Look The Way You Feel

Though I’m in my early 30’s, not quite to the point of being on the downhill side heading to 40, already I can detect those early signs of aging that a woman dreads: wrinkling around my eyes, and other areas of my face. Seeing that us ladies use our facial muscles to express our emotions more so than our male counterparts do (and we do tend to show more emotion than they do, don’t we?), and our skin is more tender than their skin is, it’s a given that over the years our face will start to show the mileage, especially considering the stressful and hectic lives that those of us who are mothers and wives oft time lead.

There is, however, help for those of us who wish to combat this process. BOTOX Cosmetic Injections have been proven to make the wrinkles disappear; giving ones’ face a more youthful appearance. Over 3 million procedures were performed in 2005 in the United States alone, with 90% of those patients being pleased with the results. As with any procedure, there can be risks involved in BOTOX Cosmetic treatment, but with the proper planning and precautions, and the use of a qualified physician, you’ll most certainly be pleased with the results.

I’ve always heard that one should grow old gracefully, but if you feel young, why not look the way you feel? It’s important to feel good about yourself, for when you feel that way, you make those around you in your life feel the same.

Goodbye King of Pop!

As soon as i opened the television this morning, it was Michael Jackson on the headlines. He was brought to the hospital due to cardiac arrest. That's all i heard. I was busy in the kitchen then and i wasn't paying that much attention on the news. The next thing i knew, he's already dead and i found out about it first from another blogger Ellaine. We were talking on the phone when she told me about it. He died July 25th at age 50.

Sad, isn't it? At 50, he can still be considered young and i do believe he still has a lot to offer in the world of entertainment. Well, being the King of Pop that he is, i know he would still be making a lot of people happy with his perfomances worldwide had he not been taken this early. But, well, such is life. We never know until when our life in this world would be. Nevertheless, he'll remain the King of Pop even just in our memories. May he rest in peace.

What To Do When Your Car Conks Out

Don't panic and overreact. Try to keep your cool by breathing deeply, or counting one to 10.

Turn on your hazard lights and carefully move your car to the side of the road, away from the traffic.

Get out of the car, preferably from the passenger side. Assess the situation and condition of your car. Take a look around, and find landmarks and street signs that can help locate where you are.

Make an emergency call with your cellphone. Note: Always have your phone fully charged when leaving your house or office. Keep local emergency numbers such MMDA hotline 136 in your phone directory, or better, in speed dial.

If everything else fails, take a walk but not until you've locked all your car doors. Ask assistance from a police officer or traffic aide posted nearby.

Personal Moving and Storage

Moving can be exhausting but nevertheless, it can still be fun. I was excited when we moved in to our new house before and i guess, i would still feel the same way if we'll do it again.

My New Coin Purse and Cosmetic Bag

Both are from one of my favorite brands - Victoria's Secret, no less. It's been a while that i've been shopping for a coin purse but i wasn't lucky enough to see one that i fancy. It has been weeks that i've been searching for one on eBay until such day that i saw this very cute coin purse. I was really delighted to see one finally, more so when i figured the brand. So, i bought it right away.

Having a cosmetic bag wasn't in my shopping list but i like this one instantly when i saw it, and it's from the same seller wherein i bought the coin purse. So it meant, having to save on the shipping cost. Also, mine was kind of worn out already so i really had no second thoughts of getting a new one.

Aren't they nice? (",)

Rack ‘Em Up Online!

Billiards is one of many games that I find interesting. I’ve tried playing it before with my friends and it was really fun, though I must admit that we’re all not good at it. That was just one of those days that we couldn’t think of anything to do and to kill the time, we played billiards. I wonder when we will be able to do that again.

But I know there’s a lot of billiard games online now that we can play. And since we’re all so busy now, maybe we can all just play online when we find the time at multiplayer games. There, we can enjoy billiards like we used to, and right in the comfort of our homes. It’s for free too. That would be fun.

Music Monday: Ain't No Mountain High Enough by Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell

A song shared to me by my Big Angel last week. The lyrics simply fit us well and guess what? He doesn't have an idea that this is my chosen song for the week. He'll discover this later though and would probably tease me for being sneaky again. Hee hee! Happy Music Monday everyone!

Bring On Good Vibes!

Insecurities can come in all forms and packages. Here are a few ways to tone down those everyday anxieties.

Accept the little flaws. Tone down your inner perfectionist every once in a while. A perfectionist is only momentarily happy, which results in a pretty tedious life. Once you realize that reality is never perfect, you'll learn to appreciate even the small flaws in yourself and your life.

Face your fears. One of the best ways to transform our fears is to discover how realistic they are. Some fears are nothing more than your irrational and scared self taking over. When you see that your fear has been hindering you from doing the things you deserve - like hooking that cute guy at work or taking on a fab job - you'd see that the fear was nothing more than just an imaginary opportunity - gobbling monster.

Think positive about yourself. Staying positive is key to being confident - even in the most trying times. Not only does a sunny disposition make you feel good inside, it also decreases the chances of wrinkles showing or frustrations building up. Opening to all of life's experiences empowers our intuition to become a wiser inner sovereign.

Be yourself. Being yourself isn't as hard as it may seem. Having confidence in ourselves is essential if we're to make our lives what we want them to be. If you can strut your stuff with utmost confidence, without thinking of what others may be thinking of you, then you have made the biggest step to avoiding a super kawawa moment...and finally getting the life you want and deserve.

How To Stop Cramming

Learn the power of N-O-W!

It's easy to delay what's on your to-do-list for chika-time (chitchat time), only to realize that there's already a pile of work waiting to be done. This habit of procrastinating can cost you not just time and energy, but eventually, your career. When you choose to be decisive and move forward, you will enjoy the rewards that go to those who take on the world with gusto.

Music Monday: A Moment Like This by Kelly Clarkson

My most fave song of Kelly's. I've tried singing this in the karaoke but i wasn't successful enough to reach the high notes. Maybe i need to stand on a chair and sing to the top of my lungs. What do you think? He he. Happy Music Monday!

What Your Hair Says About You!

I seldom go to the salon for a haircut since i only get it trimmed once every two months and sometimes three months. Yep! I just let it grow and when i feel like i don't like how i look, then that's the time that i think of a haircut. The last time i had it cut was in March actually. Having it trimmed didn't cross my mind yet up to now. We'll see.

I was supposed to watch the MTV Awards video but it so happen that the trailer was on the site that i visited too. After watching the trailer, the more that i can hardly wait to see the movie which will open on November 27th just yet. And i know i'm not the only one who can't wait to see it. (",)
