continuing from where i left off the other day(cleaning ONLY one shelf)...
spent the entire day cleaning up my room, when i say cleaning, i really meant cleaning. i drowned the floor in bleach(diluted), wiped my windows, pulled out my bed and scrubbed the walls, and clean out my table!!
MUAHAHA~~!!!

(i do clean my room every other day la. just that the mess on the table doesn't really bothers me, i just sweep and mop the floor.)

Gone are the messiness, dust, cobwebs and (the following is dedicated to ahtan and jiaxian...) the "anyhow-grab-also-got-pen" days. XDDD

love my room even more, now that it smells of a terrific bleach+dettol blend. =)))

so much talk about chemicals found in food nowadays.
first, there was the melamine in China's milk powder. now, there's the talk abt Bishphenol A (BPA) existing in milk bottles and plastic bottles. the news said that milk bottles should be changed every 4-6months and a consumer added that if possible, parents should buy those that are BPA-free or glass milk bottles(totally free of any chemicals).

***

we all know what melamine can do to our bodies. that it will cause our urine to crystalise in our kidneys resulting in kidney stones. however, should melamine be consumed(in minute amounts, please DO NOT freak), you can simply gulp down water(as much as you can drink) to wash out the melamine in our kidneys.
(hey~no harm done then. =DD)

p.s(however, drinking too much water might result in water-poisoning) =.=

***

what about BPA then?
what can BPA do to our bodies?
well...the trusty google tells it all!! XD

(taken from the following website http://www.cspinet.org/nah/bpa.html)

The scientific evidence that supports a conclusion of some concern for exposures in fetuses, infants, and children comes from a number of laboratory animal studies reporting that “low” level exposure to bisphenol A during development can cause changes in behavior and the brain, prostate gland, mammary gland, and the age at which females attain puberty. These studies only provide limited evidence for adverse effects on development and more research is needed to better understand their implications for human health. However, because these effects in animals occur at bisphenol A exposure levels similar to those experienced by humans, the possibility that bisphenol A may alter human development cannot be dismissed.

In laboratory animals, exposure to very high levels of bisphenol A during pregnancy can cause fetal death and reduced birth weight and growth during infancy. These studies provide clear evidence for adverse effects on development, but occur at exposure levels far in excess of those experienced by humans. Two recent human studies have not associated bisphenol A exposure in pregnant women with decreased birth weight or several other measures of birth outcome. Results from several animal studies provide evidence that bisphenol A does not cause birth defects such as cleft palette, skeletal malformations, or grossly abnormal organs.

hello??!!

can't somebody discover this 19years earlier??
i asked my mum and she said she hardly changes our milk bottles. (bad news~) =.=

and then i asked her further, how frequent was our(my brother and I) milk bottles changed? and she said that at least it is not what the news suggested(4-6months). (bad bad news~) -_-lll

after long months of deciding between the various brands of PCs. we eventually settled for HP Pavilion.
model: dv5_1036tx

***

erm...i suppose it's a relatively good deal because for starters, the original price was $2599 and we managed to get it at $2430 with free upgrade (from a 3GB to) to a 4GB ram, plus free carry case and optical mouse and microsoft home student edition. (so i suppose it's good right??)

***

the graphic card also very power so that means i can play those RPG games on my notebook(not as if i do play). but but...the MOST important thing is that it comes with a teevee antenna so i can get to watch teevee in my own room when i stay in hostel in the future. no need to go to the common teevee room and squeeze with everybody else for teevee!!! (plusplus point~)

God made man perfect.

(ok...maybe not that perfect.)

why do girls have their monthly periods?

(having major ache in the spine and kidneys there.)

ouch.

so what exactly is a Gilbert Tay?? O.o
(the polls are now open CLOSED)
a) a lecturer in NUS
b) an architecture firm
c) a scholarship
d) all of the above

***

the truth shall now be revealed...(drumroll)

so Gilber Tay is actually...
a) a lecturer in NUS
b) an architecture firm
c) a scholarship
d) all of the above

***

so Gilbert Tay is a lecturer in NUS??? *shrug*
i can't answer that for sure but i'm definitely sure that Mr.G is definitely NO architecture firm or a scholarship.

***

i shall move on with life while Miss. Ke-Ai-&-Mei-Li shall reveal to you the truest identity of Mr.G.

***

thank you for tuning in to "Huiyuan's Mr.G Mystery"

***

CASE CLOSED~ *picture big red words boxed up, like those stamps that police use when they close the case(i suppose they use those stamps, the teevee said so!!)*

ok...(being most unconvinced)...i went to google for Gilbert Tay archi firm again.

so the results were...(drumroll)

...that Gilbert Tay Architecture Firm don't exist??

check this out. http://www.gilbertarchitects.com/

it's not Gilbert Tay but just Gilbert. the base is not in HongKong but in Lancaster. the guy who founded the association was never Gilbert Tay but Thomas W. Gilbert. the firm has achieved several awards and their speciality is at designing school campuses. (FACT!!)

so eventually the case is solved for Mr.G. it's a case of mistaken identity.

but my final question is...so who is Mr. Gilbert Tay?? (polls are still open =D)
