Filed under: Melaleuca, Products/Services — swling @ 4:29 pm

When I read this lady’s post, I am sure she is also a member of Melaleuca. She has intersting facts there. I don’t have to do more research and she is correct about never to give cow milk to infant below 1 year old and also the products which we have been using since our mother time being unsafe to us.

Hey, if the products are save, why are we having so many problem now?-cancer, birth defects, not able to convieve easy…

You read and enjoy. http://healthymomhealthybaby.blogspot.com/search/label/Formaldehyde

Convincing people who don’t understand

Filed under: Melaleuca, Products/Services — swling @ 4:21 pm

getting into Melaleuca business is so tough. It is like convincing them the benefits of breastfeeding-difficult.

Looking at them still using grocery products only make me feel sorry for their children. They just don’t believe that there are some manufacturers trying to make fast money here. Because of them we have ’sick’ generations. Terrible. So upset with them.

CAP already came out with a publication on the unsafe products but people just want cheap products. It is cheap for them now but the next generation suffers…so many ill babies…

Here is another article I found out from a mummy…

When wrong bottle is used

Filed under: Melaleuca, Products/Services — swling @ 5:39 am

Last week, my husband and I cleared off the termites in the store room. I used pre-spot and Tough n Tender to kill off the termites but it didn’t die so fast. I think this is partly I used the wrong spray bottle.

Mine was at the apartment so I mixed another bottle-I used the Tub n Tile bottle which produces tiner spots.

I am going to try out again. Then…where the termites are?

when termites are eating your house down

Filed under: Melaleuca, Products/Services — swling @ 4:12 pm

Well, my title may seems so bombardstick but my house is having termites-two different location.

I had used up half a bottle of Tought n Tender plus Prespot to clear off the termites spot on the car porch. It took me 3 days to spray, let it die then clean it later repeat the process again. All within 3 days. today, I checked again, the termites were no longer there.

Another spot is my ‘rubbish’ room-the store room. It is located on the lower floor. The termites are still eating the cardboard I had placed inside there. I can even hear them chew (thanks to my eldest sister that I pay good attention to their chewing). I am worried if they spread out from the store room so everyday, I get my son to spray them with Tough n Tender.

Then I realised that they actually came out from the store room. i used Prespot to treat the infected area. My husband is still thining whether to get Pest Controller or not. It is expensive, you know.

I told him, if no money, just use Melaleuca to control them. he is worried, of course. All his books are on the lower ground! 

psst… I wonder if this blog have spelling / grammar checker At times when I write, I would just go onwithout checking my English. In addition, the screen on this netbook is so small that I cannot see it.

When 1+1 is more than two

Filed under: Sunday School, christianity — Tags: — swling @ 1:17 pm

Last week, in the class I was teaching my students that 1+1 =cross. Beyond that is love, then abundant love and finally is about sharing God’s love.

How I did that was getting a 1 biscuit that shows number 1. I told them that everytime they see number 1 they must remember that they serve only 1 God. Most important, we have to share the word of God. As how much we are experiencing God, we also want the rest to experience Him.

Unfortunately, we are always selfish and worry if ‘it is finish’ So from that I actually broke the biscuit and it was extended to two biscuit. I asked them to give 1 of it to their friends.

Similarly, I asked them to fold an A4 paper into halves. They put the rainbow color on left half then place the two halves together. What my intention was is to get them to spread the word of God to their friends too.

Lots to be written here. I really wish that everything I teach someone would be taping this because sometimes I felt it wass not me who is talking there…silly eh?

Anyway, I hope they learnt. I did!

Gas tank for cooking

Filed under: Idea & Innovation — swling @ 2:59 pm

I was at my in-law place when my mother reminded him to buy a tank gas for cooking. He replied and told me that it would be great if the user could know how much gas were left in their tank.

I think it is a great idea. I always store a additional tank because we often ran out of gas unexpectedly. Having the indication would at least allow us to know when it is time to get a new one.

but then, this does not solve the problem of storing additional tank right? So, I have another idea. Petronas or Shell should have a tank that indicates two part-the one that belongs to the user (hey, it’s time to change your tank) and additional part that allows user to use it as spare. This spare will be charged accordingly to the usage.

Hmm..if this is the case might as well all the tanks in the future be charged accordingly to the usage. I wonder if they would buy my idea…

The Reasons for Encouraging or Inhibiting Students’ Active Participation in Asynchronous Online Discussion: Three Cases from Malaysia

Filed under: Publications — swling @ 7:49 am

International Journal of Interdisciplinary Social Sciences, Volume 5, Issue 1, pp.421-430.

A discussion board has become an essential tool in many Learning Management Systems because of its potential to allow
the construction of knowledge through active participation from the students. Unfortunately for the past few years when
online discussion was implemented by the authors, it has received unsatisfactory number of quality responses from the
students. The purpose of this paper is to identify the reasons why some students participated actively while some students
become lurkers in the learning environment. The authors sought to investigate the reasons that has encouraged or inhibited
the students from participating in the online discussion through results revealed in previous studies and also findings
acquired from three case studies that were carried out in a private higher learning institution in Malaysia.

When sometimes life is not fair…

Filed under: experience — swling @ 4:01 am

People do say “it is a risk in every pregnancy’. As a mother who had gone through 3 pregnancies, I must admit that I was always worried of the ‘what if.’ Thank God my children are alright.

Very unfortunate, in my family recently, Samantha was born with Inborn Metabolism Error. It is a very difficult illness as there was so many uncertainties.

I visited her last week and was very heart broken. I vividly remembered that she is tired and restless. She is getting tiny each day because she vomitted  a lot. I remembered the time I had hyperemesis. It was a difficult period for me and sometimes I wished I don’t have be pregnant. At least for me, I sleep to get time past. I counted my seconds.

For Samantha, she was crying for help. Comforts that we tried to give her was not enough. She needs something more and I am afraid that is something that  we cannot give.

I pray to God who is the healer for all illness, to give her the best medication. Let her become our witness of miracle. For it is YOU who bring her to this world. Amen!

here is a movie I created intuitively based on my encounter with her. http://swling.metakm.com/journey/swling_godway.wmv

What is the purpose of appeal?

Filed under: experience — swling @ 3:30 pm

This morning, I rushed out from home with samuel and ezek for my traffic court case. Luckly I reached there on time. I hate being in situation where I know nothing about it. The police were not friendly to inform us and also previous police in Putrajaya gave me different impression.

When my name is called, a lady read out my ‘kesalahan’ Puan Majistret asked me if I admit it. Of course I admit it. Police in Putra told me if I didn’t admit, they will do investigation and if really I did wrong, I could be fined more than normal. After I admit, she asked if I have any apeal. As I was telling reason why I commited the ‘unintentional’ crime, she stopped my stories and asked if I admit or not. So, I said admit. Then case close. 

I seriously don’t now what she expect to hear when she asked if I want to appeal. Anyway, I was fined RM350 for using handphone during driving. She is not interested for detail. So, i also have to be good girl and pay.

I was questionned at 9.00am but have to wait till around 10.00am because the court counter did not open. The policemen get us to quee up to pay at the counter below. they were so worried that we ran away (how could we when they took our IC)

So, we were brought to a room-which looked so pretty outside but when I entered, it was so stuffy with cigarette smell. Only a table and chairs were around. I saw two people sitting on the floor. They looked sulky. Two policemen were scolding them.

mr. sukri asked us to get someone to pay for us. I was shocked and asked why we could not pay for ourselves? He said it is because we commited crime and we are supposed to be handcruffed and be bailed. we cannot pay for ourselves but another person outside. I was really shocked to hear this. However, after few reasoning (there were 9 of us) he said we will pay for ourselves.

So again, we lined up to go to the counter. Over there, i was very relieved to see bright, clean and fresh air. I m not happy at all these situition because not knowing how is happenig n how v r supposed 2 protect ourselves.

 

In this country I live, now I wonder if they read my blog, they will jail me for writing n recording my experience. This is part of my journey this year. I am really ’sui’ this year and number 3 is my unlucky number.Today is Wednesday. Plus the tiger year. I have to learn to be obedient and pray more to God. 

to whoever reading my experience, never argue with a policeman. Like the Kajang policeman told me, “we are not crazy enough to simply catch people.” Never go to court also, too much time taken up and still paying. To know less is better.

Now, I have to seek information to  learn more about undang-undang memandu kereta.

Urinary Tract Infections summary

Filed under: Melaleuca, family — swling @ 1:13 pm

Guess I find wordpress a place for me to write down this email that i will send to my twin sister. her daugher often has UTI. Hope this will help here.

Danger of UTI

Women got it more than men and usually have 20% occurrences. I had UTI during my pregnancy and often vomitted. Gyne suspected the vomitting could be caused by UTI. Anyway, after baby is delivered, I am back to normal.

UTI are caused by the bacteria called Escherichia coli. this bacteria lives in the colon and infection often spread to thebladder then kidneys. My niece often has fever because the bacteria has infected the kidney.If kidney spoilt, the whole life is difficult. few days have to wash the kidney. During washing also, some patient fainted. Not only that, they have to implant a small machine on their hand to allow the drips/washing.  I saw my friend’s hand who has the machine implanted. it was swallon too.

The Melaleuca wellness guide informs to drink 6-8 cups of water each day to flush the bacteria out from the body. Avoid holding the urine. wear cotton panties/underware, use mild detergent and most importantas an adult, less caffeine and alcohol.

Anyway, the book suggested eating cranberry to “block the infectious bacteria from clinging to the lining of the urinary tract and bladder” p96. They carried out a study on 153 elder women and it showed lesser bacterias with women who took the cranberries. CranBarrier is the name of their product.

So my dear sister, here is my summary to you. Hope you can take care of your daughter. drink more water and no junk food/drink.
