Health Camp




I got into this argument with my friend a couple of days back when I told him about this certain health camp which i was supposed to go to. For Hepatitis B Vaccine. He had this whole theory about vaccines being given to suppres our body's natural immunity, etc etc.

Apparantly,the vaccine costs around 2k in a clinic, and just 100 at this camp. So what's the catch? There has to be one! Surely, there isn't so much of goodness left in the world that people hold Health Camps and charge so less for the vaccine,right? So who exactly is it,who is gonna bear this humungus loss of giving away vaccines for throw-away prices?

What if the person injects an air-bubble? Or gives a higher dosage and my immune system cant fight it?

My paranoia is causing me to throw a tantrum and refuse to go to the camp.

*gulp*

HELP!

Why?

Why are we psyched about Aliens invading the Earth, when we have siblings in our houses invading our privacy?
Aliens cannot be as destructive as siblings,perhaps.

Is it Recession time for the hens too? Does that explain the alarmingly small eggs and an almost negligent yolk? Omlettes are supposed to be YELLOW and not WHITE. No more "Eat your eggs sunny side up!"?

In rare cases,Maturity Comes With Age

Strange how the littlest of things that used to upset you a couple of years ago, dont bother you anymore. There was a point of time when we avoided going to formal functions 'cause of the attire we were made to wear. Formals and Ethnic.
Now, its just another attire. Another formality which cannot be avoided,smile away like a retard even if you aren't familiar with any of the guests.
Jeez. Sometimes I feel it would just be better if we were all frozen in time.

SOMETIMES.

At other times, I'm thanking God for making me older than my cousins. And people.

Drools and Walks



Things to be prepared for if your planning on adopting your very first dog (things i wasnt prepared for):

1) Unconditional love: Which you receive and are expected to return too. Even if its 3am and if you've had a long day.

2) Doggie hair all over your clothes: This doesn't hold good if you opt for a short-haired dog which doesn't shed as much hair. Otherwise,it's a goodbye to leaving your clothes lying around. Especially dark colours and sweaters.

3) Puppies take time to understand why they should not confuse your expensive carpets with the bathroom. Patience is the key.

4) Remember the get-away vacation you took last summer? Well this time,you will have to take your dog along too! And believe me,you will have the best vacation ever.

4)a. Leaving your dog behind at a kennel while you holiday isn't a bright idea. He/she needs a vacation too!

5) Dog-proof your house: Make sure all your pump shoes and makeup stuff (and everything that you own and you want to exist) is carefully stacked away in your closet.And under no circumstances leave your closet door opened and unattended to.

5)a. Keep every possible thing out of reach.

6) Bonding time: They demand a lot of attention and care. So make sure you get back home early.

7) Teething dogs chew on anything possible. The things that you cant put away,like furniture, can be coated with Eucalyptus oil. The strong scent will keep him at bay.

7)a. People (like Vets and dog trainers)will suggest various treats and chewys to give to your dog inorder to prevent them from ruining your funiture. This, however, doesn't work. The furniture seems to be more delicious to them.

8) They hate being chained so try and avoid it as much as possible.

9) Dogs sweat too. Regular baths is a compulsion.

10)They never seem to get enough of walks. Good news for you! You have a walking companion!

Whitewash

I'm still trying to figure what exactly will be going on in people's mind when they decide to paint their whole house in a colour that hurts the eye! What,they want their house to be spotted from outer space too? Or do they wanna blind the joggers and their dogs?
Maybe these paints are sold at cheap rates on the market.. As no one in their right mind would go for it.. Who would wanna blind their visitors,anyways?!
Fluorescent yellow??Come on! It sure would look good if every house in the locality decided on theme-painting and settled on BRIGHT colours. Or maybe if just one of the walls were fluorescent. Maybe.
Why dont people just stick to white-washed walls and let go of these super-flashy coloured houses..
