I Just Got Fired.

I Just Got fired!. I never thought this day would come, i never thought for a single day, i would be caught off guard with a sack letter. The Job sucks no doubt and i had also started making plans to leave. I gave myself 9 months, by which time i would have received a promotion and immediately leave and use my new position as a leverage for the new job i would be seeking., but i was wrong and i had miscalculated. Working in sales can be very tasking especially when you are selling a bad product. In training school, we were taught to be able to sell refrigerators to Eskimos but in the real sense, to do that, you would have to be dealing with a stupid Eskimo, lying that you are  selling a refrigerator which doubles as a heater or duping an Eskimo. In the real world, there are bad products, bad managements and utterly useless companies. The company wasn't posting much profit due to huge poor business decisions made by management staff in the past and the firing was inevitable. I was stupid enough to think i could hang in there until the wheels come off literally.
Nothing happens to me without some kind of premonition. I know not to cross the road at certain times to avoid be run down by a bicycle and what not. I once had a premonition not to wear a shirt to class in my school days. Of course, i did and i was immediately mistaken for someone else by a crazy professor who sent me out of his office when i went to register his course. And just like every other time something crazy was going to happen, i had a premonition of this too.

It was a weird dream , i found myself in the office, only this time it looked like a junk yard where auto parts came to die. There was a lot of frenzy in the compound. Turns out the whole chaos was over a list that has just been pasted on the dusty wall, i immediately ran through it and found my full name. I couldn't tell what the list was about but i knew in that dream, it was bad,. So i tried to clean it out, i woke up still wiping the bed sheets.  That same morning, i dressed up for work , showed up , only to experience difficulty trying to log into my office portal. I was immediately told i was no longer in the office directory list of staff and should await my sack letter from my immediate boss. Of course , the poorly drafted letter was sent by mail within 15 minutes, to my boss who printed it out with the already ink starved printer and then handed it over to me, after doing some pep talk , of how "life gives you lemons  but you have got to make lemonades". During the whole speech, i couldn't get past the thought that people who were asked to leave the company were actually nominated and i was trying to guess who must have nominated me, my immediate boss or his boss who heads  the region in another state. I'm guessing the former and if that is true then this whole speech would be adding insult to injury and it would be well to simply walk out of the room and leave the fat bastard hanging, but i didn't , i was an epitome of an overdose of optimism, i felt things could still change, a mail could still be sent telling my boss it was all a mistake. I had just closed a good sale yesterday. But the nomination was done weeks before that time.

I just got fired and i'm still in a state of shock, clearing out my desk amidst the pity faces of my now former collegues. This was a job to make a living and it was leaving me before the planned date. Next time i get a job offer, i already know the questions to ask myself. There is no looking back now, the company would eventually function without me and the only thing i would be taking away is my saved income and a few good friends and how not to run a company. The feeling sucks, it does but it's a feeling worth experiencing , because at this point you understand how life works, your own personal worth and why you should never neglect the subtle signs of stress and pressure in a company, knowing when to hold them, when to fold them, when to run away and when to come out and play.

Foods that increase Your sperm count

foods that increase sperm count, Health

Asparagus - 

That little green vegetable that gets so much flack for what it does to the smell of your urine actually has some fantastic powers over sperm. The ridiculously high amount of Vitamin C prevents sperm from oxidizing, and it protects the cells of the testicles. Additionally, Vitamin C decreases free radicals so your man’s body can focus on producing sperm instead of fighting off disease.

Avocado -

 Summer is the perfect time to pick up some yummy avocados for guacamole… and a hot night at home. Packed with vitamin E, vitamin B6, and folic acid, avocados boost sperm motility and give it the strength to penetrate an egg.

 Upon reading that this fruit can help your guy out, we had some giggly flashbacks to Drew Barrymore putting a condom on a banana in Never Been Kissed. Phallic shape aside, there are some awesome things going on in bananas to help increase sperm count. Bananas have a rare enzyme in them called Bromelain, which has been shown to regulate sex hormones. There’s also a good amount of vitamin B1, vitamin A, and vitamin C which will help increase his stamina and boost his body’s ability to make sperm.


Beef -

 This was a little surprising to us given that doctors are constantly saying to lay off red meat if you want a healthy heart. Lean beef, though, is a fantastic source of zinc. A little research on the Dr. Oz site told us that zinc has protective properties that keep free radicals from getting at your man’s little swimmers. In fact, zinc goes even further to prevent testosterone from converting to estrogen, which is the culprit of a low sex drive.

Dark Chocolate -

 There’s no sexier food to bring into the bedroom than dark chocolate, but now, it’s not just the seductive taste you’ll want it for. Dark chocolate contains L-Arginine HCL, an amino acid related to the arginine in walnuts. It also doubles your guy’s sperm count and Fluid volume. Men who eat a little dark chocolate everyday have also noted that they have stronger and more intense heavenly feelings. BONUS: it does that for you, too. *wink*

Garlic -

 Along the same lines as ginseng, garlic possesses the power to increase blood flow. The chemical allicin not only helps keep plaque from building up in the arteries, it also improves the flow of blood to the genitals and boosts the strength and endurance of the sperm. Garlic also contains selenium and vitamin B6 to prevent sperm damage and regulate hormones.

Ginseng -

Dr. Oz recommends ginseng for guys who are dealing with less than impressive bedroom scenarios, but a little more online research tells us that men in Asia have been supplementing ginseng into their diets for centuries because it improves virility. In fact, ginseng increases libido, intimate performance, and aids in blood flow to the testicles. In a study at Southern Illinois University, 45 men with Attention dysfunction were put on a ginseng regimen, and at 16 weeks, 60% of those men reported having stronger erections.


Oysters -

 The fact that oysters are an aphrodisiac was first presented to me in the form of Sex in the City. The process of feeding to each other and sucking down the slimy little things really gets people going. Did you know they also have sperm count increasing benefits? A good portion of a sperm cell is composed of zinc, which oysters are relatively high in. Eating oysters can not only increase sperm production but it can aid in the repair of damaged sperm.

Pomegranate -

This is the most super of all super foods. It seems like it can truly cure whatever ails you from the common cold to low sperm count. Because of the intense cocktail of antioxidants in pomegranates, the juice can lower a chemical in the blood called malondialidehyde. That chemical destroys sperm, so drinking pomegranate juice is like putting a super hero cape on all those sperm so they can destroy the evil free radicals and get to the egg just in time.

Walnuts - 


In high school, we were given a comparison between the size of a walnut and a testicle. Strangely enough, size is not the only link between them. Walnuts contain arganine, which helps the testicles to increase sperm production and also aids in Fluid volume increase. It also contains Omega-3 fatty acids which improve the blood flow to the joystick. These nuts also have twice the antioxidant power over other nuts so they do a great job of protecting the little guys, too. BONUS: eating 7 walnuts a day lowers cholesterol and the risk of heart disease.

Female Genital Odor Elimination

female genital odor, vaginal odor
It is a myth that vaginas smell like rose petals, they don’t. The female genital otherwise known as the vagina is about the only part of the body that has a wide range of odors.  From a fish smelling vagina during a bacteria overgrowth to a faint bleach smell immediately after sex to a blood like smell during menstration to a musky odor after a strenuous activity to no smell at all immediately after bath. The female genital has a wide range of smell/odor. If you think male genital odor is an issue,then female genital odor is a big deal. The vagina is actually not built to smell like lavender just the way Asians are not built for sprinting  but then there is Yoshihide Kiryu. The smell of the vagina at any time might be a good indication of what is going on in the female body. It’s only when the female genital odor is accompanied  by itching, irritation or discharge that there should be any worries. However, In the world today, having a lavender smelling female genital is a plus. Female genital odor can be eliminated , once the major cause is known. 


CAUSES OF FEMALE GENITAL ODOR

Female genital odor is  mainly due to infections and diseases, chemical imbalances, foreign objects or physical activity. 
1.Vaginal Infections  such as Bacterial vaginosis, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID),Poor hygiene, Retained or forgotten tampon, Trichomoniasis, Yeast infection (vaginal) and diseases such as Cervical cancer, Rectovaginal fistula ,Vaginal cancer lead to a funky, nasty, repugnant  and persistent vaginal odor. This is usually accompanied with other symptoms and the vaginal odor is usually very sudden and distinct.

2.Chemical imbalances caused by the disturbance of the  microaerophilic bacteria of the vaginal flora can lead to a bacteria build up vaginal thereby producing an odor.  Activities like swimming in chlorinated water, use of scented harsh soap chemicals to wash the vagina or harsh detergents to wash the underwear , wearing air tight underwears to bed at night and using body lotions on the vagina would in most cases result in a change in vagina pH and result in an odor. Pregnancy would also cause the female genital to produce a different odor

3. Foreign objects , mostly tampons are sometimes retained in a vagina resulting in smell. Use of sex toys, some kinds of lube , or eating some kinds of diets (extremely spicy foods) might also result in the vagina smelling foul.  Some Nutritional supplements have  also been proven to cause vaginal odor when taken.

To get rid of the female genital odor. You would have to
1. Take your bath regularly with cold or mildly warm water, paying attention to your inner thighs and your vaginal lips  especially if you don’t have thigh gap. Don’t wash the female genitals with bathing soap or creams not specifically made for the female genital. Use a female genital washing system to wash the vagina.
2. Wear airy underwear to allow the pussy breathe , allowing a flow of hair in that region.
3. Take mint flavored  liquid chlorophyll  especially during menstration and wash your vagina after urinating with water. A lot of ladies swear by Nature's Way Chlorofresh, Liquid Chlorophyll, Natural Mint
4. Douching is mostly said to affect the chemical balance of the vagina and so is greatly discouraged.
5. Use a mixture of Tea Tree Oil,  and water on your vagina to help clean out bacteria and fungus which can cause female genital odor
6. Soak your body in Raw Organic Apple Cider Vinegarweekly. Apple cider is a very good antiseptic that can help the body rid toxins and bacteria causing vaginal odor.
7.      Shave the pubes off, use a Bikini Shaper & Trimmer, don't be deceived by the so called feminists, it is always better hairless.
8.       Wash immediately after sex, paying a lot of attention to the vagina.    ( this is assuming you actually used it during sex).
9. If  vaginal odor persists then contact a doctor .

According to the vaginal monologues
My vagina doesn't need to be cleaned up. It smells good already. Don't try to decorate. Don't believe him when he tells you it smells like rose petals when it's supposed to smell like pussy. That's what they're doing -- trying to clean it up, make it smell like bathroom spray or a garden. All those douche sprays -- floral, berry, rain. I don't want my pussy to smell like rain. All cleaned up like washing a fish after you cook it. I want to taste the fish. That's why I ordered it.

But you know these monologues were written by single frustrated women and read and narrated by them too, if you are in doubt whether to make your vaginal smell good, then ask yourself. What would Kate upton do?

There are a number of foods that whiten your teeth aside filling your stomach. These foods are  guaranteed to quickly lighten  up your smile .



1. Oil (sesame oil or virgin coconut oil) 


Oil, or all the more particularly, oil pulling, is when oil is utilized for washing, not cooking. Sesame oil or virgin coconut oil is gargled around inside the mouth and afterward spat out fifteen minutes later. As the substance is overwhelmingly "pulled" here and there and then here again between your teeth, the mucous layers inside your mouth retain supplements from it. 

Sesame oil has omega-3 greasy acids, iron, calcium, and vitamins A, B and E; while virgin coconut oil has antibacterial properties that push healthier gums and cavity  free teeth. Just make a point not to swallow any of the saliva that will accumulate as you rinse.
