Bars and Cages

Oh yeah. It was the cage today! I miss last month's cage session, and was quite suprised that it was brought in on the 2nd day of the month! ho yehhhhh... this morning I was like looking at these metal bars on the field, and wondering to myself.. 'ni goal post utk apa? selalunya ada football goal posts je.. but the setup was square shaped and they kinda looked like monkey bars...'. Then Sarge told us that it was the cage. Everyone's right. it was a great workout. We were divided into groups of 4 / 5 and would alternately change positions in order to use the bar. The exercises that we did with the bars were cage pull up (awesomeeeeeeeeee! but my butt was too heavy to lift up at times.. so apologies for the 'time added on' moments.. really didn't mean to do so).,upside down push ups, and alternate hands push ups.  This was nicely laced up with some grunts, deep squats (jyeah as Sarge says it, it's all about the ass on the grass!) , SEH-LOW jack knives (which literally killed me in the abs and thighs), king kong push ups, shoulder push ups, planks, sit ups and lunges. Of course  we didn't do these in one shot. The exercises are divided accordingly to suit the rhythm. So after the one hour 'fun'.. (but really.. I enjoyed today's work out veeeeeeeeeeery much.. i realize that my arms, triceps and shoulders are absolutely LIFELESS when it comes to workouts. sheesh), my upper muscles were slightly sore.. and fortunately still attached. :) OBC is really motivating and challenging.. I'm glad to be a part of it. Till the next session.. Saturday... ;)

Another sakit gigi remedy

A story by my lil cousin princess, Yasmin Naili.... ;)

This is life... ;) family... ;)

Gigi oh Gigi

Today... my sakit gigi is getting worse.
Today... I'm craving for cupcakes...
But today... my sakit gigi is giving me a headache...

Toothache home remedies:

1. Using Icepack: Ice offers excellent numbing properties. Hold the ice around affected area and try to compress it there. Most often, the pain gets reduced as it is excellent in suppressing pain at nerve endings.

2. Get fresh peppermint (approximately 5 grams), add it in one cup of water and boil it, add half table spoon of salt. Make the water lukewarm and drink it. When ingested, this solution acts as pain killer and can eradicate other pains like headaches.

3. Using cucumber: Get cucumber from any vegetable stores, cut it into thicker slices. Hold these pieces on and around the tooth that is paining and it will start working to give soothing effect. If cucumber is refrigerated, it is better as its very chillness acts as catalyst to its soothing effect.

4. You can try out swig of whiskey over the irritating tooth. Once the gums surrounding absorb some quantity of alcohol, it delivers a kind of anesthesia to the affected area which results in lessening the pain.

5. Using oats: If toothache is experiencing the presence of abscess at gums then holding oats there can draw out the puss. The pain will be reduced.

6. Using dried peppermint leaves: Place a small stack of dried peppermint leaves around the aching tooth for 15 minutes and then spit out. Repeat this procedure10 to 15 times a day. Peppermint acts in a dual way. First, it brings the abscess to the upper surface if there any and then acts as pain killer.

7. Using real vanilla extracts: Get a cotton ball and put some real vanilla extract on it. Apply it on the inflamed location and you will be amazed to find out that it numbs!

8. Using Clove: From ancient times, clove oil has been one of the regular instant therapies. If you are not able to find the clove oil, then search your kitchen shelves to find out few cloves. Try to squeeze this towards the painful area. Clove being analgesic in nature will reduce the soreness.

9. Asafetida: Another miraculous pain killer! Take a half spoon of it and mix it with bit of lemon juice to make the paste of it. Make this paste Luke warm and apply the mixture with help of cotton ball.

10. Use of Iodine: just a drop of iodine put on the tooth do the job. But you have to be cautious and you should not swallow it.

11. Oil of Oregano: Although it tastes bad and leaves a burning sensation behind after application, it has got natural antibiotic properties.

12. Garlic: Make a paste of garlic and add some rock salt to it. Make a homogeneous mixture to apply on the affected area.

TGIF!

Hello Friday!

OBC & G

Okay.. I found out this morning that bootcamp added 2 more training locations in their list. One is Subang Jaya @ mini stadium MPSJ (wherever that is..) and also in Kota Kemuning Shah Alam. After doing some calculations, the distance from home to PJ Astaka (where I'm currently located), it 3 km nearer than the distance from home to Kota Kemuning (Plus, there'll be less traffic lights if I follow the federal highway.. I'm fine with that! phewh). As for Subang, it'll only take me approximately 13km.. which is the nearest amongst all, but yeah, it's Subang @ bandar havoc for me. Thus, I shall remain at my current location at PJ Astaka, and hopefully the same time and schedule. (Uncle Zamree, please agree with me on this! ;) There are times when I'm too sleepy / in pain to drive back home. miahaha. ) Okay. I confess that I'm now an OBC addict. Two times of AWOL-ing from bootcamp really haunted me throughout the whole week... sheesh.. Same goes to G's classes in One Utama. Miss a day of it, then I'll go cuckoo.. Heck.. It's just one of the things I do to destress myself and avoid food at the same time. (yes, I'm growing sideways. BOO!) So with OBC adding 2 more locations in their list, I absolutely have no reason to AWOL.. i can reschedule.. KAN?! (a self reminder... ).. Same with G's class.. if the time fits well, I shall go.. go go go.. No room for negative thinking in these 2 areas... Okay enough of that. (Kasut dah rabak. bila mau beli ni nabilah?! )

**My fridge is full of hersheys from Times Square!  ;) I'm in heaven!  H&Ms, and bags, bags, bags! uuhh... I may seem spoilt... but I'm working my ass here. Only God and my family knows that. Keep you freakin' shouldas, wouldas, couldas to yourselves and live your own life. I have a my own mission to look forward to and it sure does not include the unnecesarry people around me. gracias  :)
