The Other Use of My MP3

Written on May 6th, 2011 by Yromano shouts

The Other Use of My MP3Most people use MP3 players as a device for storing and playing audio music files. Personally, I like to use this device because of its simple and compact form, with high capacity to store songs and other digital data downloaded from internet. Some devices have also voice recorder for storing any kinds of speech, from lectures to interviews, from conversations to one’s own recorded ideas.

An MP3 player which has voice recorder function can be used in many other ways beside playing music. I often use it as a recorder for lectures that I have during my study. I usually sit in front of the class to be as close to my lecturer as possible. Because the main purpose of MP3 player is for playing music, the voice recorder function is usually not very good. However, it also depends on how lucky you are to get one good device. It is useful not only for recording lectures but also for an interview session where I need to pay more attention on several details. Believe me, it helps very much.

Talking to yourself is also a useful habit since it can help your brain develop broader horizon on one topic. Great ideas can easily pop from this activity, which is adequately documented. So, I recommend this device for you who like writing and composing some music.

How Safe is a Diet?

Written on December 20th, 2010 by Yromano shouts

How Safe is a DietYo-yo diet can be classified as one among several types of popular diets. It is often called as “weight cycling” due to its cyclical pattern of recurring loss and gain of bodyweight. Some of the most popular manners for this are skipping meals and consuming very few calories. Despite the fact that it is very popular among dieters, it is proven unsuccessful and even harmful means of weight reduction program. Dieters often gain initial hit in the first several days, but because the body needs much more in return, the weight loss obtained from the process often becomes hard to endure for long. The result is clear, dieters regain their lost weight.

The name Yo-yo diet was taken from the nature of a toy yo-yo. It was first coined by Kelly D. Brownell, Ph.D, an American scientist and esteemed expert on obesity and weight control at Yale University. The up-down action of the toy resembles the reactions of the body toward starvation. When the body feels that it is running out of energy, it kicks on its famine response, i.e a defense mechanism that aims to protect fat stores by using up lean tissue and muscle for energy instead. This, in turn, weakens the stability of muscles. Because the amount of muscle in the body is directly proportional to metabolic rate, a loss of muscle also means the loss of metabolic rate. While this process seems natural in the case of actual famine, it is not acceptable for being a regular basis for weight-loss diet.

The yo-yo diet operates in a similar manner that it becomes harder each time a dieter wants to lose weight. As the yo-yo comes closer to the end of its string, the plastic spool starts spinning less rapidly. In the similar process, the yo-yo diet follower may find the goal of reducing weight more and more difficult to maintain, leading him towards depression and low motivation. As soon as the dieter starts making an effort to eat normally again, all the weight regained will be amassed in the form of fat. The yo-yo diet essentially gets in the way with a healthy body’s normal fat-to-muscle ratio, which is the most important aspect of good health.

In order to prevent the side effects of yo-yo diet, excessive irregular diets should be avoided. Very strict diet is not only harmful for health but also hard to maintain. Unstable bodyweight tends to lower good cholesterol (the LDL) and disrupts the bloodflow to the heart which, at the end, may trigger heartattack. WHO sources state that safe weight reduction ranges around 2-3 lbs per week. Experts agree that the yo-yo diet is not a healthy way to lose weight in the long run. However, alternatives that help dieters lose their excess poundage without altering the body’s fat to muscle ratio do exist.

Waking up Your Child in the Morning

Written on April 14th, 2010 by Yromano shouts

Waking up Your Child
One of the frustrating morning routines for most parents like you might be the time when you awaking your child. For many bed-heads, this means they would be late for school and/or any other activities. Calm down. Remember that you or your husband once also had difficulties waking up in the morning as a child. Instead of laying a finger on them, here are few tips that would help you awaking your child easily. It might not be an overnight miracle, but with persistency and determination, eventually you would have your little ones jump out of bed enthusiastically.

1. Observe your child’ sleeping habits
Some kids are seemed to be born with natural alarm inside, which is a gift for their working parents. However, if your little ones are having difficulties getting up early, s/he might spend less time sleeping because s/he takes longer time to fall asleep. Observe your child to see why s/he has difficulties sleeping; ask him/her if needed. You need to make sure that your child does not drink or eat food or beverages loaded with sugar and/or caffeine in the afternoon. Sugary food tends to make him/her hyperactive and has difficulties sleeping during the night.

2. Make sure your child can sleep soundly
If the child does not have problems in getting sleep, s/he may indeed need more time to sleep. The human body would require a person to sleep longer especially in times of illness, seasonal changes and after a day filled with activities. Getting comfortable bedding and pillows is also important for your child’s sleep quality. By getting sufficient, quality sleep at night, your child is likely to wake up easily in the morning. However, urging the children to go to bed early can also be a big challenge for you.

3. Use varying methods to awaken your child
Please bear in mind that not all children respond to the same waking-up call/method. Some may get up once you turn on the bedroom light. Some only need to be touched gently, tenderly called by name. Others may require you to take the blanket and call their name with authoritative voice. Meanwhile some others would instantly jump out of bed if they listen to the soundtrack of their favorite cartoon movie. A friend of mine taught her daughter about dancing time (this is a time in the morning when she would play a cartoon soundtrack in the morning to wake up her daughter. Then they would dance together to the music). When she goes to her bedroom, she would ask what time was it. Her daughter would jump out of bed saying that it was dancing time. For my friend’s daughter, the best method is to make her enthusiastic and positive in the morning. Reinforce positive thoughts and attitudes daily, and avoid using negative sentences and harsh words when waking up child in the morning. Be patient to understand the best method to make your dear little one listens to your voice and get up.

4. Teach child to be grateful and have cheerful attitude
You can do this by first being grateful at the things you have, and be cheerful in doing your own tasks. Then, you could teach your child to be grateful and cheerfully obey commands. You can teach them to understand about consequences (either good or bad) that come after they do something. For example, if your child obeys your commands (which are spoken out for their own good), they would have time to eat breakfast favorite on certain days. To add dramatic effect, you may leave child’s door room open so your child could smell the tasty breakfast.

5. Teach child to have his/her own good habit
Teaching your child to have a good habit is not easy but it is not impossible either. You need to be patient in encouraging your child to get used to the habit of enthusiastically wake up in the morning. By inviting the children to experience their own learning, you are indirectly preparing them to the real world.

Written on April 7th, 2010 by Yromano shouts

Saying I Love YouSaying “I love you” is not easy for some people. Especially for an inexperienced, they are afraid if their love does not be accepted so they have to gain bitter experience.

It is important to make sure that there would be no rejection when you say I love you. If you believe that would be acceptable, then do not hesitate to say it. But if there is sign of your love one’s response would be as a friend to you only, it is better not to say I love you otherwise you would just get disappointed.

As if you are in a war, to say love to your love requires a good strategy and practice to declare it. The expression of the love would be great if being said by telling face to face. It is better not say love through intermediaries, because it can induce a feeling of love that is not serious.

To say that you love someone is not only with words, but also may be accompanied by additional preferred objects or objects that represent your feelings, for instance chocolate or flowers. Find the right time and place to express your love. It is not good saying I love you when s/he is sad or angry. The best time to say love is leisure time or in holiday. Choose a romantic place too. So prepare your self well before expressing your love, and good luck!
