Happy birthday to me

Well, I turned 39 recently, just a few days ago. We went on a staycation in Sentosa, and had a great time. The kids really enjoyed themselves. I would recommend it, the Shangri-La hotel, Rasa Sentosa, especially for families. The service is great, they got little things that make it special, like free small ice-cream cones distributed throughout the resort in the afternoon, a kid's club with an awesome indoor playground, and organised activities at different times of the day, and a swimming pool with intermittent activities like water polo, and running along a rubber mat floating on the water, and doing a cannonball at the end of it. Great fun. Not cheap, though.

Anyway, that aside, I'm coming to the realisation that I'm getting to the age where I better pay more attention to my health. Doctors are not immune to diseases, after all, and I have found myself putting on quite a bit of weight recently. Took up a dieting programme about a month ago, which bases its principles on medical science, and I'm happy to report that I've lost quite a bit of kilos, and I feel healthier too.

I guess I just want to say to all my readers out there: (because you know I care about you, right)

Don't take your health for granted. Have some control when you're eating, do regular exercise. And especially if you're above 40 years of age, do regular screening for basic things like your blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar. Of course, please don't smoke, and don't take alcohol excessively. You'll find your sense of well-being improving.

A good staycation helps, as well.
