy men the most :)
Never ordering a dessert, then eating mine
Ooh no, I'm full. I couldn't possibly eat any pudding, I'm stuffed," she says. And when my treacle pudding arrives she would have one spoon after another and finish the whole thing.
Failing to grasp that she moults
Every now and then her hair would block the shower plughole for which she would say, "That's not necessarily mine!"
Never packing enough books, or even any books, for a holiday
He'll make a huge fuss about capsule wardrobes but would never pack a book. Just a couple of magazines for the plane, which she leafs through in four minutes after which she grabs the fat thriller you've been looking forward to reading for months. She would hog it for a week, then leaves it on a boat when she's finished and says: "It was rubbish anyway."
Refusing to offer an opinion when asked for one
Which is so very different from not having an opinion. So if we're thinking of going out for dinner, for example, and you say: "What do you fancy, Chinese? Italian? A nice bit of sushi?"
She'll say: "I don't mind, whatever you feel like."
And when you book an Italian restaurant, she would say, "You know perfectly well that I HATE Italian food."
Constantly saying, "The thing that women find most attractive in a man is a sense of humour"
Which just isn't true. What women find attractive is tall, handsome, rich. That is what women find attractive. And that is all.
Giving up in the middle of every game
Chess or cribbage or tennis or croquet or absolutely anything - it happens the moment they go slightly behind and no longer look like winning.
Never being satisfied with a hotel room
When you arrive at your hotel after a long journey and flop yourself down on the bed, she'll stand in the middle of the room with her hands on her hips and say: "Well, this just won't do, it's supposed to have a view!" Then insist on seeing every single other room in the hotel, before actually deciding that the first room was fine, after all.
Thinking animals have feelings
I feel so sorry for that puppy, it looked so sad, it really wanted us to take it home." No, it's a dog. It does not feel sadness. It feels only hunger and the need to foul the pavement outside my house. It does not feel sad, or rejected, or worthless or unwanted.
Always leaving some awful pop music station on top volume in the car when she was the last one to drive it
So that when you get in on a cold morning to go to work, and switch the radio on expecting to hear the mellifluous mutterings of the Today programme, it instead blasts into shrieking life with some frightful oik bellowing rage into a voice-distorter over the sound of a huge drum kit being kicked down a hill by donkeys.

Secret of success: Get the mind-set of an ant!
All of us tend to look up to big people for lessons on how to get better. We are keen to learn the secrets of their success. But we forget that sometimes the biggest lessons in life come from the smallest folks around us. Now that’s a good lesson to remember!
Take ants for instance. Would you believe those small creatures can teach us how to live a better life? Jim Rohn - the great motivational guru – developed what he called the ‘Ants Philosophy’.He identified four key lessons from the behaviour of ants that can help us lead better lives. Jim Rohn is no more – but his messages continue to inspire. Here then, are the four lessons from Rohn’s ‘Ants Philosophy’.
1. Ants never quit. Have you noticed how ants always look for a way around an obstacle? Put your finger in an ant’s path and it will try and go around it, or over it. It will keep looking for a way out. It won’t just stand there and stare. It won’t give up and go back.
We should all learn to be like that. There will always be obstacles in our lives. The challenge is to keep trying, keep looking for alternative routes to get to our goals. Winston Churchill probably paraphrased the ant’s mindset when he offered this priceless advice: “Never give up. Never, never give up!”
2. Ants think winter all summer. Remember the old story of the ant and the grasshopper? In the middle of summer, the ant was busy gathering food for the winter ahead – while the grasshopper was out having a good time. Ants know that summer - the good times – won’t last forever. Winters will come. That’s a good lesson to remember. When the going is good, don’t be so arrogant as to believe that a crisis or a setback cannot happen to you. Be good to other people. Save for a rainy day. Look ahead. And remember, good times may not last, but good people do.
3. Ants think summer all winter. As they suffer through the unbearable cold of the winter, ants keep reminding themselves that it won’t last forever, and that summer will soon be here. And with the first rays of the summer sun, the ants come out – ready to work, ready to play. When we are down and seemingly out, when we go through what looks like a never-ending crisis, it’s good to remind ourselves that this too shall pass. Good times will come. It’s important to retain a positive attitude, an attitude that says things will get better. As the old saying goes, tough times don’t last. Tough people do.
4. Ants do all they possibly can. How much food does an ant gather in summer? All that it possibly can! Now that’s a great work ethic to have. Do all you can! One ant doesn’t worry about how much food another ant is collecting. It does not sit back and wonder why it should have to work so hard. Nor does it complain about the poor pay! Ants just do their bit. They gather all the food they can. Success and happiness are usually the result of giving 100% - doing all you possibly can. If you look around you, you’ll find that successful people are those who just do all they possibly can.
Follow the four simple steps of Jim Rohn’s ‘Ant Philosophy’ – and you’ll see the difference. Don’t quit. Look ahead. Stay positive. And do all you can.
And there’s just one more lesson to learn from ants. Did you know that an ant can carry objects up to 20 times their own weight? Maybe we are like that too. We can carry burdens on our shoulders and manage workloads that are far, far heavier than we’d imagine. Next time something’s bothering you and weighing you down, and you feel you just can’t carry on, don’t fret. Think of the little ant. And remember, you too can carry a lot more on your shoulders!

My Camera My Friend
“Beauty can be seen in all things, seeing and composing the beauty is what separates the snapshot from the photograph. – Matt Hardy
Photography is a fun hobby unfortunately it can also be an expensive hobby. I got my first camera on my 13th Birthday. It was a film camera and was gifted to me by my loving Paapa. It was Kodak Kroma. I used it for more then 7 years. He was my first gear and a friend who captured so many great moments of my life.
Later I shifted to canon A400 Power shot. It was 3.2 mega pixel cameras that feature a 2.2x optical zoom. Again it was a gift from my parents. It was a point shoot camera and I shot numerous shot from it. It captured my entire college/hostel life. I used this gear for 4 years when one fine day my elder brother gifted me Sony DSC H50.
The camera’s versatile, long-distance flash is powerful enough to illuminate subjects more than 55 feet away (when using ISO 3200, wide angle).Noise reduction is now a user-selectable option, with high, low and standard settings, for greater control over the final look of images. He unit features extensive manual controls, including an exposure bracketing mode that newly includes settings for white balance and color modes. These function records three images, each with a different white balance or color mode applied, to help capture the ambience of the original scene. It has a smile shutter and face detection technologies with child or adult priority recognition. The body makes and futures of this camera seperates it from others point and shoot.
I currently owe this camera and I am using it from last 2 years. There are uncountable occasion where this friend of mine captured my unforgettable moments. I love this camera.
Further I wish to buy a DSLR as early as possible. I am looking forward for Canon EOS 60 D and with 18-250mm Sigma lenses.
I hope some day I will be a great photographer... Amen!
The Art of Self Appreciation
I have learned that doing things at right moments gives you more happiness then being holding it for long. But sometimes due to avoidable circumstances we often face this situation in our life. There is always a difference between what we want and what we get? So shall we stop hoping for it or shall continue our work without giving it any priority? To some extent we should.
I have learned that things don’t happen, its you who need to take the initiative and needs to complete it. Sooner or later the ball comes in your court. One should appreciate it, however sometimes when things don’t happen at the right time it looses its importance. On the other hand you are not always the reason behind everything that happens to you, it’s sometimes the environment, the people and their behavior that harm you.
One should appreciate himself no matter what people think about it. Remember, the most important thing is what we're like inside, not what we own or what we've accomplished. And Pl doesn’t compare yourself to other people. Sometimes that can make you feel good or even inspire you to improve in some way. But sometimes it can make you overlook what's truly good about yourself and make you sad. Self appreciation is helpful for going along not so good times in life. Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not because what you now have was once among the things sometime you hoped for.
“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.”
