This research concludes that a bad sleeping habit might expose yourself to diabetes.
So in short, there are two effects of bad sleeping habit to your Diabetes risks:
- Direct effect. The research found that the insulin level in your blood is reduced significantly when you didn’t get enough sleep.
- Indirect effect. Bad sleeping habit increases your chance of developing obesity. And being obese gives you higher risk to get diabetes
Short summarize of Diabetes taken from Wikipedia:
- Diabetes is an illness where the blood sugar level in a body is very high. This high level of blood sugar will cause the body to get easily fatigue, excessive urination, blurred vision, impotence for male, and bad ability in healing wounds (difficulty to stop bleeding).
- There are three types of Diabetes, Type 1, Type 2 and Diabetes resulted from pregnancy.
- Type 1 is characterized by low insulin production caused by the autoimmune destruction of the cells that produce insulin.
- Type 2 is characterized by insulin resistance by the cells in the body.
- To some women with certain genetic condition, when they are pregnant, the pregnancy hormone will cause the insulin resistance, symptoms of Type 2 diabetes.
So what should we do to stay healthy and stay away from Diabetes?
- Obviously, have a better sleeping habit. Have enough rest every night. Don’t forgot to switch off your light. Sleeping in total darkness will help to beef up your immune system.
- Stay fit. Don’t let yourself enjoy the comfort of being overweight, let alone obese.
- Stop smoking (hmm.. this is like talking to a mirror … 🙁 )
- And don’t forgot to pray … 🙂
Hmm.. this should become a good reason to motivate myself to stop smoking keep on reducing the number of my daily cigarettes consumption (and eventually stop), and kick off that ‘getting fit’ program that has long forgotten delayed by complicated reason.
Happy New Year and stay healthy people!

Last weekend I went to Tanjung Pinang in Bintan Island to visit my cousin. She’s been staying there since 2003 but this will be my first time to visit her (sigh.. what a great cousin I am :-(). She’s staying there with her husband which is working in the Airbase in that town.
The ferry from Singapore to Tanjung Pinang departs Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal (take MRT to Bedok, and then take SBS Bus No. 35. The bus’s final stop is the ferry terminal). But since I was in hurry, I took a cab. To my dismay, I must waited for 1.5 hours before the ferry arrives. Unlike Singapore to Batam, the ferry frequency for Singapore to Tanjung Pinang is much less. I hope this schedule can help you to plan your travel better (unlike mine :-))

She is 1.5 years old and tantrum-ridden toddler 😛 Need sometime before I could get along with her. But I think she had recognize me as her uncle 😛 She did cry when I waved goodbye and left for Singapore (which I don’t know whether she cried because her father or me, since my brother-in-law accompanied me going to the harbor)

I received collection of Banyolan Suroboyoan (Humor ala Surabaya) from my little brother. If you happen to be have a good command of Surabaya’s dialect of Javanese, these files might help you to put a smile or giggle in your face.

But if you don’t understand Javanese, these are for you:
I visited my friend for a sleep over. He said, “Sorry, but tonight you’ll sleep on the floor”. And I said, “Damn gravity, you got me again. You know how long I have been dreaming of sleeping on the wall, or the ceiling.”
Before I went to sleep on the floor, I asked my friend, “How many rooms this house has?”. He said, “Many. This is the room where I watch TV. That is the room where I always take a piss. And that is the the room where I keep my stove and fridge. And over there is the room where I put my bed. And out there is the room with grass-floor complete with a fountain. And finally that is the room which belongs to my neighbor … Oh wait…” (by Mitch Hedberg, RIP)
There were two vampires called Vlad and Dracul flying around looking for prey. But that day was Christmas eve, so everyone were at home with their family. Tired of flying, Vlad gave up and went home. But Dracul was very persistent and continued in his searching. Near the dawn, Dracul went home with drips of blood in his lips.
Vlad was surprised and asked him, “Where do you got the prey? You must be fully sated.”.
Dracul then said, “Do you want to have what I had?”
Vlad nodded his head. “Follow me!”, said Dracul.
Both of them then flying and landed on the roof of a building. Dracul asked Vlad, “Do you see that pole in center of that field?”.
Vlad answered, “Yes. The one with the flag waving around right?”.
Dracul then slowly uttered,”I didn’t”.
