Posture

Posture is the position of the body while you are sitting or walking. Good posture can keep your spine healthy and it will not cause a back serious problem. One of the most important reasons for bad posture is slouching this is means bending or hanging your back downward while you  are walking or sitting.

Nowadays, the posture of some children is getting worse and the main reason is modern technology. Children are spending more than half the day sitting down next to the television, computers, internet or phones. They have no time for any good activities like sport. The technology has made our children lazy.

Children should learn how to get a good posture and how to minimize their back problems in the future. The best way is to limit the amount of time that the children spend hunched over a keyboard and be active as often as they can.

Phoebe and the Smoke detector

It's always so annoying to wake up at midnight because of a loud noise! Phoebe faced this problem when she wokeup with the smoke alarm beeping.She tried to turn it off but she couldn't. She disconnected it but it never stopped.Shw rolled it in a blanket and threw it in a rubbish chute.
After a while she heared a beeping sound coming from outside the door. She was surprised,  and she said "how did you come back". She opened the door when she heared a man's voice. She saw a fireman there he had brought back the smoke alarm.
She asked him how to stop the alarm from beeping and he told her there was a restart button. When he left she pressed the restart button many times after she found it under the table but the smoke alarm was wrecked.
This video shows that she never checked the smoke detector and she didn't care about it.But infact the smoke detector is so important as it may stop a big fire from happening. If there is any damage to a smoke detector you may not know there is a fire unless it becomes big and uncontrollable.

The Health Expo 2011

Last Thursday, a Health Expo  held at TAFE. It was a new experience for me and also it was good and intrested . A lot of associations and foundations were there to give us an information about there  services or products.
One of these foundations was Asthma Foundation, its a foundation that can help asthma patients how to communicate with there doctors? What kind of questions they should ask the doctors? The tests that can help to detect the disease. This foundation was important to me because I am an asthma patient and its important to me to know every thing about my disease.
Some of the other foundations and associations were Isagenix, Baton Twirling, Jeremia and others.
I had a little trip over the expo and I sold a raffell ticket with Kathy we had fun, also Andrew did.

Other students sold food that they made.It was useful and funny at the same time we enjoyed it.

The Easter Holidays

After a long time of studying and working it was the time to have a break .It was the Easter Holiday.
Actually my holiday was lovely, I spent it with my husband and his family. The first week was shopping and shopping because winter was coming and I had to prepare everything and also I had to prepare the holiday stuff. I love shopping.
On the morning of Thursday 21 of April  my husband, his family and I went to Lake Macquarie.I couldn't imagine that a one hour and 20 minutes trip could take two hours and 20 minutes! We were stuck in traffic, because a lot of people were going away to enjoy the holiday.
Finally we arrived to Umina Beach resort . It was full of intertainment Gym, pool, kids club, parks and because it was Easter time they had carnivals and activities everyday .
On Friday my husband and I went for an ocean trip by boat.It was marvellous and  Lion island was stunning. Saturday was raining. It was bad luck we weren't able to spend the day at the beach as we planned but it was good to relax and watch the rain drop over the trees. I really enjoyed that. Later that day  we went to the Easter carnival. All the children did sand painting.It wasn't just the children but also the mums and dads. It was fun.
At midnight, we all decided to go home because it would be better than the early morning to avoid the traffic.
Sunday was my friend's engagement party. I spent all day preparing myself for the lovely night .We had a nice time dancing, eating and  having fun.
Monday and Tuesday was  relaxing at home and preparing to be back to TAFE and work.I also did a bit of shopping.
I hope you all enjoyed your holiday and had a great time with your friends and family. I can say that my holiday was great because I like  spending time with family. Happy Easter.

How to increase Vitamin D

Vitamin D is very important, it maintains bone density, helps to manage weight, improves heart health and improves the immune system.
There is a lot of ways to increase vitamin D level without hurting our bodies.
The sun is the most important source of vitamin D, but spending a long time under sun may cause skin cancer. To avoid cancer, we should spend 15-20 minutes with sunscreen.
Also fish is a good source of vitamin D .We can find it in salmon, tuna and sardines. Its good to have fish  twice a week.
The other foods that provide vitamin D are eggs, mushrooms and milk.Also the cod liver oil is a good source of vitamin D and its available as capsules.
Every woman should make sure to take enough vitamin D to be healthy.
