Leaving Behind

Having a whole life insurance is really helpful especially for those family left behind by departed parents or any family members. I'm glad my husband got one for me. I still want to be able to help my family when I'm gone.
My future job will deal with elderly. It's hard to watch them act like kids. I feel so bad if I can't do my job very well in taking care of them. I want to prove too that I can take care of people. It's really hard when they get aggressive and choosy but just have to have patience and compassion.

Cinnamon and Honey

I'm not sure where my friend got this, it was just forwarded to me.

CINNAMON AND HONEY

Honey is the only food on the planet that will not spoil or rot. It will do what some call turning to sugar. In reality honey is always honey. However, when left in a cool dark place for a long time it will do what I rather call "crystallizing". When this happens I loosen the lid, boil some water, and sit the honey container in the hot water, turn off the heat and let it liquefy. It is then as good as it ever was. Never boil honey or put it in a microwave. To do so will kill the enzymes in the honey.
Cinnamon and Honey
Bet the drug companies won't like this one getting around. Facts on Honey and Cinnamon: It is found that a mixture of honey and Cinnamon cures most diseases. Honey is produced in most of the countries of the world. Scientists of today also accept honey as a 'Ram Ban' (very effective) medicine for all kinds of diseases. Honey can be used without any side effects for any kind of diseases.
Today's science says that even though honey is sweet, if taken in the right dosage as a medicine, it does not harm diabetic patients. Weekly World News, a magazine in Canada , in its issue dated 17 January,1995 has given the following list of diseases that can be cured by honey and cinnamon as researched by western scientists:
HEART DISEASES:
Make a paste of honey and cinnamon powder, apply on bread, instead of jelly and jam, and eat it regularly for breakfast. It reduces the cholesterol in the arteries and saves the patient from heart attack. Also, those who have already had an attack, if they do this process daily, they are kept miles away from the next attack. Regular use of the above process relieves loss of breath and strengthens the heart beat. In America and Canada , various nursing homes have treated patients successfully and hav e found that as you age, the arteries and veins lose their flexibility and get clogged; honey and cinnamon revitalize the arteries and veins.
ARTHRITIS:
Arthritis patients may take daily, morning and night, one cup of hot water with two spoons of honey and one small teaspoon of cinnamon powder. If taken regularly even chronic arthritis can be cured. In a recent research conducted at the Copenhagen University, it was found that when the doctors treated their patients with a mixture of one tablespoon Honey and half teaspoon Cinnamon powder before breakfast, they found that within a week, out of the 200 people so treated, practically 73 patients were totally relieved of pain, and within a month, mostly all the patients who could not walk or move around because of arthritis started walking without pain.
BLADDER INFECTIONS:
0A Take two tablespoons of cinnamon powder and one teaspoon of honey in a glass of lukewarm water and drink it. It destroys the germs in the bladder.
CHOLESTEROL:
Two tablespoons of honey and three teaspoons of Cinnamon Powder mixed in 16 ounces of tea water, given to a cholesterol patient, was found to reduce the level of cholesterol in the blood by 10 percent within two hours. As mentioned for arthritic patients, if taken three times a day, any chronic cholesterol is cured. According to information received in the said Journal, pure honey taken with food daily relieves complaints of cholesterol.
COLDS:
Those suffering from common or severe colds should take one tablespoon lukewarm honey with 1/4 spoon cinnamon powder daily for three days. This process will cure most chronic cough, cold, and clear the sinuses.
UPSET STOMACH:

INFLUENZA:

Take four spoons of honey, one spoon of cinnamon powder, and three cups of water and boil to make like tea. Drink 1/4 cup, three to four times a day. It keeps the skin fresh and soft and arrests old age. Life spans also increase and even a 100 year old, starts performing the chores of a 20-year-old.

If taken regularly, it reduces the weight of even the most obese person. Also, drinking this mixture regularly does not allow the fat to accumulate in the body even though the person may eat a high calorie diet.
CANCER:
Recent research in Japan and Australia has revealed that advanced cancer of the stomach and bones have been cured successfully. Patients suffering from these kinds of cancer should daily take one tablespoon of honey with one teaspoon of cinnamon powder for one month three times a day.
FATIGUE:
Recent studies have shown that the sugar content of honey is more helpful rather than being detrimental to the strength of the body. Senior citizens, who take honey and cinnamon powder in equal parts, are more alert and flexible. Dr. Milton, who has done research, says that a half tablespoon of honey taken in a glass of water and sprinkled with cinnamon powder, taken daily after brushing and in the afternoon at about 3:00 P.M. when the vitality of the body starts to decrease, increases the vitality of the body within a week.
BAD BREATH:
People of South America , first thing in the morning, gargle with one teaspoon of honey and cinnamon powder mixed in hot water, so their breath stays fresh throughout the day.

Waiting for Summer

It's been raining lately and I kinda wish that it's summer. I don't like the extreme heat but I do like it where we can go outside and barbeque at our patio. This coming summer, I would like to be able to buy patio furniture cushions so we can decorate our patio furniture. It's so plain without decor and it makes it look nicer. I would like to be able to accommodate more people into our house and help them feel comfortable.

Bruxism



I am so glad I got to try Dentek dental mouth guard. I get to keep it too and will be using it because it has helped me in protecting my teeth. My husband always tell me that I have been grinding my teeth a lot of time at night and it worries him. It will destroy your teeth if you do not wear protection. I don't worry about it now. It felt uncomfortable the first few nights but later on, it was just normal for me to wear one. It does come off easily but still it protects my teeth.
This review is a result of a feedback campaign by Dentek Oral Care Inc. The recipients were asked to give their honest opinion about the product they received. Good reviews were not incentivized and poor reviews will not be censored for their opinion of the product.

Travel to Mexico

There are so many Mexicans here in US. I see them everywhere especially their food. Americans love it. I think to taste real Mexican food, we should go visit their country. It would be fun to go see some places in Mexico and stay at mexico hotels. There are really nice places that has beaches and there are also just small towns where it's not as expensive. I want to be able to experience real Mexican traditions and not the tourist areas. Steven went to one of the small towns and he really liked it. Hope someday, we'll get to visit.

Food for the Brave

The balut boys is what I call them. Last night we had a Filipino dinner and Steven bought balut at the Asian market for the guys to try. He has never tried it and last night was his chance to try balut since he has other people trying it also. They got my friend's husband to try it, he's a picky eater but last night he ate it. I'm glad Steven had the courage to eat balut, lol! You are now a brave man. It looked so good and all I got to eat was the white part. :( I want baluuuuutttt!

Formal Wear for Men

Men are really attractive when they wear tuxedo. If I get to see wedding photos and men wear tuxedos, it's just really nice to look at. Some women also wear it. I think it has become a trend especially waitresses too. I know my husband loves wearing a tuxedo and he does look really handsome with it too. He didn't wear on the last wedding we attended but he was really funny during his speech. I love him!

Nephew's Birthday

I'm happy I got an A with my final exam yesterday. Today, we are going to do our clinical at an elderly home. It's going to be tiring. I'm glad today is just the orientation. Got everything last night, my shoes, a pocket notebook, and a watch. Now I just need to figure the bus route.

Today is also my nephew's birthday. He is 3 yrs old. Love him so much! Such a smart kid. Happy Birthday, Zach! He is getting bigger.

Wireless Connection

My neighbor before uses a wireless router. It's cool because I could go online without using my own internet. You won't need any wirings to be able to connect to the internet. It can be dangerous if you have kids because they play with it and it can hurt them if no one is watching. I am not really smart about technology but this one is easy to install using an installation cd and it's energy efficient. I like that.

Finals

Today's my final exam and I feel unprepared still. I had the whole weekend to study but still I feel like I am not ready yet. My Filipina friend called me and said it was the hardest of all the quizzes. Yeah, maybe it is hard. What can I do? I fell asleep early last night. Good thing Steven woke me up and we prepared for bed. He had an assignment too but he was really tired.
I'm excited to wear my scrubs though. It's going to be fun wearing a real one. Hope I can find the right shoes tonight because I start tomorrow.

Home Theater

I love plasma tvs. I love the way they look and the screen seems so real especially if you're watching into a really big one. Having a plasma tv makes me feel like watching a movie in a theater. It's just nice to not go to the theater to watch a movie that's really cool to watch in a theater. It's comfortable watching movies at home, it's less expensive and you can eat what you want without spending so much. Plasma tv are also really nice decor in your home.

Class Report

Yesterday in class we had our report presentation on the different parts of the body. It was really cool because some teams organized games and gave prizes. I ate so much chocolate. There were a lot of question and answer portion. It was fun. When I got home, Steven and his brother were asking me about where I got the candies. I said in my class. My team had a video presentation and I was kinda disappointed that the video online was cut off because it had a lot of important documents and the picture wasn't in the right spot where I wanted. Hope we still got a good grade. I look ugly there too.

Traveling Bags

I have decided to spend New Year's eve in Seattle with my husband's best friend. We are not sure if we have the money to travel though but if we do we will need a good luggage. I saw the Eagle Creek luggage website and was thinking about buying a better luggage. They have different styles from different makers and discounts too. I know that in the airplane they get thrown around when crews load them in and out of the airplane. Sometimes they crack or break so I want something that I can use at least for a long time.

Dark Circles

This morning my husband told me I have dark circles under my eyes. I haven't been sleeping well lately. I have so many quizzes coming. I thought I should check on eye creams to help relieve it. I didn't know that there is a site for eye cream reviews. I like reading people's reviews on products. It helps me decide which one I want to use. My skin is dry so I really need to be very careful on choosing the right one to use. Glad I could just check it online.

Furniture

Our second bedroom in our apartment is still messy. After moving here for almost two months now, I still didn't make a time to just arrange it and turn it into a sort of study room. I do need office supply like desk, chair, filers, and other stuff so either me or Steven could just go in there and have some quiet time studying. I really like that room and maybe this weekend I will make a it a priority to just think about what to buy and how to arrange them. I can just go online and buy the items I need.

Fast Way

Steven has been complaining lately about being fat. He is not actually but he has been gaining some extra pounds. The easy way to lose fats is to take fat burners. I know he would just want to exercise and try to eat healthy but I am okay with taking pills if I have to. There are some people who find it really hard to lose weight. This is the easiest and fastest way to go if you are desperate to shed some of those pounds. A lot of people gave their reviews about it and it seemed to work for them. I usually ask my doctor first to see if it will work for me.

School

School is getting more and more harder but we're almost done with studying inside the classroom. Next month we will be in an elderly home and hospital to practice what we have learned in the classroom. I am getting excited but nervous at the same time because I really want to be able to pass the board exam. My Indonesian friend is having a hard time with her English but she is really smart. Today we practice on oral care and feeding each other. It was fun eating some food but I was kinda scared to drink the water, it didn't taste like our regular tap water.
Looking forward to our quiz on Thursday which is about abbreviations and symbols that medical people use. I like it compared to my other quizzes. Hope I'll do well!
