Don't Drink Yourself To Death


If there is one thing i can change about the culture of my people, is the habit of alcohol consumption. Some people like to use festivals or celebrations as an excuse to consume alcohol excessively. While i have no problem with social or occasional drinking, excessive and frequent alcohol consumption is like digging your own grave. 

Most people who have alcohol-related health problems aren’t alcoholics. They're simply people who have regularly drunk more than the recommended levels for some years. Regularly drinking more than the recommended daily limits risks damaging your health and there's no guaranteed safe level of drinking. The more you drink, the greater your risk of ill-health. 

And it's certainly not only people who get drunk or binge drink who are at risk. Most people who regularly drink more than the recommendations don't see any harmful effects at first.
Alcohol’s hidden harms usually only emerge after a number of years. And by then, serious health problems can have developed.

Health effects due to excessive alcohol intake:

  • Liver problems
  • reduced fertility
  • high blood pressure
  • increased risk of various cancers
  • Cardivascular disease like heart attack
Other harmful effects:
  • It creates poverty
  • Road accidents
  • Domestic problems

It is interesting to note that Malaysia, although a small country, is the 10th largest alcohol consumer in the world! (http://www.ias.org.uk/resources/publications/theglobe/globe200103-04/gl200103-04_p18.html). This blog writes an interesting article about alcoholism in Sarawak. 

Alcohol recommendations vary across countries. This is a recommendation by NHS:

  • Men should not regularly drink more than 3 to 4 units of alcohol a day.
  • Women should not regularly drink more than 2 to 3 units of alcohol a day.
  • If you've had a heavy drinking session, avoid alcohol for 48 hours. 
'Regularly' means drinking these amounts every day or most days of the week.

Alcohol was the most harmful drug in the UK, worse than heroin or crack cocaine, in terms of damage to the individual and to other people - David Nutt




Drink responsibly.

Gym Is My Boyfriend

So the other day my partner in crime tag me in a photo that she says reminds her of me. It described me to a T. Gym is not my new boyfriend. It always has been my boyfriend.   Unlike most guys that I met, the gym does not give empty promises, does not disappoint, never demands, always leaves you satisfied, made me feel beautiful and sexy, made me a better person physically, mentally, and emotionally.  And never try to get into my panties. I'm such a gym junkie that most of the time, I schedule my social life, even dating around my fitness classes.  I clicked with a guy on Tinder. Despite the fact that he's obviously just wanted to get into my pants, we got on really well pretty fast and he really wanted to see me. My typical response to anyone who wanted a slice of my time would be  "I'll only be free on Monday and Thursday evenings. Other days I'll be working and gyming. If you really want to see me, it's either after gym or you come to my workp...

Guide To First Dates For Dummies

Guide To First Dates For Dummies While I'm not exactly an expert in relationships, first dates, and stuff, I've had a few learning experiences and a panel of consultants.  I feel the need to share with you, especially guys, a few do's and don'ts of a first date.  Basically to give you some idea of what girls expect on a first date and to save you from embarrassment and disappointments from not securing a second date.  1. Dress To Impress DO NOT underestimate the power of dressing. You only have one chance at making a good first impression.  You don't have to wear something expensive or trendy. Just something tidy, presentable, smart, or casual. Something you are comfortable in. Jeans, a nice shirt and shoes would be fine.  No short pants, slippers, and ratty t-shirts. If you want to wear shorts, wear them with a shirt (with collar) and shoes instead. Hair should be presentable, facial hairs trimmed and tidy, no bad breath or body odour.  Use cologn...
