FIRST AID KIT BOX....


I'm not sure if your house do have one but mine do not !!! I just realize that last week while searching for aspirin (panadol). People always make assumption and mine was I do have it somewhere in my house. After 30 minutes searching in desperado mode , no aspirin found and worst I need it badly ....

So my lesson learned was to have a proper first aid kit box AND MOST IMPORTANTLY complete with all the necessary items so that the next time I'm in the same desperado mode searching for aspirin or other medicine I know I have a first aid kit box.

BRAIN EXERCISE


I've read a book that stress on the importance of brain massage or brain exercise. Sound a bit strange but the more I read , the more I noticed that frequent and routine job for example going to work at the same time and using the same path is not fun for your brain. And a brain that is not motivated is not good as a whole.

The book suggest the simplest brain exercise is to do some different once a while to your frequent task. For example going to work using a different route or instead of TT session at your favourite mamak stall do it at a chinese kopitiam.

Good luck

SATAY HUT (TANJUNG KARANG)







A friend of mine once told me about a satay (barbeque beef) shop somewhere in Tanjung karang that sells extra large satay. I've trying to go there but not successful. Yesterday while travelling back from Teluk Intan (attending my grandma funeral), I've noticed a huge stall with a sign "SATAY HUT". Immediately I hit the brake and drive my car to the spacious car park provided.

And my friend was right. They do sell extra large satay with a price of RM 1.10 per satay. I would say it's about double the size of a normal satay. So the next time you hit Tanjung Karang please look for Satay Hut. It's a satay experience with a different twist.

LOG BOOK (BOOKS SUMMARY)


Reading can be addictive and that's absolutely true. But I do noticed that many do not write down the summary once they finish reading. I'm not saying that it's compulsory but I believe it's much better to jot down the main points in a log book.

I've done that and found it very satisfying especially when you can see that how many books you've read (mine is 35 and counting). But not only that you can also browse through the summary (plus the sketching or diagram) just to recap what's the book is all about. Fellow blogger Pak Adib is good in doing this.

HAPPY READING

MY LIBRARY


I like books and I always wanted to have my own library in my house. Starting from last year I was introduced by another book loving friend of mine to this book shop called PayLess Book Store which sells cheap used books.

So far I've good number of books collection to start a small library. It's satisfying coming back from work and to look at the books. I'm also using this as part of my strategy to motivates my 2 kids to love reading.

MEMORY JAR


I've read an article about the above few months back. It's a very creative concept of "sentimental" memory database. Most of us probably do have our own diary or blog to jot down the important occasions in our day to day living, things like birthday, the date we bought our new car or house, the day our son/daughter being accepted to the university and others.


The concept of memory jar is basically the same. The only difference is that all the "sweet" moments will be written down on a piece of paper and to be kept inside the jar. The writer do suggest that the jar to be opened during special gathering for example family reunion or birthday .


I'm planning to have one very soon.
