Healthy Mind, Body & Spirit

Got this recipe from the group I subscribed. Has yet to try it but… feel free to play with it…

1 cup olive oil (or oil of your choice)
1 room-temperature egg (remove the embryo)
1 tsp vinegar
1 tsp lemon juice
1/4 cup honey
a few drops essential oil (I like Rosemary and Clary Sage or coconut oil and amla oil)

Blend it all together until it becomes thick and creamy. Apply it on dry hair (I usually oil my hair with coconut oil the night before I wash, so I put it on oiled hair), wrap your head in plastic wrap/shower cap and a towel, and let it sit for an hour or so. Wash and condition as usual, and your hair will be soft as silk.

Found this great software from Download.Com.

It’s called World Wind. You can look at any places on earth through NASA satellite images.

Here is an image of my hometown Bukit Rambai, with the surrounding area. The beach is Klebang beach, with Tanjong Kling area. With the program, I can zoom in to my hometown, although the image may not be so clear.

Now I don’t have to buy any more maps, but can just see the real area with this program.

Now where is this Nagaland where my ISLT roommate lives? Who knows I might even see his face with this program. hehehe.

For single mom…

I found this from the net. Interesting.

Question: I’m a single mom. How do I teach my son to pee standing up?

Answer: Actually, it’s not that important to teach boys to urinate standing up in the first place. Little boys have a small penis that usually points almost straight forward. When you teach them to urinate standing up, they’ll often pee on the back of the toilet or miss the bowl completely. And if your son should get distracted, perhaps by someone calling out his name (probably not knowing that he’s in the bathroom), he may turn, and then his urine will end up, at best, on the floor and at worst, in the bathtub or wastebasket, or on the wall. It’s better to teach him to urinate sitting down (like you do). Later on you’ll be able to teach him to urinate standing up in about a day.

I read that the best way to loose those stubborn fat fast is to do cardio (30 min minimum) right when you wake up. Here’s the rational. When you just wake up, your tummy is empty right? When you do exercise, your body will search for energy to use. When it finds nothing in your stomach, it will go directly to your fat storage for energy and the fat will burn up so fast!

I will definitely try this but if you are in a hurry to go to work, this is not so practical unless you wake up earlier.

“Look,” he said, “if you agree never to court a woman, flirt with a girl or marry, I’ll help you win.”

“Done,” shouted the young golfer. The leprechaun was very pleased with conniving ways, and chuckled merrily.

When the golfer was in the clubhouse being praised by the other members, the leprechaun popped up on the shelf of the locker. “Hey,” said the little elf, “I have to have your name for my records. What is it?”

“Father Murphy,” grinned the golfer as he adjusted his Roman collar.

Words have the power to give life or death. Words therefore must be used carefully and in all instance should be to give life. All of use are growing older by the day and going nearer towards death. Use words then to give life and delay that process of death.

How many of us take the effort to think first before we say some words to others? Words once spoken can never be retracted. Be careful then of the words you want to say to others.

I always wanted to journal my life with words. Now, I pray that I’ll will be consistent in doing so in this blog.
