Tidur Yang Bising

Hey guys. You must be wondering about the title right? It's not a very serious problem for us now but, just for the sake of getting knowledge.Saya cerita jugak la. My post is actually about snoring. There are different reasons for snoring. Orang yang berdengkur ni selalunya ada lebihan tisu tekak dan tisu  hidung (nasal tissue). Kedudukan lidah pun boleh menggangu aliran pernafasan yang membawa kepada masalah berdengkur. This is because, 'snoring is caused by narrowing of your airway, either from poor sleep posture or abnormalities of the soft tissues in your throat.'(a definition from STAR Newspaper,Sunday, 26 June 2011,article by Kingston Rajiah). A few factors which cause snoring:

• Age-your throat becomes narrower as you reach middle age
• Sex- Men have narrower air passages than women and are more likely to snore
• Nasal and sinus problems-blocked airways cause difficulties in breathing, leading to snore
• Being overweight
• Alcohol,smoking and medications-they increase muscle relaxation causing you to snore
• Sleeping posture-sleeping on your back cause the flesh of your throat to relax and block the airway(hadis Nabi pun ada yang menyuruh kita tidur mengiring ke sebelah kanan...kenapa kanan...lain kali saya ceritakan)

Beberapa tips untuk kurangkan masalah ini:

• Ulang vokal (a.e.i.o.u) dengan suara yang agak kuat untuk 3 minit sepanjang hari (bila korang free la.jangan dalam kelas nak buat, kat kafe nak buat, semua tempat nak buat. melainkan anda teringin dibawa ke Tanjung Rambutan; dekat je ngan Puncak Alam derr...n_n)
• Letakkan hujung lidah di belakang gigi depan sebelah atas. 'Slide-kan'(gelongsorkan/slaid) lidah anda ke belakang selama 3 minit.
• Tutup mulut, dan kerutkan bibir anda. Tahan selama 30 saat.

There are still some ways of solving this problem but this are the most practical for all of us I think. (saya student lagi...nak buat cara lain makan kos...so...faham-faham la)
I guess that's all for tonight. Sorry kalau post malam ni agak boring sikit... Tapi penting gak benda ni... Especially sape yang gatal /gedik/gelenya/tergaru-garu/etc nak kawin awal. Mana la tau, tiba-tiba korang punya bedmate ada masalah berdengkur ni kan... At least dah ada beberapa cara yang korang tau untuk setelkan masalah tu kan... Haha. Sape yang terasa... Maafkan bukan saya. Saya tak buat apa... Anda yang nak terasa. Salah sendiri. n_n
That's all I guess. Thanks for reading guys.

Berjimat-cermat / Being Frugal

Hey guys. How are you? Good as usual I hope. Well, because today I did some window shopping and...hee...I kinda waste a lot of money, so I feel like writing about frugal.  Bukan apa, bila dah jadi pelajar universiti ni, mesti banyak duit yang habis dengan benda-benda merapu. Ya la kan. Takde sape nak kacau camne cara kita nak gunakan duit yang diberi. So, this post is a reminder to ME and at the same time, a reminder for you readers too. Nowadays, the standard of living particularly in the city is very high. Jangan haraplah nak jumpa nasi lemak lima posen dan yang sewaktu dengannya di bandar. This shows that, we need to find some ways in order to spend our money wisely. Jadi, lepas balik dari beli tapi tak belah tadi, saya telah mencari beberapa cara yang sesuai untuk kita gunakan dalam usaha untuk berjimat. The first one is, stop using your money for entertainment thingies. For example, movies, karaoke, computer games, arcade, etc. We need to realise that all of our money spent for entertainment is of no avail. Although, I didn't say that we couldn't spend our money for entertainment AT ALL. Just that, try to use less money for those kind of things all right.
Selain daripada itu, mungkin korang jugak selalu menghabiskan duit korang dengan makan di kedai-kedai seperti KFC, Pizza Hut ataupun yang seumpamanya. So, I suggest that we need to stop eating at those restaurants and find a more affordable and more economical restaurant ( padahal baru tadi je habiskan duit makan dekat Noodle Station. LOL). Anyhow, do you get my sense? Hope you do.
Lastly, buy something which is high quality and long lasting. Please be noted that when I say 'high quality', it doesn't mean that it should be branded. Not all branded things are high quality and not all non-branded things are low quality. And if possible, try to buy it during promotion. Macam hari tu la, saya telah membeli baju Body Glove yang sama dengan kawan saya tetapi dengan harga yang berbeza. He bought it for RM50++ and I bought it only for RM25. Still quite expensive, but at least, not too expensive like when my friend bought it. Well, I'm sure you understand what am I trying to say ( I hope). Lagipun, kitakan tidak diajar membazir, Nabi Muhammad SAW pernah bersabda "Orang yang membazir ialah saudara syaitan." So, think about it. I guess that's all for now. Just one last quote for you and me.

"Berjimat-cermat, terasa rahmat."

Assalamualaikum w.b.t and  good evening. Chow.

Please... Be A Considerate Friend

Hey guys. How are you? Hope you're in a good health as well with your family and friends. n_n   n_n   n_n   n_n   n_n   n_n   n_n   n_n   n_n  .... I can't stop smiling tonight because this morning, someone said to me "Blog ko interesting la Raja."  LOL. Tersenyum, tersengih seorang diri tanpa henti dari pagi.... sampailah satu insiden terjadi. Huh. Such a BIG mood spoiler that kinda ruined my day. So, because of that incident, tonight I'll be writing about becoming a considerate friend.
Who is a considerate friend? A considerate friend is a friend who always think of our feelings, help us solve our problems and understand our situations (just a definition of my own). So, are you a considerate friend? Are we? And even AM I? Hmm. Such a question can only be asnwered by people around us and not us ourselves because sometimes, we might think that we did something good and everybody loved / liked what we did but actually we're wrong. Everything we did, there would be a group which disagrees and a group which agrees with our doings. There is a famous quote by.... I can't remember who (sorry) which sounds more or less like this,

"If you find something that everyone agrees on, then it's wrong."

Jadi, kita tak boleh kata kita sempurna, semua orang suka kita sebab kita tak pernah sakitkan hati sesiapa dan yada yada yada sebab "No one is perfect." So, at least. AT LEAST. Try to be a considerate person. Coz, macam tadi, kesian dengan seorang kawan aku ( si A), disalahkan oleh seorang lagi kawan aku ( si B) yang mengatakan si A -lah punca eksperimen kimia kami gagal. Come on -lah. Thats not cool man / woman/ dude/ brotha/ sista. Haish. When we work as a team, no matter if our team fails or whatsoever, we couldn't blame any of our team members for the failure but ourselves. Maybe we knew something was wrong with our preparation but we just keep quiet, or maybe we knew that one of our team members have problems and we didn't even try to help him / her and many more 'maybe' reasons. So, who else do we got to blame? NO ONE except US! US! AND US! You can consider yourself as a considerate friend if you:
-care about your friends
-feel uneasy when your friends are in trouble
-try to understand your friends problem and help your friends
-always try to please your friends with e.g. your advices, moral support etc.
-LOVE,LOVE AND LOVE YOUR FRIENDS (p/s: bukan bercinta noh...sayang wokey...jangan salah paham noh)
I guess that's all for tonight. Thanks for reading guys. n_n

p/s: aku rasa aku pun takde semua ciri-ciri "considerate friends" tu. Hehe
