stress ....

A friend of mine went to a fastfood chained chicken farm up north. Her work report on the chicken farm was like this : "the team which was assigned to conduct a 100% physical inventory count decided that it was not practical to perform a 100% physical inventory count on the parent stock as the female parent stock are in the process of laying eggs. A physical count exercise may stress the female parent stock and have adverse after effect on the productivity and quality of eggs produced" ......this is a real report, the chicken is well protected - coz they are the 'rice bowl', producing eggs for $$$. I want to bring to our attention that human being is the same too, thesedays a lot of issue/diseases are caused by stress. Aiii, if we can avoid stress , that be nice , easy said than done ....

ino mobile phone for the elderly

Hi Hi ....part 2 of the ino phone... It is available in Challenger Computer Hypermarket Singapore. Recently, it opened its HQ in Msia at Mines Shopping complex , huge store. Now, it also opened its branch in KLCC - COOL ! smaller branch but good enough for us la...this phone is retailed at RM380, right now if you go purchase it, you get RM30 discount coupon to purchase other things in the store. So, go check it out !!!

phone for the elders

My brother in law bought this inomobile phone for his 78 years old mother. I find this practical, a good sharing. This phone is manufactured in Singapore. It has big screen with big fonts, SOS button - when this SOS button is pressed for 6 seconds, it will sms / call to 5 phone numbers ...it will keep calling the 5 numbers until one of them replied or called back. It has a GPS feature to locate the current location of the phone as well, thus when the old folk 'terlost' somewhere, she/he can be easily found. I think this is neat, while the younger generation going after for ipad2, iphone etc etc , the elders go for ino phone ... my brother in law's mother is so happy to have her new phone, and she is on 1 month training lesson :) hehehe.... at the end of the training, there is a Mock SOS training to all her 5 phone numbers stored in her phone leh....cool yea :)

Bahija on air on BFM

Bahija was invited to BFM radio station, for a pre-recording session. I was invited as a caretaker for my epileptic brother, so I got a short air time to share my caretaker experience on my brother la ( on air ) ....it was very cool for me, at the same time, also very 'kat cheong' la , to me, I could have said better things la, but it's over , great memories. After the BFM session, the neurologist belanja I lunch, was very blessed to be able to spend 1 hour with the doctor. Of course being me - the kiasu sister, I always took opportunity to squeeze in my questions about my brother la ....doctor again told me, he reminded me years ago that medication will not work well for my brother, who has severe brain damaged. I challenged him and said "If there is a chance to improve his quality of life , such as reducing his seizure frequency, I will try my best to go for it...even though he is mentally challenged, he still deserve a better life ...." I felt like I was being prophesized over the lunch. Dr somehow said that everyone has a life purpose on earth, my brother is brought to this world having this epilepsy as well as mentally challenged, perhaps his purpose is just as simply as being who he is now , so that the people surrounding him can be affected. Dr said I am the one who gain the most, who learn more from him .... Wow, at that moment, it's too philosophical...but after some thought, it's true to some extents, thru him, indeed, I am a different person. I didn't tell him my side of story, here I want to say it out loud , thru my brother, not only do I gain something, I suppose I also give up a lot of things in my personal life ..... so it's complicated, hahahaha. Nevertheless, something is stirring within me , I don't know how the future will be for me .... but hope to walk thru it positively and END WELL. My pastor always said people tends to start well, but how many can end well .... I hope I make it to the 'end well' category, it's not easy .......

taking a break ....

Hi ALL :) After entering the workforce for 15 years, it is really great to have a small break. ( haa, not everyone has this opportunity leh ). Bahija completed her 3 years work contract, currently is taking a one month break - to relax, to run errants, to complete the outstanding personal tasks , to visit friends, to catch up with many things. Already enjoyed one week of break , so fast ....gosh, and enjoying every single moment. The only one still lack of dicipline is EXERCISE, out of 7 days, only exercised once, aiyuh. pengsan....
