有点怀念

好久没来了
在这种安静的夜晚,特别容易想念吧...
心里有种说不出的感觉,怪怪的
我还是一样,喜欢一个人哭,喜欢扮坚强...
就像那刺猬一样...
总觉得没安全感,总喜欢把自己搞自闭...
那就是我自己吧

周围的人变了吗?
还是我还在原地呢?
怀念的,想念的,还在吗?

夜深了
孤单公公出来了
听着歌
突然好想哭...

Food Fair day

Food fair was a two days event held at block a lobby, UCSI south wing.
There were lots of fun, laughter and also hardwork contribute to this food fair.
This event was organized by SASSA.

~First day of food fair --> 15 July 2009~
For Food Processing and Preservation,I worked with 9 others team members to develop a new food product - Sweet potato biscuit. The responds from our customers consist of mainly positive comments but there are definitely some negative feedback.

This is our group photo for FPP assignment.

This is us with Ms Jonice, our lab tech that had been helping us a lot.

On the same day, another subject, Food Microbiology that I am taking was also involve in this food fair with poster presentation. We present about Canned food, how to determine safe and good can food and also the related outbreak.

By the end of the day one, all of us were exhausted but yet happy because we manage to sold out all of our biscuits~!!!

~Second day of food fair --> 16 July 2009~
The second day I only had one assignment to do, which is poster presentation for Nutrition and Metabolism. Our title was persimmon with sweet potato. What will happen if both consume together?

For this poster presentation, we also did an additional effort to present this. We made a short video presentation that briefly explain what is the effect when sweet potato and persimmon eat together. This video can be view at the following link.

We also won first prize for poster presentation during food fair.

This is the group photo for all those that involve in food fair~~

That is the end of the event. From this event, I learned a lot of new knowledge from different people. This is what we earned after 75 days of sweats, tears and hardwork.

Nutrition and Metabolism Assignment

Combination of food.
Persimmons and Sweet Potato: Will it cause Vitamin A toxicity and a person can get very ill if consume together?
By Wang Wei Ling (1000615133)

Human stomach can normally digest any number of different foods at the same time. Combinations of food mean those foods that are compatible with each other in terms of digestive chemistry. Food combining is based on the theory that different food groups require different digestion times. Correct food combinations are important for proper digestion, utilization and assimulation of the nutrients in our diet. However, incorrect combination of food can lead to some what a disaster. Incorrect combination can lead to stomach pain, diarrhea, dizzy and so on.

Combination of persimmon and sweet potato is an incorrect food combination. Persimmon and sweet potato can normally be found at local stores. Although not much people will have the chance to consume both of these food at the same time, but the risk of it is still exist.


Both of these foods have their own good properties when they are alone. Persimmons are low in calories and fat but it is a rich source of dietary fiber, which is good for the intestinal activity. Persimmons are also famous with their phyto-nutrients flavonoid poly-phenolic antioxidant compound such as catechins and gallocatechins, which normally are found in green tea. Persimmons also contain some anti-tumor compound like betulinic acid and shibuol. Persimmons also play a role as the protective scavengers against oxygen-derived free radicals and reactive oxygen species that act in aging and various disease processes. This is because persimmons contain vitamin A, beta carotene, lycopene, lutein, zeaxanthin and crypotoxanthin which are the antioxidant compounds. Persimmons also rich in vitamin C that can helps the body to develop resistance against infectious agents and scavenge harmful, pro-inflammatory free radicals. It also has a healthy amount of minerals such as potassium, manganese, copper and phosphorus. Manganese is a cofactor for the enzyme superoxide dismutase, a very powerful free radical scavenger. While copper is a cofactor for many vital enzymes, including cytochrome c-oxidase and superoxide dismutase.


Sweet potato is an excellent source of vitamin A, beta carotene and vitamin C. Beta carotene not only is just the part of carotenoid vitamin family, it is one of the antioxidant compounds. Sweet potato contains vitamin B6 that can reduce the concentration of homocysteine in the blood. Homocystein is an amino acid in blood where when it is at a high concentration, it can lead to higher risk of coronary heart disease, stroke and peripheral vascular disease. Sweet potato also contains a significant amount of dietary fiber that can helps promote the good health of digestive tract. Sweet potato is an excellent source for manganese which is a cofactor for enzymes involved in hydrolysis, phosphorylation, decarboxylation and transamination. Iron and copper are minerals that are essential to immunity, maturation, function and activation of defense mechanisms that can be found in sweet potato too.

Starchy food is advisable to not consume with sweet fruit. This is due to that combination of both these food at the same time might result in stomach acid which will lead to gastric hemorrhage or gastric ulcer. In this case, sweet potato is considers as starchy food while persimmon is in the category of sweet fruit.
When sugar is eaten through mouth, the mouth will be filled by saliva but without the presence of ptyalin, which is an amylase produces by salivary glands. This is because sugar does not undergo digestion process in the mouth and stomach. Thus when starch is disguised with sugar, the taste buds of the mouth are deceived, leads to impaired carbohydrate digestion of starch. When this combination of food travelled to the stomach, sweet potato which is rich in dietary fiber will tends to delay the stomach digestion, resulting the sugar will also gets held in the stomach for a longer period of time. Eventually, this will promotes the fermentation process to happen in the stomach due to improper carbohydrate digestion in previous stage. Simple sugars such as monosaccharide and disaccharides sugars are easily to be fermented compared to polysaccharides which in this case, persimmons are loaded with simple sugars. A compound called as shibuol that can be found in persimmons can also lead to bezoar, which is the hardening of solid food in the stomach that can lead to obstruction in the stomach. Shibuol will actually react with the acid environment of the stomach to form a gooey compound. This will actually worsen the condition in the stomach.

When the fermentation process occurs in the stomach, the bacteria will turn the food into alcohol and acetic acid which will further increase the acidity of stomach. Thus, this may lead to gastric ulcer or gastric hemorrhage. Other than these, the products produced by the fermentation process can also be toxic to the cells and tissues when absorbed by the intestinal villi.
Both sweet potato and persimmon contain high amount of vitamin A, in the form of beta carotene. Is true that excess amount of vitamin A can lead to toxicity but the content of vitamin A here is in beta carotene form which possesses no harm to the body even if it is consumes in a large amount. This is due to that it cannot be converted efficiently enough in the body to cause toxicity. Instead, the excess will stored under the skin in the fat tissues which will turns the skin color into yellowish.

Combination of both persimmons and sweet potato will only cause gastric hemorrhage, gastric ulcer or bezoar. It is not truth in the myth that consumption of persimmons and sweet potato together can cause vitamin A toxicity. Instead, it is a good component for antioxidant compound due to the beta carotene and vitamin C in it.

Dreams

Life is like a dream
Full of dramas
Full of thoughts
Sometimes I really do hope it is a dream
At least I can stay in it
And kept on dreaming

Dreams are always better
Why aren't the real life be the same?

Life are tough
Realities are hurtful
Thoughts can kill
And acts can harm

I am giving myself a test
A test that will give me the answer that I want
A test that will determine the future
The road that I should take
The path that I should follow

Sick-ing + Uni life

I am sick again...Orz
Not very serious this time
A bit flu, sore throat and coughing here and there
But then why I have a feeling that it has gotten from bad to worst?
Only god knows what is happening

My Last Day of Work

Today, the new year's eve
Is my last day of work
A mix feeling, is what I am having now
Feeling happy, cause I actually finish my target
Feeling sad, cause I am the leaving people that I see everyday
My life is like empty and pause for a while
Feeling lost without any target
I really start to miss them now
Missing all the teasing
Missing all the disturbing
Missing people calling me "vi,vivienne,leng lui,ah moi,girl ar,lui ar"
Hahahahahaha
It sounds funny but I seriously will be missing that
Everyone calls me by different name

I still remember when I start work
I am still afraid and new to everything
Feeling a bit stupid and clumsy at times
But after a while,I start feeling the fun
Although there are times I am angry
Times that I was so frustrated
Times that I having headache,feeling dizzy
Times that I feel so stress and pressure
A lot a lot of moments that I won't have for the second time
Thank you, you guys
Thanks for teaching me
Thanks for standing my weird attitude sometimes
Thanks for nagging me almost everyday
Thanks for the gossiping time too
Thanks for making me happy everyday
Thanks a lot
I learn a lot
And I feel like I have grown up
And took a step forward in my life
You guys,I owe you all a bow
And a thank you
I will definitely be back there soon
To collect my pay cheque and also to disturb you all
Muahahahahaha

This journey let me think a lot
And learn a lot
Sees a lot of things that I won't learn in college
Understand a lot of things that I won't have in my normal life
I begin to understand what is what and why is why
I appreciate this journey of my life
Although is tiring and exhausting
But everything is worth for it

Maybe I should reconsider some stuff
Have a good think about it
Whether is all worth for it
And wake up from the dreams

And yea,on the new year's eve night
I am one of the weird ones
Staying at home
Looking at the time ticks
Waiting for the new year to come
Hmmmmm
Feel like talking to someone now
Anyone wanna give me a call?

Anyway, HAPPY NEW YEAR
HAPPY 2009
May all your wishes come true~!
^_^
