:: Just My Cup of Tea ::



So I was told that drinking too much of tea bad for your health. The thing is I gotta have tea at least once a day and not having it will make my life – dull.  Its like all work and no play for Jill.  Just like to those coffee bugs.

So this is what I found through my reads -  It contains Tanine, a toxic element that disturbs the digestion process as the secretion of juices is affected by it. Tanine affects the water content in the body, as a result of which the skin becomes brittle and rough.

It contains caffeine, which is detrimental to health. It affects the nervous system and keeps a person awake at night (I didnt know that, I thought tea has calming effect). It can also raise blood pressure. Excessive caffeine can also cause poor concentration, irritability and nervousness.  I totally agree on the poor concentration part.  

Those who are predisposed to frequent attacks of heartburn and stomach ulcers should avoid too much of green tea. It can aggravate the condition.

Just like coffee it's addictive.

It is! And I’m an addict!  Truly deeply do.

p/s:  I haven't had my tea for two days now.

:: This Change is Inevitable ::

I was looking for some cool backgrounds for the blog when I found this.  Fell in love with the colors and changed the background again.  Its kinda cool for my personality I suppose, with lotsa dots.  

Thank God for people like them that create awesome templates for lazy and useless people like me. :D

And this one is for you Andrea since you complained sakit mata :P

:: Things you dont know wont harm you ::

Very true indeed.

I cant sleep.  Obviously as i never blogged at this odd hour.

Earlier today I was at the hospital spent my time at the PCU.  It never bothered me to find out the meaning of PCU, really.  I walked passed that ward many times before but I never asked anybody that I know that do know what PCU is.  And today I did.

Palliative Care Unit.  I was there yesterday too.  Seeing a patient with testicular carcinoma.  Yeah okay, I know what testicular is but carcinoma is really Greek to me.  And P in PCU stands for palliative - how could i have missed that? The ward has like lots of beds and even has extension beds next to each other.  Imagine - the number of dying people is enormous. 

He's a very cooperative kid.  A 19 year old.  And only has 6 months max to live.  The cancer I was told later has spread to his lung.  And stupid me thought it was just like hernia or something.  I was with him talking and sharing thoughts and laughing at the book he was reading (a malay novel - cheesy stuff) and little do I know he only has few months to live. 

After maghrib prayer, I didnt realize that I cried on the prayer mat.  Prayed to God, if He is to take his life, please make it painless.  

And now I cant sleep and his face is haunting my awake mind.  As I'm blogging this out,  I have tears in my eyes. 

I do wish I have a power to heal.

And now I know why I'm not a doctor.

:: Guilty [The Wedding Planner's Version] ::

I’ve decided to come clean.  Well, I been having this discussion with Muche, not that he advised me to but its because I wanted to.  I feel guilty about the whole thing.  

The wedding on February 2011,  its not gonna be mine.  Its my baby bro – Jed's.  Its gonna be his wedding and I’m just the wedding planner.  Jed is still in Leeds.  He’ll only be back early January or the earliest end of this month.  So basically I’m doing all his stuff for the wedding.  From A-Z.  And when I wrote that his guests will not be as many as mine was because he has no friend here and most of the attendee would be my friends.  

I wanted to go on writing about the wedding plan as I was having so much fun, but I don’t feel good about it anymore-  I feel soooooo guilty especially the happy feelings you guys have shared with me sampai ada orang nak shut off his blog pun ada :P (okay me on my perasan mode)

There you go chickadees!!!

Not that I lied in my two previous posts - it was just an omission of truth.  I’m sorry peeps.

Its not gonna be any wedding for me as I told my mom – Imma remain celibate.  Heheh!!! 

I’m sorry again, if there’s any way I could make it up to you guys, I would.
