I have been living in Qusais my entire life since i was about 2 months old, Re-calling my memories Qusais which is a residential area surrounded with everything a person can ever desire for from mall to supermarkets from groceries to food courts from parlors to game centers and list doesn’t end up over here, used to be a pleasant, peaceful, as I like to call it beautiful place 24 hours a day, and the best thing about Qusais is not a single bit of traffic around, no not even for few minutes, never.

Just about few months ago my friends used to call me the lucky one because I was always on time, looking precisely perfect whereas they used to look exhausted always in a bad mood, That’s how I turned out to be the shining star all thanks to the traffic free road of Qusais ALTHOUGHThing have changed now especially after the government decided to divert the traffic towards Qusais, but Im cool a little bit of traffic wont hurt me,Today once again I finished my breakfast, got myself groomed, read the newspaper about some country getting blown out, interesting I said, I folded the paper nicely kept it aside and look up AAAAAAAAWWWW……………..

This time it was MY HEAD which was getting blown up, I was sitting in my car right at the middle of the traffic jam for about 15 minutes or so and my car hasn’t moved an inch I looked around and figured out, I want the only one with red horns on my head and black smoke running out of my ears. The only thing pleasant at that time I found were the birds, feeding themselves and their lil’ ones flying around walking on the grass ohhh at that movement I just hoped I was a bird too.Anyhow, I reached collage at last after two and a half hours of “sorry, thank you, I just wish I could kill you can’t you see Im getting late”.Before getting out of the car , I somehow got myself to relax, drank some water which was in the dashboard of my car although it was really hot it did the trick and then I closed my eyes for a while………………………….

After a few minutes I was back in the track, I picked up my purse and was ready to leave my car to join my classmates, when I decided to have a last minute glimpse in the mirror and AAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWW…………………

Dubai’s TRAFFIC is as famous as TAJ MAHEL in India, The only difference between these two is TAJ MEHAL is mind blowing where as
DUBAI’S TRAFFIC is blowing mind, therefore I proudly present to you “10 tips to make your journey not only bearable but also entertaining”.

1.Car Dating: this is something I do much often call your boyfriend or girlfriend and spend hours talking to them on phone, major topic “you me and the TRAFFIC”.

2.Thinking: think about a very strong feeling or perhaps a memory or a person to whom you are really attached to. Ex. ones I was stuck up in traffic with my boyfriend, seeing me so exhausted, he closed the radio and seriously started singing an ad song which went something like this,
“doodh si safedi nirma se aaye, rangeen kapde bhi khil khil jaye, sabki pasand nirma Washing powder nirma,Washing powder nirma. Nirma”
(whiteness as milk brought to you by nirma, even the colored clothes will shine, every bodies choice nirma, washing power nirma, nirma.), well whenever I think about it brings a smile on my face, it brightens me up, therefore it works for me, let me know if it does for you too.

3.Planning: plan about something which really gets your mind. Ex. how are you going to surprise your guy on his birthday, or where are you going to spend your salary…….

4.Psycho therapy: keep on telling yourself just half an hour more just half an hour more, even though you are aware of the fact that it will take two hours or so. Keep on repeating in your head just a few kms more, just A few kms more. It will help you maintain your patience level.

5.2ND BEST FRIEND: carry with you a game boy or those car video games and have fun, on the other hand if you are not the game boy kind a person you can always take vegetables with you to cut at least that what my mummy does.

6.Observation: this is my favorite, just look around, see what other people are doing, (I guarantee you will enjoy this), ex. Yesterday when I was in my car in the same situation (traffic jam) I was going to karama from qusais, I saw this guy in his car he was making different weird funny face looking at the mirror, now that’s the sprit I said .

7.Singing\listening: this is something most of us will be good at, listen to music on radio or CDs and sing along, get yourself involved in the song; it might just do the trick.

8.Dancing: once you get into the music you will by your own start dancing, it always happens with me.

9.Eating/drink: get yourself some snacks (chip, biscuits, chocolate or if u don’t like eating much get yourself a drink). Then again if that doesn’t get your mood, get yourself a gum or a cigarette wont harm.

10.Grooming make-up/nail painting or perhaps hair styling: well, you can change the color of your nail paint or your lip color, a different hair style wont be such A bad idea either simply carry your make-up kit with you and that might just do the trick. That was for girls for guys a gel and a comb will do I guess.

11.TV watching: get a small TV in your car: get a TV attach to your car see your favorite sport channel or drama as you go along.

12.Last, but not the least if u cant tolerate the traffic anymore, don’t bother forcing yourself, simply park your car in the near by parking lots and go to. Ex. near by shopping mall, chill out have an ice cream or so or (if their is no parking available) or you are on a high way, stop your car on the near by bus stop or across the yellow line, on your hazard, and just relax until you find your energy back to carry on.

TWO WOMEN TALKING:

==================================

Woman 1: Oh! You got a haircut! That's so cute!

Woman 2: Do you think so? I wasn't sure when she gave me the mirror. I mean, you don't think it's too fluffy looking?

Woman 1: No, it's perfect. I'd love to get my hair cut like that, but I think my face is too wide. I'm pretty much stuck with this stuff I think.

Woman 2: Are you serious? I think your face is adorable. And you could easily get one of those layer cuts - that would look so cute I think. I was actually going to do that except that I was afraid it would accent my long neck.

Woman 1: Oh - that's funny! I would love to have your neck! Anything to take attention away from these football player shoulders of mine.

Woman 2: Are you kidding? I know girls that would love to have your shoulders. Everything drapes so well on you. I mean, look at my arms, see how short they are? If I had your shoulders I could get clothes to fit me so much easier.

NOW TWO MEN TALKING

======================================

Man 1: Haircut?

Man 2: Yeah.

If you want your skin to be on its best behavior, you need to clean up your act and follow a few rules.

1. Don't overdo cosmeceuticals. With more and more beauty potions containing alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), salicylic acids, antioxidants, and retinoids, mixing a cleanser from one line with a scrub or daytime moisturizer from another, then a night cream from yet another, can lead to over-exfoliation and irritation, says Deborah S. Sarnoff, M.D., associate clinical professor of dermatology at the New York University School of Medicine, in New York City. This can add up to a real problem, especially for women with olive and darker complexions, who are more prone to discoloration when their skin is irritated. To play it really safe, stick with one line of products which are formulated to work together. If you use any prescription products, such as Renova, ask your dermatologist to advise you on how to combine prescription treatments with over-the-counter cosmeceutical products.

2. Shake your booty. Twenty to 30 minutes of any aerobic exercise will give you a glow. Exercise increases blood flow, which brings more nutrients to the skin, says Sarnoff. But beware -- the buildup of oil and perspiration can result in sweatband acne, folliculitis, and prickly heat. The solution: Shower as soon as possible after working out.

3. Don't get intimate with the phone. Constant rubbing on the mouthpiece may lead to rashes around the chin and mouth, says Alexa Boer Kimball, M.D., M.P.H., assistant professor of dermatology at Stanford University Medical Center, in Palo Alto. Hold the phone away from those areas when talking, and clean it often with a mild soapy solution or rubbing alcohol.

4. Check your birthday suit for spots. Any sudden or suspicious-looking bump, mole, or other growth is reason to see a dermatologist. But as skin-cancer rates rise, having a full body check by a professional is crucial -- especially for those of us in the baby-oil-and-iodine, pre-sunscreen generation.

5. Eat healthy. Antioxidants (vitamins A, C, and E) -- which help reduce sun damage and fight certain cancers, including skin cancer -- are essential to your health, says Wilma F. Bergfeld, M.D., director of clinical research, department of dermatology at the Cleveland Clinic. She recommends a well-balanced diet filled with at least five servings a day of fruits and vegetables, plus a multivitamin that meets RDA standards.

6. Don't wear your makeup to bed. We all know it, but we sometimes do it anyway. "Layers of foundation, powder, and blusher left on overnight can clog pores and lead to acne or folliculitis," warns Sarnoff. Take it all off before bed with a mild non-soap cleanser. But don't waste your money on a cleanser with glycolic acid or AHAs: "It's not on your face long enough to absorb into the skin," says Sarnoff. "These ingredients are more effective in your moisturizer."

7. Hands off those zits. Poking, prodding, and popping can prolong a pimple's life and make the problem worse. Scarring and the spread of infection are two possible consequences. To speed up healing, cleanse your face, then apply a warm compress, such as a clean, damp washcloth. Next, dab on an over-the-counter cream or lotion containing a drying agent, such as salicylic acid, sulfur, or benzoyl peroxide.

8. Get your shut-eye. Most of us don't get the eight to nine hours we need to avoid sleep deprivation. There haven't been any conclusive studies on how being tired affects skin, says Alexa Boyer Kimball, but the effects aren't hard to detect -- namely, under-eye circles. The solution: Budget in sleep time, including a short afternoon nap whenever you can manage it.

9. Adopt "water, water, every day" as your mantra. Yes, drinking water does keep you hydrated, which helps skin look and feel better," says Bergfeld. Get in the standard 6 to 8 eight-ounce glasses throughout the day -- more if you're a heavy exerciser. Bergfeld also warns that many of the new sugar substitutes are dehydrating, so drink more water if you're into low-cal liquids

Don’t you sometimes wonder why there is a rapid increase in the ratio of people being overweighed especially in arab nations I mean im born & brought up in dubai & I would say you will find 7 out of 10 people chubby here. I thought to get to the bottom of it one day & was shocked by certain facts I discovered right under my nose.

To start with let me begin with the younger population of UAE , these days during school hours especially, kids are eating unhealthier than they have ever before.

In my opinion with schools being a good influence on children they should also teach them good eating habits. But no, Vending machines in many schools are provided, I think personally they are the worst for a growing young children/adult bodies. Without the proper nutrition it will affect them in many ways. It will soon lead to obesity if they continue with the process for a while, and it can cause many health problems & by not teaching kids these responsibilities sooner they will have to suffer the consequences in life imagine.

When I raised ma voice out in my school times a teacher shoot out a question at me saying “why do we teach you the food pyramid for then”. I agree that a pyramid is taught in thousands of schools around the world and focuses on the five main food groups: like dairy, which includes milk and cheese; meat, which includes poultry, beef and fish; vegetables; fruits and grains, which includes bread, cereal and pasta. At the top of the pyramid are fats, oils and sweets, and when we were taught we were always told not to consume too much of them. How can one teach that but yet promote the selling of junk food while in school hours. Since young people spend a large part of their waking hours in school, we shouldn’t promote these kinds of foods because by doing so we are indirectly encouraging them to step in the torment of food don’t u think so?

Concerned:0

Anyhow this torment further on turns out to be like quicksand which slowly drowns the life of the poor youngsters, i.e. he grows up with an unattractive, overweight body which not only leads into many physical diseases but also metal ones this can be caused due to many reason but the major ones are “being unnoticed”,” made fun off” etc. further more this will not only have a bad effect in their studies, appearance, confidence, their future but this will also have a bad impact on their surrounding (being careless while driving come to think of it may be this might be the reasons of the increasing number of accidents in Dubai , taking part in crimes due to jealousy, having a dreadful effect on lives of others, etc.)

Personally, I believe people get more attracted to what they see more then what they hear so if we try & put our voices into action we might be able to make a difference not only in the lives of these children but also in those of the upcoming generations (their future) after all it’s a well know saying “if you make the roots of a plant strong it is always likely to grow up into a sturdy tree.” Therefore I say nip it in the bud before the cute lil bud grows up into an giant eating flower & make a difference.

1. No Breakfast
People who do not take breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level.
This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.

2. Overeating
It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.

3. Smoking
It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.

4. High Sugar consumption
Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing
malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.

5. Air Pollution
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air
decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain
efficiency.

6. Sleep Deprivation
Sleep allows our brain to rest. Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the
death of brain cells.

7. Head covered while sleeping

Sleeping with the head covered, increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and
decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.

8. Working your brain during illness
Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of
the brain as well as damage the brain.

9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts
Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may
cause brain shrinkage.

10. Talking Rarely
Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain.

The main causes of liver damage are:

1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are main cause.
2. Not urinating in the morning.
3. Too much eating.
4. Skipping breakfast.
5. Consuming too much medication.
6. Consuming too much preservatives, additives, food coloring , and artificial
sweetener.
7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil. As much as possible reduce cooking oil use
when frying, which includes even the best cooking oils like olive oil. Do not
consume fried foods when you are tired, except if the body is very fit.
8. Consuming raw (overly done) foods also add to the burden of liver.
Veggies should be eaten raw or cooked 3-5 parts. Fried veggies should be finished
in one sitting, do not store.

We should prevent this without necessarily spending more. We just have to adopt
a good daily lifestyle and eating habits. Maintaining good eating habits and time
condition are very important for our bodies to absorb and get rid of unnecessary
chemicals according to "schedule."

Because :

Evening at 9 - 11 PM : is the time for eliminating unnecessary/ toxic chemicals
(detoxification) from the antibody system (lymph nodes). This time duration should
be spent by relaxing or listening to music. If during this time a housewife is still in
an unrelaxed state such as washing the dishes or monitoring children doing their
homework, this will have a negative impact on health.

Evening at 11pm - 1 am : is the detoxification process in the liver, and ideally should
be done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 1 - 3 am : detoxification process in the gall, also ideally done in a deep
sleep state.

Early morning 3 - 5 am :
detoxification in the lungs. Therefore there will sometimes be
a severe cough for cough sufferers during this time. Since the detoxification process
had reached the respiratory tract, there is no need to take cough medicine so as not to interfere with toxin removal process.

Morning 5 - 7am :
detoxification in the colon, you should empty your bowel.

Morning 7 - 9 am : absorption of nutrients in the small intestine, you should be having breakfast at this time. Breakfast should be earlier, before 6:30 am , for those who are
sick. Breakfast before 7:30 am is very beneficial to those wanting to stay fit. Those
who always skip breakfast, they should change their habits, and it is still better to
eat breakfast late until 9 - 10 am rather than no meal at all.

Sleeping so late and waking up too late will disrupt the process of removing unnecessary chemicals. Aside from that, midnight to 4:00 am is the time when the bone marrow
produces blood. Therefore, have a good sleep and don't sleep late.

DO TAKE CARE ABOUT YOUR HEALTH...... .........

it is a joy when u read my blogs
it give me a great relief when u smile at my blogs
it gives me great pleasure when u laugh at my blogs
but it makes me wipe when you leave
without leaving your foot steps behind
for me to seek my friends' hand

my heart is an ocean
filled with secrets
not beyond your reach
your eyes have all the keys
to unlock the door of my heart which lies deep beneath

but you seems to be unware of the power of love
which we usually share in this yellow blue mug
you dont understand what your eyes are capable of
they steal all my secret away with just a lil dry glimpse of your.
