Blood Donation

I went for blood donation last Wednesday, which was on 21st September. I felt very embarrassing to say that this was my first time donating blood after 4 years since my last time donate was at year 2007;/ Can say that it was my first time too because the anxious feeling is the same as the first time I'm donating blood.

It was a mobile blood team that have their booth setup in my company. I did not voluntarily go to Pusat Darah Negara (PDN) to donate it --well because I'm the lazy kind of guy that expected things to come to me;) Since my target set to myself was to donate blood once a year, i did not go all the way to PDN to donate it, because my

Quit Smoking

Smoking is the common habit in the society nowadays. Well, too bad to say that I am smokers too. Well as every smokers says, I wanted to quit smoking but the sentence has been came out from my mouth for years and yet I’m still a smokers;o/. I did tried several ways of quitting smoking sources from the internet, like nicotine patches, nicotine gum, mental control and also to the extend of buying books that guide us to smoke free life. Does it works? Well all I can say is nicotine patch and gums are useless for me because I still seem to be in the habit although I use it for about 1 month. There is no smell on the patch or gums and they say that the nicotine content in it can prevent your lust for puff.

Well for me I think the culprit that causes me to find it hard to quit smoking is the habit. The habit to have a puff after every meal, the habit of having a puff when I drink with friends, the habit to get a puff before I enter the house or office, the habit of getting a puff when I’m in stress or relaxed. All these things if you think of it really good and healthy activities, but if you put cigarettes in the picture it seems to spoil the mood. But for smokers like me, it really brings up the mood. The feel to have a puff in a nice environment is really stress relief for smokers.
