Menthol ointment aka minyak angin

You know those menthol ointments right? Its very popular in Malaysia as a pain reliever. It works in many ways. It contains methly salicylate which relieves pain by absorbing into the skin.

It also work as a counter irritant. It irritates the area so either the new irritant takes your mind off the current pain or that it increases the immune system activity to that area.

Its a type of aroma therapy because most of these ointment uses some sort of strongly scented oil such as mint, and cajaput oil makes it great to release nausea.

It comes in a balm or oil. Some newer ones comes in creams too. Why am I writing this? I have a headache and I need to use one and get some stuff of my chest.

So I feel

So I feel kinda bloated now in this bloated body. This kinda makes me look forward for our fasting month which is something I am usually excited about, especially in the next 3 years, my event at work will be during the fasting month.Actually it was not so bad, I mean I got everything relatively done, except for those nasty feedback forms that I have forgotten to do.

Anyhow signs that my weight is actually too much even from me is I can't even sit down on the floor for more than 30 minutes without being uncomfortable. What happens is that my left foot specifically with start to cramp. If I sit on the chair, my left waist feels kinda sore.

Damn, I can't even sit down properly without being uncomfortable. I think because of all that walking I do during work, I feel better walking and standing despite the foot ache. Perhaps I can't be in any one position. However this does not seem to be a weight problem. I think everyone will be uncomfortable if they are in the same position for long periods of time right?

Hmm... Questions to ponder and to feel

*boo, I should write more entries. I made a promise to myself to take at least 1 picture a day at work, to put in my monthly report, perhaps I post a day for my blog? It feels weird people actually sometimes out of the blue click on it, heck its better than seeing past aggressive post and pictures of food.
