2008 Year of the Rat

Ok here we go. I got this from one of friend in her friendster bulletin board. She said 2008 is Rat year.

Rats are both charming and aggressive.
They appear calm and well balanced on
the surface,but underneath, they are
restless and a little nervous. Rats are
compatible,hard working, and they know
how to hang on to a penny.

They are never without admirers. They
are very appealing.They have a bright
and happy personality,and this keeps
them busy socially.They love parties
and other large gatherings. They like
belonging to exclusive clubs and will
often have a close circle of fellow
conspirators.They like involvement and
are very outgoing. Rats cherish friends
and loved ones. For this reason,they
often get entangled with
others'problems and lives.

Rats love money and are quite shrewd
where a buck is concerned. It is a hard
task to separate Rats from their money.
However, Rats can be very generous when
their loved ones are concerned.
Relatives are always welcome. Rats are
definitely clannish and clever. With
all these people around, Rats always
find tasks for them to earn their keep.
People will be put to work quickly in
the Rat's house. Rats know how to keep
a secret, if it's their own,but they
are adept at finding out what others
try to keep to themselves, and Rats
wouldn't be above using the information
if it were to their benefit.

One can always tell when Rats are
upset. They become edgy,very nervous,
and quite nagging. Rats are always
taken by a bargain. They often buy
things they don't need and tend to save
everything. Souvenirs and sentimental
odds and ends are found tucked away
everywhere.

Since they make it a point to know
everything about everybody,Rats are
excellent writers. They have a good
memory and are extremely inquisitive.
Rats can be successful in almost
everything they try to do. They easily
adapt themselves to the situation at
hand. They are at their best during any
crisis and are great problem solvers.
Rats are very level headed and are also
very alert. Their intuition is strong
and are always on the lookout for
opportunities to better themselves.
Rats seldom get into jams they can't
escape since they cover themselves well
in advance.They have a built in alarm
system.

One of the Rat's biggest fault is that
they try to do too much at once. They
often scatter their energies and get
nothing accomplished. Once they learn
to finish what they have started,there
is no stopping them from being
successful. The Rat must also watch
those fast deals and those great
bargains. In these areas their judgment
may fail them. They must not become too
greedy,or they will suffer a financial
blow or two.

Rats have great respect for their
parents and dote on their own children.
They love their home. Family life is
very important to them. Rats born
during the evening are tempted to a
more hectic life than those born during
the day.

Rats learn early, quickly, and are avid
readers. They know how to express
themselves well-both written and
orally. Given the slightest chance,
Rats can make a success of their lives.
