I learned last week from my brother that there is a difference between the White capped bottles and the blue capped ones. I always thought it’s just a design difference, but turned out the colors indicate a lower sodium version of the bottled water.

Yeah so the white cap means low sodium and the blue cap is regular water. This might be helpful if you’re trying to lower you daily Sodium intake or in a low sodium diet.

My friend and I wanted to buy good pillows for some time now but we didn’t know where to look, the best we could do was IKEA, all my pillows are from there and I wanted something different. We went to a couple of places before deciding to go to Tilal complex, and thats how we came across The Bed Boutique.

It has a big collection of bed pillows and they’re so diverse. I use the word diverse because before going to The Bed Boutique, we were at The American Mattress, and their collection was disappointing. All of their pillows were kinda the same, the pillows doesn’t differ much and their prices were exaggerated.

Back to the Bed Boutique. They have a little room where you can try all of their pillows while having lots of privacy. The room is tiny and has one king size bed. The sales person actually encourages the customers to kick back and relax in that room and use it as long as they want, and take their time to decide which pillow to go for. I tried multiple pillows before deciding on their Tempur pillow.

The Tempur pillow I got is called Symphony, and it’s for KD44. It’s not cheap. You can get it online for KD30, but it’s heavy so I don’t know how much you’ll end up saving after paying the shipping costs.

It’s my 3rd night using the pillow and I’m enjoying it so far. It feels like a memory foam pillow at first, but it’s not, it’s different and much more comfier. You have to try it out if you’re looking for a pillow.

The Bed Boutique is at Tilal complex, Shuwaikh.

Sometimes I just want to take a knife and rip my tonsils out with my hands and slit them off.

I’ve been sick on and off for over a month. It started with my birthday, and I’ve been having throat pains for a month now. I think I had 7 days without pains throughout the past month. i’ve gone through many strepsils and Chloraseptics and the damned thing isn’t going away!

Since I was little this throat thing have been my thing. I wanted to get rid of the tonsils 2 years ago and I went to a prominent Kuwaiti doctor, forgot his name, and he gave me a bunch of meds, but nothing helped. I remember him saying:

1-you gotta keep your nasal passages clear by using a drop (contains cortisone), you can’t have them blocked, coz thats when you get sore throats, when you overuse your mouth for breathing.

2-You’ve got to know how to sneeze, and thats by avoiding harsh exhales (I don’t know how he said exactly, but it was something along “latishla3 bala3eemik wenta ta36is”)

He didn’t do much. He then told me that even if we decided to remove your tonsils, that won’t solve the problem, you’d still get sore throat if the cause wasn’t totally your tonsils. Whatever thats supposed to mean.

I didn’t use any antibiotics till yesterday, I had to.

I might go to another doctor and see what I can do with my tonsils.

Yeah I got a food poisinging from eating one of the tenderest meats ever at Meat Co. in Bahrain.

The food was great and the service was great. But then after going to sleep that night, I woke up with an equally great stomach pains, followed by lots of visits to the toilet and then a fever to end my weekend on a high note.

I went to the hospital and got a drip with 2 different medications and some pills. My other friends who ate with me in Meat company all had different orders, except this one friend, we ordered the same main course, it was dish was recommended by the waiter.

^This is the dish we had, taken from their online menu.

We paid 19 BD for a poisonous main course. Oh well atleast it tasted phenomenal.

We received this email and were asked to share it with you:

“Dear Readers

We are undertaking a personal campaign to raise KD75, 000 to cover the costs of a bone marrow transplant and hospitalisation for Farah, an 11 year old Egyptian girl who was diagnosed with Leukaemia in 2005 and underwent chemotherapy treatment at NBK hospital with a very good chance of making a full recovery. Unfortunately she has had two relapses since then and a bone marrow transplant, which is not available in Kuwait, is now her only chance of survival. To achieve this I am looking for 150 people to each raise KD500 from their families and friends within one week. Monies should be delivered to Cheryl at the KACCH office (to ensure the donations are properly accounted for ) with name and contact details for receipts. I would be very grateful for your support and speedy response because although Farah is currently in remission she could relapse at any time so the window of opportunity is very small, and I believe she deserves this chance to live.

Thank you

Cheryl office: 22464723”

We can make this happen. If only 10,000 people participated with as little as KD7.5 We can make this happen.

Fellow bloggers this is a good cause and a good karma, let’s spread this around and hope for the best!

Don’t u feel that suddenly every one want to get white teeth? I know it’s a good thing and who wouldn’t want white teeth or whiter teeth in some cases. But I feel that it’s the new thing now. You hear about it everywhere and even see it on TV advertisements (which became 2 ads without me realizing at first!). And I can’t deny it, it does make the biggest difference in someone’s face and smile, so why not I guess.

There are some popular methods for example going to the dentist and having it professionally done or using whitestrips, and I think there are some teeth whitening pastes….I am sure that some of u are blessed with white teeth but my question is for normal people, did u try any of these methods? tell us ur experience and recommendations

I would kill this guy.

A husband who discovers he is HIV positive in 2004, tries twice to inject his wife with his blood, and successfully get her infected, by injecting a needle wit his blood while she’s sleeping, just so she wouldn’t leave him.

The woman felt a sting twice at night, and when she asked him if he had done something he denied it.

The woman is said to have agreed to stay married to him even though he is an HIV positive person for the sake of their children.

Seriously I would kill him.

I was at the airport the other day, and while in the pharmacy I found what some of my friends were looking for but couldn’t find. It’s some sort of cigarrette quitting tool, an electronic cigarette if you may, that’s been hard to find as of late. The box contains one cigarette that is rechargeable. It’s for KD25.

I encourage all of the smokers out there to keep trying. I’m sure you can do it.

More info from their site:

Health Benefits

Harmful substances such as tar and tobacco are removed from electronic cigarettes as well as the other chemicals which have proven to be scientifically related to lung cancer. This means that electronic cigarette is the healthier option for smokers without the usual concern over its harmful health effects.

Financial benefits

While many baulk at the price of a standard electronic cigarette starter pack (retails for around $150 on average), they tend to overlook how much more money they would be spending over time if they stick to tobacco cigarettes. With the global hike of tax on tobacco and government initiatives to regulate smoking, there is only one direction which the cigarette prices will go, and that is up. Electronic cigarettes, on the other hand, will most likely not be affected by such regulations.

Eco-Friendly

Electronic cigarettes help to create a smoke and odor-free environment as they produce smoke-like vapor mist that are inhaled instead of smoke that are harmful to the human body produced by lighting up the traditional cigarettes. The electronic cigarettes are also rechargeable devices which simply require the replacement of nicotine cartridges, causing minimal stains to our environment unlike the flicking of cigarette butts and ashes.

Convenience

If you are a smoker, you must have been inconvenienced one way or another by the smoking ban that has been imposed in various countries over the last couple of years. In the past, you could literally light up anywhere you felt like even in public, but these days, you are confined to restricted rooms and designated spots just to get a simple nicotine fix. The electronic cigarette will help with this frustration as it does not produce any smell or smoke, thereby entitling you to use it anywhere in public when the urge arises.
