Fruit numerology

Sharing some important numbers here with all. Not 4D numbers of course but these numbers will come in handy when you next shop for fruits. If you've ever wondered what those numbers on the fruit sticker label means, here's what it means...

The numbers on the sticker labels carry information of how the fruits were grown, ie whether they were organically grown, conventionally grown with pesticides and herbicides or genetically modified. You've got to know this, for the supermarket folks won't share this with you.

Conventional Fruit Labels - consists of 4 digits and does not start with 9. Most of the conventionally grown fruits have labels starting with the digit 4. I see this very often in Fairprice supermarkets, especially with apples.

Organic Fruit Labels - consists of 5 digits and starts with the number 9.

Genetically Modified Fruits - This is a must-know for all. It starts with the digit 8.

The next time you see some extraordinary huge grapes, make sure you read the label before you buy it :)

My wish

Someone asked me few days ago what I would wish for if I'm being granted a wish. Feeling a bit down that day, I gave a reply which I subsequently thought was silly and somewhat 'impulsive'. Somehow, that question lingered in my mind that evening. I thought to myself, why wish for something which will come eventually? I might as well wish for something that I want in this life but could not or have not had yet.

Now, if I can really have what I wish for, I want....

  • the whole world to know Jesus so they know where their future home is.
  • to be totally restored in body, spirit and soul.
  • to have a fulfilling and happy life.
  • to be so fit and healthy that I can conquer Mt Everest.
  • to be free from all sicknesses and weakness even in my old age.
  • to leave this world eventually in a painless, peaceful, dignified manner.
  • to be free from all worries and burdens.
  • to have financial and time freedom.
  • to be able to give freely and help the people around me.
  • to be able to give my loved ones everything they need and want.
  • to travel the world without having to worry about money.
  • to have an organized, minimalist, easy to maintain home.
  • to have someone to do all the household chores.
  • to have a home on high ground (or high rise) with a view to kill.
  • to be able to do up my home the way I want, with no budget constraint of course.
  • to be able to re-do certain decisions in my life.
  • to be able to play multiple musical instruments.
  • dust and pests to disappear from the face of the earth.
  • my furry friends to come alive but with no maintenance required.
  • all politics to vanish in every organizations, groups and societies.
  • all mankind to be happy, contented, fulfilled beings.
And now, for the vanity stuff, I want...
  • to have thick, soft, natural curls
  • to have long, curly eyelashes
  • to have sparkling eyes with no eye bags or eye rings forever.
  • to have porcelain complexion, no wrinkles or pigmentation forever.
  • to have more defined jawline, sharper chin and higher cheekbones.
  • to have slimmer arms, smaller waist and pelvic bones.
  • to have long, shapely legs.
  • to have perfect skin with no scars or pigmentation.
With so many items on my wish list, perhaps I should just wish that whatever I wish for will come true. Yea, that would be truly wonderful :D

Dead

Ha, I just whacked dead an irritating fly unintentionally. I don't know how it came to my study room when I don't have food here. I was in deep concentration when it kept flying incessantly around me. Out of frustraion, I just hit on the table and guess what? It died under my palm :P Never thought I could hit it 'cos it was flying really fast. In fact, I wasn't even aiming at hitting it. Ha, it's amazing how things get done sometimes without you doing it intentionally :D

Fresh air no more

Eversince my new neighbour shifted in, I have not been able to enjoy fresh air in the morning. Gone were the days when I can have my main door open and feel the morning breeze brush against my skin. These days, I can only open my windows for ventilation (yet the cool air comes through mostly from my main door). If only my new neighbour can stop burning incense...
