Vaseline Pure Petroleum - Works better than any ChapStick. It even looks good as a basic, [clear] gloss. I’ve even slathered it on my face and slept with it on (put a towel over your pillow case!) when my face was particularly dry. When I washed it off in the morning, my skin was amazingly soft and gorgeous. This product is so versatile.

Clinique Skin Cushion Body Wash, $19.50 - “I recently bought this, and it’s amazing! It foams well, smells great and really moisturizes the skin. No shaving foam needed! I can see exactly why people stick with this product for years once they’ve tried it.”

Kerastase Masque Age Recharge Firming Masque for Devitalized Hair, $58 - “My mom (who is 55) and I (25) both love this stuff. We have very different hair types, but it is a miracle product for both of us. I use it as my daily conditioner (you only need a little), and honestly my hair feels so healthy and soft. I know that hair is dead and it’s impossible to mend/heal/make healthy, but of all the hair treatments I’ve used, this is one of the best.”

Olay Complete All Day UV Moisture Lotion, $8.99 - “I love this moisturizer. I have always worn SPF, and throughout my teens and 20s I needed an oil-free product. But in the past couple of years (I’m now 30), I’ve needed a little extra moisture but still something very gentle that won’t clog my pores. This has fit the bill perfectly through many sweaty summers and flaky winters, and all I have to do is adjust the amount I use when the weather changes, rather than switch to a heavier or lighter product. It soaks right in and takes my powder foundation smoothly. Yay!”

Nars Blush, $25 -This blush is very natural-looking. I use it every single day. I have always been afraid of blush because I’m very pale. So I’ve always been afraid that blush would give me an unnatural, garish-looking color on my cheeks. But this blush is the best color I’ve ever used.

MAC Eye Shadow, $14 - MAC eyeshadow colors hold up all day long [and] blend well, which allowed me to understand the artistry of makeup that I had no concept of before. Every pot is well worth the money. Although this site describes the pans as ‘tiny,’ they last a LONG time. In most cases, far longer than cheaper brands. I need to apply so much less to achieve the color payoff I want in my makeup.

Herbal Essences Hello Hydration 2-in-1 Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner, $3.99 - This product works very well in the wintertime when your hair needs moisture but you don’t have the time to shampoo then rinse then apply conditioner then rinse again! Also [it] does not make your hair look oily like some conditioners do. It works well on taming frizz too!

Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion, $3.29- I asked the pharmacist why so many lotions made me itch, and she said that it probably was the parabens, so I started trying products that did not have parabens. Ever since, I check ingredients for parabens. This is one of the few products that does not have parabens, and since I started using Aveeno, I have had NO problems. It goes on nicely and blends in quickly so that your hands are not greasy-feeling. It has been a lifesaver for me.”

Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion, $16 -I must have the oiliest lids on the planet. Nothing, and I mean nothing, ever stopped my eyeshadow from creasing. Even the crease-proof creased. That is until I met Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion. I can’t believe that I didn’t invest in this before. I still do have slight fading from blue eyeshadow, and I do get creasing when I layer cream shadow on top of the primer (but if I place powder shadow on top of the primer then layer on cream shadow, I don’t get any creasing). My shadow looks like I just put it on for hours and hours.”

mark Glow Baby Glow Luxe Hook-Up Lip Gloss, $5 - This is one of those glorious rare products that is not only cheap but really works. It has such great shine and isn’t sticky at all. Also, the colors layer over lipstick really well. It also has just a little bit shimmer, which is nice. Lastly, gotta love the ‘hook-up’ option so the little tubes don’t get lost in your purse.”

CHI 1 Inch Ceramic Flat Iron, $89.95 - This is an excellent flatiron. It heats within 30 seconds and delivers smooth, straight, silky hair quickly and efficiently. I’ve been straightening my long curly hair with this for over four years now, and my hair is still shiny and healthy despite everyday use. I recommend using this iron with Bumble and bumble Straight (a silicone-based serum) for best results.”

A fact that cannot be denied among girls is they crave for chocolates. Why is it that they go crazy over chocolates? Is it the taste, texture or the sweetness that made us madly obsessed with this candy? I thought of this for a while. Don’t feel sorry girls because a lot of things can be benefited with munching of chocolates. But let us remind ourselves that too much of everything is harmful to us. So just eat the right kind of amount.

Some facts about chocolate:

Chocolate contains more than 300 known chemicals.

Caffeine is the most well known of these chemical ingredients, and while it’s present in chocolate, it can only be found in small quantities. Theobromine, a weak stimulant, is also present, in slightly higher amounts. The combination of these two chemicals (and possibly others) may provide the “lift” that chocolate eaters experience.

Phenylethylamine is also found in chocolate. It’s related to amphetamines, which are strong stimulants. All of these stimulants increase the activity of neurotransmitters (brain chemicals) in parts of the brain that control our ability to pay attention and stay alert.

See? Chocolates help us to be alert and quick thinker!

Recent research at the University of California, Davis, has found that chocolate carries high levels of chemicals known as phenolics, some of which may help lower the risk of heart disease. Plants such as chocolate, coffee, tea, and others contain high levels of phenolics.

The good news is that most of the bad effects of eating chocolate are either overstated or entirely false. Eating chocolate neither causes nor aggravates acne. Two studies — one by the Pennsylvania School of Medicine and another by the U.S. Naval Academy — showed that eating chocolate (or not eating it) did not produce any significant changes in the acne conditions of the study’s participants. These results are further backed by research which shows that acne is not primarily linked to diet.

More chocolates please…

Yesterday I bought some M&M’s with me, it contains soy products, peanuts, milk and may contain almonds. Before buying some chocolate, it is wise to check on its information and ingriedients.

WHAT IS THE HEALTHIEST CHOCOLATE?

It’s a fact that plain dark chocolate products containing a minimum 70% or more cocoa solids are the healthiest and the best way to satisfy a craving for chocolate, without consuming too much sugar and saturated fat or HVO. If your a Milk or White Chocolate lover, choose products with a minimum of 30% chocolate solids (Milk Chocolate) or 30% chocolate butter (white chocolate).

Chocolate lovers go wrong by choosing cheap (& not so cheap) “brand name” chocolate or chocolates, low in chocolate solids (ave is less than 20% chocolate solids, but some can contain less than 7%), all are high in sugar content, saturated fats and other health hazards such as HVO (Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil) and consequently can be disastrous for both teeth and health.

Incidentally, filled chocolates, both the commercial variety and (sadly) many handmade chocolates varieties, are some of the worst culprits with fillings consisting almost exclusively of flavoured Fondant and Praline, fondant is virtually 100% sugar and pralines can be just as bad.

This I’ve been doing for a week and it seems to prolong the boredom I feel in life right now. My life is so scheduled and repetitive in which I definitely dislike. At 5:40 am I would wake up, take a shower, get dressed, and prepare for breakfast. Before 7:00 am, I walk 50 meters and reach a road and ride a vehicle to the office. At the office, I sit down and work, work, work till 3:00 pm strikes. And my work? It’s the never ending compilation of porn materials, who would be happy at the thought of it? Unless you’re a porn addict, this project would thrill you. As for me, I kinda want to protest about it .After duty, I’d go ahead back to home, boarding house actually but I’d prefer to call it a home. In one weeks time I almost memorize the banners and streamers along the way. Arriving home alone, I’d open the gate and welcome myself in. I’d sit for a while and decide to listen to music. Sometimes I’d nap and wake up at 4:30 - 5:00 pm. But that is rare to happen, when I’m not sleeping, I immediately go for a drink (milk) and prepare for supper, I eat supper around 5:30 to 6:00 pm. After fixing the kitchen, I’d fix myself, wash my face and all the stuff a woman do following her daily regimen. After that? It’s too early to go to bed, sometimes I do laundry and scrub the floor. When nothing is left to do, I would lie down and read a novel. Thanks to a friend who happily lends her books to me. And then my housemate would arrive also from their work, tired. We would chat for a while and get back to scanning the book I’m reading ,until I became drowsy and feel asleep. But before that I would prepare my bag for morrows work. I would wake up tomorrow with the same flow of scenes. Till one day while walking for home I was telling myself. This is so boring and so predictable. Isn’t it wrong to pray for challenges to come along? I feel so static. I want something new. I want some action in my life, something thrilling, suspense and mixed with drama. I want to worry sometimes, to think about something. “God, is it wrong to ask some changes in my life?”

I cannot forget how the movie ‘Cinema Paradiso’ left a remarkable influence in my life.Since the day I got to watched it, I become so delighted about its story and its protagonist and the love of his love. The movie opened up my mind and wondered if true love does really exist.The movie exemplifies about the necessity to let go of the past.The protagonist wouldn’t know how to let go. He is unfortunately trapped from the past.Even though he became so wealthy and all his material needs are meet,sadness can be glimpse at his face. Almost all pretty women would run after him but this does not satisfies him.After learning that his first love is married to his bestfriend, he soon realized that he need to get a life and start a new one.It’s true that first love is hard to forget and it’s impossible to forget them either but it’s crazy to wait and expect for the old flame to come back. We need to get up from our feet so we can recover and be whole again. Back to the movie, I suggest you watch it, it will really move you. It is a 1988 film and it centers about love, friendship, family, art (making of movies). It won an Oscar Award of Best Foreign Language Film, Best Film,Best Music, Actor of the Year on 1991 and

There is a guy I named ‘another pain’. It is only I who knows this since I never
shared it to anyone. Let’s say I have had a bad experience in lovelife a year ago,a heartbreaking letting go of someone. And after a while I finally give in into falling in love again (not that deep kind of feeling, it was just an attraction maybe) to a guy named ‘another pain’.I named him that way simply because I can feel that he is another pain or who would just add pains maybe because he cannot love me back.
Anyway, I’m not asking him for that.That’s too much.
There are so many another pains in the world. They are everywhere, unstoppable and their number continues to grow. The more another pain, the more tears to flow. LOL

I thought of you today and reflect on the good things
life has brought since you came. I would like to show you
what you have made to me and would like to thank you for these things.
Thank you for watching my direction and for following me whenever I tend to stumble
Thank you for telling me that these words exists: hope, love and faith
Thank you for seeing my worth
Thank you for making me believe that there is love after it has lost
Thank you for making my eyes glow again
Thank you for making me feel that I am needed and of importance
Thank you for making me feel that I’m in my best every time I smile
Thank you for finding me
Thank you for showing me these things and that love is worth sacrificing and worthbelieving
Thank you for making me feel that I still deserve to be loved

There are times that I cannot escape to the idea of how bad being single is, not that really bad but there are disadvantages of not having a partner. In every situation there are advantages and disadvantages but let me tell you few disadvantages of being one.

These are just what my heart tells me so at the moment, but this does not mean to be true at all times, these statements could change any time until I fall again.

Our company’s Christmas Party took place last December 20, 2008 in a distinguished restaurant in the City. It run very well with gowns and coat and tie worn by my respected co-workers (I’m in the white gown). Everybody looked so fabulous and elegant so I make sure to keep some pictures of the said event. Above are few copies for you to view.

While I was listening to music over the radio, I heard a familiar song that’s been played several times. But only then that I realized what was truly the meaning of the song, It was indeed a meaningful song, it’s like a man is lovely serenading the love of his life, and the words it utter is uniquely crafted with words that will surely make women swept off with a smile when offered such a song. It makes a woman know her value, her worth and I’m sure woman would like that that they know that someone needs them. So here, I searched on the full lyrics of the my new added favorite song in my lists.
