Get Your Sexy Back!



Two months back I saw this two drunk youths sleeping under my block, it was 5am in the morning and people were heading out for work and the two youths actually attracted some attention, negative attention that is.

Ever got really drunk and passed out on the streets, fell down a drain or vomited all over yourself or on people around you? If yes, then it's time for you to start gaining control over your alcohol intake and get your sexy back!


We attended the GYSB launch party on the 21st of September. GYSB Meaning
Get your Sexy Back is a Campaign which is supported by the Asia Pacific Breweries targeted at youths to promote responsible drinking. Now into its fourth year, the anti-binge drinking message is centered on the concept of ‘taking control’ and the campaign taps on the need for social acceptance among youth to steer home the message.
According to MOH, binge drinking is defined as the consumption of five or more alcoholic drinks for males, or four or more alcoholic drinks for females, in any one drinking session.


GYSB had posters of drunken youth in various poses put up around Singapore, each having a QR code like this one.

From personal experience, one of the most often causes are peer pressure, Apart from just saying no, we can also share this with them and encourage them to be a part of the campaign and start drinking responsibly. This is a really meaningful campaign so do check out their page http://www.gysb.sg and share it with your friends!

Re-using Silica Gel

This is what you do *or at least what i did* when your silica gel loses it's moisture sucking power! basically when your silica gel turn from dark blue to a pale purplish colour.

First you spread it out evenly it out on a plate.


Put it in the microwave. i set it to 1min but i think it should be longer,i'll tell you why later.
When it's done, remember to use a glove cause it's gonna be hot, there would be a nasty smell when it's done so don't breathe that in.


The silica gel should be this colour when it's done!


Basically by doing this, you're evaporating the moisture that locked inside the silica gel, kind of like squeezing a wet sponge. I placed the hot silica gel in an air tight container with a hygrometer and noticed that it's releasing moisture, this is probably why it should be in the microwave oven for a longer time. Let it cool for awhile then store it in your container or dry boxes. Good luck!
