Alcohol is a depressant, which slows down the central nervous system and can cause drowsiness, relieve pain and induce sleep.

Alcohol impairs behavior, judgment, memory, concentration and coordination (shortened attention span, impaired problem solving abilities), as well as inducing extreme mood swings and emotional outbursts.

- Impaired or distorted visual ability and hearing (affects ability to distinguish between sounds and perceive the direction they are coming from) ; dulled smell and taste (reducing the desire to eat) and loss of pain perception; altered sense of time and space

- Impairs fine motor skills, and slows reactions.

- Numbness and tingling in the arms and legs caused by nerve damage from depletion of thiamine (B vitamin); when severe, can damage other nerve endings, causing staggering, etc. (Wernicke's Encephalopathy). 

- Long term drinking may result in permanent brain damage (Korsakoff's Syndrome or 'wet brain'), serious mental disorders, and addiction to alcohol.

ON THE LUNGS

- Lowered resistance to infection.

- High amounts of alcohol may cause breathing to stop, then death.

- Chronic heavy drinking may cause alcoholic hepatitis (inflammation and destruction of liver cells) and then cirrhosis (irreversible lesions, scarring, and destruction of liver cells). Impairs the liver's ability to remove yellow pigment, and skin appears yellow (jaundice). 

- Liver damage causes fluid to build in extremities (Edema).

- Decreases production of blood-clotting factors; may cause uncontrolled bleeding

- Liver accumulates fat which can cause liver failure (“alcoholic fatty liver”), coma and death.

Bad Morning

I feel so sleepy today because last night I didn't sleep. The husband of our neighbor is drunk, that the cause their couples fighting, they really make noise that's why all of us are not sleeping the whole night. My husband really angry but he doesn't  want to confront our neighbor because it is under the influence of alcohol. He said even I can talk that guys still it will not listen. I check the clock what is the time, it is already 2:30am but still I can sleep, I try but it is really noisy. They turn on their radio in the full volume, how can sleep in that situation? I decided to woke-up and cook for our breakfast early .

Even I didn't sleep last night but still I work today because now is the salary day. :)

Good Things for Coffee

My husband and my mother really loves to  drink coffee especially in the morning. Maybe they can drink coffee 4 times a day I think. 

There are what coffee brings good to our  body:

1. Coffee contains plenty of natural ANTIOXIDANTS which are vital to fight off free radicals that are harmful to your body!

2. Coffee increases our ALERTNESS by heightening our senses and response.

3. Coffee helps us LOSE WEIGHT by increasing our metabolism, which in turn burns fat!

4. Coffee helps relieve MIGRAINES or headaches.

5. And most importantly, studies show that coffee consumption can help us FIGHT Type 2 Diabetes, Parkinson's Disease, Alzheimer's Disease, Gallstone and Kidney Stone Formation, Liver Cirrhosis, Breast Cancer, Colon Cancer and Prostate Cancer.

My Kids

It is already 7 o'clock in the morning but I already feel the hot of the sun outside. Me and my kids, we  take a bath  to feel fresh before we eat breakfast. After the breakfast they start open their books because they really love to learn more and I am happy for that.

When I check the time it is already 7:45 am it is time to go to my work. It is really sad being a working mother because you don't have a time to be with them especially in study time. 

Ordinary Day

It is a cloudy day, it's make me feel tired and sleepy. My boss playing games in his laptop while my co-workmate waiting for the customers outside. Will... about me, I'm just sitting front of my table and my desktop thinking many things especially how to earn extra income. 


Almost everyday this is my work routine, if not really busy especially today I am updating my 3 blogs. It makes me feel better when I recalled to read all my post here. :)
