Diet
Diet has been the most complex issue among teenager all over the world. For most of the reason is their environment. For example is for those who lived in a community full of bullying. They who have been bullied pressured to go over the edge to be someone who isn’t them. Actually, physic is not the only aspect included in health state. Mentality is the most crucial thing required to be ‘healthy’. That explains the case above where mental affect on how will they take their self into eating disorders.
Eating is crucial for our health and growth. Teenager supposed to eat for about 2000 calories per day, balanced with exercises. A healthy diet consists of 3 times meal a day with the right portion. Basically, you can eat anything without having those fearsof being fat, with the proper portion and nutrition. A healthy plate provides a balance amount of carbohydrate, protein and fibers from the vegetables or fruits. Pay attention to the concept of stop when you feel full and remember that food is for your body growth need, not as an entertainment when you felt bored.
In the other way, never leave your stomach empty. Our stomach metabolism decreased within 5 hours of being empty. In order to prevent starving, you can actually have your 2 times snack in a day in the middle of breakfast and lunch, also between lunch and dinner. Somehow most of them would think snack is the one that will make you fat. Depends on what snack and the amount of the intake.

You can pick assorted fruits, yoghurt, and high fiber snack in the right portion.

Living Nature
I was climbing the stairs. Walking with half-opened eyes. Every step I took become more precious than before. Reaching the high blue sky, made me grateful to be in this ‘another life.’
I could feel the breeze right into my skin. My eyes were refreshed by the awesome view of an enormous mountain of Salak, standing perpendicularly, accompanied with Pajajaran Mountain besides. The sun shined so bright. I was singing with the birds and rap-ing with the cricket. Believe me you could not found any of what I was experiencing other than here. My beloved home Sentul City.
10 years. Maybe more. I have been here, among the nature. I was sitting with my mom at my balcony. A little chit-chat with a tea and some cookies brought me to for about 10 years ago, Trees all around, few houses, and no neighborhood. Even the population of quail was taking over our territory. Like they tried to kick us out of their area.
I wondered how much Sentul had been developed, even harder to follow what is on here now. I made friends here, a lot of friends. One of them is my childhood friend, which is my best friend, Vanessa.
Having a birthday party was an excitement. Opening all of the present from people was the climax. Half of mine was opened, getting ready for the next one. My hand and someone’s was met in one of the biggest present I have ever got. With a glimpse of tension, I looked into the eyes. And it was she, with her beautiful long hair. It was the beginning of our friendship.
10 years had pass. It was getting longer. Like usual, her and me started Sunday with church and some free time. Weekend. Done with routine activity, now some of the extraordinary one. These two girls loved to eat. With a pair of rumbling stomach, two maidens sat on a non-soft-couch, stared at their ‘Ayam Penyet’ as it said on the menu. Raw vegetables, condiment, the chicken and rice served in traditional bamboo matting.
After having lunch, she invited me to have some desert with her. She was an expert in culinary. So I trusted her to then visited ‘Es Doger,’ having a cup of mixed ice-syrup-avocado-tapai-and some kind of black beans. Just say them as traditional ice cream. Just to make it look ‘cool’, though it was truly cool.
Perfect spot for refreshing, my parent took me to somewhere behind my house. Some say that there was a spring there. Surprisingly one and a half hour not to be in vain. A gigantic waterfall blew my hair away. The water was absolutely cold and the wind was extremely strong as we approach the center.
No need to go far away, my mom and I had some monthly expenditure at local market. Anything could be found, started from vegetable, meat, fish, toiletries, clothes, CD, until jewels. I got some CDs that my little sister needs for her fashion show in Bellanova Country Mall near the tollgate, next week. I have planned to watch ‘Inception’ movie first before the show.
Boy friend left. My doctor called me that I have to change my brace less today. So I went to ‘kiddies dental care’ that located for about 10-minutes far from my home. It was hurt so much so I decided to call Vanessa and ask her if she willing to accompanied me to throw away this excess pain with swimming in ‘Mentari Golf’ as some of provided facilities. At least I could also burn some calories inside the water besides jogging track.
Ended up in my bed, hiding beneath my blanket, even with no air-conditioner needed. Looked up to my glowing stars on the ceiling, wondered to have a great future later like what I have in my childhood life now. Without exception, everyone I loved must live near by me. Here. Even my future husband, or he should get himself out from my curved heart. A big heart for my exotic, precious, home sweet home.
