SNSD fans (S♡NE) have put up an advertisement on newspaper to celebrate YoonA 21st Birthday and also carried out some charity activities .By looking at the advertisement which already able to feel the love of the fans to YoonA.
YoonA's birthday is 30th May, the reason of the birthday advertisement released on 28th was to consider that if the advertisement were released on weekend, many students and working peoples might not be able to see it.
YoonA has celebrated her birthday earlier with a simple birthday party organized by the fans in SM company and other SNSD members also with her on that day. Besides, SNSD fans already have donated 2 million won to the charity unit under YoonA name ^^.
During the broadcast of SBS 'Family Outing 2' on the 30th May,Wondergirls 'Sunye' revealed that, when Taecyeon first time saw SNSD, he was so excited and this eventually became the hot topic. Wondergirls was the guests for that day FO2 recording. And both Taecyeon (2pm) and Wondergirls are under the same entertainment company 'JYP'. During this day of recording,when Taecyeon was being asked "Who he like among SNSD members?", then Sunye teasing Taecyeon "I know who you want to say,so just be honest".Even Ye eun also mentioned "We often heard Taecyeon talked about SNSD",which made Taecyeon very nervous with that. Taecyeon and SNSD previously met on a show whereby 2pm were the regular guests,and when they are discussing about this,Sunye described how Taecyeon reacted at that time "After they met,Taecyeon was so happy and excited".While Yoona on the other hand said "We dont know about it". And it ended up under the pressurize of other family members,Taecyeon carefully revealed the truth. Taecyeon,being the one who will always changes his ideal types when talked about it, honestly said "That time my ideal type was Yuri". But at this point of time,Sunye stepped out and said "you said is Yuri,but that time actually is Yoona".And finally Taecyeon confessed "Actually I like Yoona" disclosed what's the feeling he had for Yoona now which caused the family members to end up cheering and screaming in joy.
During the broadcast of FO2 on the 30th,Wondergirls are the guests for the day. While on their way to their destination on the bus,Family members discussed about who they want to sit together and get closer with.HeelChul chose his ideal type,Wondergirls Sohee,Yoon Sang Hyun chose Yoobin. When everyone is asking Taecyeon chose who to get closer with between Wondergirls and SNSD, initially he said:" I liked Yuri first," then Sunye revealed that, "That's not true. He liked Yoona from the very beginning." After that Taecyeon confess :"I want to get closer with Yoona",which created an uproar among Wondergirls members.
Besides, also when Yoona said she wanted to get closer with Taecyeon too,Taecyeon got excited and immediately kneeled infront of her. On the next episode,both Yoona and Sunye chose Taecyeon,but who Taecyeon will choose?
Well,let's look forward to the coming episode ^^

Neo Bob did a surver amongst 541 people from 10th till 28th May on ‘Which is the leading pop girlgroup for mass culture?’ and the results show So Nyeo Shi Dae at #1 with 38.2% of the votes. Groups WonderGirls and KARA are at #2 and #3 position on the survey results with 35.6% and 23.4% of the votes.
Shin JaeKyu representative of Neo Bob said, “By ‘pop girl’ we are talking about the leader of trends amongst the new generation females. Through this survey, we got to know how much of such an influence So Nyeo Shi Dae, WonderGirls and KARA have on their fans. So Nyeo Shi Dae, who is at #1, are not only leading in terms of their albums, but also in terms of vvarious genres like CF appearances and corporate sales. So Nyeo Shi Dae is representative pop girlgroup who inspires the 3040 ‘uncle’ fans.”
The representative added, “WonderGirls is the first domestica girlgroup who has successfully advanced into the American market. WonderGirls, to their fans, is a girlgroup who shows their inspiration and hardwork for new challenges, and are known for being the cutie-sexy girlgroup. And KARA is a team known for being outspoken and reflecting the latest trends.”
At this day, in beginning they have dated on a coffee shop to talked about what happened few days ago. At this time, Seohyun said:" We have met each other around 22 days passed". then she added:" Because it was 22 days already, i would like to do something meaningful". She then silenced for while and come up an idea said:" let do about something simple ^^, how about blood donation".
Then Yonghwa responded:" Although never thought about donating blood before, but it would be nice to do something meaningful with special one (Seohyun ^^) , let do it". Then they off to blood donation place. Besides, this was first time 'Yonghyun' couple revealed their ID card in TV when they being asked for ID card by the blood donation staff.
Also because of there's in need for A type blood,Seohyun said "Blood should be share".Both Seohyun and Yonghwa are A type blood. But unfortunately,after a checkup it was found out that Yonghwa cannot donate his blood due to he just returned from Japan lately, the country that had a lot of H1N1 cases. And taking acne medication was also one of the reason.Seohyun then uttered "Heeeee~~~~~~",and felt a bit disappointed about it. Seohyun showed an aegyo which is slightly different as usual.When Yonghwa called her "Hyun~~", Seohyun replied "Why you always said Hyun~~".Upon seeing this scene, SNSD Sooyoung said "This is Seohyun ageyo",which surprised the people around. But this time,she really showed a very cute ageyo. In addition,Seohyun is very healthy which the examine showed that her blood is rich in iron. The nurse who checked on the blood also said "Do you eat food that are rich in iron usually?".Seohyun then said "Healthy blood will soon be share",and really into blood donating which let Yonghwa felt ashamed about himself.
Seohyun cute aegyo "Heeeeee~~~~~" ^^

MBC "We got married" Yonghyun couple,in order to commemorate "TwoTwoDay",Jung Yong Hwa and Seohyun did a special event,which they went for blood.donation "TwoTwoDay" is an event that recently held for young couple to commemorate their 22 days of dating. Differently from the original plan, Jung Yong Hwa didn't donate his blood instead he danced "Oh!" in front of Seohyun and also help Seohyun do massage on her legs ^^. Whats the reason behind for Jung Yong Hwa to giving up blood donation and let Seohyun to donate blood alone, the answer will be revealed on 29th "We got married". In addition,after the blood donation, the 'Yonghyun' couple went for a movie session.Till now,both of them still haven't get a chance to hold hands,whether both of them will have any further intimate skin contact in the cinema or not, it surely will get all the attentions of the viewers.

SNSD Sunny gag sense is really good & unique. KBS variety show "Invincible Youth" PD Kim praised her "Personality is good, know how to make good use of the recording atmosphere". When Sunny first joined "Invincible Youth",she does not seems to gain much popularity.But because of overseas schedules and need to leave "Invincible Youth",Sunny showed her higher sense of presence.Recently at "Invincible Youth",at the corner whereby viewers wrote letters and compared which members got the most letters,Sunny superiority crowned the 1st place among G7. Recently,Sunny together with "Gag concert" members perfectly acted "The world that upset me" as a drunkard. Gagmen all asked Sunny "Quickly join Gag Concert". Sunny has a great sense of extraordinary gag verbal and physical,and the talent of capturing the right time,the ability of using voice imitation and "aegyo Zzang" to create a scenario, which show her great sense of gag. And she is performing all kinds of shows which different from those whom scenes always being cut and worried about broadcast rate because of image.Even if she retired from SNSD, in variety show there's always a place for Sunny to shine. On the 19th,Sunny together with Yuri and 4minute Hyunah have carried out the last recording of the show,and bid farewell to her pet cow (Pureum). For this, Sunny showing her sincerity by bringing foods that she brought from her home for her pet cow , and shed tears when bidding farewell with the pet cow (Pureum). During the recording,even if she's not feeling well, Sunny always spent her time looking after and accompany her pet cow. To Sunny,who had already built a strong and deep relationship with Pureum so this time is hard for Sunny to bid farewell also. This is exactly like the variety version of "Voice of cow bell".
On latest "Invincible Youth" recording, the G7 members start " Eating watermelon" storm match.
That day, G7 members came to a fruit farm, and they separated to two group to start "Eating watermelon" match. Yuri & Sunny are the type who usually doesn't eat much on their daily meal but at that day they have insist on finished eating the watermelon till peels left. Both of them faces were stained with watermelon seed and made everyone burst into laughter after seeing it.
Besides, that day G7 members were directed to a mountain area to collect some Korean herb and 2 person per pair. At this moment, 'Taewoo' oppa volunteer himself to go with Yuri as pair. Since it's been a while Taewoo oppa to have a walk with Yuri so he's a bit excited^^, then he asked Yuri:" Do you believe oppa (Taewoo)?" , Yuri replied:" mom said it's better not to trust you" and brought much laughter after hearing Yuri witty answer. However, Taewoo seem like do not giving up easily and he left a video message to Yuri mom on the spot and showed her sweet side.
This going to be last "Invincible Youth" recording for Yuri & Sunny so remember to catch this precious episode which will be aired on coming 28th May.
NOW IT'S INVINCIBLE YOUTH ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^__________^
I had got to known these kids for several years,they had gone through so much and walked so far till now,they had reached the peak.And behind all this success is full with all their hard work and what they had did since back which everyone able to observe it easily. The leader,the one that who had always working very hard for this group-Taeyeon.On the stage,this girl had always showed explosive power, but privately she is the one with mature,steady,quiet personality,and due to this that's the reason why she's being chosen as the leader.During their first debut staged,once she asked me "can we do it?" ,because she's the leader,so she always need to say "Annyeong Hasaeyo, We are So Nyuh Shi Dae ". And "Annyeong Hasaeyo,We are So Nyuh Shi Dae " "Please give us SNSD more support" "I'm SNSD Taeyeon" are the phrases that this child had to say it everyday. Jessica,the one that always give others a feeling of proud,arrogant,not easy to get along with, so her first impression for others is not really that positive.When they first debuted,she will always stand behind Taeyeon and speaks softly :"I'm Jessica".On stage,always smiled broadly,arrogantly and do well her part,so when members watched their performances through Tv, they will say "that's Jessica".She don't really like to greet people, I did asked her why,she said :"Greet,why, we are very close isn't it" then I will think about it,ahhh~that's Jessica ^^. Sunny is a girl who likes to do aegyo,always boldly showing her true self in front of other members, because of her own personality, she's very adorable.And also due to sometimes she will be very quiet,so she got a nickname called "double side Sunkyu". Miyoung (TIffany), the one that I'm very close to among the members.When they just debuted,she and taeyeon seems to be the diplomat of SNSD, the steadiness of Taeyeon and the adorable of Miyoung, let others easy to remember and recognize "SNSD". Maybe because of her charma, when people see her they will tend to smile without notice about it. And sometimes,when she show her temper or anger,she will sit at one corner by herself, she is really cute." Are you ok, Hey~" this is how Miyoung get to greet people.
Hyoyeon has an innocent personality,but sometimes she's very mature and to act as if she's the oldest, and sometime always use that tone which a sunbae(senior) will use like "Can I do this?" "You can't do it like this" "You can do this one"...But sometimes she will use aegyo "hmmm...ok".
Yuri is more on shy personality,always stand behind pf other members during they first debuted, but this year Yuri had changed a lot,she become more lively and can often heard the laughter "Haha",and because of her laughter is so unique,people are able to remember it just by listen to it once.
Sooyoung is the type with bright character, and also she got a slim & tall body figure always get envied by other members. She is good at making jokes which wherever Sooyoung is there, the place will always full of "haha" smiling voices.
YoonA, she is really pretty and loved by everyone. Yoona has good manner which she always do her greeting: "Hi, I'm So Nyeo Shi Dae 's YoonA, please support So Nyeo Shi Dae", And she always do it with proper bowing. YoonA also is a child with bright character and she always making jokes for the members but somehow it's really not that funny so she got "cold YoonA" nickname with her.
Seohyun, she is most proper artist which I've ever seen, she always said:" 'YES' 'OK' , sometime she will bring out some herb from her bags and made me curious with it, then Seohyun replied: " If wish to live longer life, of course need to take care of your health" , "Cannot eat these, if you eat these you're going to die soon". She is such an interesting kid..hehhehe ^^.

Were you like me when you were a young girl? Did you gaze at the glossy magazine covers at the end of the check-out stands when you went grocery shopping with your mom? Didn’t we all learn from this that women HAD to be pretty with perfectly contoured bodies, chiseled knees, and China-white teeth? Do you remember studying the latest fashions which were draped ever-so-teasingly on these luscious role models of ours? Do you remember thinking, “I want to look like THAT and have killer abs like that bikini model. That’s what I remember.Back then I figured that THIS is what I needed to look like to be considered BE-autiful and DE-sirable. My hair had to be perfect with shimmering highlights. My thighs had to be firm and svelte--without dimples of any sort. I had to have thick eyelashes which beckoned “Come Hither!” Looking at these magazine covers each week steeped a huge, self-inflicted homework assignment within my youthful, girlish psyche--making sure I felt the pressure of attaining an AWEsome Appearance!
Regardless of age, the pressures which are placed on women in our society do affect our belief systems about what we need to do to be attractive and successful in life. This pressure not only can motivate us to strive for that Cover Girl look, but it can also instill feelings of inadequacy, not quite measuring up, or even giving up before we start! Goals which seem so unreachable can defeat us before we ever enlist to become our best selves. From my experience, I would have to say that appearance is the best way to make a good first impression. And let’s remember one of my favorite sayings:
“You never have a second chance to make a first impression”.
I live by this motto. I really do! When people meet you for the very first time, they have split-second judgments regarding how you come across. Do you look vibrant, rested, healthy, athletic, studious, intelligent, or well groomed? Or do you exude lackluster energy, depression, fatigue, negativity, stress, or worse yet—profound self-neglect? People will make their initial impressions within the first three minutes of meeting you. What do you want them to know about you from your appearance? Do you feel you have the proper tools and skill sets to become the most radiant you, or are you somewhat resigned to the limited look and feel of your genetic predispositions. Other things like your vocabulary and general communication skills also have a bearing on how you are received by others.But truly, your appearance, like the cover of a book, will give people their first clues about the rest of you--what’s inside you.
I want to share with you some treasures of truth which I’ve collected along the way. To be at our very best, we need to understand our physiology—our internal chemistry of our bodies. The truth of the matter is that your physiology affects your health, and your health affects your appearance and energies. This being so, it stands to reason that we should all seek the best way—the most conducive way to healing and regeneration. Onlythen can we live the most abundantly blessed life with true JOY, healthy self-interest, and self-esteem.
As BraveHeart women, we can truly affect our appearance and our ultimate states of health and well being by making lifestyle choices that contribute to the pH balance of our blood and tissues. I know you’ve probably heard of the pH factor when it comes to shampoos or skin toners. You might remember that the pH of your Jacuzzi, swimming pool, or fish tank is something that has to be correctly balanced. We all know that our body temperature is set at 98.6. We don’t vary from that number very much unless we get sick with a fever, or get too cold and go into hypothermia. To remain healthy and comfortable, we must keep our body temperature around 98.6.
Our body pH (pH stands for the power of hydrogen) is also engineered with a specific setting.It is balanced at 7.365, which is alkaline.The pH scale goes from 1 to 14 with 7 being neutral. Anything below 7 is acidic, and anything above 7 is called base or alkaline. The fact that we can make conscious, health-minded choices which will keep our bodies in a more perfect state of pH balance is an exciting discovery, especially when we consider how this also affects our appearance, health, and energy levels. I want to tell you my story so you can appreciate the journey I went on to find “my Cover Girl” look, and optimum health.
Like I said earlier, I wanted to achieve my best womanly appearance. I wanted to remainslim and athletic because I liked how clothing hung on the mannequins in the mall--not to mention the lacy lingerie in Victoria’s Secret. I truly wanted to discover the easiest and healthiest way to achieve my optimum health, weight, and appearance. I had experimented a bit back in high school with high-protein diets (which left me constipated, congested, and with bad breath). I didn’t want to battle the yo-yo effect of fluctuating pounds. I knew what size I wanted to be. I just wanted to figure out how to maintain that size while feeding myself well without the starvation techniques that had left me weakened in the past.
Once I understood the pH scale and which foods and drinks were more alkaline, like the human body, it became easy! Unwanted pounds melted off almost magically and I rarely or never got sick. Not even when everyone else was sniffling and sneezing during the holidays. I noticed an energy level which was boundless, and to me-- that was priceless. To look how I wanted and feel vibrantly healthy was such an exciting prospect. Once I grooved into this way of pH balanced living, eating, and thinking, it became second nature to me, and it has remained so--even today. Now I automatically make good alkaline, dietary choices because they always guarantee my desirable weight and best energy reserves. I also keep a regular exercise program as a compliment to alkalizing. I run three miles every other day and then do Kundalini Yoga on the alternate days to keep myself limber and flexible. I am 56 years young, the mother of 4, the grandmother of 3, and I’ve never felt better than I do now! To me, this is miraculous, and it’s part of why our book publications are called The pH Miracle.
How did I first become interested in this pH phenomenon? It all started when I decided to marry a University of Utah tennis player named Rob Young. We both started to pay attention to ideas about health and wellness so we could keep Rob at his peak tennis performance. We noticed he played better when we removed dense proteins like meats, eggs, and cheeses from his diet. We noticed he had less recovery time and less lactic acid build-up in his muscles. We experimented with the idea of becoming vegetarians, thinking that would give Rob the best energy edge to win his tennis matches. We did, however run into some problems with this idea. Once we took out those animal protein sources, we increased the carbohydrate loads with pasta, rice and potatoes. We also surmised that carrot cake was an excellent choice, just because it contained carrots! Consequently,Rob felt sluggish, and fatigued. The fact was we were now carbo-loading up our diets and the switch to diet soft drinks wasn’t helping the situation either. The artificial sweeteners were not helping us stay fit. Weight gain became a problem as well as other allergic conditions. We caught more flues and colds. We knew we had to make other changes, but weren’t sure where to head with it.
After Rob finished his college tennis days, our lives got wrapped up in raising 4 kids. Eventually, he decided to study more about the blood and tissues, becoming a microbiologist, a Naturopathic MD, and a nutritionist. He perfected a way to view live blood cells (from German research) and started to develop ideas and theories about what diet would be best to maintain pH homeostasis.We also learned during this period that the body has an alkalinizing buffering system to assure the pH of the blood and tissues remains alkaline. As a self-preservation mode, the body will go to great lengths to maintain its slightly alkaline fluid environment. If the body or tissues becomes too acidic through diet or stress, it will tap into alkalizing buffering reserves-- like calcium from the bones and magnesium from the muscles to neutralize acidity and maintain its delicate balance of 7.365. Our body is so intelligent that it will do this in an effort to keep us alive and well. You may know people who have been able to eat and drink anything they wanted with no ill effect. This would most probably be due to their strong constitutions, including a strong alkalinizing buffering system, a good lymphatic system, and good genetics.
Once we learned the significance of pH balancing for the blood and tissues, we had to discover and research which foods and drinks were acidic and which were alkaline. We could then create a new food pyramid which would contribute to health and vitality instead of sickness and degeneration. Everything we eat or drink metabolizes down into an ash residue which can be neutral, acidic, or alkaline. Acidic diets high in animal proteins, dairy products, carbohydrates, and fermented foods like alcohol, vinegar, and soy sauce can cause the body to manifest with symptoms of sickness and disease. Other foods which create an acid residue ash are coffee, black teas, soft drinks, baked goods, and even high sugar fruits, like bananas, apples, and oranges. As the blood becomes saturated by these types of food and drink, excess fermentation takes place, giving rise to acidic residues in the blood which need to be neutralized. Weight gain is a sure sign of being over acidic, as is water retention. As a protective mechanism, our bodies create fat to bind and hold acid residues away from our vital organs. This is why we pack on pounds just under the skin on our hips, thighs and stomachs. An acidic person can actually look puffy as the body retains water to dilute acids in the system. Edema and puffy bags under the eyes are typical acidic traits.Skin conditions like acne, ruddiness, and blotchiness are also signs that over acidification in the body, causes acids to come to the surface. Even more serious conditions like eczema and psoriasis are manifestations of acids that take a strong hold and erupt through the skin which is sometimes called the “third kidney”, because of its filtering ability. The body can also rob the skin of precious moistures leaving a person looking parched or dehydrated. Premature wrinkling and aging are more prevalent in people who choose an over acidic lifestyle. Many other serious symptoms can appear in the internal environment of our body’s rivers and streams. Eventually they can become sluggish and polluted. If a person doesn’t make changes in their diet and lifestyle and they continue to bombard their systems with acidic foods and drinks, organs and tissues become affected.Diagnoses such as diabetes, cancer, fibro myalgia, and CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome) are common. Acidic diets and lifestyles are so hard on the body that it’s like making an energy withdrawal from our body bank accounts instead of an energy deposit. We always come up with a deficit!
Otto Warburg, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in Medicine in 1932, stated the following:
When the pH is wrong, oxygen falls, cells respire in an anaerobic environment by fermentation giving rise to increased acidity - cancer is a result of an ACID environment. - Otto Warburg, Nobel Prize in Medicine, 1932
The main thing to consider here is that everything we eat and drink affects the way we look, think, act, and feel. If a person chooses a highly acidic diet and lifestyle they set themselves up for proliferation of certain types of microbes which thrive in an acidic terrain. These are referred to as endotoxins and mycotoxins which have yeast and fungal base forms that can wreak havoc in our systems. Many of you have experienced or heard of yeast infections. Sometimes they are re-occurring. Headaches can also be a signal that the brain is somehow connected to a toxic bowel. Just like our earth’s environmental pollution, this needs to be cleaned up in order to bring relief from inflammation and pain. General aches and pains such as in arthritis, bursitis, and even carpal tunnel syndrome involve acidic saturations of the blood, lymph, and affected tissues.
I want to introduce an analogy here so you can think about your cells and how they are suspended in an alkaline fluid. Think of a fish bowl and the fish swimming around in the water. If the fish were to get sick what would be your first inclination? Would you treat the fish, or change the water? Most people would choose to change the fish’s water--the environment he functions in. We realize that the fish needs a properly balanced environment to remain healthy. All of us have witnessed what happens when toxic calamities occur in the ocean. The fish are immediately affected by the change to their alkaline, pH-balanced ocean. Scientists claim that even small changes in the pH of the ocean will affect all life found in it. Think of your own cells as the fish in the fishbowl. Your cells are suspended in an aqueous solution which needs to be maintained as an alkaline environment. The cells can remain healthy as long as this pH factor is maintained. Once that inner terrain is compromised by unhealthy choices or extreme stressors, the cells can morph into unhealthy forms. Then we get sick and tired.
Another great discovery we made was that our bodies are alkaline by design, but acidic by function. This means that while our blood and tissues need to be kept in a delicate balance of 7.365, every function of our bodies, such as running, thinking, eating, and breathing produces acidic, metabolic waste products. There is also a scientific ratio which exists concerning how our body neutralizes these acid by- products. It takes 20 parts alkalinity to neutralize 1 part acidity in our systems. More specifically for you chemistry buffs; it takes 20 parts sodium bicarbonate to neutralize 1 part carbonic acid in the body.With this guiding information at our disposal, we then set out to create an “alkalinizing” lifestyle program that anyone with the desire for optimum health and radiance can follow.You simply eat and drink 80/20: 80% high-water-content, high-fiber, chlorophyll-rich, alkalinizing foods and drinks (like fresh vegetables from the garden), and 20% more grounding or mildly acidic foods such as sprouted wheat tortillas, cooked legumes/grains, or some oily fish or tofu. When you start changing your diet and lifestyle to this 80/20 ratio, you can achieve the ideal weight and radiant energy you’ve always desired. Before you commit to this healthy regimen, however, it’s good to know more reasons why it would be so beneficial.
1. Our bodies break down to:
70% water
20% fat (give or take depending on your body type)
7% protein
1-2% vitamins and minerals
½-1% sugar. (ONLY ½-1% sugar)
To simplify, we could state that our bodies are 70% water and 30% matter. This is similar to our earth’s composition, and also a good way to visualize each plate of food we eat. The majority of the food and drinks we ingest should replace our internal rivers and streams (our blood and lymph fluids) with fresh, alkalinizing hydration. This means food predominantly from the garden and the more chlorophyll-rich, the better. Try to think of your blood as a living streaming organ in your body that feeds and brings nutrients and oxygen to every other organ and system. Then realize that chlorophyll-- the “blood” of green plants, is molecularly structured almost identically to our own hemoglobin, an iron-containing protein in red blood cells that transports oxygen around the body. This would mean that chlorophyll might be considered one of the best blood transfusions we could ever get. Some even tout chlorophyll as a blood purifier. Even recently in the new Iron Man 2 movie, you see him was swigging on chlorophyll to slow down the toxicity in his degenerating blood.
In the chlorophyll molecule there is a center atom of magnesium which is an electromagnetic sync, or more simply put, the sun-sensitive element in the process of photosynthesis.
Dr. Klinik Bircher-Benner has said:
“Absorption and organization of sunlight, the very essence of life, is almost exclusively derived from plants. Plants are therefore a biological accumulation of light. Since light is the driving force of every cell in our bodies, that is why we need plants.”
With this understanding, we found that the best way to alkalize was to first drink 3-4 liters a day of alkaline water with a pH of 9 or above. Our choices of the most alkalizing foods was the next step. Moving towards an alkalinizing lifestyle was a process, not an event. I started to implement more alkaline choices while phasing out acidic options. Some of those decisions were as simple as substituting fresh lemon or lime juice for something as highly acidic as vinegar. At this point you may be thinking, “Well, isn’t lemon juice acidic too?” It’s actually true that if you took some pH paper and tested lemon juice it would test acid, but once the lemon juice is metabolized in the body, the inherent alkalizing mineral salts contained in the lemon juice leaves a residue of alkaline ash in the bloodstream. Also because of their low sugar content, lemons and limes do not ferment in the blood.
Other substitutions took place. I started using avocado and healthy oils like flax seed, hemp seed oil, and coconut oil in place of butter and margarine.A huge mixed green salad became our main entrée and we doctored it up with goodies like sun-dried tomatoes, almonds, pine nuts, and garbanzo beans. I started to use many more dark green leafy vegetables in our diet: kale, spinach, and collard greens. Onions, garlic, and ginger became our natural antibiotics. Our morning smoothies went from sugary fruit and yogurts to english cucumbers, spinach, avocado, red ruby grapefruit, fresh coconut meat, some ice, and a little raw green stevia, (an herbal sweetener that is 100 times more sweet than sugar!) It’s “delish”, and so easy! We still could have sides of pasta, fish, or cooked grains, but we found that steamed buckwheat and quinoa were better than white rice, baked potatoes, or yeasty breads. We also added the benefits of good mineral salts. The proper salt is vital for your health, and helps keep you alkalized. Once we got rid of most of the acidic foods and drinks from our diet, we noticed improvement in our health and appearance. Those last 10 vanity pounds disappeared almost immediately. My son’s sinusitis which he’d been struggling with for years cleared up. Headaches became more of a rare occurrence. Clarity of thought, better sleeping patterns, and much more energy were also noticed. We still splurged on a dessert once in a while, but not every week like we used to. Hay fever and other allergies disappeared completely. Like Benjamin Button, we felt like we were “youthing”, instead of aging.
It’s been absolutely one of the richest blessings in our lives to find this treasure of truth. And it makes so much sense. Just eat and drink those foods which are best suited to your body’s pH chemistry and watch the dividends appear! What a pay out! We hardly ever get sick. We have energy levels that match what we had back in high school, and we’re the same size we were back then, too! As Brian Regan states: “Can life get any better?... I submit that it cannot!”
You can even learn to do this out in your busy working world. The menus in most restaurants can be navigated to create a beautiful alkaline meal. Here are some examples:
If you eat at an Italian restaurant:
Order minestrone vegetable soup as an appetizer
A big green salad with avocado, tomato, lemon juice and olive oil
A side of pasta with marinara or pesto sauce, or some fish.
Also, if you’re still hungry, order a side of steamed veggies like broccoli or spinach
If you’re eating at a Mexican restaurant:
Order a large Taco Salad without the meat and cheese.
Use fresh salsa stirred up with guacamole, lemon juice and some salt for your dressing.
Order a side of beans (preferably black beans and some rice for your 20%) or a tortilla
If you’re eating in an Asian/Chinese or Thai restaurant:
Order a vegetable-based soup if available. Some Thai restaurants have a good veggie soup with coconut milk broth.
Order a large stir fry or steam fry (with water, if possible) of a mixed veggie medley,
(leaving out the mushrooms and corn if possible.)
Add tofu to the entrée as part of your 20%.
Use a good salt like Real Salt or Liquid pHlavor Salt instead of Soy Sauce
Order a couple of side veggies like spicy green beans and broccoli or asparagus.
You can eveneat at a place like The Cheesecake Factory!:
Order avocado and tomato egg rolls with cilantro sauce for an appetizer
Order a roasted artichoke and use lemon and oil as a dipping sauce.
Get a large mixed veggie salad and use oil, lemon, herbs, and spices for the dressing.
Order beautiful sides of steamed broccoli and other available veggies of choice.
Bonappetit!
If you’re flying on an airplane, try to pre-order a special vegan meal if it’s available. This will ensure you don’t get an acidic meal like an egg omelet with mushrooms.
When you’re willing to make some simple changes in the way you feed your body, and realize that everything you eat or drink affects your body’s delicate chemistry, appearance, and energy levels, then alkalinizing makes perfect sense. It’s not a program of deprivation, but rather freedom to choose and eat (as much as you want) the kinds of foods and drinks that will be best assimilated in the 9 yards of your intestinal tract.You also need to think of that intestinal tract as your literal root system--similar to how plants have roots to absorb their nutrients from the soil. You wouldn’t think of pouring chocolate milk into the soil of your favorite house plant, right? You’d kill it! It’s a fact that everything you eat or drink finds it place into your millions of intestinal villiand micro villi which are tiny, hair-like structures with the total surface area of a tennis court! Within each of these intestinal villi there exists a vein, an artery, and a lymphatic vessel. It is of utmost importance that you always provide the best possible nutrition so that your root system can absorb the minerals and vitamins that build your blood and tissues, and keep you fit and healthy.
In our minds, food is no longer just a choice about fat grams or calorie. It’s about the life force of the food and how it energizes us with electrons. Acidic food choices do just the opposite. They introduce more protons into our systems which take our energy levels down. The pH Miracle is an invitation to change. Change the way you look, feel, and set out to be the best you!Think about the way you take car of your car. You probably try to put the best fuel in it to keep it running for the longest season you can. Your body is the same! And depending on how many miles you already have on you, alkalinizing just might be your best bet for a long, healthy road ahead! Try it, and don’t be surprised if you get a few miracles of your own! Who knows! You may hit the cover of Cosmopolitan!

Ordering a pair of shoes from Alice + Olivia at Payless yesterday I was inspired to write a blog piece on her spring 2010 collection.
Here are some ready to wear items on her website. These are my favorites! :)
My view on the collection:
Alice + Olivia have a romantic type feeling to their line. My favorites are the first and third pictures. The first looks very professional yet sexy and trendy. The third one almost remind me of a 40s woman's business suit but with sparkle and a little sex appeal. I found the last picture to be a little interesting. I call it the rainbow dress (hehe). I don't think I could wear such a piece but I am sure would look lovely on some people. Though the shoes she has on are to dye for! I love those! :)
What do you think about Alice + Olivia 2010 Spring 2010 Collection?

So Nyeo Shi Dae 'Jessica' reveals her parents’ reaction when she talked about marriage to them.
Jessica will be on KBS Happy Birthday to be aired on 24th May when she revealed, “My parents are not comfortable about the idea of me having a boyfriend. And even if I have interests for someone, I don’t like that person.”
She added, “I brought up the topic of marriage with them on several occasions before. And my father had teared.” Kim Seong then commented, “It seems when the daughter gets married, the father cries, and when the son gets married, the mother will cry.”
Lee KyeongGyu then joked, “When the child don’t get married, the 2 of them will cry.”

It is a 2008 Mazda 3. I absolutely love it! It is really easy to drive and so easy to park! It has great gas mileage. I only paid $23 today for half a tank! :) The color reminds me of Cinderella's dress for some reason (hehe). It is a beautiful color and easy to pick out in a parking lot (which is nice in a mall parking lot!). I am still trying to figure out all the features in the car. So far my boyfriend loves the aux hookup for his iphone. I can see it now, we will be driving my new car more than his (hehe). I like the stereo system, it has a nice sound to it and can be easily adjusted.
I really like the car! I definitely know that I will be getting a lot out of this car :)
