i usually let my ailments run its course. if i'm "hardworking enough", tea+honey for sore throat. yeah pain, soreness, coughs may be troubling but i prefer to let my immune system zap at them.

I miss kueh lapis. Mum used to make it but it involves a lot of work. The one my mum made is coffee flavour.

Pearly White Chlor-Rinze from Guardian pharmacy.
I found it very effective in relieving my inflamed throat.
Just gargling it leaves my throat feeling much better. Leaves a bad aftertaste in the mouth, though.

Now for a short lesson on the female vocabulary ![]()
Satire Alert
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nine words women use...
1.) Fine : This is the word women use to end an argument when they are
right and you need to shut up.
2.) Five Minutes : If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour..
Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more
minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
3.) Nothing : This is the calm before the storm. This means something,
and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing
usually end in fine.
4.) Go Ahead : This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!
5.) Loud Sigh : This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement
often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an
idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing
with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)
6.) That's Okay : This is one of the most dangerous statements a wom a n
can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard
before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
7.) Thanks : A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say
you're welcome.
8.) Whatever : Is a women's way of saying F@!K YOU!
9.) Don't worry about it, I'll do it : Another dangerous statement, meaning
this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but
is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's
wrong?' For the woman's response refer to #3.Then you RUN!
