Unculloteable

Matagal ko nang gustong malaman kung anong magiging itsura ko kapag ang aking pinakamamahal na buhok ay kulot. At noong sabado, nakamit ko na ang kapita-pitagang mithiin na ito! (Sensya na kaibigang moonlight, di na kita nahintay)

Asa 614 kasi kami nun, nagpapahinga sandali pagkatapos mag-sketch ng banner para sa "Copa", nang dumating ang kengdot. Me bertday din kasi kaming pupuntahan sa xvv. Nang ilabas na ni keng ang kanyang curling iron ay di ko napigilang humingi ng pabor sa kanya. Sa madaling sabi, nagpakulot ako, ayos!

Mga isang oras ding trinabaho ang aking hairdo, nageksperimento pa kami kung anong mas ayos, yung maliliit na "kinky" kulot, yung malalaking pa-wavy, at kung ano-ano pa. Sabi ko gusto ko yung magmumukha akong hudyo (syempre pa).

Habang niluluto ang buhok ko (it burns!!!) , napamuni-muni ako tungkol sa pinagdadaanan ng mga taong kinakailangang paghirapan araw-araw ang kanilang "kagandahan" (kaya pala sila "ganoon", nyehehe). Pano ba naman kasi, ni pagsusuklay nga di ko na nagagawa araw-araw. (mga twice a month siguro ang suma-total...)

Matino naman ang kinalabasan... Ang natural na pagka-wavy (ie pagkagulo-gulo) ng buhok ko ay naemphasize pa, lalo na sa likod. Nagmukha naman daw akong... anime character, hehe. Ayos naman nang tignan ko sa salamin. Okay na sana talaga kaso...

Nung pumipili pa lang kami ng istilo e binalaan na ako ni keng na kailangan pang shampuhin ng mabuti ang buhok ko bago matanggal ang kung ano mang magiging epekto ng aming gagawin (kaya mag-isip daw ako ng mabuti bago kami mag-umpisa). Subalit... Dati pa ay alam ko nang balik-ayos(/gulo/whatever) ang buhok ko kaya medyo dumapo na sa isipan kong baka hindi tatagal ng ganon yung aking bagong "do". Pero di naman namin naisip na ilang pasada lang ng kamay ko e mawawalang bisa na ang pinaghirapan ni keng... Ilang oras ang itinagal ng pagkakulot ko? Lagpas lang ng konti sa 20 minutes (san ka pa?) Bago pa kami makarating sa xvv e balik na sa normal ang buhok ko... nice...

Mukhang hindi talaga kami compatible ng (pekeng) kulot, dibadibs???

Fun Fact of the Day (#87256)

Diabetes mellitus is a medical disorder characterized by varying or persistent hyperglycemia (elevated blood sugar levels), especially after eating. All types of diabetes mellitus share similar symptoms and complications at advanced stages. Hyperglycemia itself can lead to dehydration and ketoacidosis. Longer-term complications include cardiovascular disease (doubled risk), chronic renal failure (it is the main cause for dialysis), retinal damage which can lead to blindness, nerve damage which can lead to erectile dysfunction (impotence), gangrene with risk of amputation of toes, feet, and even legs. Serious complications are much less common in people who control their blood sugars well with lifestyle and medications.

Most of the carbohydrates in food are rapidly converted to glucose, the principal sugar in blood. Insulin is produced by beta cells in the pancreas in response to rising levels of glucose in the blood, as occurs after a meal. Insulin makes it possible for most body tissues to remove glucose from the blood for use as fuel, for conversion to other needed molecules, or for storage. Insulin is also the principal control signal for conversion of glucose (the basic sugar unit) to glycogen for storage in liver and muscle cells. Lowered insulin levels result in the reverse conversion of glycogen to glucose when glucose levels fall — though only glucose so produced in the liver goes into the blood. Higher insulin levels increase many anabolic ("building up") processes such as cell growth, cellular protein synthesis, and fat storage. Insulin is the principal signal in converting many of the bidirectional processes of metabolism from a catabolic to an anabolic direction.

Type 1 diabetes develops when the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas have been destroyed. Nobody knows for sure why these cells have been damaged but the most likely cause is an abnormal reaction of the body to the cells. This may be triggered by a viral or other infection. This type of diabetes generally affects younger people. Both sexes are affected equally.

Type 2 develops when the body can still make some insulin, but not enough, or when the insulin that is produced does not work properly (known as insulin resistance). In most cases this is linked with being overweight. This type of diabetes usually appears in people over the age of 40, though in South Asian and African-Caribbean people it often appears after the age of 25.

Sweets do not cause diabetes.

Sayang... kala ko me katarungan dito sa mundo, hehe...

(wala lang, naisip ko lang bigla to... saka na ako magu-update... katamaran!)
