RAISINS - Brain Food! Food for the Brain!


Raisins hd nvr been my fav food to munch. One fine day i decided to savour my wattery mouth with a couple of raisins. It melts in my mouth like how an ice cream melts in my mouth! i rmbr someone told me that raisins are regarded as brain food.. Why? Pachemu? Bue-yo? (nah... my 3 languages...)



According to Wikipedia, raisins are actually dried grapes! aiyerrrr... how can a bunch of scrumptious grapes be that of those tiny winy raisins? It can be eaten raw, baked, cooked or to brew wine~ Lets look into the history in the making.. cehhh.. :p

There were varieties of raisins. Two common types la as those sold at the grocery shops, or supermarket; yellow n black..




It all depends on the type of grapes used.
Seedless varieties include the Sultana (also known as "Thompson Seedless" in the USA) and Flame. Raisins are typically sun-dried, but may also be "water-dipped," or dehydrated. "Golden raisins" are made from Sultanas, treated with Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), and flame-dried to give them their characteristic color. A particular variety of seedless grape, the Black Corinth, is also sun-dried to produce Zante currants, miniature raisins that are much darker in color and have a tart, tangy flavour. Several varieties of raisins are produced in Asia and, in the West, are only available at ethnic specialty grocers. Green raisins are produced in Iran. Raisins have a variety of colors (green, black, blue, purple, yellow) and sizes.






Raisins, like the other fruits contains sugar. Di mana ada semot, di sana ada gulak..
Sorry for my ploha BM..
Raisins range from about 67% to 72% sugars by weight, most of which is fructose. Raisins, like prunes and apricots, are also high in certain antioxidants. As with all dried fruits, raisins have a very low vitamin C content.




When u actually observe closely on a piece of raisin, you might actually relate it to a gemstone due to its crystalline properties it potrays. A crystal which can be eaten lo... yum yum..Raisins are sweet due to their high concentration of sugars. The sugar inside the fruit crystallizes if they are stored for a long period. This makes the dry raisins gritty, but does not affect their usability. The sugar grains dissolve when the raisins are swelled in (hot) water. Like cooking payasam with raisins.. it swells into tiny little grapes. It absorbs the surrounding liquid very quickly via osmosis.. adui.. bio again.. hahaha... osmosis is the the process of movement of water molecules according to the concentration gradient.. water molecules oni ah... H20...

A Little


whenever i'm sad, i smell the fragrance of the flowers
i miss you, i touch your scent
walking the distance, fleeting in the wind
i feel as though i could touch your breath

you know, you don't know my heart
i miss you. i write a letter again
plucking a petal of my shy heart
i send it to you

i smile. when it's hard, i smile.
even though i'm alone, i'm happy
though i have to watch you from far away, far away
and you don't walk towards me one step

do you know at least a little? could you look at me just a little?
you flow in my heart quietly like a dream
suddenly, i want to cautiously show you a little of my loving heart

at the sound of your cheerful song
my seemingly shy heart starts to thud
lest should you see me like this
i hide again gently

i smile. even though i'm lonely, i smile
i've done okay so far by myself
though i look at your back figure without a word, without a word
though i want to hold your soft hands

do you know at least a little? could you look at me just a little?
you make memories in my heart like a star
just a little, i want to lean on your warm shoulders and fall asleep

this is probably destiny. it's probably love.
could you know, this heart of mine?

do you know at least a little? could you look at me just a little?
you flow in my heart quietly like a dream
suddenly, i want to cautiously show you a little of my loving heart

just a little, i miss you

Emelia or Park Seo Jin

Both are the same person actually. Just diff in personality. These few months i've been trying my level's best to lose weight. Smaller waistline, preferably in the 20s. Smaller m. gluteus maximus, smaller biceps n triceps, slimmer legs, slimmer thigh... hahahaha... i realized that i've been eating a lot throughout my entire 21 yrs of my life! I planned to put a stop to this! time to lose weight! Means, more workouts, healthier eating habits.

I've struggled hard repair my damaged skin. Now it seems alright. still my overall well-being is in a sorry state. I contacted many diseases. 2 surgeries in a row, fell into coma once. Gosh! scary......

I realized that it must begin with healthy eating habits. Less oily foods, workouts, and esp, i must avoid eating ice cream too often!

i must achieve this! I will!

I want nobody, nobody, but YOU!

Recently, there were these "gentlemen" which caught my attention. Watch this.. u will laugh till ur bone crack.. many diff edition of the ever famous Nobody by Wonder Girls !!!!!








Maybe i shud learn frm them to be more ladylike? hmmmmm~~~~~~~~
