♥♥Just about what I have gone through every day... So it will remind me of my life path up until now... I want to express it with words... My small brain can’t afford to keep it all... The language may 'Campur2' because it’s my diary after all... who will cares anyway??? XD♥♥

♥♥Life not always happen like you have planned.. Everyday there will be surprises happening in your life.. Treasure it.. Appreciate it.. It may not always happen.. And maybe will not happen again..♥♥

Sejam di Hutan

Hello! Malam ini masuk malam ketiga berada di rumah. Sangat tenang dan bunyi cengkerik, katak dan bermacam-macam binatang lagi kedengaran. Okay, macam formal sangat. Tapi tidak apa, saya memang skema. Hahahaha. Sebenarnya kelmarin petang saya telah masuk ke dalam hutan. Bukan lah pelik sangat tapi janggal sebab lama tidak masuk ke dalam hutan. *rumah dalam hutan, jadi memang tidak perlu lah masuk hutan lagi*

Selama sejam berada dalam hutan, saya hamper sesat. Berasa malu dengan diri sendiri, saya membesar dalam hutan dan hutan telah menjadi sebahagian daripada taman permainan dalam proses membesar tapi masih boleh sesat. =.=’  Hutan juga menjadi sumber kehidupan, tempat mencari nafkah dan tempat belajar erti berdikari. Saya ingin berkongsi sedikit apa yang saya temui dalam hutan dan menjadi sumber kepada nafkah saya semasa membesar.


“Mata Kerbau”

Ini merupakan salah satu cendawan yang saya selalu kutip dalam hutan sebagai sumber makanan dan juga sumber sara hidup. Nama sebenar tidak diketahui tapi arwah nenek memanggilnya Mata Kerbau, maka nama itu kekal tidak berubah dalam kamus hidup saya.




  “Purak Mato”
 Juga sejenis cendawan putih dan nama itu adalah terjemahan daripada bahasa Dusun yang bermaksud putih mata. Cendawan ini sangat lazim dan merupakan sumber utama pendapatan saya dahulu. 




“Korong”
 Cendawan yang agak lazim dan biasa dikeringkan untuk digoreng bersama sayur. Nama itu agak pelik dan ramai yang memanggilnya sebagai cendawan telinga. Tapi saya tetap menggunakan nama Korong kerana arwah nenek saya memanggilnya sedemikian.



Kulat Minyak
Okay, yang ini merupakan kesukaan saya. Sedap digoreng begitu sahaja dan memang agak berminyak. Juga merupakan kesukaan ramai orang kerana teksturnya yang agak lembut dan tidak liat.



p/s: saya membesar di hutan dan saya bangga kerana berpeluang mempelajari dan mengenal tumbuhan dalam hutan. Sebenarnya masih banyak sumber lain seperti Komburung, Kodop, rebung, paku pakis, Lemiding/Lombiding, Tongkat Langit dan sayur Molopo’o (juga dekanli sebagai paha-paha dalam kalangan orang Brunei). Nama agak pelik tapi tumbuhan ini lah telah memberikan saya kehidupan, untuk makanan dan sumber pendapatan. Saya agak merindui arwah nenek saya dan saya harap dia tenang dan ditempatkan bersama orang yang beriman. J

Brain-Boosting Food

Been pouring nonsense all this time. I think I should share some useful tips. And apart from that, learn something useful for me too. This tip was found while I was surfing the web. The tips that I want to share today is food that can help you boost your brain function. This tips was recommended by Dr Mike Moreno. Dr Mike Moreno is the author of The 17 Day Diet: A Doctor's Plan Designed For Rapid Results.


Well, since it was suggested by a doctor there is nothing wrong to apply it right? For those have allergies with the food listed, no need to eat them as an excuse to boost your brain. Instead of boosting your brain, you will end up at hospital bed. Worst? I will not mention it, you knew yourself. *touch wood*


Proceed to the tips..:D


1. Beef, extra lean: High in iron, a mineral that improves memory, alertness and attention span.


2. Beets: Contains phenylalanine, an amino acid that helps relay signals from one brain cell to another.

3. Blueberries: Excellent source of antioxidants and “anthocyanins,” compounds thought to help protect brain cells from toxins, improves use of glucose in the brain, and promotes communication between brain cells.

4. Broccoli: Packed with antioxidants and phytonutrients that help protect brain tissue from toxins.

5. Carrots: High in beta carotene and other natural substances that help protect brain tissue from toxins.

6. Chicken: High in tyrosine, an amino acid required for the production of the alertness chemicals dopamine, epinephrine and norepinephrine. When your brain is producing these, you think and react more quickly, and feel more motivated, attentive and mentally energetic. (absolutely not the live chicken! LOL)

7. Citrus fruits: Contain vitamin C and other antioxidants that help maintain sharp memory and help brain cells resist damage.

8. Edamame: Contains phenylalanine, an amino acid that helps relay signals from one brain cell to another.

9. Eggs: High in the B vitamin choline, which helps with memory.

10. Egg whites: High in protein, which can improve alertness by increasing levels of norepinephrine, which helps keep your brain at its sharpest.

11. Hot chilies: Contains the fiery-tasting chemical capsaicin. Capsaicin stimulates circulation, aids digestion, opens your nasal passages and, even better, sends a feeling of euphoria straight to your brain

12. Legumes: Provide glucose to fuel the brain, and the fiber they contain slows the absorption of glucose, helping to maintain stable levels of energy and support alertness and concentration overtime.

13. Pork: Loaded with vitamin B1, which protects myelin, a fatty substance that helps facilitate communication among cells. (only non-Muslim k? )

14. Romaine lettuce: High in folate, a B vitamin important for memory and nerve cell health.

15. Spinach: Packed with iron, which is involved memory, concentration, and mental functioning.

16. Tuna: Full of omega-3 fatty acids, which help build and maintain myelin.

17. Yogurt: A probiotic food that has been found in many studies to boost mental alertness.
