... don't sleep too late! ...

A reminder to all. Take note...don't always sleep late!!

Good rest and sound sleep is very

Important... if u don't sleep well,

The toxic in your body will accumulate..

Affecting your health and your mood...

The main causes of liver damage are:

1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are the main cause.

2. Not urinating in the morning.

3. Too much eating.

4. Skipping breakfast.

5. Consuming too much medication.

6. Consuming too much preservatives, additives, food coloring, and artificial sweetener.

7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil. As much as possible reduce cooking oil use when frying, which includes even the best cooking oils like olive oil. Do not consume fried foods when you are tired, except if the body is very fit.

8. Consuming overly done foods also add to the burden of liver. Veggies should be eaten raw or cooked 3-5 parts. Fried veggies should be finished in one sitting, do not store.

We just have to adopt a good daily lifestyle and eating habits. Maintaining good eating habits and time condition are very important for our body to absorb and get rid of unnecessary chemicals according to 'schedule.'

Because:

Evening at 9 - 11pm: is the time for eliminating unnecessary/toxic chemicals (de-toxification) from the antibody system (lymph nodes). This time duration should be spent by relaxing or listening to music. If during this time a housewife is still in an unrelaxed state such as washing the dishes or monitoring children doing their homework, this will have a negative impact on her health.

Evening at 11pm - 1am : The de-toxification process in the liver, and ideally should be done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 1 - 3am : de-toxification process in the gall, also ideally done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 3 - 5am : de-toxification in the lungs. Therefore there will sometimes be a severe cough for cough sufferers during this time. Since the de-toxification process had reached the respiratory tract, there is no need to take cough medicine so as not to interfere with toxin removal process.

Morning 5 - 7am : de-toxification in the colon, you should empty your bowel.

Morning 7 - 9am : Absorption of nutrients in the small intestine, you should be having breakfast at this time. Breakfast should be earlier, before 6:30am, for those who are sick. Breakfast before 7:30am is very beneficial to those wanting to stay fit. Those who always skip breakfast, they should change their habits, and it is still better to eat breakfast late until 9 -10am rather than no meal at all. Sleeping so late and waking up too late will disrupt the process of removing unnecessary chemicals. Aside from that, midnight to 4am is the time when the bone marrow produces blood.

Therefore, have a good sleep and don't sleep late.

carol wanted company and persuaded me to watch with her.. seeing her so poor thing plus my soft heartedness i gave in..

starting of the show was fine.. came to the middle of it.. i dozed off.. haha.. and not only once, it's twice!! haha..

really won't watched these type of moive anymore.. imagine years ago i fell asleep watching star strek!! yes, that is really sleeping...

so, conclusion: harry potter is better.. at least it only made me dozed off.. haha..

... stupid me ...

how can a person be so stupid?!?!?!

i was in the office today and there is this heavy duty door which separate my office and my workshop..

everyday we were slamming the door which it had been repaired twice already.. don't what came over me today.. so i thought today i shall not do it.. thus, i used my right hand to hold on to the door..

*door closed slowly ~ bang!*

damn it!! *holding on to my thumb and cursing at it* %*$#!#$#^

i GOT hit by the door!! it was definitely painful lah!!! you can't imagine how terrible the pain was.. and for the rest of my afternoon till now i couldn't exert any force with it..

see the picture which i took before i sleep..

my right thumb was swollen and there were blood clots in the nails.. it was also bruised..

good lor.. wanted to go bowling, now i can't already.. :(

i'm stupid right?? haha..

... bored sunday ...

since i lost my sleep on saturday, i though i could 'nua' at home the whole day on sunday.. no show to watch online, no place to go as nobody date me.. :D

received a call from my two young friends.. they were bored too.. want me to meet them at tea garden instead..

ya, we were back to what we were doing the night before.. playing 'chor dai di' at mac.. haha.. anyway, lady luck wasn't with me tonight.. had an equal share of shuffling cards.. that's why i never gambled lor.. i'm a goody good gal ok?? *big grin*

anyway, what we had experienced then was kind of weird cum funny..

as my friends wanted to smoke, we decided to change to the outdoor tables.. there was this indian guy who was studying alone there.. sitting a table away from us.. the moment we sat down beside him, he started giving us this what-are-you-doing-here look..

initially, my two friends were 'illegally' smoking at the non smoking zone.. (ok ok, this is not the 重点) then, we saw him got up from his seat and walked toward the counter.. oh shit!! we thought he gonna report us for the illegal act so they quickly 'put' away their cigarettes.. yes, put the cigarettes into the box again for later puff!! haha.. cumbersome smokers right?? haha..

we waited and waited, continued our game while monitoring if any mac staffs approached us.. nothing happened!! this indian fella didn't come back after a loong lonng time!! we were laughing away at our stupid act.. being afraid for nothing.. then he came back ~ to his seat and he started looking at us again..

i was jokingly telling my friend, he maybe want to 'tackle' her lah.. or else he won't be looking and looking at us right?? or maybe he wanted to join us in the game?! LOL..

subsequently, we started to get used to that weird indian guy..

what weird experience, really!

... lose my sleep ~ again ...

went to catch a show last night.. Ice Age 3 and the 3D version lor.. well, the feeling is great.. however the specs wasn't really comfortable as i'm wearing my own specs.. so it keep dropping.. would be better if you're on contact lens..

show is funny.. truly enjoyed it..

as it was a bit to go home early on a Friday night, so decided to meet my 2 friends instead.. couldn't decide where to go and ended up at west coast mac.. had supper and then it's playing cards time!! played 'chor dai di' the whole night there.. pretty contended as i only shuffled cards 3 times throughout the whole night.. LOL..

after the 'fast and furious' episode, i came to know my vios could do 160km/h in singapore lor.. of course i'm not the driver lah.. i tried running at 140km/h but failed last time..

it was impressive however but i don't quite really enjoyed the thrill at all.. maybe i'm getting old ba.. compare to youngsters (aka that 2 friends of mine) they are enjoying it instead.. even tell me next time ask that fella bring them go car ride!! i'm speechless...

after all these saga, i reached home at 9am this morning.. however, i woke up at noon (which i didn't wanted!), clocking only 3hrs of sleep (to be exact, 1150hrs).. had short naps in between until my sis woke me up at 3pm to send her to class.. yeh, i lose my previous sleep again :-(

so, it's time for me to catch up on my sleep liao! night!!

... i've got H1N1 flu like symptoms! ...

stay away from me!! haha.. though my flu is mild and i seemed to recover today already.. (now it's my back which caused me pain instead *sad*)

yesterday morning i was having slight cough and running nose.. so went to see a doctor and i was given 2 days MC..

my brother whom just returned from indonesia for vacation was worse.. he has 5 days straight in a row!! haha.. just because he has running nose and need to declare his travel history.. poor him!

now, he's worried about jeopardising his own work.. since the project his handling won't be able to run without him (that's what he says).. but we told him to rest and monitor his temperature for these few days... just in case people start pointing fingers that he's the start of the cluster..

so, both of us didn't went to work then..

.. stupid handbrake break down again ...

my family's vios has to be send to see doctor again.. same problem again.. this time it's my sister who couldn't release the handbrake.. so, she called me for help.. gave her the Marsiling service centre..

i must really put this down man! this is from my sister's narration..

as our car is still under warranty so we could send to any service centre for diagnosis.. as my sister's work place is in marsiling so naturally the nearest workshop would definitely be woodlands.. so she called the centre and after 2 tries a guy picks up the call..

him: "what problem does your car has?"

sis: "i cannot release the handbrake"

him: "oh, like that ah.. so you want me to do what huh?"

sis: "could you send a mechanic down to check the car, if the hand brake can release then i can drive already"

him: "oh, we don't provide this type of service.. and i'm having my lunch now.. so you want me to send the tow truck then? the tow truck no. is xxxxxxxx"

my sis is already boiling at this time already..

sis (still politely)"yes, i guess that is the only way out right?"

him: "oh, why don't you send to other workshop to check instead? coz' if you send here and we can't do then it's a waste of time right? and we might not have the parts here also.. so it's better to send to other workshop right?"

hello, you didn't even check the car how you know it couldn't be repair at your side?!?!

he just refused to take the car and keep pestering my sis to send to other place.. she is so pissed off with him.. in the end, we get it towed to Leng Kee instead.. and the service is so much better!!

when the tow truck driver arrives he also asked my sis why not tow to woodlands as he just come from there and there was no car at all! my sis said it's not she don't want but it's the service guy that doesn't want to accept... subsequently, 2 or 3 people asked her the same thing!! including the Leng Kee service lady that called and verify details with her..

when i heard it just now, i'm so unhappy!! being a service guy yet this is the type of service we get.. no wonder she was so impatient when she called me..

this guy better wake up his idea.. he's lucky my sis didn't got his name.. else i'm sure to lodge a report about it..

... transformer ...

megatrons, decepticons, autobots... anything you could name it in transformer movie..

went to catch it tonight with one of my new found friend, diane and her gal friend, eunice.. we had dinner at kenny rogers and then catch the show..

after 2 hours of restless posture switching, the movie ended.. it wasn't so bad at all mah.. kind of enjoyed it.. just that the part where the robots transform were a bit noisy and draggy..

i even had a friend who left half way as she was having headaches due to the show.. even diane said her head was spinning too after she reached home.. yes, she watched it already and this is the second time.. accompany her friend mah..

overall it's still not too bad lah.. catch it if you love transformers!! but i'm sure there will be a 3rd sequel..

... we got certified!! ...

after a year and months of consolidating documents, writing them and putting them into policies, forms and lists...

the day has come..

my company is finally certified with ISO 9001, 14001 and 18001 today!! after 2 days of auditing yesterday and today..

oh in case, you're ignorant, i shall enlighten you a bit.. ISO 9001 is quality management, in short it's what we call customer satisfaction, ISO 14001 is the environment aspects and ISO 18001 is safety and health..

yeah! yeah! yeah!

finally we could all rest in peace..opps, i mean work in peace.. haha..

... 1D durian trip ...

joined a few of my colleagues and we went malaysia johor state pekananas (not sure if it's spell this way) city for durians!!

of course we went other place lah.. like the chocolate factory, local specialities shop, organic farm, and a sumptuous seafood dinner..

it's very very enjoyable especially when i had durians to my heart content.. haha.. think i have about 20 seeds at one go?? hmm.. didn't knew i could eat that much.. haha..

my lovable colleague couldn't eat durian as she's on chinese medicine.. so... that explains why she is eating the curry bee hoon..

coincidentally another friend of mine also joined a similar trip.. wonder if she enjoyed herself??

both ways immigration were packed like sardine.. as usual, malaysia mah.. need i explained more??

got home about 10pm after a hard day's 'work' and of course i got back some souvenirs.. without failed after some 'weightlifting' and hassle..

with me are: 8 durians, 3kg rambutans, 1 pineapple and half kg mangosteens with me.. yes, had to carry them with me to clear the singapore customs.. really no joke right?? i'm super woman aren't i?? :P

... a very touching moment ...

(Dedicated to a wonderful feeling called - FRIENDSHIP)

Year : 1975

Situation : Last day of school

Arjun Singh and Pargat Singh are very close friends. The whole school talked about their friendship. They had been friends right from their kindergarten days. They have studied together, roamed around together, sat together in school, ate together. They both wanted to become Police officials and serve the country.But today was a day they always dreaded. It was their last day together.

On their way back from School Arjun started talking

Arjun : Bro! I am moving to a different city to study. I will miss you man

Pargat : I will miss you too mate. But nothing can break our friendship. We will at least meet once every year.

Arjun : Yes that is a deal and they parted with tears in their eyes...

As time went by, both got busy with their work life. They kept their promise for two years and after that they moved on with their own lives and in the process Arjun lost his contact with Pargat. Time went by and both became Police Officers.

Year: 2009

Venue: The Police station where Arjun works

Tring... Tring... Arjun picks up the call and he gets a pleasant surprise...

"Is this Arjun?"

"Yes. Who is on the line?"

"Bro. Its Pargat! I just found out that you are posted in this station"

Tear drops welled up Arjun's eyes

Arjun : Where are you?

Pargat : I am standing outside the Police station. Come Out

Arjun : Is it? I am coming right away.

Arjun rushed out of the Police station and saw Pargat standing outside. They were seeing each other for the first time after thirty years. He wanted to go and hug his friend. But he could not hug his friend.

It was a very touching moment for both of them :

... why men cheat ...

Want to affair-proof your marriage? Then first, you've got to understand what makes men cheat. Hear it from the relationship experts as they dish out on the number one reason for infidelity and ways to protect your relationship.

Why men cheat

The XY species: They're notorious for their roving eyes and their obsession with bikini-clad models, so connect the dots, and the automatic assumption is that men cheat for the sex.

But here's the surprising truth: According to marriage counselor M. Gary Neuman, author of The Truth About Cheating who surveyed 200 cheating and non-cheating husbands, the number one reason for straying is emotional dissatisfaction, which an astounding 48 percent of cheating men listed as the main trigger. Only 8 percent of men listed sexual dissatisfaction as the primary factor in their infidelity. In fact, just 12 percent of cheating husbands said their mistress was more physically attractive than their wife.

Many of these "emotionally dissatisfied" men claim they don't feel appreciated or wanted. And Neuman believes it is this feeling of underappreciation and lack of thoughtfulness that far outweigh any other reason for infidelity.

Men need emotional intimacy, too

The truth is, acts of kindness and gestures of appreciation mean a lot to men, too, even though they are less likely to express these feelings than women. Patricia Covalt, author of What Smart Couples Know agrees that emotional connection is key to a happy relationship. "Most long-term relationships/marriages eventually evolve to a point when friendship and/or companionship is the glue that holds them together," adds Covalt.

Which is why it's critical for couples to include intimate conversation, emotional connecting, and making "us" time for each other. Check out these ways to keep your relationship strong.

Strengthening your relationship

Make your partner feel appreciated. It's easy for long-term couples to start taking each other for granted, and the things you loved about your partner when you first met may have faded over time. However, it's important to keep expressing that feeling of admiration for each other: Thank him when he does something nice for you, and aim to give him at least one sincere compliment everyday -- be it a physical asset ("You look delicious in this shirt!") or a personality trait. ("Thank you for being so supportive.") When you express appreciation for your partner, it reassures him your love and helps boosts his self-esteem.

Make for more quality couple time. You need time as a couple to make sure your marriage stays strong, so set aside at least ten minutes everyday just for each other. Any activity that reconnects you and nurtures your bond counts as quality couple time -- whether it's a lazy weekend lounging around, cooking something together, a pillow talk before you go to sleep, a quiet evening at home alone with the kids at the parents' place, or even a mid-week lunch date. All these special moments together add up to reinforce your intimacy as a couple.

P/S: i promised i will put up one for ourselves, why women cheat.. :D

一口氣

是我太多心還是我們已經囘不去了？

不知不覺我倆已經一個禮拜沒聯絡了！沒話題了嗎？還是你根本沒心情做任何事？

看到你的facebook的status 讓我有點納悶。一定是跟她吵了一場不然你爲何要改變自己？

真的需要改嗎？就爲了爭一口氣？

... updates ~ my interests ...

meet up with jo~N aka my sista and 2 of her church mates to get roller blades.. yes, this is my latest interest right now other than bowling.. haha..

talking about bowling.. the world is so small.. i got to know a new bowling kaki through work! she's from TNT Freight and is trying to get my business.. haha..

while chatting with her.. (opps! it's during working hours.. yes, i admit) found out hell lots of information about her.. then we just stepped on the bowling topic and wow!! we're so enthusiastic and delighted about it.. so, arranged to play bowling next tuesday at safra mt faber..

ok, back to my roller blading thing.. oh, 4 of us went to this shop, Skateline to look at some roller blades as they are having discount.. it's the GSS right now.. so i guess everyone is giving discount everywhere..

it turned out roller blades could cost almost the same price as a bowling ball.. of course, amateur like me would not need to get high end ones.. those $100-200 would do just fine.. this sport is cheaper than bowling isn't it??

anyway, my guru and another gal (half teacher i would say) need to get new ones as their old one are spoiled.. in the end, both my guru and my sis bought their new toy..

well, i'm luckier.. i'm getting mine for free!! yippee!! :P as it turns out someone is giving away a old pair and it happens to be my size.. i will be getting them on sunday and we're all going roller blading after that.. (god is looking after me.. *a-men* ) hee :-)

crossed my fingers i could wear that free pair, else i would need to get myself a new pair..

... breast cancer ...

this is a forwarded mail... take your time to read it... better safe than sorry!

1. 為何乳癌最常發生在靠近腋窩的地方？

不久以前，我參加了一個由 Terry Birk 贊助的「乳癌防制研討會」，在最後的問答時間裏，我提出了一個問題：「為什麼乳癌 常見的區域在靠近腋窩的地方呢？」

當時沒有人可以回答我的問題，可是最近我收到這封信，我發現它解決了我當時提出的問題。一位朋友將這封信轉寄給我，我把它給一位正在接受化療的朋友看，她說在她最近參加的互助團體中，她也正好學到這件事情。那就是「導致毒素累積成惡性腫瘤的原因是 --- 剃或拔除腋毛。」

最主要的理由是：人體有幾個主要排除毒素的區域，包括了膝蓋後方關節，耳後，鼠蹊及腋窩。它們排除毒素的方法就是「流汗」。

腋毛會幫助汗水順著腋毛流出體外，若剃或拔掉腋毛，因而阻止了我們身體的毒素從腋窩排出。但是這些毒素並不會因此而消失，反而會因為無法排汗而儲存我們腋下的淋巴結，幾乎所有的乳癌都是發生在乳房外側上方的區域，那正是淋巴結所在的地方。它剛開始生腫瘤的地方就剛剛好離腋窩不遠，不久就會蔓延到整個乳房。

男人之所以比較不會得到9癌的原因是因為他們從未剃掉腋毛，這些毒素就被阻絕在他們的腋毛之外而不會直接接觸到皮膚。可能你會問男人每天剃鬍子為何不會得乳癌，因下巴並不靠近乳房，也沒有淋巴組織。

不但如此，在剃毛時剃刀可能會割傷皮膚，女人如果在剃毛之後馬上使用防汗/止汗用品，更會提高罹患乳癌的機率，因為這樣皮膚上那些細微的傷痕使得止汗用品的化學物質可以直接進入到腋窩。

就算你不搽防汗用品，在剃毛或拔毛時，會暫時使腋下毛孔擴張，使細菌更容易進入，有腋毛也會幫助阻隔細菌直接接觸到腋窩。

西方洋人婦女比我們華人女性更注重儀錶，但是現在她們也開始不剃腋毛了，因為她們現在也意識到不美觀總好過患上乳癌。

請你將這個訊息轉寄給你認識的女孩子，你的姐妹, 尤其是你媽嗎, 40歲以上的婦女更加不可以剃，因為這個年齡層患癌風險更加高，因為乳癌的罹患率已經高的驚人，這樣的認識或許可以挽救許多的生命。

請將此信轉寄給你生命中所有的女人：母親、女兒、姊妹、伯母阿姨以及朋友。

2. 一種罕見的新種乳癌於十一月被發現。

一名女士的乳房如同哺乳中的婦人般起了濕疹。

她的乳房X光攝影片並沒有顯示出任何代表硬塊的陰影，因此醫師只開了一般的抗生素以避免進一步的細菌感染。上了兩次醫院後病情卻持續惡化，醫師於是再度請她去照乳房X光攝影。

這回陰影出現了。切片檢查後，發現了急速複製中的惡性腫瘤細胞。為了減緩細胞複製，先是化療，接下來乳房切除，然後又是一整個療程的化療以及放射線治療。九個月的密集治療之後，醫師們保她恢復健康了﹗

之後整整一年的時間，她過著最充實的生活，然而這批頑強的癌細胞竟轉移到肝臟！四個療程之後她決定捨棄有著許多副作用的化療，找回生活品質。她詳細的計畫最後五個月所有的生活細節，最後的幾天在嗎啡的麻醉效果下，安祥的走了。

她在臨死前留下了這封訊息，希望轉達給所有的女性朋友們！女士們！請隨時注意身體細微的變化，並且，有任何不正常的情形時，請儘早尋求醫療協助！

乳房外柏哲氏病：這是一種罕見的癌前病變，以濕疹型態發生於乳頭及乳暈上。濕疹後來會形成一片邊緣有硬皮的傷口。我不曾懷疑這可能是癌症，但癌症找到了我。

我的乳房並沒有任何異。我看醫師唯一的理由是因為這偶爾會發癢、疼痛，十分惱人又醜陋的濕疹。家庭醫師開給我的任何乳膏都無法除去它；皮膚科醫師先前給我的眼周皮膚病藥物也無法治好它。

讓似乎讓人感到不安，但無法使我聯想到癌症的到來。我懷疑許多的女性朋友們都不知道乳暈及乳頭上的濕疹可能象徵乳癌。（我一開始的症狀僅是乳頭上冒出一個小痘子）。

柏哲氏病之所以可怕的理由之一，就是因為：乳頭上那似乎無害的細菌感染或是發炎，卻在延誤就醫後一發不可收拾。

有哪些症狀呢?

i. 乳頭有持續的紅腫、不明分泌物以及導致搔癢及灼熱感的硬皮剝落。（我一開始的時候除了一邊乳房有硬皮剝落外，沒有其他症狀）。

ii. 乳頭上有無法癒合的傷口。 （我當初的傷口分佈在乳暈，乳頭中彊並且有白色濃稠分泌物）

iii. 通常只有一邊乳房被感染。這怎麼判斷呢？您的醫師會在觸壓檢查以後，建議您立刻做兩個乳房的X光攝影。因為正常皮膚炎的症狀為紅腫、硬皮剝落以及不明分泌物，所以醫師只有在症狀轉僅產生于單一乳房時，才會懷疑癌症的可能性。屆時進行發炎部位的病理切片，就能找出病因。請嚴肅的看待這封信，並且盡你所能的轉寄給親朋好友；它可能拯救許多人的生命。

我的乳癌在無數化療、28個療程的放射線物理治療以及持續服用抗雌激素後，依舊轉移到骨隨。如果能早點診斷出乳癌，說不定就不會發生這種事了。

致所有的讀者：女性同胞不知道柏哲氏病是非常讓人難過的消息。為了幫助四周所有的女人，請將此訊息轉發給周圍的人，你可能會因此 挽救一個生命....

3. 另外還有一條重要資訊請注意：面紙 〔Facial Tissue〕含有滑石粉塵會致卵巢癌.... 你不可不知面紙含有滑石粉塵會致卵巢癌。 這不是~~衛生紙〔Toilet Paper〕與面紙〔Tissue〕擦在哪里（屁股上）的問題喔！

以面紙取名為面紙，因為只能擦臉。衛生紙取名為衛生紙，就是要擦了會衛生的。

以下資料來源：永豐餘造紙股份有限公司∶

董事長秘書楊秘書以前曾看過有關衛生紙與面紙的討論。一直覺得有些疑問，所以我終於請教本公司研發部陳經理得知衛生紙與面紙的製作差異：兩者均是原生紙漿製作，均有經過消毒程式，衛生紙未再加工添加任何添加物。而面紙加工添加入濕強劑，在水中不易斷裂，所以不適沖入馬桶；又添加了柔軟劑及活性劑，紙粉（粉塵）多。你若不信可將面紙在空抖幾下，你會看到很多紙粉掉出來。

一般人都認為面紙紙質較好，就是因為添加了這些東西加工，也使得成本居高，當然售價也較高。

因此陳經理解釋說，面紙不能當作衛生紙使用，尤其女孩子使用面紙當替衛生紙來擦拭下體。所以就算廁所裏沒有放衛生紙，也千萬別用面紙來檫陰部。

要千萬注意，陰部皮膚敏感的人會有不適反應，也會導致卵巢癌。

陳經理還說，他們本身懂得這些原理的人，自己家裏都少用面紙，儘量全面使用衛生紙。

... 放下 ...

每次看完一部偶像劇就會有很深的感觸。

昨晚我把《敗犬女王》‘趕’完了。當然，也哭紅了雙眼。發覺我開始很容易受感動。動不動就能哭得稀里嘩啦。眼淚好像水龍頭喔！

當中，有一幕女主角去訪問神經科醫生。問了一個問題。 （忘記是什麽了)... 只記得那醫生説道∶ 放下其實只需要一分鐘，不是嗎？

讓我不禁領悟這道理。

何必一直在意莫件人事物而對此耿耿於懷呢？很多時候，我們都不懂得取捨；不曉得放下的樂趣。不管是愛情或事業，我們都對它們那麽的執著。因此，背負這沉重的枷鎖使到自己痛苦不堪。

何不學著放下讓自己好過一點？

... outing with classmates ~ finally! ...

it's been a long time since i went KTV.. my wish is fulfilled tonight..

went to kallang k-box with a few of my classmates.. don't know what is really wrong.. everytime me and my class rep arranged something, definately will be cancelled and postpone to another day..

managed to get it going this time.. however, supposed to be about 9 of us, in the end? 5 of them couldn't make it last minute and left only 4 of us..

well, we still enjoyed ourselves and our class rep, bruce is the only thorn among the roses!!! carol joined us after the singing.. as it's still early, we adjourn to dempsy road, red dot for a drink.. as bruce's friend owned it and can get discount mah.. :P

nice ambience i must say.. we shared a lot of things and i must say our dear class rep is really one comical guy.. made us laughed the whole night..

it's been a while since i last drank (2 years or maybe longer??).. so couldn't really hold my drink even though we only ordered a tower of beer and shared.. concluded beer is still yucky to me..

furthermore, i was more concerned about road block that night so didn't really dare to drink mnore.. luckily i escaped.. haha..

anyway, i don't mind to go back to red dot again in future.. however, i shall have coffee or tea already.. the feeling of being caught is too scary..

... microwaving water - dangerous! ...

A 26-year old man decided to have a cup of coffee. He took a cup of water and put it in the microwave to heat it up (something that he had done numerous times before). I am not sure how long he set the timer for, but he wanted to bring the water to a boil.. When the timer shut the oven off, he removed the cup from the oven. As he looked into the cup, he noted that the water was not boiling, but suddenly the water in the cup 'blew up' into his face.

The cup remained intact until he threw it out of his hand, but all the water had flown out into his face due to the build up of energy. His whole face is blistered and he has 1st and 2nd degree burns to his face which may leave scarring. He also may have lost partial sight in his left eye.

While at the hospital, the doctor who was attending to him stated that this is a fairly common occurrence and water (alone) should never be heated in a microwave oven. If water is heated in this manner, something should be placed in the cup to diffuse the energy such as a wooden stir stick, tea bag, etc.., (nothing metal).

General Electric's Response:

Thanks for contacting us, I will be happy to assist you. The e-mail that you received is correct. Microwaved water and other liquids do not always bubble when they reach the boiling point. They can actually get superheated and not bubble at all. The superheated liquid will bubble up out of the cup when it is moved or when something like a spoon or tea bag is put into it.

To prevent this from happening and causing injury, do not heat any liquid for more than two minutes per cup. After heating, let the cup stand in the microwave for thirty seconds! before moving it or adding anything into it.

Here is what our local science teacher had to say on the matter: 'Thanks for the microwave warning. I have seen this happen before. It is caused by a phenomenon known as super heating. It can occur anytime water is heated and will particularly occur if the vessel that the water is heated in is new, or when heating a small amount of water (less than half a cup).

What happens is that the water heats faster than the vapor bubbles can form. If the cup is very new then it is unlikely to have small surface scratches inside it that provide a place for the bubbles to form. As the bubbles cannot form and release some of the heat has built up, the liquid does not boil, and the liquid continues to heat up well past its boiling point.

What then usually happens is that the liquid is bumped or jarred, which is just enough of a shock to cause the bubbles to rapidly form and expel the hot liquid. The rapid formation of bubbles is also why a carbonated beverage spews when opened after having been shaken.

... good one!! ...

A little rabbit happily running through the forest stumbles upon a giraffe rolling a Marijuana cigarette.

The rabbit looks at her and says, "Giraffe my friend, why do you do this? Think about your health. Come with me running through the forest, you'll see, you'll feel so much better!"

The giraffe looks at him, looks at the joint, tosses it and goes off running with the rabbit.

Then they come across an elephant doing Opium, so the rabbit again says, "Elephant my friend, why do you do this? Think about your health. Come running with us through the pretty forest, you'll see, you'll feel so good!"

The elephant looks at them, looks at his razor, mirror and all, and then tosses them and starts running with the rabbit and giraffe.

The three animals then come across a lion about to take a Heroin shot...

The rabbit says "Lion my friend, why do you do this? Think about your health! Come running with us through the sunny forest, you will feel so good!"

The lion looks at him, puts down his needle, and starts to beat the hell out of the little rabbit.

As the giraffe and elephant watch in horror, they look at him and ask, "Lion, why did you do this? He was merely trying to help us all!"

The lion answers...

... don't judge too quickly ...

in life, all of us always judge things too quickly..

are you one of them??

here's some example.. enjoy!

Romantic Dinner that becomes .... murder??? eating brownie or .... pooh??? electrocute the fly or .... patient???

... yoga ...

finished my yoga class in school just now.. wow! i must say it's something that is so interesting!!what we learnt is call hatha yoga..

they are the volunteers from the Nikam Guruji Yoga Kutir school (www.yoganikam.com) which the teacher founded this teaching about 50years ago.. in singapore, the first batch of students 'graduated' about 12 years already.. they have so far about 60-80 thousands of students and it's still growing..

well, we have about 35 participants (out of total 49 participants) tonight and should really give a round of applause to 2 guys who joined us!!

learnt 3 different postures and must tell you, it's not that easy as it seems!!

anyway, this will be a 9 weeks class.. so good luck to me!

... singapore open 2009 ...

went down about 11pm tonight to watch singapore open.. ya it's quite late but had the impression that 8.30pm MQ (qualifying squad) will be delayed about 3 hours mah..

in the end i realized i missed that squad.. luckily didn't missed the 10pm one.. by the time it started it's almost 12midnight already..

come to think of it, it's been a while since i went down to 'take part' in competition.. a year plus already??? anyway that's not the point..

don't quite like the atmosphere during major competition.. the intense pressure within the environment is unbearable at times.. everyone looked so stern.. one tiny mistake made (eg. not a strike) is like one's gettin cancer but yet can't die.. ok ok maybe this way of descrption a bit 'sala'.. however, i truly think at times competitve bowling really could kill someone.. :P

anyway, it's my holiday now so i'm quite free from now on till august.. so i'll be back to bowling soon!! :D

... maths is really not my cup of tea ...

i thought i prepared well.. still i'm wrong.. slept about 2am this morning.. woke up about 8am to go school to do last minute revision..

when i got the question paper, i was so confident that i could do it as they look similar compared to last year paper..

then, the amazing thing happen.. i only managed to finish 2 questions out of 7 of it.. the rest?? either i forgot the formula or i totally forgot how to do it!! i couldn't even finished my section b at all when i only need to attempt 2 questions which consists of 50%!!

i was already cursing and swearing myself.. if i could do it aloud, everyone will be staring at me then.. haha.. anyway, it's a failure.. colleagues said i'm too tired, not enough of rest that's why..

anyway, i'm still glad i didn't kill myself in the exam hall and pulled it through.. best of all (hooray! 3 cheers for myself) i don't have to face maths and statistics again.. EVER!!

... 早睡早起? ...

是我老了嗎？還是早睡早起是件好事？或者因爲日有所思；夜有所夢？但我沒做夢嘛。

昨晚十一點多就寢了，今早七點多就醒來。已經有幾次這樣的情況了。每次早睡就會早起。但沒像今天這麽誇張！死了咯！這樣下去我不是得晚睡才能晚起？

結果，又不能逼自己睡回籠只好起身。整個早上無所事事，真浪費！

... 最幸福的事 ...

何謂最幸福的事？ 每個人對幸福這囘事都有不同的見解。

有份穩當的工作？與傢人共度歡樂時光？還是為所愛的人做彼此喜歡的事？不管是甚麽理由或行爲，一丁點都能讓接受幸福者快樂一段時間。

幸福也許重值不重量。不管對方用了多少心思為你掏心陶肺，只要你覺得值得；那你就能感覺非常幸福。有人願意付出，就有人願意接受。

最近，我也感受到為彼此做的貼心事，竟能讓我滿足加依戀好久、好久。在別人眼中也許微不足道，可是我的眼裏卻難而可貴。

... car air-con ...

mrnot sure if its true, but still be precautious ba.. better safe than sorry!!

~~~~~~~~~~

Do not turn on A/C immediately as soon as you enter the car!

Please open the windows after you enter your car and do not turn ON the air-conditioning immediately. According to a research done, the car dashboard, sofa, air freshener emits Benzene, a Cancer causing toxin (carcinogen - take note of the heated plastic smell in your car). In addition to causing cancer, it poisons your bones, causes anemia, and reduces white blood cells. Prolonged exposure will cause Leukemia, increasing the risk of cancer may also cause miscarriage.

Acceptable Benzene level indoors is 50 mg per sq. ft. A car parked indoors with the windows closed will contain 400-800 mg of Benzene. If parked outdoors under the sun at a temperature above 60 degrees F (15 degrees C), the Benzene level goes up to 2000-4000 mg, 40 times the acceptable level... and the people inside the car will inevitably inhale an excess amount of the toxins.

It is recommended that you open the windows and door to give time for the interior to air out before you enter. Benzene is a toxin that affects your kidney and liver, and is very difficult for your body to expel this toxic stuff.

... 謊言 ...

甚麽時侯一套謊言能把傷害降到最低？天底下有不曾被拆穿的謊言嗎？是識破者不想把真相說出，唯恐後果可能無法收拾？還是另有其他原因？

但，欺騙就是欺騙不是嗎？根本不需要找藉口解釋當初的所作所爲是爲了甚麽原因。這能補償什麽嗎？或者完全不能償還之前所受的憤怒、傷心慾絕或失望。

你越想要用不容被識破的謊言掩飾一切；事實永遠就會擺在你眼前越讓你不知所措。

該發生的總會發生。

逃避只是一時；面對才是恰當的抉擇。

Record I

Patient A: "So how... this book not bad yah?"

Patient B: "Yah agree, excellent! Astounding work. No nonsense, sharp andconcise to the point. But there's a major flaw in this piece of art – too many character names to remember!!!"

Nurse: "Hey! Can the two of you put the telephone book back to the original place?"

Record II

A doctor asked a patient: "If I were to cut one of your ears off, what will happen to you?"

Patient: "Then I will not be able to hear..."

Doctor: "Hmm…that's normal... so if I were to cut your other ear off, what will happen then?"

Patient: "I will not be able to see..."

The doctor became nervous and asked: "Why would you not see then???"

Patient: "Because my spectacles will fall off..."

Record III

IMH has an old lady who wears black, carries a black umbrella and squats at the entrance to the IMH everyday without fail, rain or shine.

The doctor wanted to administer treatment for her but decided to understand her behavior first.

So, the doctor also wears black and carries a black umbrella; squatted besides her everyday. The days go by... the two of them squatted side-by-side without a single exchange of word.

After one solid month, the old lady finally broke the silence and asked the doctor: "Err...Excuse me! Are you also a mushroom?"

Record IV

A nurse saw a patient writing a letter. She got curious and went to take a peek. But the patient didn't wanna let her see.

Nurse (unable to contain her curiosity): "Who are you writing to?"

Patient: "I'm writing a letter to myself..."

Her curiosity grew and she thought to herself (Why would someone write a letter to himself?)

So she asked again: "So... what's written inside?"

Patient (got impatient): "You crazy ah? I haven't received the letter, how would I know??"

Record V

Two patients escape from the IMH. They climbed up a tree and one of them fell from the tree and started rolling on the ground.

After a while, the patient below shouted to the one on top: "Hey! How come you are not coming down yet?"

The patient on top replied: "No. no... I can't... I'm not ripe yet"

Record VI

One patient visited the doctor: "Doc... How? I think I'm a chicken since the day I was born..."

Doctor: "Wah! That’s very serious... Why do you only come and seek treatment now?"

Patient: "Because my family needs me to hatch the eggs..."

Record VII

One truck driver was doing his usual delivery to IMH.

He discovered a flat tyre when he was about to go home. He jacked up the truck and took the flat tyre down. When he was about to fix the spare tyre, he accidentally dropped all the bolts into the drain. As he can't fish the bolts out, he started to panic.

One patient happened to walk past and asked the driver what happened. The driver thought to himself, since there's nothing much he can do; he told the patient the whole incident.

The patient laughed at him and said "can't even fix such a simple problem... no wonder you are destined to be a truck driver..."

"Here’s what you can do, take one bolt each from the other 3 tyres and fix it onto this tyre. Then drive to the nearest workshop and replace the missing ones, easy as that"

The driver was very impressed and asked "You're so smart but why are you doing here at the IMH?"

Patient replied: "Hello, I stay here because I'm crazy not STUPID!"

... angels & demons ...

went to watch this movie written by dan brown last night.. a novel written by the author who brought us da vincci code too.. it's another great show i must say..

although i did not watched da vincci code previously, i believe angels & demons is the prelude of da vincci code?? or that's what i heard..

anyway, go watched it if you have not!!

... an old friend ...

bumped into an old friend yesterday.. we used to call her froggy.. can't remember how this nickname came about..

if not for that incident we had during our secondary days, we would have known each other for 25 years already!! wow! time flies!!

secondary school days were the happiest time during our life i guess.. at least to me.. never had any worries.. or even there are, it would be only tests and exams..

anyway, we didn't chatted at all, i just walked away quietly.. she's with her boy friend i guess.. i'm glad about this as she was a homosexual many years ago.. maybe sue is right, she's not going to be lesbian forever.. glad she found her love..

hope one day we would start to talk again..

... 灰色地帶 ...

漸漸覺得我有點不習慣這種“報告班長”的形式。

以前我們從來不像現在這樣；也從沒要求你得這麽做。

你曾幾何時養成這習慣？

該慶幸你開始懂得在乎還是恐懼你漸漸有所依賴？

我越不想被約束；越發現我已漸漸沉入情感的漩渦。

灰色地帶的感覺好矛盾；複雜的心情好無奈。

... 第一天 ...

今天，是你第一天上班。還適應吧！

午餐時，打給我與我聊了一會兒。後來，放工還見了片刻。

告訴我同事們的點滴；你是幾十個女生中唯一的猛將。有口福嘛！男人的夢想竟然被你遇到。哈哈!

也聼得出你喜歡這份工作。

而且你也有時間踢球了；也會有時間陪我嗎？:P

... nightmare ...

i had the weirdest dream ever last night.. should i even consider it a nightmare??

i dreamt i was in my room sleeping.. middle of the night i woke up but found myself totally 'mute'.. i tried talking, shouting but no voice was coming out from my mouth..

i remembered that, i was trying very hard to get my sis's attention as she's sleeping beside me (we're sharing room).. i used up all my strength to get it out but in vain..

i knew i needed desperately to ask my sis to pray for me (she's a christian).. only remember i was chatting the "阿弥陀佛" before this but not sure why..

then i suddenly woke up and so is my sis.. scary thing was, she actually heard me shouting and reckoned that was not my voice!! it's a voice that is a few pitch higher than my usual voice.. however, i assured her it's me.. and i was damn shocked.. not feeling scared nor frightened as i didn't had cold sweat at all.. which i should, i believed??

i needed to tell someone and called my xiaodi about it.. told me i think too much that's why..

my sis still prayed for me still.. and in order to find my inner peace back, i followed her to her church service then..

phew!! what a dream!!
