Health tips experience
I may want to write in 'rojak' language as most of the practices are by us, Asian. However it is good to share our traditional remedies, treatments and 'pantang' with others...
Hmmm...actually I am not the expert in this...however they are all my mak's (my mom)traditional 'rules' and 'regulations' during confinement. As we all know the 'pantang' after birth will be like 44 days, about 1 and 1/2 months and for career moms, we will be getting 2 months maternity leave. But for me my 'pantang' goes up to 100 days...
Waduh!! if I skip, mak's mouth will never stop grumble, mumble and telling me my body will be this...my skin will be that...my face will look older than my age... You know how tired you will be when you are at this age to be scolded like you are a little girl. But Thank you mak!, I love you...huhuhuhu... if not... I'll be like 'tong drum'.
I've got my three kids through ceasarian and my mak will usually be taking care of me and new born baby my during the confinement period. Once the hospital discharged me... the 'pantang' starts for me and the baby. The first 1 month, it was usually like in the 'prison'... So my mak will be incharged...
I'll be usually probihited to go out of the house except for hospital check ups. In the morning until late afternoon, my hands and legs will be covered with param and my forehead will be covered with pilis...they are traditional 'powder' which you better dont asked me the ingredients... The smell...wow so...traditionally 'bitter'...
My abs and stomach will be tight with special corset which made from a long cloth and before i wear it, i have to put some jamu mixed with lime to apply on my stomach... Jangan tanya how the smell...huhuhu...I also have to wear socks and sweather even the day was so hot outside and I was sweating like so much! Do not take off your sweater nor your socks - warned my mak!!!! huhuhu
Early in the morning, usually I took jamu (traditional herbs) and we used to called it 'jamu rapat!'...hehehehe), milk and a piece of plain bread. Lunch time the menu will always be rice porridge with vegetables...jangan yang sejuk-sejuk but most of the time will be spinach, cabbage or kailan (produce more milk for breastfeeding), fish and haruans boiled (yuck!) and more fish and once a while meat but only boiled and soup menu...NO CHICKEN or EGG AND NO SEAFOODS...ONLY FISHES!!!! Nanti gatal and your wounds won't dry that fast plus the scar will obviously seen. In the evening the same menu and after that consume my jamu..lots of them and drink lots of plain warm water. Warm only huh...my mom kept on reminding....love you so much mak!!!!
That was not all, I was prohibited to take bath for 1 week then after that, only 1 time per day with only warm water until 1 month. Usually I would continue my jamu as my supplements for at least 3 months, no cold water, no chicken and egg for 3 months too or at most 100 days. I would have to follow my mak pantang rules in my meals for the most 100 days. She asked me to maintain my jamu and meals if possible 4-5 months to maintain ideal weight and inner healing.
She told me the reasons behind all these rules will be seen immediate after my pantang and also later when I am getting much more older and will still maintain youthful skin and looks..Wah!
She did told me, the param and pilis were to make sure 'tak masuk angin', so our body would not easily feels aching here and there. The socks and sweater to make sure our body remains warm and those blood veins and whatevet veins lah..(urat-urat) won't appear on your skin espacially legs.
Vegetables and fish are the best meals for diet. Warm water is the best drink, milk will best for our bones for calcium absorbance, jamu is to maintain the inner healing of our body and to keep youthful looking skin and body figures. The special corset is to reduce the the bulging stomach after birth as well the jamu put on stomach is for reducing the strech mark.
Hmmm...I truly believe the 'pantang' rules paid off. Because everytime after my child delivery, I will reduce my weight much more faster and slimmer before I was pregnant. I also do not have much problem about aching here and there, I actually did not see any blood veins on my legs...Alhamdullillah...
I do not have much problems on major freckles, pimples and major wrinkles yet...and I also do not have major hair fall problem after delivery. Alhamdullillah...Ya Allah...all I want is for me to be healthy.... However, after 5 months and above...usually my problem will be I CANT REALLY MAINTAIN MY IDEAL WEIGHT...HUHUHU JUST BECAUSE...I CAN'T RESIST FOOD...huhuhuhu....
I need to change my diet and maybe find time to pamper myselt at sauna, swimming (like I used to do before married)....hurmmm if got lot of money..maybe should get slimming treatment for few sessions... Marie France, Mayfair, Slim World!!! Or maybe liposuction...huhuhuhu desperado lah tu!!

Bless to you ... Ladies...
Statistics showed that 80-85% broken marriages caused by 3rd person and betrayal. I could not agreed more. Lots of betrayal comes from husband and there are some from wives. Whatever it is the children will be victimised by the situation and confusion especially when they are still young.
I am not going to brag about this as I am no motivator, psychiatrist, marriage advisor or Psychologist. But what I want to share in my blog are some real stories that happened to my own dear friends and family members. It is up to you to believe or otherwise because I will protect their identities and privacies. To those who know who you are...I hope you do not mind for being anonymously letting me share them in my blog.
Story 1
She was just a housewife and married to a good looking man but didnt conceived any child until they were married for about 7 years. Then they had a boy but after the son was only about 8 years old, her husband past away. She had to struggle financially as she never work before. The savings and insurance from her late husband were not enough to survive for the best of her child. She did all the work that she could as she was not high educated.
I didnt have to tell what sort of jobs she did but as long they were 'halal' and clean in our religion. After 17 years she struggled just to get the best education and life for her son and neglecting her own personal need, the outcome paid-off. Now her son is becoming a real gentleman, good son, good person, respect others, protective to his mom, very well groomed guy, high educated and will be having tremendous career ahead. To you 'great' mom...you can just seat back and relax now...let your son row his boat... you've done great job! Don't worry much about him...pray for him.
Story 2
She is a good looking lady, no doubt about that. She had 3 great kids, great career, highly educated and great personalities. But men are just men, never enough when it comes to women. She was suffering for 3 years due to her husband betrayal and affair with other woman whom i think was low rank kind of lady... I ranked that due to her education level and even her looks. She caught her husband twice in 'the act' that made her lost her patience and finally his husband divorced her.
Story 3
When this person told me this story I was like 'what??!!' is this a movie or what!? Is it real or just illusion? She was a great mom with a great 6 kids. I believe her earlier marriage was like anyone else, hope for the best, tried to be best wife, best mom and have best family...But sometimes never happened according to plan but they happened for reasons... She was left homeless with the kids... and the worst part her ex-husband poured boiling water on her face while she was asleep just to wake her up??!!
He was really hell of a psychopathic man! Well, the blessing was someone paid for her plastic surgery to fixed back her face and well now... she got new face but better looks and without wrinkles and freckles. In directly, she should thanks to her ex-husband...(just kidding..)..and for him...he just have to serve a little longer in the 'cell'. To you strong lady... there are still good men out there...so just give them a chance...!!!
Story 4
About this piece of story, I didn't expect this to happen as I know she was a nice lady, kind-hearted, intelligent, so calm and patience is always with her. Of course, she is very high educated and career women but yet never neglected her family. I never know since so many years knowing her, she has been in an ugly marriage life for the past 10 years. She tried to keep her marriage life as private as possible so that the ugliness of her ex husband character would not leak to anyone. Not only her ex-husband were having affairs with few 'low rank' women, he also hit and beat her. She told me he hit her till one day her ear drum injured badly that she was send to the hospital and she also had once miscarriage. And still she didn't make police report. The reason being, she still want to save the marriage for the sake of the kids.
She admited that she was being stupid because she loved him and the marriage. But I guess enough is enough, when recently she planned to file for divorce and egoisticaly her ex-husband divorced her before she could even file at the court. Well as for her ex-husband, he tried to be nice to his kids well, sorry to say...they are big enough to know 'who you are' and what you've done to her remarkable mother. As for you my friend, wake up! life is short just ignore him, pay attention just to yourself and your kids...So Move On!!!
Story 5
I consider the normal typical imperfect lady, having great kids, having professional husband and having good career but still, life isn't always perfect. Her husband betrayed her and considering he was never feel happy for the past years even the 2 kids came along to thier lives and while she was pregnant the 3rd, he found his 'true' love that he decided to divorce her way before she even delivered her 3rd child. Well the divorced process took place after the 3rd good looking baby delivered and as for her, she was quite prepared for it and she just prayed that one day all her sufferings will turn to thousands of happiness and full of blessings.
Her ex-husband married the 'disgrace' woman right after he was clearly 'unattached' as that was the condition to marry her. Anyway, life is full of miracle...the friend of mine ended her hurts and pains right after she was formally divorced because all she need was only her kids and maybe just here and there things to claim for her & kids' rights... But God works in miracle ways... Allah granted her real love and being love that she never found ever before.... It makes her life so meaningful and bless each and everyday.
For those who shared the stories with me...I urge you to keep on filling your life with love and attention to yourself and your kids (if you have any). Don't give up looking for happiness and pray hard because God knows what is best for you.
It is absolutely vital for you to move forward with life and love. Being willing to trust again is key. Take things one step at a time these points may help:
- Don't try to make sense out of nonsense.
- Rationalizing your cheating spouse's behavior or sympathizing with him/her is pointless.
- It is never OK to go outside of your relationship to solve problems within a relationship. It's not your fault.
- Time heals nothing. It is what you do with the time that matters.
- Remember that it is better to be healthy alone than sick with someone else.
- Remember, kids would rather be from a broken home than live in one.
- They're much better off with one well-adjusted, happy, thriving parent, than they are with two who are cheating, lying, fighting, and living with stress and pressure.
As for the pathetic and ungrateful Men on this earth and all the low disgraceful 'bi****' in the world who feels great by ruining someone's family and leaving the kids heartbroken, well Remember... What comes around goes around... the best part, either he or you are not worth it. One day you'll cry much worst than those whom you hurt, untill your tears dried and turn to blood. Trust me, you will face that worst than us!!! So Good Luck then!!!

Songs and Lyrics
I was feeling a little tired today... because trying to sort few things at the office and home... My travelling time to the office in morning took about 30 -45 minutes depending on the traffic condition as well as going back home. So those are the time where I pampered my ears with some music in my car...
Few days ago I managed to burn some songs on blank CDs that I found out of nowhere at home! Most of the songs are easy listening kind of songs...but what I want to share is this 2 songs that really made me feels like 'flying' and 'dreaming'... sometimes I hurmmm...such a cry baby...
Tercipta Untuk Ku
menatap indahnya senyuman diwajahmu
membuat ku terdiam dan terpaku
mengerti akan hadirnya cinta terindah
saat kau peluk mesra tubuhku
banyak kata...yang tak mampu ku ungkapkankepada dirimu
Chorus:
Aku ingin engkau selalu
hadir dan temani aku
disetiap langkahyang meyakiniku
kau tercipta untukku sepanjang hidupku
aku ingin engkau selalu
hadir dan temani aku
disetiap langkah yang meyakiniku
kau tercipta untukku
meski waktu akan mampu
memanggil seluruh ragaku
ku ingin kau tau
ku selalu milikmu yang mencintaimu
sepanjang hidupku
aku ingin engkau selalu hadir dan temani aku
disetiap langkah yang meyakiniku
kau tercipta untukku
meski waktu akan mampu
memanggil seluruh ragaku
ku ingin kau tau
kuselalu milikmu yang mencintaimu

Getting Start!!!
At last...this is it...I dont know what and where to begin...but what I know it will direct from me, my heart and something to share for everyone to ponder...
Creating this blog was triggerred from my most favourite TV series...non other than 'Desperate Housewive', yesterday's episode ( I could not remember the title...huhuhu). Some people may think that the show was PG rated and not suitable for our Asian culture..bla bla bla...
Hey! Wake up you people! We are living in the sinful world nowadays.. .you cannot avoid all the bad and good influences, vibes, deeds and forces that have been all over you, your family and your life! For God sake...get real! Actually it is all in you...it is how you perceive and able to educate yourselves to choose the right path, right knowledge, right surroundings and right acquantance! Don't have to be hipocryte and naive at the same time...
So back to my best show 'Desperate Housewive's...(hey ABC should pay me commission for promoting their show!...wink! wink!)...For the past 5 seasons, I watched the shows ...my conclusion and perception of the show...is Great! I rated it 10/10. The show features by Teri Hatcher as Susan Mayer, Felicity Huffman as Lynette Scavo, Marcia Cross as Bree Van de Kamp and Eva Longoria Parker as Gabrielle Solis.
For those who watched and loved it...they know what I meant.... But for those who didnt watch it, let me tell you...especially LADIES...
You will learn how to be strong and manipulate certain circumstances in order for you to survive, being able to appreciate friendship, relationship, handle difficult situation in your family eg. children, husband, relatives , in-laws (trust me on that!) and best of the best ..the 'know-how' skill to handle MEN!...even you lose them...maybe it is worth than to keep them...because you may find there will be the 'best' yet to come...sexier ones perhaps!...hahahahaha!
Yesterday episode...well Gabrielle's was trying to get back in shape after few years being ignorance about it since her husband had accidentally blinded and now Carlos was able to see the light again...and she had to make sure no one is more attractive to Carlos eyes.. I was so hilarious about her determination.
The Miss perfect, Bree...may lost one of her best friend just because of her 'perfectionist' behaviour to be successful in her career..Then she realised that perfectionist in her made her im-perfect person to her family and friends.
Susan, as usual...try to be the best mom and try to be strong without men...but the reality cannot leave without love from men. She always feels lonely and vulnerable because she was too stupid!!!
But I love the way Lynnnette handle herself in any situation regarding her life, her love, her children, her husband and her life as a housewife...She has the strongest character that made she the best role that I adores. She gave up her highly paid career just to make sure her husband not to look 'dumb'. As a matter of fact, she does had a low IQ husband but cute ones...and of course to nurse and take care her 4 uncontrollable sons by herself.
However the show need to be PG due to certain scene you will be 'trapped' once the kids 'accidentally' saw and you better know how to answer.
In all...I think those characters are the nature of women in anyway...don't deny it...but just think it over...
Well after watching Desperarte Housewives, I watched 'America's Next Top Model'( could not remember what season eh..)...the motivation after watched the show...is...I will know how 'ugly' I am...so I need to maintain certain things if not being able to achive certain 'thing'...
Well Monday nights for me is all about Women...because I was borne on the World's Women Day! 8 March !!!! You Go Gurl!!!
