The worse type of HYPO

Hola!

So previously I've explained what Hypo is, I don't mind explaining it again : When the glucose level in the body goes low. you could check this link for more info

Today I've experienced a scary moment, truly. I thank god I could control it somehow.
Well,  as I also previously explained how I recently begun to lucid dream, and it do gets scary sometimes, out of control little bit?

I woke up with this weird ache in my head, felt like someone hammered my head. I opened my eyes trying to figure if this was real or another dream. I was too tired to think, too tired to survive what  I was going through.. I felt like fainting, but if it's a dream then it's okay to faint right? In dreams I can't get harmed.. My body was shivering, I was feeling so weak.. Focus brain.. Focus.. This isn't a dream.. but, I can just let it as well happen since it won't really effect me.
I was too confused, exhausted, & too weak, no power to figure out if this was another dream or reality. 
Whenever I felt like I was going to faint, or whenever I fainted and tried to survive, I told myself to stop for a while, close my eyes take a break to collect the power I need to stand up again, and it worked, but in this case since I got a hypo as well, I knew if i let myself rest for a second I wasn't going to wake up easily this time. It was quite dangerous situation. 
I had a bar of kinder bueno, gotta admit it tasted yummier than any other time I've eaten it. I've felt like I haven't eaten for too long, then again even when I was eating it, I was still thinking if this was real or not.
When I got the control back, and the shivers stopped.. I ate some biscuits like I haven't eaten since 10 years or so   0.o  .
I was told when glucose is low, a person starts eating like there's no tomorrow, especially sweet things which is so unhealthy, I tried to stop myself but I somehow couldn't, brain told me to eat much as I was and convinced me somehow that this is the last time I would eat this much after a hypo but who am I kidding... it's food we're talking about. Meh.
It made me think too, that I have to keep a journal, or more like a diary about my food habits only, this would help me a lot knowing the wrong habits I have and what I need to correct.
Dad keeps telling me, this is the right age and time to take care of our health and body, if we took good care of our body now, late age at 30s and 40s it won't give us hard time, otherwise you know what happens!!

Would you rather live on meds or healthy and powerful when you're old?
Think about it.


I'm loving the font, seems like I'll be using this forever and ever ;p

A month of no GAMING



    Ever since I came back to Oman, I made an oath to myself of not playing any game. It's more of a resolution. I promised myself to devote my time to my family members, well even they're not around I wasn't allowed to play any video game.
     In the beginning it was easy not to play anything because I was busy catching up with family and friends. I didn't even have time to check my facebook much, which is good actually I wanted to be busy and away from social network websites. I haven't touched my laptop for the first 2 complete weeks. I felt like it was a successful mission. After 2 weeks, it started to get a very little boring, I mean.. I started to get the urges to play. I felt like I was an addict and they took away the drugs at once. YES, it's like that okay. I had to do some work for dad so I had to use the laptop later on, so I opened my 'League of Legends' client, there was an update so I was like okay, this is a sign that I shouldn't play yet.
  There were times I was bored to death [ night time, well as it's summer holidays, no one sleeps early, wait.. who am I kidding, either ways I don't sleep early haha ] so I would get angry and would want to play but I find excuses to take my mind away, because I know if I started playing I wouldn't really stop, and I'd play contentiously which will ruin the holiday and my plan to devote my time to my  family.
   I'm so glad I passed one whole month of not playing. Today this ends. I'm going back to playing OK. 
  The thing is, once you're a gamer.. you will never ever get bored.
Look at the bright side, you don't have to waste money on anything, you're having fun, spending time and not wasting money or getting bored. See! it's fun.

Let the gaming session BEGIN.  See you fellas.. when I'm done playing !!!
Kiddin.. I'll be postin' soon.

HomeMade Frappucino !


   As most of you must have known already I'm a frape addict. Coming back to Oman means I won't be able to go to any cafe' more often just like how I used to go to Starbucks everyday in Deventer. Well, things aren't close by that you could go by walking [ Even if you were a rambo and decided to walk, the weather won't have mercy on you ] so yeah, I end up craving for things that I won't get. :(    Sad sto

ry I know
   So I decided, hey!! why not make my own frappucino YAY!!


You need :

- Ice cubes [ 1 cup or 2 ]
- Vanilla syrup \ Caramel \ Chocolate   [ depends on the flavor that you favor!! ]
- Coffee
- milk [half cup is okay]
- Sugar 
Now remember, syrup isn't the same as the vanilla essence or anything like that.

How to do it :

put the coffee in the milk, add the sugar in it and the syrup and then stir it.

Now I won't tell you how much of each you need to put because it depends on how you like it, ofx you can taste it and decide what more you need to add.

Then put your ingredients in the blender and add the 2 cups of ice in, blend  READY!
you can always add whipped cream on top to give it that professional look




I didn't really have caramel or vanilla syrup at home, there was chocolate only and I totally dislike chocolate drinks, so I made my own vanilla syrup, it's easy to make. [Haven't figured how to do the caramel yet so yeah, I'll go buy me a ready one better]


Vanilla syrup.

Ingredients:

- one cup of water
- one cup of sugar
- 3 or 4 tablespoons of vanilla extract

How to do it : 

Let the water boil, add sugar in it and stir it. When it becomes clear add the vanilla extract to it. Stir it for a while.



Enjoy your drink!

Perfumes [ Part 1 ]


     I'm a bit too picky when it comes to .... EVERYTHING.

  This post is dedicated to the perfumes I really love.I only try different perfumes when mom buys them for me, otherwise I'd go for almost the same collection. Those essences bring back some sweet memories and I like to remember them actually. Therefore, even when I change my perfume collection from time to time, you'll find some of the old perfumes in my collection.



- Miss cherie Dior. 


I remember not liking this perfume in the beginning :P it was given to me as a gift I guess? and I felt like okay I'll use it everyday to finish it quickly [ I rarely throw away things xD ] but then I was surprised by how I fell in love with the smell. Soon it was so addicting, kind of smell that took my own breath away. It's so sweet and strong. 
Recently I've gone to so many shops in the Netherlands, but couldn't really find it. I found a similar bottle of perfume but 'cherie' wasn't written on it, also the smell wasn't so strong. I've asked around and they said they don't sell this one anymore. I was really upset because I'm in love with the smell of this perfume. I think I saw a bottle of it in Oman's duty free section I have to check again next time I go :o wish me luck I really want this perfume so badly :<


- Paco rabanne black XS

Funny story about this perfume is, back in early 2000 I used to watch a series called 'Angel' I'm pretty sure you all know it, the handsome vampire <3 so yeah every time there was a break, an advertisement of this perfume would come, if I'm not mistaken they were the sponsors? So just because I loved watching Angel so much, and they were the sponsors I fell in love with the perfume without even knowing how it would smell.. But ey! I wasn't mistaken, it smelled really good, and I still love it!


- Versace : Crystal Noir
This perfume has a very sweet smell, it was one of those to get rid of perfumes too haha. I also like the light brown color versace the 'yellow diamond' one, they're pretty decent perfumes with light sweet smell that doesn't fade away easily.



- Carolina Herrera


I remember sneaking to my mom's room to use this perfume. It was mom's and I loved it so much. It has this sugary kind of smell that drives me crazy. I tried the pink one but it doesn't smell as good as this one


- Anfasic Dukhoon [28 aug? ]


These perfumes if I'm not mistaken have that mixture of  Frankenstein smell but in a different way. I think I don't know how to describe it, but it is the arabic kind of perfume. Each smell has a certain date. I was given this one as a gift too, it was just a normal perfume which soon was one of my favorites! I think the one Mom gave me was 28 Aug? See, everytime I go to city cintre the stall is closed or something happens and I forget to buy the perfume, but I'll make it a mission to get it before I go abroad. 



There was this one perfume I used to use, it had a very strong smell, that sometimes I'd suffocate for a while but I just loved it so much.. Can't really remember the name of it, but I do know how it looks like, I'm not sure if it's available anymore, it came with a pink shaped heart and a cream. It's another mission to find out the name of it.

So yeah there are my favorite perfumes, each have so many memories. 
Next post would be the male perfumes, stay tuned :D

Reading ...

   

     Once upon a time, I read lots of books. I'd read for hours and hours, yet I wouldn't actually get bored. Not that I get bored now or something..It's just that I no longer give time to reading anymore.
     There was a while when I literally considered books to be my best friends. I'd rather read than talk to my classmates when we had a free period at school, the time where everyone would talk, gossip, brag and all kinds of things, except for me. Believe me : No regrets! I enjoyed every minute I spent reading every single word.
    There was a pleasure in spending all that time reading. I felt like i was feeding my soul so much that after finishing a book I feel so full, the good kind of full not the one which after eating you feel lazy and can't move... get the picture? :P
    Even when we used to go to UAE [ well, we used to go every weekend I kind'f got bored of shopping] so I would go to the library in the mall and spend hours reading, not feeling the time ticking. Here also [ in Oman ] I used to go to borders whenever the family decided to go to 'city center' and would sit there not minding how long it was.
    I actually have so many books and magazines that I've collected ever since I was 9 ? Mom always threatens me to throw them away but I go like ' NOOOOO ITS MY PROPERTY ITS MY TREASURE I SPENT A FORTUNE ON THOSE... MY BABIES! '  God knows how many 'majid' magazines I collected through all those years. Didnt see that coming? well yeah I always went to the shop [mal 7ara] Tuesday night and bought the magazine because waiting till Wednesday which was the official day was too mainstream haha! That on one side, and my novels... they're everywhere around the house.. no wait mom put them in the storage room.
     I haven't really read a proper book since two years now? Recently as I came back for vacation, I went to bareeq Al-shatti mall where there is a section for 2nd hand books\novels and bought me 2 novels. I'm still reading the first novel and didnt finish half of it yet, yes.. no time! But I'm planning to take a few with me back to the Netherlands and seriously start reading since I spend time on train [which might not be the case if I moved] but yeah, it's a good way to spend time, I'm trying to be a less of a gamer but I think the habit of gaming would be back once i go there :P !!
    I'll create my own little library at my house there, promise :P ! 
Time to feed my soul again and get creative.. you know that effect you get after reading so many books.


If you fellows have any book suggestions, please do mention the names I'd like to read different things and see your opinions.
