Using GIMP to draw topengboy

This is my first ever attempt to draw using GIMP. With a few helps I got from Youtube, this came out.

Food Pyramid (Malaysian Edition)

"You are what you eat"
I live in a state in Malaysia, where people really have messed up big time with the order of their food pyramid. They eat rice three times per day. They also take fried noodles and nasi lemak as in-between meals. They put sugar in almost every food, even in a sugarcane juice.  Old ladies who come to the clinics for blood glucose check would blame the watermelon they ate the night before for a high blood sugar. What the heck. Is a diagram as simple as this so difficult for them to understand?


I suggest the Malaysian Health Ministry to come up with a simpler diagram, play around a little bit with the order. Something like this, maybe:


Since this is Ramadhan, It would be a great opportunity to kick-start a good diet.

Selamat Berbuka Puasa.

Prologue

Assalamualaikum.

Hello friends. Welcome to my website. This is my personal crib where I will write about my interest, and my notes about things and lesson that I have learnt. I got a few things to change in my life. A few of those that I would be grateful to get rid of are my mixed compulsive-inattention-impulsive-schizotypal behavior, my quietness, my depressing easily-get-bored syndrome, and my tendency to get really annoyed with almost everyone I meet. So, I'm planning to use this as a journal to keep track of my progress. Please feel free to comment.

Turning over a new leaf is not easy
Uhh. I'm starting to get bored now, and this crappy blogger picture uploading feature is driving me crazy. All right. Got to go now. See ya!
