This is why I always feel uneasy when I tell you something important via text messages, and it’s also because I can’t see your facial expression and hear your voice tone, whether you’re happy, sad, or upset after you heard it.

I know our last chat on text messages makes you upset, even just a little, and I’m sorry.  I shouldn’t tell you that.  I’m really really sorry :(

Can we got back to a point before that conversation?

“Approximately 1.3 million children and adults in the United States live with congenital heart disease—requiring daily medications, surgeries and for some, heart transplants,” said Dr. Bruneau, who is also a professor of Pediatrics at the University of California, San Francisco, with which Gladstone is affiliated. “An understanding of the epigenetic regulation of heart development could someday bring us closer to improving the lives of these individuals.”

This breakthrough may help researchers improve their understanding of the genetic causes of congenital heart disease while also pointing the way to potential therapies. For example, a type of  called dilated cardiomyopathy is caused by mutations in Eya4, a gene that is also regulated by Ezh2 in the heart.

“Six1 is just one of many Ezh2-regulated genes that are vital for ,” said Dr. Bruneau. “Our next goal is to find out exactly how Ezh2 regulates these other genes, so that we can begin to develop a complete genomic blueprint of how a heart becomes a heart.”

Mozart promotes health as well as happiness. 
by JESSICA CERRETANI 

The effervescence of Mozart’s piano sonatas delights the ear. Evidence now suggests these works may also soothe the psyche—and even support healing. A recent study by Claudius Conrad, a senior surgical resident at Massachusetts General Hospital, randomized postsurgical critically ill intensive-care patients and had them listen to recordings of gentle Mozart piano music for one hour, during which their sedation was lifted. The control group was not exposed to music, but wore headphones to keep the research team and nursing staff blinded as to whether music was being played.

When Conrad and his colleagues tested the patients, they found that classical music reduced blood pressure and heart rate, lowered stress-hormone levels, and reduced the need for sedatives. Another finding was more surprising: The patients’ levels of pituitary growth hormone rose by 50 percent, while levels of interleukin-6, which increases in response to stress, dropped significantly. These changes illustrate the potential of music to encourage relaxation and modulate immunity.

Conrad is well positioned to study the effects of music on health. A concert pianist who trained at conservatories in Bavaria, Germany, he holds not only a medical degree and a doctorate in stem cell biology, but a doctorate in music philosophy as well. His experiences have spurred research into music’s effects on another population: surgeons. In a 2009 study, Conrad tested eight expert surgeons on their speed and accuracy while performing computer-simulated laparoscopic procedures and listening to Mozart, to silence, or to the cacophony of simultaneous German folk music and so-called death metal. He found that, compared with silence, the discordant music slowed the surgeons’ speed in completing their tasks. Classical music, however, seemed to improve their efficiency.

Like many surgeons, Conrad provides his own soundtrack for the operating room. While his playlist contains a few surprises—European techno rap, anyone?—his favorites remain classical pieces. Surgery, he explains, is not unlike a symphony.

Eriwan: Gal, fotoin saya dong..hehe

Galuh: Boleh, mau di manaa??

Eriwan: Di sini ajaaa.., lagi nyium bunga mawar.. :3

Semuanya: ………………………

*take a snap*

*ada ibu-ibu lewat*

*kabuuuuuur.. gak ada yg kenal bocah narsis dan mesos satu ini*

-_____-

HOREEEEE..

Akhirnya untuk melepas kekangenan (dan kesuntukan), geng Tumbal (terdiri atas Eriwan, Tidy, Zikra, Nifa, Camar, Andria, Hilda, Radi, Subhan, dan Ilmi) pergi jalan-jalan (karena ada beberapa orang yg udah suntuk sama Bandung.huhu). Jatohlah pilihan ke..

Taman Bunga Nusantara Cipanas - Cianjur

maskot TBN, Cygnus arriatus atau Black Swan

Yang bisa ikut cuma ber-lima sih (plus Camar bawa adeknya yg super ucul, Lukman) T_______T

Kita berangkat dari SMAN 3 jam setengah sembilan dan nyampe jam setengah 12 karena maceeett.

Nyampe-nyampe Galuh cengo liat itu Angsa Hitam keren banget, apalgi di dalem??

Tiketnya 20 ribu satu orang. Lumayanlah worth it menurut Galuh.

Masuk-masuk, kita langsung disuguhkan dengan pemandangan yang indah bangeeeeett!!!

foto amatiran, tapi lumayanlah..hehe

Di sana kita langsung jalan-jalan ngeliatin pemandangan. Ada Taman Jepang, Taman Perancis, Rose Garden, Taman Bali, Taman Mediteran, dll. Tapiii yg paling kereeeen adalah Taman Labyrinth..

Tadinya mau kejar-kejaran ala Running Man loooh!!! Sampe niat bawa lonceng mau diiketin ke kaki atau tangan biar makin tegang. wkwkwkwk :p

Sayang gak jadi karena banyak orang.huhu.

Di dalam, kita juga bawa tiker dan makan di sana. Masing-masing orang wajib bawa makanan apa dan voila, inilah makanan kami semua

Kasian tuh keripik Karuhun, gak ada yg makan. PEDES BANGET!!

Selesai makan (sangat kekenyangan), kami langsung tukeran kado. wooohoooo.. Sayang gak ada fotonya, tapi Galuh dapet sesuatu yang ada tulisan unyu dan kerennyaa.. :3

What is the most important in life?

Although time may change so many things, happiness and friendship never change - tulisan di hadiah dari Tekstidinegari Thaufik :3

haha..

Abis itu kita jalan lagi dan foto-foto (so pasti..hehe)

Kita di sana sampe jam 3 sore dan berencana lanjut ke Taman Safari (excited banget karena belum pernah) tetapi gak jadi. huhuhu..

Udah deh kita pulang, beli oleh-oleh buat orang yg disayang di rumah, hari itu berakhir deh..

Kapan-kapan, Tumbal harus main lagi dan FULL TEAM!!! ^o^ Love you all!!

p.s. Tidy yg kerudung hijau, Camar kerudung putih (sama adiknya Lukman), Zikra si kacamata hitam, dan si (ganteng Korea) Eriwan yg berkemeja ^____^
