Organic Parade

With the current economic situation not showing any signs of improving, many of my friends are cashing in their term life insurance. They cannot afford to meet up with their monthly commitments anymore. Me, i cut mine off long long ago as i find that having it is more of a burden to me than anything else. I only need a very basic medical insurance coverage, that’s it. What about you? Will you continue to make your term life insurance repayment even though you find it hard to make ends meet? Will you continue to slave for your insurance company?

Each time when my mind is numb from thinking too much, i’ll go to the foodcourt for a breath of fresh air with my hubby. Both of us enjoy drinking beer there as we can watch football on the big screen in the open air. Well, if it rains, then we’ll have to make do with the small television sets. Talking of football, you may want to check out the football web-tv channel, www.partofthegame.tv, that Carlsberg launched recently. Hubby loves it very much. Whenever we cant go out, he’ll be at the site, lol. Bet you’ll enjoy it just as much as my hubby does. Check it out, ya.

After the itch has subside, next is how to get rid of bite marks from scabies. It’s tough. The spots and marks are all over the body. Some are still raw, red and blister-like. Some have dried up. But i just hate the sight of having so many of those marks. I cant even cover them up with my dark colored panty hose. Bad, huh.

I now have to wear long sleeve shirts just so to cover those bite marks. If not, people will start thinking that i’m walking around with some sort of disease. Sigh…. how to explain to them that those are scabies bite marks. Not that they know how to get rid of scabies bite marks. Or worse, some even ask me what’s scabies, DAMN!!!!

Hubby asked me this morning what comes to mind as far as Brazil is concerned. Me, when it comes to Brazil, i can only think of two things. First, it’s Ronaldo. Second, Brazilian Wax, LOL!!! He’s actually asking me for my opinion on which Brazil vacation packages is better.

Okay, if he’s taking me there, i think i’ll need to schedule an appointment with my beautician for a Brazilian Wax session. If it’s for his year end company trip, then by all means, leave me out. All they want to do is go watch football. Hmmmm….. you planning a holiday this year end? Been to Brazil before? You can go check out the Brazil vacation packages here.

When i bought my Sony LCD TV, the first thing i asked the salesman was how to connect my laptop to it. I saw that it has two HDMI ports and wondered if i need to buy a HDMI cable just so that i can use my Sony LCD TV as a monitor or not.I’ve been wanting to do that for a long time, lol.

He told me i dont need to unless my laptop has a HDMI port as well. He suggested that i buy the right cable from a computer shop as they dont carry computer related cables. I did as told and VOILA!!! I’m now blogging from the comfort of my bed using a wireless keyboard and mouse. HAPPY!!!.

Just where is my external hard drive when i need it most? I remember keeping it inside the drawer but it’s no where to be seen now. I have lots of photos in there. Photos i cant bear to lose. This is what happens when today’s external hard drives comes in such slim designs. So slim that i cant even see it anywhere. Hubby’s havent seen it either. Now, where can it be? Gotta turn the room upside down again. My memory is getting from bad to worse. Tine i take some supplements to boost my memory. Yerrrrr…… if i cant find it, then i’ve got no choice but to buy another hard drive for my backups.

I bought a new Wii game for my kid recently. It’s some kinda fishing game. In a way, it’s quite like real fishing as you have to toss the WiiMote just like you would a real fishing rod. It’s fun to see how my kid laughs when he successfully catches a sea bass. Oh, there are many different kinds of fish for him to catch, and lots of locations too. From ponds to deep sea fishing.

My Grandpa loves to go fishing when he was young. He’s no longer with us but each time i go back to my Grandma’s house, i can still see his photographs lined up on the wall. My Grandma doesnt like to fish as she says the rocking motion makes her sick. So, my Grandpa only goes fishing with his friends.

According to him, it takes a lot of patience to fish. It’s therapeutic as he gets to relax his mind when he waits for fish to bite. I’ve not been to a fishing trip before but i do have friends who have. They recommend that i check out Key West Fishing when i want to plan a fishing trip next time.If you are interested, you may want to check the site out too.

You heard me right. The whole Internet is abuzz today by the Morning Banana Diet. You can read all about the Morning Banana Diet almost everywhere like social networks, blogs and forums. Everybody is talking and asking questions about the Morning Banana Diet. Me, i’d say it’s nothing but a SCAM.

For a health conscious person like me, dont tell me i can lose weight just by eating a banana for breakfast with a glass of water. This is not the end of it. The Morning Banana Diet claims that you can lose weight even if you continue eating lots of other foods throughout the day…. HUH??? *scam scam scam*

Check out what The Telegraph has to say about the Morning Banana Diet:

The soaring popularity of the banana has resulted in sales rising by as much as 70 per cent in the past week in some supermarkets, prompting prices to increase and importers to purchase more of the fruit.
“It’s the first time bananas have been quite so scarce,” a spokesman for Dole Japan Company, the largest banana importer in the country, told Japanese media. The trend for eating bananas recently gathered pace following a string of television programmes proclaiming the success of the banana diet.

As a result, sales of bananas at Life Corp, a major supermarket chain, reportedly increased 70 per cent last week while a department store in central Osaka also reported August sales up 50 per cent from last year and regularly selling out by early afternoon.

GIMME A BREAK!!!! Get the Morning Banana Diet out of your head and go back to leading a healthy life with a well balanced diet and regular exercise. There’s no short cut to losing weight. But with discipline, your ideal weight can be achieved. And yes, organic food is still the best choice for weight loss as far as health is concerned.

I ran out of organic cereal and had to head over to grab a few packets from the organic store this noon. My two year old only eats that. He’s quite a picky eater and seldom tries new tastes. Oh well, if he likes the organic cereal, i’d better go make sure i have plenty in the kitchen. He takes one sachet before he goes to daycare and another before bedtime.

The recent increase in fuel prices a couple of months back have caused many organic goods to go up in price. Thought the price of the organic cereal which i bought did not changed, it’s contents certainly did. It’s down by a whopping 25%. Used to contain 16 sachets in a packet. Now, it only has 12 in it. Even though our Government have reduced the priced of fuel a few times, i dont see suppliers nor retailers lowering their prices.

My cousin was also ranting to me about how much more he had to pay when he went to the health store to buy some supplements. He works out a the gym and takes a lot of supplements. He told me a friend of his recommended he buy his BSN Supplements (FitFuel.com) online instead as it’s way cheaper. I agree with that. I’m all for online shopping. Saves me lots of time and money as i always get better deals online. If you need to get some good health supplements online, you may want to check the link out.

The thing with being a multiple credit card holder is that i do get a lot of annoying phonecalls from telemarketers. All they want is try to push me some of their company’s latest health insurance package. If i’m in a bad mood, i may give them a piece of my mind. If not, i may just leave the phone on the table until they hang up. But even if i’m in a good mood, i dont like to entertain telemarketers. I cant get my phone number off their list, so what i can do is tell them i’m not interested in whatever they have to offer me. What about you. Do you buy anything from telemarketers?
