Meaty Vege

I used to think tat it's a big waste tat the Old Testament, or Torah for the Jews, forbids the eating of pork n sea creatures tat do not hav fins or scales. But recent readings pointed out the reasons n they're for the benefits of health. I can't really forgo all the good food, i mean think roast pork, deep-fried pork ribs, dumplings, crustacean baked with cheese, wanton, cockles... m thinking of my yummy curry meehoon yesterday at Uncle Chong's with lots of cockles...yum yum..
But seriously, prawns etc r pretty bad for health looking at their bad cholesterol n their feed. My dad used to eat lots of them even after curing from his first cancer. Plus, u hear all those pantangs abt prawns, lobsters, cockles.... they ain't called pantangs if they're baseless.

Guess the smart thing to do is to eat moderately. I try to lessen meat diet too since acidic body does invite a lot of illness to the body, which is a very hard thing to do totally. And eating good food in smaller portions, many meals a day. (I used to stuff myself silly during meal times cos js too enjoy eating. Restrain, restrain) Tho tis can only be done on non-working days, n on self-disciplined non-working days...hmmm... guess the keyword here is DISCIPLINE. Of course, gotta restain from drinking too much coffee too. Js green/black tea or lemon drink.

Surprisingly, i actually begin to enjoy vegetarian food nowadays, which btb, just found tis very nice lei-cha-fan eatery near my place. Used to think it's gross judging from it's very-green look but not anymore. Ok, gtg. Time for some organic soya drink n 2 portions of fruits. Discipline.

Good local ones

Just finished watching the last episode of Ghost, a local Malay production (thanks to the catch-up tv shows of 8tv). Gotta say, it's well written n acted. Starred Nazrudin Rahman and Cheryl Samad, the show was able to give you all the suspense and u never would hav guessed the ending. By then, everything just fell into pieces js rite. Like it when every episode gives a different turn to the story n whatever tat u've speculated is all wrong n more questions come up.
I remember another good show, Pond's Table For Two, tho i can't remember the ending...must be a good one, since it is expected to? The mains were Azizan Nin and Melissa Maureen (I love her!).
Guess the most memorable one is Kopitiam. Tat was classic. Also Ng Ping Ho.

Jamming at OUG

Just came back from a line dance jam at OUG Club. There were line dances n ballroom dances, each alternating after every 4 songs. I js realized how much i miss my cha-cha, rumba, samba n jive! Talk abt forgetting the steps. It's like u see it n u know u've done it b4 but somehow u js can't step on it. Of course i enjoy line dance but surely there's time for all...hmmm...
Boy, can those people drink - abt 17 ppl with 6 bottle of wines. We had 53 songs listed in tis casual jam but due to dividing time btw the diff types of dances, it had to be reduced to abt 40 songs. Lots of good ones - Window shopping, Lookin' for smtg (Britney Spears'), Doors of life, Just walk away (Kelly clarkson's, which was scrapped off), Wanna know why (Gabrielle's), Cry to me, Cha cha with me, Besame mucho etc... can't nail No doubt abt it by Timbaland (as well as No diggity), think somehow black hip-hop songs r hard for me. But all's good, considering the fact tat we started doing tis js more than a year ago n we r doing intermediate ones alrite. M good. All's good.
