Coke it

July 7, 2007

Few days ago I was having lunch with my colleagues at the restaurant nearby and we were talking about Coca-cola.

Miss Kiyo : Do you know that Coke-Can can stand at a certain water level inside it?

Me : LOL. Ya right !!

Kiyo : You don’t trust me I show you, wanna bet ??

Me : Bet ma bet lah, scared you ah..

Kiyo : OK if I proof to you, you buy me 1 pack of Cokes.

Me : Buy ma buy lah.. I got money to buy! Show me la.. if not you buy me back.

(….) After 1-2 minutes of adding in some water into the can..

Me : wah seh…


Really can stand…

Kiyo : Lai lai.. 1 pack of Cokes.. must gentlemen, promised already.

Me : How you did it ??

Kiyo : Nolah, last time I too free, nothing to do then try it for fun. Didn’t know it really can stand..

-.- To all the Coke fans out there, you guys must hail Kiyo as Queen of Coke already.

What to Eat & What to Avoid

June 13, 2007

So busy lately I don’t even have time to troll some blogs. I don’t even have time to enjoy food out there.

I can only admire those posts about food from other blogs like monkeywong’s, hoongkiat’s, nastasshea’s, Gina’s .. & even Jennyhow also talked about food & gaining weight lately…

FOOD FOOD FOOD.. I want more FOOD !!

But do you know, choosing the wrong food will affect your mood easily?
Here are some tips !!

If you feel angry:
Avoid: Sugar foods.
Eat: Complex carbohydrates like whole-grain bread and cereals, potatoes, brown rice and pasta.

If you feel anxious:
Avoid: Alcohol, cake, chocolate, coffee and ice cream.
Eat: Fresh fruit, small amounts of dried fruit, pasta (plain, with low-fat tomato sauce), whole-grain bread, baked potato and rice.

If you feel bored:
Avoid: High-carbohydrate foods like bread, cake, cookies and pasta.
Eat: High-protein foods like grilled tuna fillet, flaked tuna fish or chicken with low-fat mayo.

If you feel depressed:
Avoid: Bread, cake, ice cream, pastries.
Eat: Whole-grain foods like cereal, pasta, rice and beans.

If you feel happy:
Avoid: Fatty foods, chocolate, alcohol.
Eat: Healthful foods of all kinds (just don’t overdo it).

Want to change your mood?
Angry?
Eat a grapefruit! It’s rich in pectin, a soluble fibre that lowers blood cholesterol and reverses the negative effects anger has on the body.

Need to be more mentally alert?
Reach for an apple. It contains lots of boron, which helps boost mental alertness.

Depressed?
Try a bowl of plain rice, a low-fat, no-cholesterol complex carbohydrate full of selenium, which may ward off depression.

Tired and depressed?
Grab a handful of raisins, rich in iron.

Lethargic?
Lean towards lentils, a good source of iron.
