New Look of My Page

I have been thinking of changing my webpage and the change just now happens. My wish was to create my very own page with my own coding and design but it will take me forever to do the alteration. Though I already have a design lay out but the coding is somewhat a problem to me since I only learn few writing codes. The technical process is the hindrance so I might use other people's creativity and add some of my own touch to fit the theme of my blog.

Photo of the day - Bronzy Look

Friday night I was thinking of doing a bronze look inspired by so many tutorials over the web. I want to look warm and have that coppery feel. So here's what I got.

Tricky Homework

Oh man I was doing a practical set of one of my homework. It took me 2 full days to work on it and not even finish it. Man the difference of $2.50 was so tricky that I have to review every task that I did and I ended up doing it again almost at the very beginning. I have wasted my time. I should have did it from the start to correct the problem. I am sure there's a way how to do it but because of frustrations my head didn't get to think straight. Gush, this is part of being a student. My weekend was ruined.

Update after awhile

Well, it has been awhile since writing my last post. Quite so busy with school and my time is so hectic these days. I can't wait school to be over. I have not rested well enough. I have been doing so many homework and lots of reading. I was supposed to take 3 classes but I don't have the time for 3 so I dropped 1 class. It could have been a good training for me. Time is just so hectic I don't want to neglect my personal life as well. I also have less time spending it with friends. I can only do when I have few hours to spend. It's rare these days because of so much reading and homework. Just these week we have our midterm and I did it in flying colors with one subject and the other one will be graded next month, there's the thrill if my score is perfect or just bare pass it.

My photography is neglected as well. I haven't done any reading nor practice. Even my online training I at times forget that I paid for it. Just so busy! I am looking forward for the end of May to get out of school.

Back To school

Well, well well what can I say? This is a drastic move. I haven't thought of it until I've realized there's no way for me to grow in my career if I don't take classes. I may have a degree in accounting in the PI but with no experience here accounting per say, companies just snob me. I hate it and I don't like it. So I hope just taking few classes can help boost my resume and confidence of a new employer. I hope one day I can get in to accounting field. I need a change so bad. I am already bored not growing at work.

So, with my 3 classes that I am taking, I don't know if I still have the energy to have some fun with other extra activities. Work, home and school is a challenge. I haven't tried taking 3 classes in one time. I don't know how I can manage with all of these. I will be a busy bee..

Good Or Bad

Well I feel bad working today. I do everything in the office with no help. My manager is out of the office and my other help is sick. The phones are quite busy. Over hundred calls setting up appointments and hearing some complaints. I know I should not complain about it since I got a stable job but sometimes dealing with people on the phone and co-workers are hard to deal with. It's stress extensive when your phone line system sucks too!

I hate our phone line. I already complain about it. It doesn't really help reduce the stress level when you only have a minute to talk to one line at a time. You will hear this irritating sound of the lines your holding. I have no choice whether to keep it ringing or I will hold the other lines to stop the alarming sound. But with 1 minute it doesn't really help. I ended up having bad donors complaining about why I keep them on hold all the time. The people who invented this system from Toshiba sucks! Our facility people sucks too for keeping this phone at our department.

I also feel bad not even receiving credit for my hardwork today. It's just so bad when people take advantage of you. What can I do this is my work for now? I might have my good days when it's slow. Sometimes it's hard to think the positive when you are at the moment of stress.

New Changes on My Blog

I reviewed CSS codes this past few days and you can see some changes on the blog. I am not done yet and will keep on learning how to fix this page. I want a different look so I will keep on doing editing, changing until I learn how to design my own page. I don't want to pay somebody else to do it for me. I like learning new stuff so I don't mind the time.

Eye Make UP - Smokey Purple

How gorgeous the color of the purple looks? Isn't it amazing? Do you think it looks good on me? For me this is by far my perfect try out. I was not too sure how the color will turn out. The mirror I have used in the bathroom was too deceiving. Maybe 3 layers upon layers. Looking at the mirror I saw it wasn't. When I see this picture, I was happy to come up with more thickness of color. I hope I won't forget the technique. This isn't my 2nd nature so it's quite tedious for me. I might as well write it down here so I can go back and review this when I want to do this look again.

Playing my Wii - Just Dance 3

I am very frustrated with my weight and very insecure about it. I may just smile when people say that I gained but deep inside I feel disgusted. I don’t get mad to people who noticed my weight but I am upset about myself why I didn’t care about it. I don’t get discourage just because people say so. What has been happening to me was my fault. Sugar, carbs, bad diet and no exercise perfect to escalate pounds.

In a positive note, I don’t want to add more clothes sizes again. I want to get back to size 1 and no problem with wearing small size outfits. In doing so, I purchased this game from Nintendo Just Dance 3. I push myself to use it. Actually, I left it unattended for weeks since I bought it. This week I told myself I spend money for this thing I have to use it.

I need to do something about my body. I don’t want to be like this anymore. I want to wear the dress I bought last year. I don’t want to throw money away to buy new big sizes when the clothes were only worn once. That’s not practical and I have to be real. There are so many people in the world wanted to get new clothes but no money to buy. Here I am feels like somebody who only wear clothes once. It’s not for real and I need to be real and practical.

Here's my progress for 4 days. I am sore and keep on pushing. I don't really know how to convert the sweat part to calories but I felt like I burned 200 or more. I hope that I will continue to do this and will be a routine for life. I will be thinking positive.

Successful curls

I was really excited when I achieved a perfect curl. Though my pictorial was not a success since majority of the pictures taken was blurry. Still, with the many pictures taken I got a few that were sharp and clear. Proud to say this was my best curls. Practice makes perfect! I am getting there. Until the next curls lol!

Products use: Treseme Thermal Spray for heat protection and GVP ionic hair straightener. I didn't put hair spray after. The curls hold longer and the curls were amazing. Sorry for no tutorials and video.. I am not fond of it.

Fall Cleaning

When the husband says he wants to help clean the house, I would go for it. Who doesn’t like the help, right? I am lucky that hubby is a neat freak and it’s one of the qualities I like about him. So the plan is to clean the house before the month ends. It’s going to be a general cleaning. I will try as much as I can to get the house clean.

Anyway, I did my cleaning last week and I started from our kitchen dining table. It’s been awhile that my decorative plants are on top of the dining table. It’s quite a mess actually. The plants need some room and space to breathe. They already have a good location now near the window. The plant stand that hubby bought was perfect for it.

More cleaning to do in the following days ahead.. I hope for the best :)

Eye Make Up - In Blue

Saturday evening I attended a party and the chance to wore make up. I tried to apply what I've been seeing online. I used youtube and other make up guru who has their own blog site.

The make up I used for this post was a collection I got from Coastal Scents. It's cheaper and reasonable price to play around. Since eye make up doesn't give me trouble allergy per say, I got it with joy. Cheap and useful! It will lasts forever. What can I ask for? Well, there is more but I will start first with this.

Goodies from a Friend

I was shock to receive so many good cosmetic products from a friend. This friend of mine I recently meet just a month ago. Our friendship started online where we were introduced by a common friend. It has been 2 years or more. I am really glad I finally met her and our schedule coincides. She seemed to be a very nice girl. I like her personality and the way she thinks about life and future plans. We are both in the same page. I like that.

This was our first date. We went to watched a movie and she treated me at Tomatina.

Anyway, just few days ago. She sent me a message through text and told me that she will give me the rest of the products she got from bare minerals. The products didn't suit her sensitive skin while she knew that I am using that cosmetics she gave me all what she has. I was so delighted when I got it because I never thought it was a lot. I was only expecting maybe 1 or 2 powder and just few eyeshadows but I really was surprised about it. So I am thankful for her thoughtfulness and generosity.

So many right? I am blessed.

Boracay as one of the World's Best Islands

Proud to say as a native from the Philippines and have been to the islands twice that Boracay is featured as one of the world's best islands. Finally, it's featured now! I really like the white fined sand, the crystal waters and of course one of the best sunset.

The article was written in yahoo at World's Best Islands. Hopefully this will drive those beach bum all over the world. I also wish that the government can continue to protect the island, its people and the tourism industry.

Headache again

Monday afternoon was so excruciating pain and agony. I was working barely seeing clearly what's the text on my pc. Pretending I am doing okay. I lasted the day to work and in fact I got to shop some food. I was trying hard to get all the groceries inside my place, did the dishes and after I just laid flat on the couch. The pain lasted all evening until I went to bed. I slept early probably before 10pm. I woke up exhausted and my throat was too dry. I decided to stay home and get well rested.

I still have on and off headache and laying flat makes it go away. I hope what I am feeling isn't too bad. I really have myself checked what's going on with getting casual headaches. This has been going for a time probably 2 years now. Hope nothing's wrong.

Sweet please leave me

My body is acting weird and the weight is sky rocketing. I am guilty for not eating good with all those unhealthy food. I am getting frustrated how the change of my body. I never have problems with any food. I can eat as much as I can and no weight gain. Now, just how small the bad food I will take. Few weeks from that it will show.

I am not pregnant if you might be thinking. Sorry but it's not. It's a false hope. But I am hoping one day I will. It could be a miracle probably. Who knows when I could be lucky to conceive. The only concern I have now is that I don't want to get ballooned with all the unhealthy food I have been craving so bad. Frappucino, chocolates and cakes will you go away? Can I resist you? At least one is missing now the ice cream. I already get over with it. I don't have much cravings like the way I used to be like 2 months ago. But the rest, I am trying really hard if I can pull the cravings away. Can I start today? I hope so. I want to wear the new pants I just bought which won't fit. Geez!

Frustrated soloist

I think it was 2 weeks ago that I wanted to play the songs that I want and guess what I tried.. Hope you don't mind and just bare the mess of the camera orientation, the skills and the voice. Reminiscing my childhood days when I was good. Now no more lol.. not playing for many years with no practice whatsoever... to count maybe i only recently played 3x.

I tried to record another video but it seems it's not okay. I will stick to this. Our landscaping guy was making noise. Sorry about the background!




After so many attempt.. i finally posted this video.

Into Plaid and Stripes

Just few months ago, I changed some of my work wardrobe. Weight has something to do with it and I recently find out websites that are pretty good with sales and discounts so I was kind of hook about it. I spend a little more with working clothes since I haven't really doing that for 2 years. Can you think about the savings I get LOL! If not for the weight, I could have stick to my old clothes.

Anyway, I don't know why but my preferences now for work clothes are plaid, stripes and of course I love solid colors. It's just hard for me to find discounts on solid so with the budget I have I stick to plaid and stripes. But it's good quality and well known brand. I am so happy I can purchase it online rather than going to stores. I hate going to the mall. LOL! Am I weird? No, I just hate to walk. LOL! Now, that causes the weight gain.

Burned Thumb

Today was an exciting day for me to try a different technique to curl my hair. Sorry guys for this obsession of mine. I always do this thing when I am into something. I won't stop until I get the best out of it. It has been weeks that I read and watched tutorial online about how to curl hair.

So, what I did today was I bought a new hair straightener from Sally's beauty salon. I got the GVP ionic ceramic styling iron. I could have like the nano but I was kind of worried that I might just wasting money on expensive products. So I stick to my budget and got it. I intend to use the iron straightener to speed up the process of curling. Indeed, I was really surprised how fast it is. Less than an hour, I was finished and not even get stressed about it. The beginning was little tricky but then I got the hang of it after few attempts.

The curl was fabulous. Still messy! I want it to be clean. Maybe another day. I will try it one more time.

I used 3 products to set up the hair. I wanted to protect my hair from the heat. First, I used the thermal spray. Then, the light styling spray and the curling gel spray. All three was used and hoping to that it could hold the curl with my thick hair. It was a success because the curl really lasts. I didn't have to use another product just to hold the curl.

Using a new thing and getting used to it was a learning curve and I got a little accident while doing the process. I burned my left thumb. It's a little painful actually. I never been burned from an iron before. This iron from GVP can really burned your beautiful fingers. It really heats up fast that you don't have to wait forever. I am glad the accident wasn't that awful. Still, no matter how small the burn it's painful.

The red burned thumb. It's okay I survived! lol!
