Getting sick of getting sick
I hate getting sick, despite what I understand in why do we get sick. I always feel that time getting sick is time wasted. And I would rather get sick on a weekday than on a weekend. A weekday, I can get a doctor’s certification and I don’t have to go to work. On a [...]
Tooth adoption
I don’t like going to the dentist. I’m not sure if anyone does. But for the very first time, I was very happy to be at the dentist, coming out from the dental procedure beaming with my new adopted tooth.
I lost a tooth to food. It’s unreal how much junk I stuff myself
Tired from running but it’s all worth it!
I have been trying to clock more distance for the Nike Charity Run. I’m glad to say that I’ve met my own target of running at least 40km for the charity. That’s worth $200! I’ll try to do a bit more before December 5th. I really don’t know how someone can actually clock close to [...]
Heal where it’s most painful
Have you had an injury but you just can’t pinpoint where the pain is? You know it hurts, but you just don’t know where it hurts. And if you don’t know where it hurts, you don’t know the source, and if you don’t know the source, you can’t fully heal the injury.
From my basketball days, [...]
A whole day of hiccups
Chinese New Year brings with it lots of yummy food. Due to commercialisation, you can actually get these food any time of the year, not just during the festive period, but there is just this little bit more temptation during the festive season to try out the food. As I hop from one house to [...]
Get instant muscles!
Get instant hard muscles. Get results in 10 days. Eliminate the flab. Get the six packs. Get it in steel hard form. No effort necessary. Get results without even trying. Just drink / eat this.
The first thought to my mind on reading such a pamphlet - what do I do with all those muscles? What [...]
Lunch with a vampire
An unusual lunch time for me, instead of heading out to feed myself first, I went out to feed others instead - with a little deposit into the blood bank.
Blood donation, you either do it or you don’t. Those who do it do it for a variety of reasons - feel good factor, another time [...]
Why do we get sick?
Sickness, it shuts down your system, stops you from doing what you can potentially be doing, stops you from having fun. Can it tell us anymore about ourselves?
Just park further
I’ve recently been quite wary of buffet style food offerings (it’s about food again!). With the “eat only what you need” mantra in my mind, buffet style seems to go against the very grain of that mantra. It encourages eating a lot, and you don’t care what you eat, just so you eat a lot, [...]
Eat slowly!
I’ve been in Malaysia/Singapore almost 3 weeks having moved from Scotland. Spent most of the first 2 weeks recovering from fever and indigestion. It’s like the climate here is rejecting me! Trying to flush me out of the system… Of course, I fought back, using a method inspired by Mahatma Ghandi - abstaining from food. [...]
