Allergy Testing

There is this medical center in Spore tht my uncle came across during a expo in apr.. They specialized in complementary & integrated medicine.. They offered this test called "allergy testing" where they can test which possible allergen tht can trigger one's allergy, in my case - allergy rhinitis.

They hav v special equipments & various possible allergen sample.. by measuring my energy level pertaining to each ampoule of allergen, they r able to deduce possible positive allergen. also, by measuring my energy level of each organ, they r able to come out wit therapy to eliminate or improve target organ's performance.

Target organ:
candidas overgrowth in large intestine -> decrease my immune, rel toxin
-> SxS shown through my nose (detoxing)
weak energy level wit my respiratory tract -> now affecting my liver as well..

tx: no sweet food, malted products, dairy, fermented product to starve d candidas + probiotics to balance up my normal microorganism in my body..

My allergens:
- wheat (NO bread, noodle etc for me?!)
- dairy products (my choco!!..)
- animal epithelia (i cant hav pets?! i baru wan to bela pets!)
- mites
- toys polyester (NOOO.. my soft toys!!..)
- shrimps & crabs (i love seafood leh!)
- synthetic pillow filler
- mercury filling btw my teeth (need to remove it & replc wit porcelien type?)

*sweat* wht life could i hav? anyway, just to get healthy.. i tahan!!

14th Sept 2008 - Mid Autumn Fest

Also known as mooncake festival celebration

went Takashimaya wit 2 aunts, shopping for mooncake.. wow look at d crowd!

traditional Hainanese mooncake :)

others..

I had a simple celebration on 13th night with d neighbourhood in spore, held by d committee member. The night started of by issuing & lighting of lanterns by d kids, followed by lantern procession & sing-along. There were also magic show, line dancing, games & competition (treasure hunt, jig-saw puzzle & pomelo-peeling). We had also prize giving ceremony for best 3 own-made lantern & lucky draws.

on 14th, had a v warmth reunion wit relatives in JB & spore.. simple yet i appreciate everything..今晚的月亮特别圆。
不在家乡庆祝,多少有些可惜
前院有点不完的灯笼
点不完的蜡烛
明日有清不完的蜡印
在小岛上的我,少了些些空间
多了少许宁静与思念
发现,我已经历了1/4的人生
好快...

This song, i specially dedicated it to all my frens :) it's one of my favourite song for dis special day.. 它勾起许多童年的回忆。Thx xinyin for d song :D 月亮圆 by 山脚下男孩。Many doesnt know tht, dis song was a msian production *proud* & 山脚下男孩 was one of d 1st boy band artist tht i loved.. they dismissed nt long after.. so it was rather a rare song to find it anywhere coz even d lyric itself "...没有春夏秋冬的家...", portraying seasons tht oni belong to msia/ south east asia.. bt my "home" is no longer as peaceful as it used to be.. 我很想回到从前...

我们真的长大了，老了吗？回顾已成习惯？
你还相信古老的童话吗?
Fairy tales & legends r my childhood :D

St Nicholas Church.. hmm just realised we didnt really had much pic inside.. how come?! :p
Its robust dome & thin bell-tower are inseparable part of d prague castle skyline, it is one of d most-sought after prague churches. It belongs among d leading baroque constructions in Europe & is usually defined as being d most beautiful building of Czech baroque. It was built at a time when prague was in d process of undergoing prominent changes, when during d 2nd half of then 17th century d existing Renaissance style was replced by baroque, a style representing political & social changes having arisen after Battle of Bila Hora (white mountain) in 1620 - recatholisation & consolidation of absolutist ruler power (copy directly fr brochure :p)

petrin tower! i gona get to d top!
It was built as a small copy of Eiffel tower. Although it is only 60m tall, bt petrin hill is way above sea level. Therefore, it is situated at d same level as in paris. It has 299 stairs & gives beautiful view of prague..

It was a v free & easy tour.. i dun really wan to rush my parents here & there to this & tht tourist attraction spot.. it was suppose to be a holiday for them! :D & i made it! hehe.. Love u daddy & mummy, also sis at home :)

some small tips for those who wants to visit paris..
1. nv go in summer! paris, d city of light, bt u nv see any night pics fr me, coz it's summer! sunset v late which makes it less possible for u to take night view.. unless u stayed up til quite late.. almost midnight shud b ok :)
2. rush to mona lisa 1st thing in d morning b4 u visit d lourve museum.. no other part in d museum is as crowded as there mona lisa painting was..
