9 Best Hidden Bars in Penang You NEED to Visit

1. ManchuWalking into Manchu is like walking into the Qing Dynasty where Manchurians once ruled the kingdom. It is full of the old Chinese ambiance that will bring you down a memory lane. But this is not the only thing that makes it top our list. The mini live band of the bar is great too! The singers sing classic and modern Chinese and English songs, making it a perfect spot to chill out after a long day.Address: 38 & 40 Jalan Pintal Tali, George Town, PenangBusiness Hour: 11 am - 3 am2. 66 NoordinDefinitely one of the very small bars in Penang that have very few seating available. But you can’t judge a book by its cover, 66 Noordin is more than comfortable despite the small space as you can enjoy a bunch of relaxing music while eating. As for the menu, they serve delectable main dishes like spaghetti and rice, oh, and not forgetting their signature SiuYuk (roasted meat). Address: 66 Noordin Street, 10300 Georgetown PenangBusiness Hour: 5 pm-1 am3. Secret DoorThe bar is quite easy to locate compared to other hidden bars in Penang, but the tricky part is getting in. You need to punch in the secret code at the door (which looks nothing like a conventional door) to enter the bar. Sounds hard? But don’t worry, there’s a clue provided right beside. Address: 211, Lebuh Carnavon, 10100 Georgetown, Penang.Business Hour: 6 pm-3 am4. The BundThis is where you can get a feel of old Shanghai without actually being in Shanghai. The bar is decorated with Shanghainese-themed paintings and decors that can really take you back to the era of mafias and money. To live up to its name as a hidden bar, The Bund has a door where the doorknob is at a much lower position than usual doorknobs. Argh, they just have to make things a little harder for us, eh?Address: 117, Noordin Street, 10300 Georgetown, Penang.Business Hour: 6 pm-3 am5. Room 495Speaking of the mother of the hidden bar, Room 495 is definitely the one. Located behind Wassup Hotel, it is soooo well hidden inside the alley that even Penangites have trouble finding it. However, the hard work of finding it will pay off when you finally get in. The ambiance of Room 496 is really cozy, and the prices of beverages aren’t cutthroat. And to make it better, they play soft and casual music so it is easy for conversation.Address: 495, Jalan Penang (behind Wassup hotel, next to Komtar Walk open site carpark) 10000 Georgetown, Penang.Business Hour: 5 pm-12 am (Sunday-Thursday) / 5 pm-1 am (Friday & Saturday)6. 12 SensesYet another bar with a creative way for you to get in. We heard that some kung fu is needed in order to open the door. Well, in fact, you just need to push the correct ‘hand' of the Wing Chun dummy and the door will slide open magically. Stepping inside, you will be greeted with pictures of Chinese Opera and escorted to your table if there is any available. (Oops~) Address: 12, Lebuh Presgrave, 10300 PenangBusiness Hour: 6 pm-2 am7. Magazine 63Feel like trying out the way ancient Chinese drink alcohol just like how you saw in Chinese dramas? Well, you can do that at Magazine 63! The bar looks pretty dead on the outside as the building is pretty old, and there is no signage anywhere. But when you finally get past the door (maybe need some detective skills), it is like entering a new dimension. To make it more real, their servers are all dressed in traditional Chinese costumes.Address: 63, Jalan Magazine, 10300 Georgetown, Penang.Business Hour: 8 pm-3 am8. Golden Shower Pink is everywhere here in Golden Shower by Chin Chin! Perfect for every girl whom life’s theme color is pink. As the name suggests, the bar has a bathroom-themed concept. The decorated bathroom looks very high class and elegant, but do note that it is only for decorative purpose xDAddress: 86, Lebuh Bishop 10200 Georgetown, Penang.Business Hour: 12 pm-2 am 9. Good Friends ClubWhile the aim for a nightlife consists of crowds seeking pumping atmospheres, Good Friends Club has a different way to set itself apart from others. This Kopitiam-like bar is a place to be nostalgic and to emphasize the importance of friends. They serve cocktails with special localized names like Lao Hao Peng and Pat Poh Peng. There is also a pink neon sign that reads “Good Friends Never Bojio”, the quote friends would use when they tease each other. So, consider those who come here with you are the ones you will never miss out or won’t miss you out.Address: 39, Jalan Gurdwara, (Hin Bus Art Depot) Georgetown, Penang.Business Hour: 7 pm-1 am (Closed on Tuesday)


COVID-29 Updates | Malaysian Government Launched Vaccine Certificate Verifier App To Check The Authenticity Of Vaccination Certificates

Vaccine Certificate Verifier app is launched by the government to verify the authenticity of both printed and digital COVID-19 vaccination certificates in the MySejahtera app. It also supports the verification of vaccine certificates issued by Singapore and the European Union. It is reported that the updated QR code format on the electronic vaccination certificate can only be scanned with Vaccine Certificate Verifier app. The vaccination information will not be displayed if you are using ordinary mobile phone scanning software.Steps 1. Download the Vaccine Certificate Verifier app from the Apple App Store, Google Play and Huawei App Gallery. 2. After clicking "Verify Certificate" on the Vaccine Certificate Verifier app, open the other party's MySejahtera to view his/ her vaccination certificate. Then, scan the QR code with the app.
3. The screen will display whether the QR code is valid (Valid / Invalid). Then there will be the name of the vaccinated person, ID number and birthday, the type of vaccine being vaccinated, vaccine manufacturer, serial number and vaccine deadline, etc.
In addition, Dr Kailu Hafez, the founder and chairman of MedTweetMY, suggested that the business owner can request the customers to show their identity cards so that they can cross-check with the IC number on the vaccination certificate to ensure that the customer is not using someone else’s vaccination certificate. Arisman, a doctor at a clinic in Shah Alam, also reminded the business owner to check the vaccination certificate presented by the customer to make sure that the customer presented the genuine certificate using the My Sejahtera mobile app. He also reminded the business owner not to accept the screenshot of the vaccination certificate.

Shhhh! Ways To Have Some Quiet Sneaky Sex When You’re Not Home Alone

Visitors. Roommates. Family. Parents. Kids. They are biggest cockblockers in the world. When they are around, your paranoia about getting caught having sex reaching terrifying height. Most of us even instate a no sex when not home alone rule just to be safe. Just because you’re not home alone, it doesn’t mean that you can get a little dirty in between the sheet. Here’s how to have sex silently so that it won’t be awkward the next morning:1. Turn Up the MusicThis tip has two benefits: it makes your lovemaking extra rhythmic, and it also hides the fact that you’re having sex to the people outside of your room. It hides all your moans, groans, gasps and all the other noises you make during sex. Here's a playlist you can use, might be kinda obvious though LOL2. Shower SexLock the door and turn on the shower – running water is a good way to muffle your sex sounds. Plus, shower sex is super sensual. You’re both wet and slippery. However, if your room doesn’t have an attached bathroom then skip this step.
  3. Timing is key
  The best time to do it is when everyone else is sleeping soundly. So, try taking a trip to pound town early in the morning or in the middle of the night. Hopefully, some of them snore too, that will really help! Just because they are asleep doesn’t mean you can be extra loud though! 4. Orgasm while kissing
  Try doing it face-to-face so that when it is time for the big O, you can kiss. Kissing while o-ing help to reduce the sounds that come out while you’re in the highest stage of bliss. Make sure you kiss like your life depended on it; I mean it really does if you’re staying with your parents. 5. Two numbers: 6 9
  When both your mouths are busy, you’re both quiet. This also helps stop all the other noises like your bed creaking, your movements and so on. Plus, if you love giving and receiving oral then have fun!6. Get KinkyYou might think how will getting kinky make having sex quieter, well, when it involves duct tape, a gag, a pillow or a hand covering your mouth. If you or your partner is making too much noise, then try covering their mouth with duct tape, your hand or a DIY gag with some socks or underwear. Or else, get into the doggystyle position and make your partner make their noises into a pillow.

M'sian Roast Pork Seller Takes On Bangkok's Hunk Seafood

It is no doubt that Malaysia is full of talented people. A dance cover TikToker, also a roast pork seller, became popular with one of his dance covers to BLACKPINK's "Pink Venom", and is now taking on an international stage!   Samous, the roast pork seller, joined the popular dancers from the Huamum Night Market's Hunk Seafood in Bangkok and dances impressively. He released three episodes of him on his TikTok account.   He even accepted dance challenges from a customer and the stall's principal dancer.   He also joined the crew to dance on the balcony.  Sometimes the real talent is hidden underneath suits and ties, or in this case, hidden under an apron and yellow boots. Malaysians are indeed talented.


If You Are Single Then Maybe You'd Want To Join This M'sian As He Is Looking For A Date On Carousell To Coldplay's Concert

In the aftermath of Coldplay's sold-out concert in KL, social media has been abuzz with scalpers attempting to profit from reselling tickets. However, amidst these posts, an amusing and refreshing ad caught our attention on Carousell.User @wecoolliekdat took a different approach by seeking a date to accompany him to the upcoming Coldplay concert in November. In his ad, he mentioned purchasing two side-by-side Cat 4 tickets but realized he didn't have a girlfriend to join him.
@wecoolliekdat specified that the ideal companion should be single (VERY single) and a fellow Coldplay fan. To facilitate the selection process, he provided a Google form link containing a questionnaire for interested individuals.The questionnaire included fun inquiries such as whether a first date at a mamak (local eatery) would be acceptable, reasons why they should be chosen, and their thoughts on going Dutch.
While we found this Carousell post amusing, it's important to prioritize safety when engaging in online interactions. Always exercise caution and avoid compromising your well-being in any situation.
Remember, sometimes unexpected opportunities arise in the most unconventional ways, and who knows, a Coldplay concert could be the backdrop for a remarkable connection.


Would You Say Yes To Coriander? Health Benefits Of Coriander

The scent of coriander is very special. People who like it will love it, and those who don't love it will hate it! However, coriander is a very beneficial food that can enhance memory and promote detoxification.
    Some studies conducted a 45-day test with white mice as subjects. The white mice were fed with fresh coriander every day, and various types of intelligence tests were performed on them. The results found that the white mice's memory was greatly improved!The reason is that coriander contains anticholinesterase enzyme, which specifically breakdown the cholinesterase enzyme (an enzyme that reduces memory) and makes the brain works better!
    In addition to improving memory, coriander also promotes detoxification and remove toxins from the body. A study from Japan found that white mice that consumed coriander had lower levels of lead (a substance that causes kidney damage) than white mice that did not consume coriander.
      Besides, coriander contains coriandrol, an aromatic substance that can treat liver cancer. When combined with a low-fat diet and avoidance of hydrogenated fats, coriander is effective in preventing certain cancers such as liver, breast and colon cancer.
    Due to its strong flavour, few people eat it as a main dish, and most people often use it as a spice or condiment. If you are interested in brain supplements, a nutritionist might suggest that you can mix them with other fruits, such as apples, lemons, pineapples, and so on.
  While coriander may have many health benefits, care should still be taken because the volatile oil of coriander seeds can cause allergy in some people while coriander powder may trigger asthma attacks and bronchitis among chronic sufferers.

Roti Canai Crisis Incoming? Malaysians' Favourite Food To Face Price Hike Following Wheat Flour Shortage

Can you imagine paying more than RM1.20 for a roti canai? Well, you might need to start facing such a reality soon. Despite the government's reassurance that Malaysia will not be affected by India's wheat export ban, roti entrepreneurs nationwide have already started experiencing ridiculous price hikes on wheat flours. As reported by Free Malaysia Today, Malaysian Indian Muslim Restaurant Owners Association (Presma) president Jawahar Ali Taib Khan had expressed that roti sellers are currently facing the consequences and are forced to pay RM65 for a 25kg pack of wheat flour when it used to only cost RM45.
Apart from the price increase in local goods and necessities, we'll also likely suffer similar inconvenience when it comes to Malaysia's most beloved delicacy AKA roti canai. In times like these, it'd have been really fortunate if money did grow on trees.

Nursing Home VS Taking Care Of Elderly Parents, The Pros And Cons

As a child, you always tell your parents that you'll take care of them when they are old but when the time comes you have to take a lot of things into consideration and it can be a hard decision. Sometimes you even have to consider sending them to an old folks' home where they can get proper care and attention. To help make your decision a little clearer, here are some of the pros and cons of having a parent live with you vs sending them to a nursing home:Nursing HomePros:+ Full-Time CareFor parents with medical issues that require around the clock care, nursing homes are able to provide that. If you don't have the time to do so then instead of neglecting their health care, it is better to snd them to a place where they can get proper care from a professional. Even if your parent has an emergency in the middle of the night, there will be nurses who will be able to treat them instantly. It can be very reassuring and comforting knowing that your parent is being properly taken care of throughout the day.
+ Properly Structured ScheduleAs elderly parents get older, it is easier for them to function with a properly structured schedule. When moving in with you, it is difficult to have a proper schedule because you have other responsibilities and tasks to see to that may get in the way of sticking to a schedule. So, sending them to a nursing home will be able to provide them with a structured, scheduled life, with food, social activities and other activities scheduled at different times which is good for their health.+ SocializationEvery human being, young or old needs to have a social life, even your parents. So sending them to a nursing home will allow them to meet with other elderly people, form a connection with them and build a friendship together. They get to spend time together, be active together and be a part of a community. Nursing homes will also have social activities in which your parents can participate with their friends and have a good time together. This will make them feel less lonely and bored which is good for their mental health.
  Cons:+ CostLet's be honest, nursing homes aren't cheap! In Malaysia, the cheapest nursing home you can get is RM2500 which has only the basic amenities. Since you're sending them to live in a nursing home because of the 24/7 care and the facilities, you're going to have to spend extra to find a place that provides them with good quality care and great facilities for your loved ones. So you're going to have to fork out around RM3500 extra a month which is a huge amount! + Lack of FreedomWhen living on their own, our elderly parents had the freedom to do whatever they want whenever they want. They weren't controlled by anyone and may have gotten used to that lifestyle. So, going to a new place where their movements are controlled and they aren't given that much freedom can take a toll on their mental health. Eventually, they will get used to it but it takes time and there will be some hard times when you will be there to support them. + Risk of Poor Quality CareWhile nursing homes promise the best quality care from professionals, you can never know for sure if they are true to their word. There have been many horror stories about nursing homes where residents were neglected, abused and even mistreated. That is why you should always try and ask around and get proper information about the nursing home before paying a ton of money and sending your beloved parents to one. Living With Elderly ParentPros:+ Save MoneyWhile you might be thinking that having an elderly parent move in is costly, it is actually much cheaper than sending them to an old folks' home. You won't have to pay for their accommodation whether it's at an old folks home or even at their own home or in-home care at their own home. You just have to spend a little more on things they need which is lesser than spending a ton on a place for them to stay. + Spending Quality Family TimeWhen it comes to elderly parents, you can't know for sure how much time you have left with them so take all the time you can get. Since we've grown up and started getting busier, we don't really have that much time with them so moving them in with you will allow you to maximise the time you and your children get to spend with them. You get to connect with them on a daily basis and you can show your children a good example of the importance of taking care of family.
  + Ensured Quality HealthcareWhen medical care is needed, it is better for a loved one to be the one administering it. Not only will it make the elderly person more cooperative but it also can be comforting knowing that you know everything that is going on with your parent medically. You don't have to worry about the quality of care your elderly parent is getting. Besides, we all know that finding quality care can be very difficult nowadays. Cons:+ Increased ResponsibilityTaking in your elderly parent will not only increase your responsibilities but also increase your stress. They'll be needing extra care and you'll have more financial responsibilities like food, transportation, personal hygiene items, household goods,  prescription medicines and other medical expenses. You'll also need to make sure you have enough time for work, giving your children and partner the attention they need, house chores and also taking care of your parent, which is a lot to do with very little time. + Inability To Provide Required CareWith all the other responsibilities you have, sometimes you need to face the reality that you can't give your parents proper care. The worst thing to do is take them in and not give them the care that they need, especially if they have a lot of medical needs. The older they get the more they will depend on you and if you don't have the ability to take care of them instead of neglecting them which could worsen their condition, look for other solutions. + Home Safety ModificationsIf you have parents with physical disabilities or are prone to falling or have poor vision, then you will have to make changes to your home to ensure they are safe when living with you. You may have to modify your bathroom, install wheelchair ramps, add handrails to staircases and more. All these modifications aren't free and they are going to cost you a lot of money. + Loss of PrivacyBringing an elderly parent into your home to live with you can affect your lifestyle too which can put a strain on your relationship with your partner and your children. If you have gotten used to some family routines you will have to find a way to include your parent which may be a little out of place at first but your family will slowly get used to it. Be sure to set boundaries and be honest with each other about privacy and space. What do you think? Would you rather send your parent to an old folks' home or take care of them in your own home?

This Local Woman Escapes Fake Kidnapping Scam, Ask M'sians To Stay Alert

With the increasing number of scam reports nowadays, it comes as no surprise that con artists are constantly devising new methods to deceive unsuspecting victims.Recently, Marlene Zahari took to social media to raise awareness about a disturbing phone call scam involving fake kidnappings and torture. While these tactics may not be entirely new, Marlene's harrowing experience sheds light on the evolution of the scam.She shared her encounter with an anonymous male caller who aggressively claimed to have her child in their custody. The scammer demanded a ransom, threatening harm to the child if the payment was not made promptly. However, unlike typical kidnappers who provide specific details to authenticate the abduction, this scammer failed to provide any information beyond Marlene's name.Suspicious of the call, Marlene pressed for more details about her child. The caller repeated the same threats and asked an alleged accomplice to simulate sounds of violence in the background. Although distressed, Marlene realized something was amiss and decided to text her eldest son to confirm his whereabouts. Her son promptly responded, assuring her that he was safe in school and had seen his sister during lunch.With the knowledge that her children were safe, Marlene remained silent on the call, prompting the scammer to hang up when their demands went unmet. Shockingly, Marlene discovered that her close friend had encountered a similar call, suggesting that this scam tactic was not isolated.Marlene raised concerns that scammers these days are incorporating AI-generated voices to mimic the voices of loved ones, making it even more challenging for victims to discern the authenticity of the calls.

She also claims to have acquired more skills and knowledge.
As she controls her time now and declares that she won't work in corporate again in the future, she is not only content but also able to appreciate the simple things in life."I am very happy to leave the company.

Woman Subjected To 23 Hours Of Sexual and Physical Abuse By Boyfriend Over Innocent Farting Incident

In a shocking incident, a woman fell victim to 23 hours of torture by her engineer boyfriend after playing a prank by farting under the blanket. The horrifying details of the abuse include the boyfriend forcibly cutting her hair and smothering her with a pillow. The gruesome aftermath has now been revealed.According to reports from various media sources, a man surnamed Huang and his girlfriend travelled to Taipei in May 2021. During their stay at a hotel, Huang unexpectedly took out a pair of scissors and forcibly cut his girlfriend's hair. When she resisted, he proceeded to physically assault her face and head. Later, taking advantage of her sleeping state, he sexually assaulted her and even suffocated her with a blanket and pillow. The ordeal continued until the following day at around 7 am when the girlfriend started packing to leave. However, upon discovery, she was subjected to another round of abuse by her boyfriend, which persisted until approximately 8 pm that evening.After the incident, the woman immediately filed a complaint against Huang. He admitted to cutting her hair with scissors and engaging in sexual activity but denied causing harm, forced intercourse, and depriving her of freedom. Huang claimed that his girlfriend had previously cut his hair without permission and that they engaged in a consensual relationship. He further argued that covering her face with a pillow was merely a playful act between the two. However, the girlfriend refuted his claims, stating that the incident stemmed from a month-old prank where she farted under the blanket and playfully covered him with it, causing him to smell the odour. She said, "Huang claimed to have lasting effects from that incident and used it as a reason to harm my head."During the court proceedings, Huang denied injuring his girlfriend, maintaining that it was playful behaviour between a couple. Moreover, he had not reached any settlement with her, and his post-offence attitude remained questionable. Consequently, he was sentenced to one-year imprisonment for causing injury, five years for forced intercourse, and eight months for depriving someone of their freedom. The overall sentence amounted to six years and four months, with the possibility of appeal.

4 Best Ways to Elevate Your English Proficiency

While French may be the language of love, English is world’s lingua franca. Regardless whether you’re Japanese or German, English has enabled people of different native languages to conversate under one language medium. The ability to master English proficiently (both spoken and written) puts an individual on a higher pedestal. It’ll open you to a door of wondrous opportunities; good career and better social life. Even if your English is on the less proficient note, don’t fret as there are ways you can improve it. Sure, you can’t expect to achieve that spotless eloquence like Bridgerton’s (neither can we, but we can dream about it right?), but over time your English will be better than ever! 1. Create a vocabulary journal List down any words you can think of or come across, be it bombastic or simple words. Incorporate each word with their meaning so you can easily remember them. After all, you want to build up your vocabulary from time to time. Always keep track of your progress as this journal is a powerful tool you can use for daily conversation and at workplace/ school.                                             2. Practice makes perfectJust as manners maketh man, practice also makes perfect. Enhance your pronunciation by reading the words out loud to yourself. If you’re unsure of the correct pronunciation, there’s nothing like Google or Youtube can’t help. Build up your speaking skills by incorporating English in your daily conversation, doesn’t matter if it’s just one sentence or 2-3 words. You’ll notice that your grammar will greatly improve over time as long as you have the confidence and willpower.                                             3. Indulge in English TV series/ moviesVisual learning is one of the great methods in improving your English and what’s the best way to do so other than binge watching tv series or movies. I’m a sucker for everything Netflix, especially series like The Big Bang Theory. If you want to enhance your listening and comprehension skills, it’s best to observe and listen closely to the characters’ conversations. This is also a brilliant way in helping you speak confidently.                                                           4. Eat, sleep and breath books Are you an avid reader? If you excitedly answer YES to the question, then half of the work is already done for you. There is an abundance of amazing reading materials out there so you’ll be spoiled for choice. Whether it’s novels, magazines, newspapers or even e-books; find the ones that will entice you and keep your eyes glued to the pages. Doesn’t matter if it’s fashion or crime related; a good read will never go to waste.


Beware! Motorcyclists On The Road Are Tricking Drivers With Fake Flat Tyre Warnings

A Malaysian man narrowly escapes falling into the trap of scammers after being intercepted by three motorcyclists who falsely claimed his car had a flat tyre. Thanks to his cautious approach, he decided not to immediately stop and inspect his vehicle, eventually uncovering a new modus operandi.
According to a report, the incident took place as Mr Lee, the man in question, was driving on the highway en route to Mid Valley. Along the journey, he encountered three motorcyclists who flagged him down with hand gestures indicating a tyre burst. Subsequently, another motorcycle carrying two individuals joined in the interception.
However, Mr Lee wisely chose not to halt immediately but instead drove to a safe location to thoroughly inspect his car. After a careful examination, he found no signs of any tyre issues and decided to visit a nearby tyre shop for further verification. It was at the tyre shop where he discovered that his tyres were perfectly fine. To his surprise, the shop owner revealed that similar incidents had been occurring recently, suggesting that scammers might deceive victims by falsely claiming flat tyres or spraying oil on the tyres to fabricate an oil leak.
Reflecting on the incident, Mr Lee shared his speculation on social media, expressing his realization that he might have fallen victim to a potential robbery if he had stopped abruptly. He took the opportunity to warn fellow netizens about these fraudulent tactics employed by criminals, urging them to remain vigilant and avoid becoming victims of such scams.
In response to his post, numerous netizens shared their own encounters with similar situations. One individual recounted a chilling experience of being followed all the way to a tea shop, while others mentioned witnessing similar incidents along Jalan Kuching.

Some questioned whether drivers could truly be unaware of tyre bursts, while others pointed out that this scam has been around for over a decade.While there are still good-hearted individuals who genuinely offer assistance, it is crucial to remain cautious. When encountering such situations, it is advisable to proceed to a safe location before inspecting your vehicle thoroughly. Stay alert and stay safe!

These Foods Make Dieting Useless. Avoid Them!

People diet for many reasons, for better health, to prepare for a competition, or most commonly, to lose weight. The key to a successful weight-loss diet is to use up more energy than you consume. With that in mind, if you consume these foods during your diet, you're essentially rendering it useless. Even worse, you might even realize that you're gaining weight during your diet!CoffeeThe whole truth is, coffee does indeed help with weight loss. What we're trying to avoid here is coffee with added milk and sugar! Lattes and mochas have high amount of sugar and should not be taken during a diet. If you really need your daily hit, go for black coffee instead.
  Trans Fat FoodsTrans fat is an unsaturated fat that has heaps of negative effects. Doughnuts, fried foots, and desserts have trans fat that makes it all the more tastier. However, the amazing taste comes at a price of higher cholesterol levels. So, avoid high-fat foods and food with artificial components as they are not only unhealthy, but unhelpful with your diet.
  Instant NoodlesNot only are instant noodles packets of carbohydrates, they are usually fried to preserve them in their current form for a long time. Instant noodle flavorings make it worse by having 0% nutrients and 100% MSG. During a diet, do not be tempted by the ease of preparation and good taste of instant noodles.
  AlcoholAlthough the pros and cons are still up for debate, it is a known fact that alcoholic drinks like beer have a certain amount of calories (not something you want extra of during a diet). Another problem lies in the snacks that we usually eat while drinking. Studies have shown that alcohol excites certain brain cells that causes us to snack more while drinking.
  We know these foods taste great and we almost can't live without them. But, if you're serious about your diet and about losing weight, then don't risk ruining your progress by avoiding these foods like the plague!

Noah Centineo Is Dapper & Daring in New ‘Recruit’ Trailer

The Recruit hero Owen Hendricks (Noah Centineo, who's also the executive producer) may just be starting out at the CIA – but he's got a seriously good tailor. Or, at least, that's what the just-released photos and trailer of the upcoming spy drama, premiering Dec. 16, are telling us. But there's more to Owen than a stellar sense of style. This 24-year-old is in for an action-packed eight episodes as he's thrown into the murky waters of espionage in The Recruit. As the trailer reveals, the series follows Owen's first days on the job as a CIA lawyer. Despite barely being out of his law school cap and gown, Owen is tossed into high-stakes intrigue when he discovers a threatening letter, known as "graymail," from the snake-tattooed Max Meladze (Laura Haddock), a former agency asset. It's clearly a high stress job, since Owen must ask In between dodging bullets and charming love interests, "Have you ever had a panic attack?" Apparently, he'll "get used" to those as Owen travels the world to untangle the truth as the pressure of high-ranking power players threatens his nascent career. The photos prove Owen has to maintain quite the balance on his quest. Sometimes, he's buttoned up and perfectly coiffed as he plays office politics. Other times, all of the spy activity leaves Owen with mussed hair, a scar on his cheek and a desperate need to loosen up his white oxford shirt. Centineo teases that Owen will eventually learn that lesson over the course of The Recruit. "He thinks he's working as a lawyer the truth is you're never just a lawyer at the CIA," he explains. "There's so many more things going on, and that's the world we explored with The Recruit." In fact, Centineo suggests the "learning curve" at the CIA is so high for Owen that it could "end with him dying or going to prison."The rest of the new Recruit photos do suggest countless obstacles are ahead for Owen on his thrilling chase to understand what Max is hiding. He can be seen seething and soaking wet, bloody and running and, in possibly the scariest scenario of them all, all dressed up at a black-tie event. There's no greater threat than small talk, right?  Follow Owen on the case when The Recruit premieres Dec. 16

A storm is brewing between rapper Bad Bunny and his ex-girlfriend, and it's not looking good for his pockets!
  Carliz De La Cruz Hernández recently filed a USD40 MILLION lawsuit towards the star, citing the use of her voice recording "Bad Bunny, baby" in two of his songs. She claimed to have recorded the line in 2015, before it then appeared in Pa Ti (2017) and Dos Mil 16 (2022).
  De La Cruz was then approached by Bad Bunny's rep days before his 2022 album was released, with an offer of USD2,000 for the rights to the line but was declined. Although a deal wasn't struck, the lawsuit stated it was eventually used without her consent, mainly in "promotional materials, on social media, on the radio and even in other songs."Guess mixing business with pleasure bears a hefty price for celebrities.


【Insomnia? Sleep Problems?】Here are 5 Tips to Build a Better Bedtime Routine

Bedtime routines are not just for kids and babies! Having a good sleep can let you wake up feeling refreshed and energetic. If you are having insomnia or sleep issues, these tips can be useful for you.
  Photo Source: PinterestTips 1【Do not watch the clock】If you are having sleep issues, do not stare at the clock or check your phone regularly.I tend to have this habit to see how many hours I still have to sleep. This can stress me out and make me harder to fall asleep.Keep your bedroom clock away from your sight so you won't be tempted to watch the time tick by.
  Photo Source: PinterestTips 2【Turn off your WiFi】Most of us tend to connect our devices to Wifi 24/7. However, you should turn off your Wifi during the night. You don't need to be connected 24/7. Making yourself unavailable for all those emails and messages can make your brain have a good rest.
  Photo Source: PinterestTips 3【Drink water】Drink a glass of warm water before sleep helps to keep your body hydrated throughout the night. If you feel the thirst, it means you are already dehydrated. This habit can level out your blood level and avoid heart attack.
  Photo Source: PinterestTips 4【Do not eat heavy food】Heavy foods like instant noodles or your favourite mamak maggi goreng can disrupt your sleep. If you are really hungry, eat a light snack only before bed. Try having a glass of warm milk next time as it helps to induce sleep.
  Photo Source: PinterestTips 5【Go to bed at the same time】This may sound easy, but it is hard to make it consistent. Train both your body and mind to shut down at the same time can let your brain knows that it is preparing for sleep.Predictability and consistency are boring yet calm.
  Photo Source: PinterestAll the key to these tips is making them your own routine. Try not to give up after two nights and you will see how it makes the difference to your sleep cycle.【Cover Photo: Pinterest || Pinterest】
