PART I
Came across this at article asiaone/health matters today.
According to some researchers in Australia - A small bar of dark chocolate a day can keep stress at bay .
Well, that may signals a good sign for chocolate lovers, especially those who adores dark chocolates like me to eat it, without a sense of feeling guilty.
Dark chocolate, which is rich in a variety of bioactive compounds, also partially corrected other imbalances in the body related to stress, making it a natural way to ease stress.
But a gentle reminder: Choclates are high in fat and too much can lead to weight problems. Well, all food should be consumed at a suitable pace and limit, too much will definetely lead to health problems.
Humans know it but well, sometimes we have the urge to try food that we know that might cause harm to our body like KFC fried chicken. We 'll just have to try to control the temptation :)
PART II
I went to Bras Basah, Suntec City and Marina Square with ying xuan yesterday. We managed to meet Beverly, wan tian , sally and Yi hong ( secondary school friends) For me, I met one of my jc friend too. I was joking with ying xuan, 'if only i get to meet my primary school friends' then my day would be completed. Anyway, the reveal of the 2010 youth olympic mascot took place at Suntec City where the camera man caught a glimpse of me. Yeah , I was on TV for 10pm news on channel 8 for a split second. Well, at least they caught a glimpse of me.
We had some Q & A session where we managed to answer 3 questions pertaining to youth olympic and won some prizes. There were free balloons too. Ying xuan got a purple one while I got a blue & red one for my 6 year old cousin . He was so happy when I gave him the balloons.
BAD thing : All the kids were staring at me when I walked around with the 2 balloons ;)
On the other hand, at Bugis there was a SEA games'booth. People would give their well wishes to TEAM SINGAPORE, which ying xuan and I did. There was a lucky draw and she gotten a notebook, while I a fan with the words ' I love TEam singapore'.
This leads us to thought of Liping who was a devoted fan to Singapore and loves everything about Singapore. SHe was indeed a true singaporean. We joked that she would do anything but to rush down to Bugis immediately just to sent well wishes to TEAM SINGAPORE for SEA games 09.
After that , both of us went to visit the christmas and electronics fair where we met sally, wan tian and yi hong. They were there for the ANIMA ASIA thing. It's been a few months since we last saw each other.
AT marina square, ying xuan & I watched the Winx club stage performance. The fairies look well, emm, a bit bimbo according to YX. But the trix looked much better than them though.
