My Blue Heaven

Fruit + water = healthy body & clear skin

Yesterday, deciding to tackle on this cold before it got any worse, I overdosed myself on fruit and water (not that you can ever OD on that stuff!) I must’ve drunk around 4 – 5 litres of water at work (toilet visits almost every hour), plus 500mL of fresh squeezed OJ, a large apple, and then 700mL of my own Viva fresh juice concoction (inc oranges, pineapples, green apples, strawberries, ginger and mint – tasted pretty nice actually, just like fresh juice).

So I woke up this morning, and noticed straight away – no sore throat and no runny nose! Wow. Oh, and my skin looked really clear too! Yay! I think I might keep up this water and fruit thing. I mean, I normally drink enough water, 1 – 2 litres at least, but don’t usually have much fruit. Anyway, my runny nose has come back slightly.. but still no sore throat.. and I feel much better than yesterday. This morning I bought myself another Viva freshly squeezed juice.. this time with oranges, pinapples, apples, strawberries and carrot, plus the mint and ginger. Didn’t taste much different from yesterday – maybe slightly sweeter with the carrot. 🙂

Book worm

I started reading a new book last night – “Talon Of The Silver Hawk” by Raymond E Feist. I was given this as a birthday present early this year and only just decided to pick it up! Its pretty good so far – I’m more than a 1/3 of the way through it already! I like it when I’m into reading something… coz it means I always have something to look forward to. I’m always wanting to read it more.

Its always been like that with me and books, ever since my mum introduced me to the Famous Five when I was in primary school. My dad used to have to confiscate and hide my books from me when I was in high school, coz I kept reading them till absurd hours of the morning. But I often managed to find where he hid them, and would take them to read, but put them back before he found out. Heheh. Oh, and all I ever read was fantasy.. not so much sci-fi. My fave is probably Raymond E Feist – the Riftwar Saga, I also like others such as David Eddings – all 4 series, the Dragon Lance books, RA Salvatore’s Dark Elf series, David Gemmell, Robert Jordon.. I read some Piers Anthony too.. that was probably the only sci-fi I got into.

Current listening :: “Still” – Jennifer Lopez (wow.. listening to this makes me feel… nostalgic. Was it really that long ago when this album was released?)
