My eyes teared and my jaw hurt!

Laughter, along with an active sense of humor, may help protect you against a heart attack, according to a new study by cardiologists at the University of Maryland Medical Center in Baltimore. The study, which is the first to indicate that laughter may help prevent heart disease, was presented at the American Heart Association's 73rd Scientific Sessions on November 15 in New Orleans. The researchers found that people with heart disease were 40 percent less likely to laugh in a variety of situations compared to people of the same age without heart disease.

"The old saying that 'laughter is the best medicine,' definitely appears to be true when it comes to protecting your heart," says Michael Miller, M.D., F.A.C.C., director of the Center for Preventive Cardiology at the University of Maryland Medical Center. "We don't know yet why laughing protects the heart, but we know that mental stress is associated with impairment of the endothelium, the protective barrier lining our blood vessels. This can cause a series of inflammatory reactions that lead to fat and cholesterol build-up in the coronary arteries and ultimately to a heart attack," says Dr. Miller who is also an associate professor of medicine at the University of Maryland School of Medicine.

I had my 'buka puasa' and 'sahur' meal here at about 4.15am early this morning.Too busy to eat a proper meal during buka puasa yesterday after my 'bosses' wanted to see me in regards to the email I sent the day before. I could see they are just being so defensive about what I had brought up. YOU GUYS DON'T KNOW ME AT ALL,OK!!

Right after finishing work at 11pm, with all the stress, I went straight to Bangsar and met my new great bunch of friends for drinks .I had a really good laugh till my eyes teared and my jaw hurt. We shared a lot of interesting stories. Very interesting. We only left at about 4am and I decided to go for sahur at one of the new 24hours KFC in PJ. Arrived home at 4.45am and managed to get a short nap before leaving for work again at 6.20am.

And now, god! I'm really suffering at work, trying to make sure my eyes stay wide open till 3pm. Can't wait for my 1/2 hour breaktime soon - I hope to get another session of power nap which should last me till tonight. I got to stay awake as I got a buka puasa invitation today - birthday party of my STF sist's children.

Lack of sleep, defnitely I am but at least I know the chance of me getting a heart attack is relatively low if reading from the article above.My new friends are definitely a bunch of fun, loving, crazy, pervert people!!
