Paper towels

How many paper towels do you pull out from the dispenser in the toilet to dry ur hands?

From observation, I realise that people pull out at least 2. Average of 2 pieces, and sometimes even 3. This is an observation I made from the Pharmacy toilet. Mostly girls, hands cant be too big.

For me, after I wash my hands, I flick some of the water onto the sink and then take out 1 piece of paper towel to dry my hands and tt's more than enough.

Next time when pulling out paper towels in the toilet, try pulling only 1 piece? It may be (should be) enough for your use, unless ur hands are as big as gorilla's.

Just by this, we can slow down the rate of depletion of paper towels in the toilet by at least half the rate! Let's try it! Do it! hehe.

(wanted to share this during AH Basic sharing for "Protect our Environment" but I tot it'll sound silly...) bleahhh....

and who knows. you may not need paper towels if you stand in front of the mirror for too long (the hands get dried up). haha!

Farewell my ipod

it died on the day when i fell badly after the Cheer Chen concert. *sobz*

What I did on my Leave day

I'm on leave today, trying to clear leave bit by bit cos we (being the unprivileged AH pre-reggers) cannot take one whole stretch of leave. So on leave today without much planning on what to do...

Decided to do hair rebonding. Found a cheap and gd home salon (from online forums) and thus, went to her house. Just a simple 4 room flat with 1 room turned salon. There were 5 customers at one shot! haha. All of us were taking turns applying the cream, shower the hair, blowing dry the hair.. and even had to blow ourselves haha (DIY sia)

she used Shiseido rebonding and it was quite not bad. too bad she din help to cut the hair (i guess she only learnt rebonding, dyeing and perming from Kimage academy). It was just $65.

So i headed to Kimage to do a $38 haircut and a $55 protein treatment and I had a 20% discount cos it's a Thursday. was psychoed into buying the shampoo ($39 --> $32 after discount).

The total fee for Rebonding, Haircut and treatment was only $140 which was a huge savings when compared to $208 which the usual salon quoted me (and they were not using Shiseido).

So, i saved a total of $60 although travelling quite abit, buden the travelling fees were at most $4 haha.

If u're interested in this home salon, u can ask me, but it's VERYY west haha.

Medication Error

Toddler rushed to hospital after clinic's medicine mistakes

another evidence showing that a Pharmacist is actually REQUIRED in clinics! How could the clinic assistant reply like that... "I dun noe"... hello, something happened, u want to say you kena black magic and "knocked out" izit? just feeling quite pissed with someone like her with no sense of responsibility.

and see my comment in Medication errors - no one wants to find out...
