a moment to remember

~songs in my head~

没有地球太阳还是会绕.

But I don’t care what they say. I’m in love with you.

I just wanna fall and lose myself Laughing so hard it hurts like hell Forget about everything and run away, yeah

:: if you have tried your best, there's no need for regrets. ::

~ THOUGHTS ~
By ourselves we are too weak to hold our own even for a moment.

"And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God" (Romans 8:28)

For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.

"God has given, God has taken, blessed be the name of God" (Job 1:21)

"I know what I’m doing. I have it all planned out – plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for.” (Jeremiah 29:11)

oh, the benefits of guava

i just made myself a tasty and healthy guava juice with milk. (however, mine wasnt pink guava like the photo..)
wanted to eat the guava but the skin has turned abit too brown for my visual liking and the fruit a little too soft, so i thought might as well try to make some juice out of it
i still wish there's an easier machine to make juice rather than having to wash the machine before and after (and its terribly hard to dig out the fruit bits left over after making it work)
but anyway it tastes really refreshing...
so i decided to google the benefits of guava juice
i have never tried white guava freshly squeezed.. and the supermarkets' guava juices are the pink (and artificially flavored) type..

The benefits of guava include controlling blood pressure, lowering cholestrol, battling diabetes, combating cancer and protecting prostrate!

Guava is very rich in astringents which binds up loose bowels in diarrhea. These astringents are alkaline in nature and have disinfectant and anti-bacterial properties, thus help cure dysentery by inhibiting microbial growth and removing extra mucus from the intestines. Further, other nutrients in guava, such as vitamin-C, Carotenoids and potassium strengthens and tones up the digestive system and disinfect it.

Guava has also higher amt of vitamin C as compared to our daily orange.
Certainly sounds like it can fight with the little vitamin c king, K for kiwi
i love it when fruit juice taste so naturally sweet without having to add syrup
also reminds me of our good o csbs watermelon juice dinners... altho i only realised after a long while that the canteen auntie added syrup to the juice :(

was surfing mama vintage on ebay and they have some gorgeous vintage dresses!
i havent bid on this lace dress, but i am watching the bids..
although i got to say im so sure the bids will rocket towards the end..

it has morphed into a mini obsession for me - it, being chiffon sleeves.
i know its abit like those wayang shows whereby they wear the robes with gigantic sleeves
but there's a charm to it when its sheer chiffon
it's like sexy in a subtle, elegant way
and there's something captivating when ladies show only their wrist you knw?
i forgot where i heard/read this from...
but i know this 'theory' was also applied in memoirs of a geisha the movie.
