LIFE GOES ON

By Cikgu Fonik


What triggers my anxiety disorder was the pain and bloated i felt beneath the rib cage on the left side of the body which is just under the heart and a little biting on the back, , followed by breathing problem and heart thumping. It often occur whenever it want to occur and sometimes at 3 to 4 AM in the middle of the night, this one is scarry. Since I live alone, I freak out and drive to the emergency room only later to find out it was nothing.

Later I found out without the breathing problem and heart thumping, it was GASTRIC. I got 2G's earlier this year, gastric and gout, i get rid of gout with HPA ardisia herbal pills, the gastric is still here, now the symptom widens to constant burping, choking sensation around the neck, dizziness and light headedness. It is all resulted from the combination of eating disorderly, acid citric in lime (limau nipis) and bird's eyes chili (cili padi). Usually I missed breakfast and skip lunch, I eat after got back from work, I ate a big meal to cover dinner, breakfast and luncheon all in one, and I love heat and sour, I usually add chilies and lime to make the food more appetizing. later, all this comeback to hunt me, padan muka.

But it's not all bad. My life change after the first attack, i quit everything unhealthy, later resulted in me ballooning up to 89 kg,even thou i don't look like 89 since I'm giraffely tall. I went for a complete blood test in the middle of the year. The result wasn't that good nor bad, after seeking a medical advice, I need to loose some weight. So I change my life style, starting with food consumption, I remembered an article in this blog written by Hizzame, semua penyakit datang dari perut. So I decided to cook my own food, I replace vegetable oil, deep frying and santan based cooking with olive oil, steaming or frying with non stick pan (so that no oil needed) and water based cooking (soup, tom yam, boiling) and took sweet beverage once a day only.

To live longer is not our call but we CAN live healthier :)

    Oh, wow... but you're still young, in fact only one year older than I am, how can you have gout? Maybe you should try parkour like me, hehehe...

    Yes, healthy food makes a healthy body and creates a healthy mind! It is better to cook your own food than eating outside... all you ever see nowadays are fast food which brings more bad effects on health than good.

    Which reminds me,I have a healthy recipe to share with everyone in my blog...it is said to be good for your mind and stamina, maybe you can try it too... wait for it :)

Time Travel in the Quran?

By Cikgu Fonik
Image
The cave of Ashabul Kahfi Time travel is the concept of moving between different points in time. Time travel could hypothetically involve moving backward in time to a moment earlier than the starting point, or forward to the future of that point without the need for the traveler to experience the intervening period (at least not at the normal rate). Any technological device – whether fictional or hypothetical – that would be used to achieve time travel is commonly known as a time machine. There are no record in the holy Quran or tradition of the prophet (pbuh) of time travel back in time. However there is a tiding in the holy Quran of traveling forward to the future. Allah told the prophet (pbuh) in surah al kahfi 9-26 about a group of young men in an effort of preserving their monotheism  and a dog that took refugee in a cave from a tyrant infidel king (also acknowledge by the Jews and Christian). The asbab un Nuzul (occasion of revelation) of the...

How to set up a Sharp Aquos with Astro

By Cikgu Fonik

Am I the only one having difficulties connecting asstro to an LED tv? My 2 years old JVC TV broke down suddenly today, so I bought a new one. I went to giant and had my eyes on a 32" one of the sharp line worth RM8++ , the cheapest one among the branded on display. Unfortunately, it is out of stock, so I went to next best thing, a 32" Aquos from the same line. As we got home, I was very excited and start unwrapping and begun setting it up immediately, and again unfortunately, it won't work with asstro, it doesn't display any pictures except that thousand dots. So I connected it to a plain AV antenna and manage to receive one channel only, TV3. (That is why in rural area asstro is a necessity because normal antenna could only captures weak signal, if we get TV1 that's a blessing because we got two channel to enjoy!). Frustrated I called asstro but unfortunately again to no avail, the nice lady with asstro said they can only do their ...

Harga ayam vs harga ikan

Pagi jumaat lepas, aku ikut mak aku ke pasar. Nak beli ayam dan ikan kata mak aku. Bukan aku nak ikut tapi sebab aku seorang je kat rumah time tu, jadi kena la pergi hehehe. Sampai kat pasar mak aku terus pergi kat orang jual daging ayam. "Sekilo RM 5.00" ditulis dan diletakan kat tepi penimbang. Bagi aku murah jugak la harga tu. Mak aku beli dua ekor. Memang dah perangai mak aku kalau beli ayam mesti dia beli banyak lepas tu simpan dalam peti sejuk. Dah beli ayam, mak aku pergi pula kat tempat jual ikan. "Berapa sekilo ni?" tanya mak aku kat salah seorang penjual ikan. "Ikan Aya ni RM 10.00 sekilo" kata penjual ikan tu. Mahalnya kata aku dalam hati. Ikan Aya ni hanya di guna di negeri Kelantan dan Terengganu saja. Kat tempat lain orang panggil Ikan Tongkol. Mak aku tak jadi beli, dia terus bertanya kat beberapa peniaga ikan lagi sampai la dapat dengan harga RM 8.00 sekilo. Aku tengok bukan ikan tu je yang mahal, semua ikan kat situ semua mahal. Baru aku t...
