1. Scalp Massager – Use this morning and night for just a minute or two. About 1 month later, you will notice new hairs growing. I see this happening to me so I thought it might also work for you. Price? 5Rm. You can purchase it from Daiso the 5dollar shop.

2. Mobile weighing scale – This mini Handy Scale can weigh up to 22kg. The last time I was at an airport to check in, I was made to remove some items from my overweight luggage, just by 1.3kg. If I had this scale I wouldn’t have to go through the hassle of opening up my luggage in public and digging out the 1.3kg of items.

Unlike digital scales, this scale does not need batteries and therefore can be used anytime. Since gadgets like this are seldom used, a manual one might serve better than a digital one as no batteries are needed. It also has a built-in tape measure that can measure up to 39ins/ 100cm. Price? 17Rm. You can get it from one of those Japan Home Centres.

3. Ever tried taking your own passport photos? If you are using Iphone you can download from Apple store, ID Photo Print. It’s a free download. Once you have downloaded it open the application and have someone take a photo of you against a white background, like an empty wall. The application allows some minor adjustments, like remove dark spots and brighten image. So it can even make you look younger! It also prints in a set of 4 photos. Price ? FOC. Get free download from Apple store.

4. And lastly, here’s a Qigong video. It goes by the name of “8 Pieces Brocade”, one of the simplest and easy to follow Qigong. This exercise is said to be over a thousand years old, well before the introduction of animal and bird motions. Its about 20 minutes long and can be repeated if you think you need more exercise. After pracising this for more than 6 months now, i feel it has helped strength my thighs and knees. I think this exercise is effective and it probably helped me climb the Great Wall! You can try it for yourself and see if it works for you. so here goes… http://youtu.be/cHd_jp1jXeU
