Salad Crave

All of sudden, it was salad for breakfast, salad for lunch and salad for dinner. All I was eating was salad salad salad and more salad. Hahaha I must be pretty crazy. Well, no harm to eat more vegetables right? The best part is that I did not really follow the salad recipe. I simply chucked whatever I had in fridge and guess what it taste just good (for me lah). Just to share the recipe if you guys want to try to.

Salad O Salad

• 1 medium sized Cucumber
• Few Salad leaves (the round type)
• 1 or 2 Tomatoes
• 3 slices of Chicken Ham
• 2 slices of Wholemeal Bread
• Salt & pepper for taste
• Olive oil (up to you if you like it)

Dice those tomatoes and cucumber. In non-stick pan, add bit of butter or oil, stir fry the
shredded chicken ham. For the wholemeal bread, toast it and cut it into cubes (or any way

you want it). Add all into a bowl mix with olive oil, pepper and salt. Wholah, you have you’re

salad for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Oh for the olive oil, I did not add as I m not a big fan of olive oil. But it taste just fine for me without olive oil.

I am not done with salads yet, after few days I got face slapped (this is what we say in Tamil for being ‘muak’ of the food) by meaty foods, so I decided to be a VEGAN again which reminded me of my friends used to scold me for being vegan all the time. Sorry guys!!

Back to salad’s story, so even though I was vegan I didn’t get over my salad cravings. One fine afternoon, my mom decided not to cook, so I decided to cook (give her break lah). And when I was digging the fridge… Guess what? I found all ingredients for salad AGAIN. So I thought of making myself a Vegetarian Salad for lunch. If you wondering what happen to my mum, she backed out she chooses rice over the salad. Here is the picture of it.

For this recipe I used cherry tomatoes (yum yum) and vegetarian chicken which is made of soya. The process is same as the above.

I really regret I did not choose to be chef (so I can do more salads).

Saturday Night Fever!

My title may sound fun but the truth is I had a bad cold fever last Saturday. Sneezing, running nose and killer sore throat is more to annoying kind of sick rather than painful. I am the type who does not like to go consult a doctor. I will try to cure all by myself and be the doctor. Well I did. I got this influence from my grandma. Whenever we (my brother and I) are sick or hurt ourselves by doing some stunts, she’ll run to a small bush in front her house and grab some leaves and start to do medicine from it. I have got to say it really works actually. It was some of the home remedies that her mother taught her and people from those days used before panadols (bad for health actually) and antibiotics were created to fight the virus. They say that you can’t cure flu and it will go away on its own but you can do something to reduce it though. Here are some successful homes remedies that made me fever free.



I will definitely start with helpful home remedies for annoying sore throats because sore throats always shows the early sign of getting fever. You can use cinnamon (I use this method) to cure it.

• What you have to do is take a teaspoon of cinnamon powder , pinch of pepper, one table spoon of honey and glass of water. Boiled it together and drink it. Actually the drink taste pretty good. This is for an early stage of sore throat.




• Let say that remedy did not really helped you then you can try the second remedy for sore throat which is add all together lime juice, pinch of pepper and tablespoon of honey.

• I have never tried this but some other elders say that holy basil leaves (Indians call it ‘thulasi’) helps to relieve annoying sore throat. Boil water and few of the leaves and you can either drink it or gargle with it. Below is the picture of holy basil:-

Then there is cold fever and cough left, as for this you can use few methods as well. As for cough, I do not like to drink cough medicine because it makes you drowsy so usually I will rather cough than drinking ‘drug’ (ha-ha).

• A very good way of healing cough is by boiling water with aniseed (some call starseed;below is the pic) and pour it in a teabag. And drink it while it’s hot. It taste just like cough syrup but the only thing is that it does not make you drowsy (or being drugged =P) and you feel relieved.

• One of the oldest methods of healing flu is by drinking garlic soup. But usually my mum will just make an empty porridge with only few garlic cloves which also quite good. I read in an article saying that, garlic contains antiseptic which help to fight the virus. Ginger also another good remedy for flu as it act as brother for garlic.

As for me, whenever I get flu I will just try to eat more oranges which mean more vitamins C and it really helped. Be caution, not all can take oranges when they are having flu as for some people it might make the flu even worse. But as for me it’s all clear and quite good.
This is just some of the home remedies that I know and I used. There is a lot more available out there. Applying home remedies is better than taking pills (as in for me). I am not sure about others but you can give it a try no harm (unless you have any allergic to any of those spices)

TV sequences!

You see I m currently jobless (not proud it but I will get one eventually) so most of the time I m free unless end of month I busy preparing some documents, other than that I free. So, how I fill my free time? TV series will be the answer. Even when I was in studying, well I got to say UTP’s download is heaven (goshh I miss it!!!) I downloaded TV series, movies and songs like crazy. B the W, few weeks back I went to UTP again to download (ha-ha).
So if you curious which TV series I m in, well here is the list (since I m free I’ll write some review too..lol):-

• America’s Next Top Model

This would be one of my over-the-top favorite shows. I’m a fan of the show since season 1 and sad to say that all my favorite’s never actually won. But if I have to pick favorite winner will be Naima (cycle 4), CariDee (cycle 7) and Jaslene (cycle 8) only. For this cycle,London was my favorite and now she is out. So for favorite non-winner will be Joanie (the best), Sam, Chantal, Anya, Katarzyna (second the best), Janet. Currently season 12 is airing, got to say is the same old thing but the girls are not so interesting. I like Jessica but she got booted out second. Celia & Fo has great picture. The rest so-so la except for Sandra & Thalia (serve you right biatch). Allison with her big scary eyes and her freak attitude (is funny though ... lol). I don’t care who wins this cycle, the girls do not really excite me.

• Privileged

Well, I don’t know why they are on break now. The last episode was 18 and they stopped and I really hope they would not stop it forever as same as lipstick jungle (which I also watch and it’s gone forever after two seasons only.) I like the both of the show though lots of people not really tuning to see it. I want to see (badly) how WILL will react to Megan’s new ‘one night stand’ (which I think will be in the show quite some time) partner (ha-ha).

• Heroes

The hunting is still on. I do not where season 3 will end to but I m just watching somehow. They discovering lot’s of new powers. I try not reading the spoiler. Lol!

• Supernatural

Interesting as ever (mostly because of Dean). Well nothing spooky about it but I’m kind of interested with Sam’s power mystery and the angel hunk deal with dean. I will just tune in. If they kill Dean again then I’ll kill the show.

• How I met your Mother

The best comedy show I have seen, Barney is simply the best. Seriously, I love him. The show would just die without him! But I do not know until which season where Ted will finally meet his wife and mother of his kid. LOL. I m predicting it will Robin (ke-ke) though he refer her as aunt robin to his kids.

• Chuck

This show is the same producer as The O.C but he did much better in chuck. This is show is funny and interesting though chuck is annoying but you should watch his spy skills. And season 2 is kind of getting interesting as he finally found his dad and also found ORION (the guy who created intersect at the first place).

• Dollhouse

This is a new show that I m tuning in. Nice one. It is about this girl who is brought to a dollhouse where they delete all her memories and program here to whoever the client (they prefer call them engagement) wants. Well there is some kind of cops who trying find out about this house. Will see where the show is going.

• Ugly Betty

Season 3 is a so-so one. Bit boring and I do not know when the hell she going transform at least a bit. I used grumble when I was watching the Spanish version la soy Betty la fea. But I think US version is even worst and taking forever for her to change. Guess just have to wait.

• Gossip Girl

Yes, I m still watching it to pass my time even though is super frustrating to watch all the spoil brats drinking champagne when they claim themselves as ‘high school’ and happily sleeping with each other.

• 90210

Same goes as GG but slightly better cause of Silver (bit lively). The rest I just hate esp. annie, she is just overreacting. If you wondering why I m still tuning in. Obviously is because of Liam (Matt Lanter), Naomi’s new crush. Haha~

Samantha Who, Criminal Minds, CSI, Lipstick Jungle, Grey’s Anatomy, Brothers&Sisters, House are some of other TV series that I watch. I thought joining the critics for the show, too bad I do not have a qualified degree. =P

Going Green ~

28th March 2009 was the remark of our responsibility to save our tiny part of the world by switching off lights in our homes for an hour. Well, I did my part for half an hour (not going to lie) but at least I did something. I had to switch it on back as my mum was shouting (ha-ha) fearing of thieves nowadays (can’t really blame her it’s getting worse near my residence area). But what I see is that most the people do not really care about it and it’s sad. You do not have to do something big or drastic but just start small and simple things by switching off the lights. Or you can do big just as what like what Leonardo D’caprio (etc buying Hybrid cars and doing documentary) did if you have all the ka-ching and fame. I really admire him for that. I used to not bother or care about it but the environmental changes and all the weird sickness had really wake me up from a deep hell.

Think how much we contribute to global warming without realizing (or by ignoring it). Ok let’s do some simple test:

• How often do you clean your fan?
• How many times have you done gardening?
• Have you ever planted a tree in a year?
• How many plastic do you use a day?
• How many times have you recycled your garbage?
• How long does you a/c will be on?

Honestly, it’s not like I’m doing all these above things. But I did most of it. I clean my fans often and I do not on a/c. Fans blade that covered in dirt and dust require more power to spin. I rarely do gardening but I do plant tree if I have more space and will go up against if someone wants to cut down a tree. You can see greedy contractors eating up the entire hill to build houses. I think it would good if they replant each and every tree that they have chopped down.
What I am really trying to convey here is that, we can start from doing small and simple things in saving our world. It still counts. People do not seem to understand this. Like the other day, when I was explaining to “some people” on energy saving and turning off the light. They did not even bother about it. Why can’t people understand that by doing this is actually not for others sake but it is for themselves? Anyway we still have some time left to make a difference. I will do my part and I hope other will to. Below is some interesting tactics that I do and maybe you can try it as well.

Do you know that the sprays that we used to clean windows contain chemicals which are washed down to drain and pollute our water? Well there is a way you can undo this by using the old newspapers to wipe the mirror and windows. Newspaper ink absorbs dirt and shines glass without harming the environment.

I do not know if you have realized toilet-cleaners use this brown color multi-purpose cleaner to wash bathrooms. As for me, I have seen cleaners from my university hostel used to use this to clean. The multi-purpose cleaner is not a chemical product instead it is all-natural, environment-friendly, non-toxic and best of it is made from kitchen scrap. I actually discovered this from an article published in The Star and way to go, it is good.

Well, it is called Garbage Enzyme and guess what you can do it on your own. Here are the tips (all thanks to the article):-

• Use ratio of 1:3:10 of sugar, vegetable/fruits dregs (residue) and water.
• For example: -
  1 kg of sugar,
  3 kg of vegetable/fruits dregs and
  10 liters water.
• For sugar component, use jaggery (gula merah) or molasses.
• For fresh-smelling enzymes add oranges or lemon peels or pandan leaves.
• Fruits wastes are better than vegetables.
• Use an air-tight plastic container to allow for expansion. Do not use glass or metal containers.
• Place the container in a cool, dry and well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight.
• Open the container daily in the first month to release gasses.
• If you have not gathered enough kitchen waste, you may fill the container gradually.
• The 3 month fermentation process starts with the last batch of kitchen waste. Push the floating garbage downward every once in awhile.
• The enzyme liquid should be in dark brown color. If it is blackish, add the same amount of sugar to start the fermentation process again.
• Ignore any white, black or brown layer that forms on the surface of the mixture. This is just yeast. If the container is not airtight, maggot and flies may appear. (not nice)
• After 3 months, filter the fermented liquid through an old t-shirts or sieve. Use the residues in your new batch of enzymes or as fertilizer.
• Here the best part, the enzyme never expire and must be diluted with water before using it. What a cheap and effective way!

This garbage enzyme sure does good things as it can help your plant to bloom, remove all the dirt from floor, kitchen toilets and the enzyme can help you to clean drainage pipes which will reduce smelliness ,flies and dirty b**** cockroaches. (Hate ‘em a lot esp. the flying ones.) And best of all, we are not contributing chemical to our rivers. See you can contribute something at the same time benefits you.

IT’S TIME TO ACT. DO SOMETHING FOR YOURSELF AND FOR OUR COMING GENERATIONS.

New year and still jobless

This my first post for year 2009. Well i hope all the best or good things will happen this year. first of all, to get a job. Come on i need money ($____$) ~

All this while, I thought I had a good opportunity of getting jobs since I was in good university, my result was not that bad. But its really really tough out there to get a job. My brother graduated few months back and while he was jobless at that time I was keep insisting him to get a job n I used to complain to my mom saying that he is just wasting time and not looking for any job but I was wrong . now I really understand how he felt. I mean I did learn dis in corporate ethics. Kantian theory, put ur self into other people shoe. We really need to use this theory in our daily life. Well I guess I need to move on.

I want to get a good job since my family is really having high hope n it is pressure for me but I have my own goal too which is to get a good job. I do have to say I m looking for company that is well known . I noe I noe .. u all thinking I m some kind bitchy snob but trust me lotsa situation that happened to me putting me into this position. Sometimes I jus hate to be in this game but it just that some peoples tongue are way toooooo delicate they just do not realize what the f*** they are pouring out of their mouth. For the record, whatever I have achieved it is because of my own bloody hardwork. I din use any shit magic to make it all happen. Just like my mother alwiz say believe in GOD . He is the powerful one. I just believed in GOD which brings me to this stake.

These few days was disaster for me I was really really down. Just everytime I hear any of my friends already have a job I feel insecure and sad. I m happy for them but it just that I can’t help feel that way too. Come on I m human right. i have feelings too eventhough usually get ignored . hahha ~

-peace out-

~ peace out ~ (or shud i say -XOXO-)

some things does not really exist. its just a lie !!!

sometime it's just sad when you think of friends who used u to get something. instead getting angry you get more sad. well lemme say something , i find it as norm of life where friends is not like it used to be we they will even die for you (to the extend laa..). nowadays friends treat another friend like piece of trash or maybe better like a recycle bottle. use it and reuse it n den throw it away when it get dirty. i m so sick n fed up of thinking that i ll get some friends who is always there for u. just sick of it.. if i have to give tips regarding friendship that would as below which:

is that be fake just like how they are (so u ll get more closer o each other)

is to use them like how they use u (so u can be feel the love of the friendship)

and put a fake happiness when dey r happy (so that they won noe ur burning jealousy)

now i understand how the world friendship works. i feel i just wasting my time thinking too much i guess and well this might be another waste also but still just want to say whatever i have got to say. life is just a passing clouds and whatever that passed me it is just a dark ugly side of cloud and i will appreciate some of the clouds which was bright. being all happy outside doesnt mean happy inside . there is still big wounded scar that need to be fixed.

lemme apologize in advance, i do not mean to hurt anyone who is reading this but its just that i wanted to say things out and maybe meant for someone (i tink would not be able read it) but just i m sorry for whoever who appreciate friendship and have a great friends too. . :(
