household chores

been somewhat a month or so since i last "touched" Facebook. deactivated for some reason.
find myself having more time to utilise. wonder how much time have i lost by scrolling Facebook for the passed years. i must be nuts back then =.=

suddenly find armies of ants appearing in my room these few days. been staying here for three years, never seen any ants, i could even leave opened bag of junk foods in room with the airtight clip yet seeing no ants, no idea of why the sudden appearance. as if they can fly. suddenly one is here, suddenly another one on my laptop screen =.= got pissed off so i cleared the attacked area. i think I'm crazy. i usually dont do household chores after work, laundry is an exception. but i spent the time to clear things of today, all thanks to the ants armies =.= i think i found the source?? soaked the area with white vinegar XD XD hope it helps?? then mopped the whole area with wet tissue and added few drops of white vinegar. room smelled like dunno what =.=

i prefer natural remedies. for cockroaches, i use cloves. it is very effective!! put a few cloves where the cockroach appears, some time later it will crawl out woolly-headed from the cloves XD XD
for other issues like acid reflux, skin toner, eczema, etc, i use apple cider vinegar. not bad so far. once had gastric, was so serious that even after taking gaviscon, i woke up with the pain the next morning. so i just tried out apple cider vinegar, in minutes time, the pain was gone :) i trust it more since. haha!
google told me that white vinegar is somewhat effective in ridding ants. not sure of that, just soaked the area with it and see. i dont have any other chemical stuffs to rid ants, white vinegar is something thats of reach.

"As I began to love myself"

=by Charlie Chaplin=

As I began to love myself I found that anguish and emotional suffering are only warning signs that I was living against my own truth. Today, I know, this is “AUTHENTICITY”.

As I began to love myself I understood how much it can offend somebody if I try to force my desires on this person, even though I knew the time was not right and the person was not ready for it, and even though this person was me. Today I call it “RESPECT”.

As I began to love myself I stopped craving for a different life, and I could see that everything that surrounded me was inviting me to grow. Today I call it “MATURITY”.

As I began to love myself I understood that at any circumstance, I am in the right place at the right time, and everything happens at the exactly right moment. So I could be calm. Today I call it “SELF-CONFIDENCE”.

As I began to love myself I quit stealing my own time, and I stopped designing huge projects for the future. Today, I only do what brings me joy and happiness, things I love to do and that make my heart cheer, and I do them in my own way and in my own rhythm. Today I call it “SIMPLICITY”.

As I began to love myself I freed myself of anything that is no good for my health – food, people, things, situations, and everything that drew me down and away from myself. At first I called this attitude a healthy egoism. Today I know it is “LOVE OF ONESELF”.

As I began to love myself I quit trying to always be right, and ever since I was wrong less of the time. Today I discovered that is “MODESTY”.

As I began to love myself I refused to go on living in the past and worrying about the future. Now, I only live for the moment, where everything is happening. Today I live each day, day by day, and I call it “FULFILMENT”.

As I began to love myself I recognized that my mind can disturb me and it can make me sick. But as I connected it to my heart, my mind became a valuable ally. Today I call this connection “WISDOM OF THE HEART”.

We no longer need to fear arguments, confrontations or any kind of problems with ourselves or others. Even stars collide, and out of their crashing new worlds are born. Today I know “THAT IS LIFE”!
