Life Pro Tips

Brush. Its been my habit to clean gadgets with these. Previously the walkman but nowadays this applies to keyboards and mobile phones as well cause you need to open and clean the insides occasionally.

Underwear. When you live alone, you wash at least one underwear daily so you can have clean underwears everyday. I know you can send your clothes to the washers but this is a good suggestion. Trust me on this.


Workout. Get yourself this book. This is like my Bible for fitness. You don't have to try all but instead make your own routine. You can do this workout basically anytime and anywhere. I usually do my routine at least two times a week with crunches, push ups and pull ups. Of course you can also use weights for variety.

Strawberries. You have to grind the seeds with your teeth to release the nutrients.


Honey. From my observation, its pure honey when it does not attract ants or else sugar might have been added to it. Also honey does not spoil. You know guys I've been thinking. When Sherlock Holmes retired to a bee farm, the writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is implying that Sherlock has found his honey. He marries after all. My guess is the girl Irene Adler who engaged him in the story "A Scandal in Bohemia". Its possible that Irene has cameos in the follow up stories so I need to read it again.

This is from Doyle's biography:
It was during his time spent in Portsmouth as a doctor that Arthur met and fell in love with a sister of one of his patients, Louise Hawkins (known as Touie). They married at St Oswald’s church, Thornton in Lonsdale, in August 1885. Louise was diagnosed with tuberculosis in 1893 and, although she was only initially given a few months to live, Arthur took great care of her welfare until her death in 1906. In 1897 Arthur Conan Doyle met a striking younger woman, Jean Leckie, with whom he fell passionately in love. They remained friends for the following decade finally marrying in 1907, a year after Louise’s death. The family moved to Windlesham in Crowborough, to a house that Arthur and Jean substantially renovated.
This incident in Doyle's life is described in the The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire where a woman is mistakenly apprehended for being a vampire and the police separates her from her newly born baby. Her husband has a deformed son who is jealous of the perfect figure of the baby. Sherlock recommends to send the young son for a change of surrounding. Doyle here is the Sussex Vampire, his sick wife is the deformed son and the baby is Doyle's new love. Doyle is also Sherlock. And Doctor Watson as well, a reminder of his younger self.
