Things I Learnt This Weekend (And Two Days)

• Friendships are like stars, they can be far away but still touch the deepest part of your heart
• It takes self-understanding, self-realization, and self-acceptance to be all that you are yesterday... better today
• Unconditional Love may only be 17 letters long, but bear a meaning far beyond the letters can explain; it means giving all of yourself and that of which you didn’t know existed in you to show someone else how much you care for them and accepting that through their wrongs and detours you will still always be there caring
• Daffy Duck has a severely foul mouth and Bugs Bunny isn’t as funny as he used to be when I was a kid
• I really miss having a dog (well I didn’t actually learn that – but came to re-realize that watching Marley & Me)
• God may be there calling me again (thanks *friend*) and this time I might just be ready to listen
• I am counting to my 25th Timmy’s and it’s official that I have no luck
• Disappointment helps you to learn who you are and in turn, makes you grow and mature into a better person. Focussing on the disappointment will trap you in one place and that place is never a good one
• There’s a Taiwanese boy who can sing Whitney Houston better than Whitney Houston
• There are 300 calories for every 27 Cheetos – a bowl typically can hold about 81 which equates to about 900 calories
• There is 330 mg of salt in a hot dog (Shopsy’s Brand)
• Tomorrow will never come and yesterday will never return
• If there's fight left in you, keep fighting, even if the silver lining is not visible
• Sake is really deceiving, you won't feel it, until you stand up

Protein Shakes

Anybody who knows me knows I'm a VERY picky eater and very sensitive to tastes.
So for me to find a protein shake is just like the needle in the haystack challenge with one more glitch - I cannot consume WHEY... which usually is in 99% of protein powders :S

So... I went on a search - into the world of vegetables and non-whey...

Tried Isomax's Soy - but turns out there's Whey - not good, but was tasty

Then tried Greens+ OMG gross... Why does everything Greens make taste like sh*t???

Then finally tried the Vega Protein - when I opened it and took a sniff I almost cried - surprisingly however, it is the BEST protein I've come across - even better then some of the whey complex ones that actually tastes decent.

Thank you Mr. Triathelon!

Today it's raining
And I crave a cola

The Apple

Kingdom: Plantae
Class: Magnoliophyta
Family: Rosaceae

Genus: Malus

Eve was seduced into eating the forbidden fruit.

It cost her paradise but gave her sight.

Hercules sought it, growing on the Tree of Life.

He found it.

1956: The Four Brothers sung, "You're the Apple of My Eye"

"An apple a day keeps the doctor away"

1977: The birth of Apple Inc
Now owning the largest market share in MP3 systems.

The apple made Snow White choke.
Despite being "dead" for so long, a bump in her coffin caused it to dislodge.
And she woke up.

Apple seeds contain amygdalin, which can shut down the body's metabolic functions.
This can cause death.

Fuji apples are my favorite.
