I know it's kind of late to do this tag but, oh well here it is.<br />
<br />
Dear 15 year old Jen,<br />
<br />
How does it feel being in a new school? I bet being in an all girls school is something new for you since you have been used to Co-Ed ever since you were young. Don't worry about it, hanging out with a bunch of chics will help you increase your self awareness.<br />
I know right now things are difficult for you. You thought that migrating to another city is the best solution for everyone. I regret to tell you, it's not. Dad lost his campaign in his hometown. Because of that, it teared the whole family down. Mom have had enough so she decided to let you stay at your grand uncle's home while she's back in Zamboanga. During this time, I know you're on your own. Jen, I know how stubborn you are. You think that you can have things your way. You thought that your grand uncle and your relatives would submit to the things you are used to. Well, they wouldn't. Though they are your relatives, that is not your home. You are not a princess anymore. You left your friends back home. You have a lot of things to learn. You will be forced to grow early and make decisions that are too big for you. Don't worry, you will soon realize that you don't have to go through all those alone. In school, you will meet different personalities that are unfamiliar to you. This is the time you start to struggle with trust. You don't know who you should believe nor rely on. You didn't want anyone to know the real you. You were too ashamed to admit you're lost. So you lied, and lied, and lied. Your classmates started to judge you and made fun of you. The two best friends you thought you can rely on would turn their backs on you so don't get yourself attached because you won't be able to forget. Don't worry about it, you will still be able to find a true friend in your class. Remember Sharmila? The one you used to have difficulty figuring out? You will still find yourself hanging out with her 7 years from now. <br />
I know that you're thinking of going back to where you were from. Go ahead. You are still too young to be on your own and you have to accept that age pays a high price for maturity. Your parents are back together again but don't expect the trials end there. You will meet your first boyfriend when you come back home. Don't expect him to be the last because he's not. I'm sorry to tell you that it's going to be a unhealthy relationship. Every fight will lead to violence. No, Jen, it's not normal. No, you can't change him. No, you can never live according to his standards. You will be choked because people expect you to be perfect at all times. You should understand, you're only human. Around 2007, you will surely meet someone who would help you open your eyes to a lot of things. This person would make you feel certain things that can't be explained. You will surely ask yourself why. That question will remain in you for the years to come. I wish I could tell you the answer to your questions but up to this day, I still haven't figured it out yet. Until then, you will just have to be patient. Follow your dreams. College is full of fun, too. So live it up while you can because things will get serious when your done with school. Peter will be there for you aside from your parents. Study hard, okay? Your friends that you fought with when you were in high school and those people that you had confrontations with back in college, they would underestimate you. So expect them to belittle you, judge you, call you dumb and insult your school. Don't worry about them, you will eventually prove them wrong when you finally become a registered nurse and when you go to med school while they're too busy wasting their college courses over irrelevant jobs for the sake of money. So, smile and be thankful that despite the problems that you will face along the way, you still have your dream. You still have the chance to build your future. Wheb you're finally in med school, things will start to change. You will learn independence. You will learn to leave home. You and your parents thought you won't make it on your own. Congrats, Jen, you just did because I'm writing this letter inside the room that I'm renting near school. You would be able to move to your new home as soon as it's done so be patient. Above all, stay humble. You may be feeling sorry at others who used to degrade you but remember that you are all created equally. One day, you would be able to appreciate them as they are. The most important thing is to keep the flame burning. You have this strong desire to become a physician someday. Believe in yourself and have faith that God is with you at all times. Stay positive, Jen.<br />
<br />
Love,<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hey guys! It has been a while since I last wrote an entry.
I’ve been through a lot for the past few weeks and it has been the busiest and
the most difficult year by far. Wooh. Anyway, enough rambling.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have decided to share to you some of the easiest and
healthiest ways of taking care of your curls whether it’s natural or salon
treated. For those of you who already have curly hair or are planning to have
their locks curled, I hope these steps would be helpful for you.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

</span><b>Never dry your wet hair with towel or blow dry</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I know that this may seem to be the hardest
thing to do and it can be such a hassle when you are rushing in the morning.
However, you should know that towel drying your hair produces friction as it
makes your hair more brittle. Remember, hair is at it’s weakest when it’s wet.
Blow drying your locks also strips out your hair natural moisture especially if
your curls are salon treated. If you must, use a heat protectant and make sure
your blow drier is at it’s coolest setting when you dry the hair.</span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Leave your wet hair as it is and I promise,
you would be able to see better looking and more manageable curls when it dries
out.</span></div>

This is the Hair care 101 for curly hair. You don’t want to cause split ends
and you don’t want to ruin your hair. If you feel like there are so much tangle
going on, use a wide toothed comb for your hair. Use a conditioner when you
shower to keep your curls soft and smooth all day.</span></div>

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Even though you think that your hair is not
at all damaged, do you really have to wait till your hair becomes dry and
brittle before you use a treatment? Prevention is always better than cure.
Curly hair is very prone to damage compared to straight hair.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Assess your hair if it’s limpy or frizzy.
Volumizing mousse for limpy hair and anti-frizz mousse for the untamed locks.
There are a variety of products to choose from in the market. If you wish to
keep your curls in place without them looking very stiff, choose a curl
defining mousse that has self-adjusting properties. I personally like Finesse
Curl Defining mousse. It really emphasizes the curls while keeping it natural
looking! I finish the look with a good hair polish to make it look extra shiny
and keep it from looking dry.</span></div>

</span><b>Let your hair breather once in a while.</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Since curly hair needs a lot of maintenance
and styling, it is important to keep your hair from product build ups and just
let it loose. On a weekend, wash your hair and just let it be wild and messy!
(Make sure you don’t have plans for the day) Also, it really helps if you
restore moisture back to your hair by applying treatment.</span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I personally believe that since hair
becomes brittle from all the chemical products, it doesn’t help at all if you
treat it with chemical products as well. I prefer to use natural products since
they help nourish the hair back to health and they don’t have chemical
additives.</span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My favorite go to treatment is Mayonnaise.
I know it sounds weird to use that but mayonnaise contains fats and oils with
emulsifiers that help bring back the natural oils to your hair. It literally
fattens up your hair. I’ve been using it for a while now and I never had split
ends nor dry hair since then! Plus, it makes the hair extra shiny!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you are planning to have your hair curled, I suggest that
you consider some things before jumping on with your decisions:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1.<span style="font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal 'Times New Roman';">
</span>Assess your hair type. Is it thin? Is it thick?
If you have thin hair, curly hair may add volume and texture to your hair.
However, if you have thin hair due to hair fall, think twice before taking the
leap because introucing chemicals to your hair will surely add damage. If you
have thick hair like mine, think well if you are prepared enough to have the
big hair. Thicker hair means bigger maintenance.</span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2.<span style="font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal 'Times New Roman';">
</span>Assess the level of damage to your hair. If you
have dry hair because of the many salon treatments you have had before, it is
wise to just let your hair have a break. Many girls think that if they curl
their locks, the damage would look less visible. That’s a wrong perception. You
have no idea how much it can exacerbate the condition of your hair. If you have
normal or oily hair, it doesn’t make your hair safe. You should keep the
moisture by putting extra efforts in taking care of your hair.</span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3.<span style="font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal 'Times New Roman';">
</span>Think about your level of commitment. Everyone
can have curly hair but not everyone can pull the look off. I see a lot of
girls who get easily tired of curly hair and just decide to have it chopped off
or straightened then the next thing I find out, they already have poorly damaged
hair. Curly hair is the most difficult to maintain so if you are too lazy to
take good care of your hair or you have no time for these styling rituals,
better be safe than sorry.</span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4.<span style="font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal 'Times New Roman';">
</span>Master your facial features. You may have the
perfect hair, you may have all the time in the world to style your locks but
all of these would be useless if curls don’t fit your features. Always remember
that curls emphasize the shape of your face. So if you have round or square
face, be careful of that. There’s one good news though, you can always do
something about it as long as you know which length you should have, how big
the curls have to be and which style of hair cut fits your facial shape. Ask
your stylist about it.</span></div>

thought about having my locks curled for the longest time but never actually
prepared myself for this kind of mishaps. Hahaha! Over all, I like it a lot and
I feel like a brand new person with it.</span></div>

I know I haven't been updating much on my blog. I've been really busy with work and it has been stressing me out since day one. It's a good thing that I have a best friend who would dare to cross the borders with me just to unwind and have a good time despite the crazy hustle and bustle of city life.<br />

Would you believe we only rode a jeep to reach this place? LOL :) Sharm and I decided to meet at SM Cebu mall and looked for a jeep to Liloan. Liloan, by the way, is far from the city proper. It's almost on the countryside. It took us an hour to get to the Papakit's Resort. It was our first time there.<br />

At first when we got there, I thought the place was just all pond and cottages because it looked like there was nothing else to see. There were people riding boats and fishing out at the pond. I thought we would do the same.<br />

The zipline was definitely the highlight of our adventure. We conquered 800 meters back and forth. We just couldn't get enough of it. While we were watching the other riders, they seem to take too long to finish the 800 meters but when it was our turn to ride, it felt too fast like it was less than 50 seconds! MORE!!! <br />

post is more about my thoughts and recent realizations.</span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">I don’t know
if it’s just me or is life getting more serious now than it was before? I feel
like I have completed all the things that I wanted to try and I’m getting tired
of them. I just want to be able to grow as an individual. I want to learn more.
I want to earn more. I want to give more. I can’t believe I am saying this but it
is as if I am ready for a new responsibility.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Everything
was at the greatest peak until things have started to change. I started to feel
tired. I got what I wanted. What’s the point now? This whole chilling out was
getting tiresome. I counted how many times I went out to party since I passed
the NLE. I only went out less than 5 times. I enjoyed staying at home and being
a home buddy. I enjoyed talking to Peter about life and plans for the future. I enjoyed helping out in the office when I can. I
enjoyed reading different articles about health. Most importantly, I enjoyed
going back to the basics. I looked for my friends to have meaningful
conversations. My two best friends were busy. One of them just graduated from college
while the other is in Law school. My two other girl friends are currently living in the States. They were my comfort and I miss them a lot. My close friends were also busy with
their other friends. The only time I got to see them is when we were at Catribo
and they happen to be there. I tried to get a hold of them but for every time I
tried, there was nothing sensible to talk about. We were growing apart.</span></span></div>

friends of friends that I don’t even know. I don’t want to talk about exes and
how shameful they look like now. I don’t want to talk about guys and their rides. I
don’t want to talk about partying and getting wild. </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"> I just don’t want to talk when there’s nothing
worth talking about. </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Call me boring but I don’t
see any sense to that stuff. I’m starting to become choosy with friends. I want to have
a friend that has a good influence, someone who can come over and stay the
whole day at my house as we watch different DVD movies rather than party and
talk about boys. After all, friends are an extension of yourself.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">When
Sharmila came and visited me from Cebu, we had a lot of fun trying new things.
We went to the barter. We rode the zip lines. We watched the sunset. We went
out for a swimming and had dinner later that night. We also partied with my
friends. All those happened in just 2 days. While partying, we were inside the
Halo. I was very hesitant to have fun because of last year’s incident with
Peter. I sat in the corner for almost 2 hours while the others were all dancing.
I was not influenced by alcohol at all. I was just watching all the people
crowding inside the small pub. I noticed that most of the girls were
intoxicated and sweaty. They were dancing heavily while the guys slowly moved
toward them and tried to take advantage. This is the main reason why I don’t go
to a disco pub with girls only. I should really have guy friends with me
especially my boyfriend because I don’t want perverts trying to have their
hands crawl on me, let alone come close to me. Peter had surprisingly loosened
up for me and I was starting to go back to my good mood.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Things went well and
we all enjoyed the night. I know that this only happens once in a blue moon. I
thought to myself, “Is this the kind of night life I want to enjoy every other
weekend? Girls coming in killer heels and skin tight clothing with their thick
makeup on then leave looking all like they just came out from a terrible cat
fight? I would rather wear a cute dress to a nice dinner and head to the
boulevard for a balot and chicharon.” Yes, I would rather eat cheap than look
cheap. I’m sorry if this may sound offensive but this is after all, my
perspective.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"> I just feel like, there's more to life than just all the partying and having fun. It may sound strange that all these come from a carefree person like me but then I realized, what's the point of having fun when there's no good reason for it. I wanna have fun because I accomplished something great, not because I am bored. The socialites that I used to hangout with have now become strangers to me. It's okay, I don't mind. In the end, you have to choose whether to keep living your life the way they live theirs or give yourself direction and make a better difference. I would always go for the second option.</span></span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I bet a lot of us bloggers here are already on our early 20s. At this age, our skin is at it's healthiest and our collagen production is full. However, as much as I hate to break it to you, by the age of 25, our healthy cells will start to deteriorate and our collagen production will decrease. This is the start of aging process. Once you age, you can never reverse it unless you go under the knife. Age repair creams are useless. I repeat, useless.<br />
<br />
My mom is a complete health freak and she's very conscious about her skin. She's already 49 ( turning 50 in a few days ) and she only has little fine lines. I grew up watching her do her beauty rituals and I must say, it doesn't take much money to keep yourself healthy and glowing. However, it takes a lot of discipline to do so.<br />
<br />
Here are the stuff I've learned from her:<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>1.) Avoid the sun</b></span> - The first step to any good skin care routine is keeping it out of harm’s
way. Simply put, limit your skin’s exposure to the sun as much as
possible. All the UVA and UVB rays fry up the skin surface and cause collagen break down causing you dry skin and wrinkles. It's almost impossible to stay away from the sun because we're not vampires but it's best to avoid it from 8am-4pm where the sun is at it's hottest peak.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">For those who like to sun bathe, good luck!</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<b><span style="font-size: large;">2.) Sun block is a must have!</span></b> - So you think that an Spf 15 can already protect you? think again. If you are confused by how Spf works, let's not get into complex explanations and just think of it as this way, the number of Spf is the number of times it can protect you. Spf 15 can only offer 15x protection to your skin. Spf 30 can only offer 30x protection from the sun. Since we live in a very hot humid weather, it is wiser to use Spf 50 for those who go to school or work. For those who are always outdoors, Spf 100 is your best choice. Apply sunblock every 4 hours.<br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">3.) Moisturize</span></b> - All skin types need to moisturize, even the oily ones. However, you have to understand that skin types have different needs. You need moisturizers that fit your skin type. For dry skin, choose moisturizers that are creamy. For oily skin, gel-based moisturizers will fit you best since it is easily absorbed by the skin and does not grease your face. For acne-prone skin, there are a lot of moisturizers in the market that are created for sensitive skin. I researched on drug store products that are commonly found here in our country so you can get access to them if you are on the hunt for moisturizers.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;"> <b>4.) Exfoliate</b></span><b> - </b>Exfoliation helps promote cellular renewal by stimulating the
fibroblasts. Remember the things that produce collagen, elastin, and
GAG’s (providers of ‘snap back’ and hydration). Scrub 1-2x a week. If you are using a product that already contains Alpha, Beta and Polyhydroxy Acids which are simply applied and left on the skin, you should limit your exfoliation to once a week since these substances already peel off dead surface skin cells. You don't want to thin out your skin. Never ever use body scrubs on your face because these products are really aggressive for the delicate facial skin. Make sure you wear sunblock if you're going out after exfoliating the skin since the new skin layers are fresh and fragile.<br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">5.) Invest in a quality pair of sunnies</span></b> - Believe it or not, it is an everyday essential. The skin around your eyes are the thinnest amongst any part of your body. It means that it is very fragile and prone to wrinkling especially if you are under the sun and you squint a lot. The sun breaks down your collagen resulting to loss of skin's elasticity especially around the corners of your eyes. If you think that a random pair of sun glasses can already get you through, think again. The cheap ones that you can easily buy around the corner do not have UVA and UVB shields to protect your eyes. You will know if your sunnies are of good quality if you don't squint under the sun while wearing your sunnies. If you still do, better invest in a good pair!<br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">6.) Avoid makeup</span></b> - I hate to break it you ladies but makeup does a lot of harm than good in your skin. The chemicals used in cosmetics, some of them are good and most have bad effects. <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD8">Many people</span> use makeup on daily basis. An alarming amount of cosmetics can actually be absorbed into <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD12">the skin</span> or breathed into the lungs. Cosmetics are manufactured using different chemicals and some of these chemicals are linked to <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD5">health problems</span> and most common problems include cancer or other allergic problems. Parabens are chemical preservatives that have
been identified as estrogen and disruptive of normal hormone function.
It is the exposure to external estrogen's that have been shown to
increase the risk of breast cancer. Athletes have been known to cause a
broad range of birth defects and lifelong reproductive impairments. Be careful with the things you put on your face, especially eye shadows and eyeliners. Not only will they wrinkle your skin but they may cause harm to your vision.<br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">7.) Load up on Vitamins</span></b> - Antioxidants are known to prevent agents called free radicals from
damaging cells in the body and the skin. Free radicals are a result of
normal body processes, but they can also be created by exposure to
various environmental factors such as smoking or ultraviolet (UV)
radiation from the sun and can speed up the aging process.<br />
<br />
mineral <b>selenium</b> helps protect the body from cancers, including <a href="http://www.medicinenet.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=478">skin cancer</a>
caused by sun exposure. It also preserves tissue elasticity and slows
down the aging and hardening of tissues associated with oxidation.
Dietary sources of the mineral include whole grain cereals, seafood, <a href="http://www.medicinenet.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=45744">garlic</a>, and eggs. <br />
<br />
Experts consider <b>vitamin E</b> to be the most important antioxidant because
it protects cell membranes and prevents damages to enzymes associated
with them. Supplementation with vitamin E in 400 milligrams a day has been noted to reduce photodamage, wrinkles and improve skin texture. Natural sources of vitamin E include vegetable oils such as
sunflower oil, grains, oats, nuts, and dairy products.<br />
<br />
<b>Vitamin C</b> is the most common antioxidant found in the skin. It's also
found in vegetables and citrus fruits. Like vitamin E, vitamin C is
considered important in repairing free radicals and preventing them from
becoming cancerous or accelerating the aging process. <br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>8.) Eat right!</b></span> - You can never look glowing on the outside if you are not healthy on the inside, makes sense? Fruits and Vegetables are clinically proven anti-oxidants that get rid of free radicals from the body. Not only do they provide vitamins that nourish the cells, they also combat diseases by strengthening the immune system. I know not everyone likes to eat vegetables which is why it takes a lot of discipline to be able to get into the habit of doing so. If you have noticed, vegetarians not only live longer, but they have very healthy complexion. You don't need to become vegetarian to achieve healthy skin as long as you follow the right amount of serving of fruits and vegetables. <br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>9.) Exercise Regularly</b></span> - We already know that exercise keeps our muscles toned and our skin firm. So with that being said, if you don't want to look all flabby, saggy and weak, you should know that exercise is not an option but a choice. Not only will it stimulate your metabolism to work well but it also aids to get rid of toxins and stress. This is not only beneficial to your skin but it is also important for your health. Always think long term. If you are not fond of exercising, why don't you play a sport that you like? If you enjoy what you are doing, you wouldn't notice the feeling of getting tired!<br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">10.) Avoid the wrong crowd - </span></b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">This is what many people fail to take note of. All of the items above, 1-9 will all be useless if you don't have proper discipline. Tto be able to have discipline is to be able to get rid of negative influences around you. If you hangout with friends that smoke, drink and party, expect yourself to be at risk any time soon. Even if you don't smoke, second hand smoking not only contributes to Lung Cancer but it also throws toxins on your skin. Don't be surprised if you look more haggard than your friends. I am not saying that you leave your friends but it is important for you to consider your lifestyle. why don't you invite your friends instead so you can all get into the habit of living right? Be a support system!</span></span></span><br />

Okay. So those are only the things that you need to take note of. It may sound easy but hard to do. It takes a lot of discipline. Always remember, health is an investment. I'm sure you want to look fresh even in your late 40s. You don't have to worry about getting under the knife or getting injections. As long as you start early and get into the right phase, people will immediately notice a difference in your appearance. </div>

single clue. I didn't even know the movie was originated from a book.
Since a lot of people have been excited to watch it, I got curious
enough to try and watch it today. All I can say is that it's ABSOLUTELY
WORTH IT! Now I know why many people are raving about it. The story is
unique and action packed. It's not like any other sequel movies where
the end part always leaves you hanging. Hunger Games definitely
satisfied us today. A lot of girls seem to be excited to watch this
because of Liam Hemsworth from the Last Song movie. I don't find him
attractive in this movie at all. Sorry ladies! Alexander Ludwig, the
blood thirsty competitor, looked a lot cooler though. He reminded me of
Channing Tatum. Anyway, I'm not concerned about the boys. The scene
reminded me a lot of the forests here in the Philippines. Now I wonder,
if indeed this movie is brought to life, will our Filipino natives
stand a chance in the competition? That would be really interesting, don't you think? So
if you are into Action, Adventure and Sci-Fi movies, this will surely
entertain you! I'm looking forward to the next sequel! ^_^<br />

"Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the nation of
Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl
to compete in the Hunger Games. Part twisted entertainment, part
government intimidation tactic, the Hunger Games are a nationally
televised event in which “Tributes” must fight with one another until
one survivor remains. Pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have
prepared for these Games their entire lives, Katniss is forced to rely
upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former
victor Haymitch Abernathy. If she’s ever to return home to District 12,
Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival
against humanity and life against love." --<a data-mce-href="http://crazycritics.com/page/the-hunger-games-movie-character-posters" href="http://crazycritics.com/page/the-hunger-games-movie-character-posters" target="_blank" title="Crazycritics.com">http://crazycritics.com/page/the-hunger-games-movie-character-posters</a><br />

Oh. One thing I didn't like about it though wasn't about the
movie but the cinema. The place is crowded with so many loud teenagers.
What's ironic is that most of these kids are from my school. I thought I
was watching a horror movie because I hear viewers shout every now and
then. The couples at our back are already telling the story like it's
nobody's business. "O sige na teh, ikaw na ang nagbasa ng libro!" It was
so annoying! I just had to look back at them and give a stern face. A
cinema is like a library, you don't have to open your mouths. You just
have to watch. Eeeh. Oh well. That's what you get for watching on the
first screening.<br />
<br />
Nonetheless, the movie is great! I do recommend
to watch it after a week or two if you can't handle restless viewers.
For now, you just have to keep your ears shut from spoilers.

Okay, so before I start with my entry, I would just like to let you all know that these products are bought by yours truly and are in no way, sponsored or anything like that. LOL :) This is my first time to share this online. It's kind of difficult to share something without people judging you for being showy. I just want to share these stuff with you so I can express my thoughts about brushes and the like because I think they're very important in our vanity kit.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Let me introduce my first set of brushes, <b>The Nichido basic set.</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFubgtBAXJu2s8x6EfUCyRukrKhGV3lNUsqVSkA-pJC55_71vuUjRF2ADaSCIlyahP3BzlgViHoDEfbBBgz7cbQ1SdoArF9UpTWAYeC95vZXShVhM8un7-HqREnyYsPSYZaLz3ZZmqBLuR/s1600/DSC04520.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFubgtBAXJu2s8x6EfUCyRukrKhGV3lNUsqVSkA-pJC55_71vuUjRF2ADaSCIlyahP3BzlgViHoDEfbBBgz7cbQ1SdoArF9UpTWAYeC95vZXShVhM8un7-HqREnyYsPSYZaLz3ZZmqBLuR/s640/DSC04520.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I started collecting brushes when I was 19 years old. This was my very first basic brush set. This can be found at all Watsons drug stores. I bought mine at SM Cebu. This is very ideal for beginners in make up and those who don't want to spend so much for brushes. I forgot how much this set costs but I believe it was more or less 150php. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<u>What I love about it:</u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-It is made of goat's hair. Very soft and silky on skin</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-It has minimal shedding! I'm actually surprised for that price</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-It doesn't get easily dirty ( because it's animal hair, it doesn't collect as much dirt as synthetic ones )</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-You get the Blush/Powder brush, the Eye shadow brush, Brow brush w/ comb and the Lip brush</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<u>What I don't love about it:</u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- Split ends! Really? Yes, it's goat's hair</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-I literally have to condition it to avoid drying of ends</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-They become frizzy once they start to dry after washing</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-I just find the lip brush absurd. Goat's hair on your lips. Ehh.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
The Charm Travel Pro v2 set is intended for those make up enthusiasts who are always on the go. It is a blend of soft animal hair and synthetic hair to have that balance between volume and silkiness of the brush. I decided to get the travel set because it's easier to grab your brushes and fit them into a bag whenever you need them unlike those regular brushes with long handles. They are difficult to store and keep.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>The set includes:</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Dual Fibre Brush <br />
2. Powder Brush<br />
3. Angled Blush Brush<br />
4. Jumbo Concealer Brush<br />
5. Multi-purpose Eyeshadow and Blending Brush<br />
6. Pencil Point Brush<br />
7. Contour Eye/Nose Brush<br />
8. Flat Liner Brush<br />
9. Angled Liner Brush ( for eyebrows and eyeliner )<br />
10. Pointed Eyeliner Brush<br />
11. Brow Spoolie Brush<br />
12. Retractable Lip Brush</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<u>What I love about it:</u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-The compact bag surely does a great job at keeping the brushes in place</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-The clear cover keeps the brushes clean and dust free</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-Very sleek and you can always carry it around like a purse</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-VERY minimal or almost NO shedding! I just love it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-It doesn't dry out and it doesn't get split ends. lol</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-Sleek handles! Plus, they're pink!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-Every brush is useful. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<u>What I don't love about it:</u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-Since the brushes are still half synthetic, they're not as smooth and silky as animal hair</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-I honestly was disappointed by the jumbo concealer brush (in orange hair) It's quite stiff</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
-It is pricey. I saved up 1,800php just for this set.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The Charm Travel Pro v3 is a blend of soft animal hair and synthetic hair but the new edition promises to deliver softer and silkier feel. This time, you get 14 professional brushes. They have finally added the foundation brush for those who are fond of liquid foundations. They also have the dome brush which is perfect for blending eye makeup plus new brushes for precision. All these in one sassy black faux croc pouch with hot pink zippers. I bought this last year when I started to work. I feel like the whole concept matured just like me because of the added features and the chic color. I felt the urge to buy this so I would have something to switch with my previous brushes so they can take a rest and have their turn after the new brushes are cleaned. This is perfect for advanced makeup enthusiasts out there! </div>

The Charm Luxe Flat Top Brush is created with densely packed synthetic bristles that works great for packing in loose mineral foundation or even pressed powder for that build able and and very even coverage on the skin.I prefer applying loose mineral powder on a daily basis and I must say, this has become my best friend. Hehe. This product retails for 600php but I do guarantee you that it's worth every penny! :)<br />

The Charm Luxe retractable kabuki is made of synthetic, vegan hair. This promises to glide on to your skin like a velvet. This is great for girls who are on the go and those who prefer compact and loose powders. This is the highlight in my vanity kit and I use this for applying my <i>Revlon Photo Ready Finishing powder </i>during touch ups throughout the day. This baby gets a lot of compliments whenever my friends see it. Hahaha! They also have one in Gold. This product is sold for 580php.<br />

<u>What I love about it:</u><br />
-It does a great job with packing in loose powder and compact powder<br />
-Very very dense yet so so soft and smooth on skin <br />
-NO SHEDDING! :) I love it!<br />
-Very easy to clean and dries well. It doesn't frizz<br />
-It doesn't get easily dirty. You just shake it off and the excess powder comes off<br />
-It's well protected from dirt and dust because of it's retractable container<br />
<br />
<br />
<u>What I don't love about it:</u><br />
-None! I actually was
scared that it may be prone to scratches and the pink color may come off
because it's metal so I had to tape it to avoid those stuff. It still
looks cute though :)<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"> <span style="font-size: small;">So that's it for my <i>Charm brushes collection</i>. I know they are quite pricey but they are good investments for makeup enthusiasts like me. Overall, I would say that they are all worth the money I saved up for. If you are interested and wish to order as well, you may reach them through online. Just click <a href="http://beautyandminerals.multiply.com/">http://beautyandminerals.multiply.com</a> I also know someone who sells them here in our local city.

This set has three dual-ended brushes to help you complete your look.
This is definitely PERFECT for travel! Concealer Brush and Foundation Brush are both made of synthetic fiber. Apply foundation to the center of cheeks and forehead, blending
outward for better coverage. Do not apply to eyelids. Blender Brush
and Powder brush are made of all animal hair. Apply powder all over to reduce shine and set makeup. Blush Brush and Shadow Brush are made of animal hair.I got lucky. My set came with a bonus brush, the crease brush! I bought it from maam Ched's stall at <b>Robinson's Talisay Cebu </b>for 700php. I thought I didn't need another set of brushes but when I saw the set, I immediately fell in love. It has been traveling with me ever since!!!<br />

<u>What I love about it:</u><br />
-Definitely soft and smooth on the skin<br />
-NO SHEDDING!!!<br />
-Your best traveling buddy ever! <br />
-Very easy to clean and easy to dry. It doesn't frizz!<br />
-The set does a job well done in distributing the product on face evenly<br />
-I really love the bonus brush! It can be eye shadow and blending brush. You don't need a different one. This brush does all the tricks!<br />
<br />
<u>What I don't love about it:</u><br />
-I find that the Powder brush is smaller. I expected it to be big but it's smaller than the blush brush. It definitely needs a lot of work to get coverage on the average face<br />
-This set comes in a zipped pouch. I don't find it sanitary. I hope this came with a pouch just like the Charm Travel Pro<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">My tips in choosing your own brushes:</span><br />
-Consider first your enthusiasm in the art of makeup. If you just want some color on your face, just go for the basic set. <br />
-If you are a beginner in makeup and want to learn advanced techniques, I recommend that you watch tutorials first before you get to decide what are the tools you would need<br />
-For girls who already have the makeup skills and know what they would need, I truly recommend you to invest in good quality brushes that would really last<br />
-Consider your lifestyle. If you are always on the go and always traveling, go for brushes that are easy to carry. <br />
-Always ask the seller what kind of hair is used for the brushes.
Remember, animal hairs are more likely to fall off and split while
synthetic hairs tend to be stiff. Always test the brushes first or read
reviews about them on the net if you're getting a set online <br />
-TAKE YOUR TIME. No matter how cute they are. Think first whether or not you would need it<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Okay. That's it for my makeup brushes collection. I know they seem quite too much for a lady like me. I don't often wear makeup but they always make the makeup time extra fun! I feel like I am paint artist. HAHAHA! ^_^<br />
Comments are graciously returned. I hope you had fun reading this and I get to share some ideas in choosing the perfect brushes for you to fit your lifestyle!</div>JENNYhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00629634551436132077noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1944574109614899481.post-43595223828977795082012-03-14T09:41:00.000-07:002012-03-14T10:04:40.374-07:00Tips and Tricks for Hiding Your Body Flaws<br />
Wooh. I feel like I'm becoming such a girlaloo. It's quite unlikely of me back in college. LOL :P So I thought about getting back to Fashion blogging but since a lot of my fellow Zamboanga Bloggers are already established on that category, I might as well bring something to the table by doing another Tips and Tricks Article because I think that a lot of girls want to be fashionable too but they worry that their body types hinder them from expressing their inner fashion sense.<br />
<br />
Just because the trends are brought by skinny models doesn't mean you don't have the right to set your own trends. Remember, they are chosen because they fit the designer's sample size hand made clothing. What I thought of discussing here is about real bodies by real women. This is not about starving yourself to fit the category of model-ish girls but rather concealing your imperfections and enhancing your perfections. ^_^<br />
<br />
<b>Wide waist and/or Bulging stomach</b><br />
The most obvious thing to do here is to avoid fitted tops. I personally have wide waist and slim extremities. My best bet is to buy hip hugging pants or jeans and wear loose Tops like Tunics outside of pants.
This style conceals the waist. <b>Avoid short, thin in texture and soft colored tops which bare the mid torso, as they will
emphasize your fault. </b><br />
Important tip: Stick to your size and your body structure. Wearing something too small
and too tight will only accentuate the problem and wearing something
that is too large for you will only make it obvious that you’re trying
to hide something. Instead, stick to a happy medium: your true size!<br />

<br />
<b>Big breasts</b><br />
Most Asians with big breasts are either chubby or on the plus size category. I honestly think they shouldn't be covered but rather complemented. Tailored vest is your best friend. Not only will it make you chic but it also minimizes the attention to you breast. Opt for solid colors when it comes to pairing it with inner clothing. <b>Try wearing high cut blouses and accessorize it with a chunk necklace for that balance look.</b> Halters and V-necks may be worn too without drawing attention to the chest by wearing pastel and solid colors. Avoid plunging tops and chunky necklaces that attract the chest area.<br />

<br />
<b>Broad shoulders</b><br />
Usually, girls with broad shoulders have inverted Triangle body shape. Which means, you tend to look like a Hanger. I personally belong to this category. I wouldn't mind if my shoulders are emphasized, as long as I get to balance them with my hips by wearing A-line bottoms and layered skirts. <b>Give them a soft look with V-shaped necks and asymmetrical and embellished pieces.</b> Avoid shoulder pads and puffy sleeves, tubes and plain cardigans.<br />

<b>Heavy thighs</b><br />
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">A lot of girls with heavy thighs wear shorts and ultra fitted pants. These pieces really put everything out of proportion. Same is
the case with dresses. Wear skirts with soft
gathers and pleats. Avoid wearing high waist shorts, skirts and pants because they bring attention to your lower torso. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 17px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: normal;"><b>Choose
skirts and pants in a solid color, but wear tops that bring attention upward such as bright colors and prints.</b>
When you wear a modest black skirt with a loud, sexy, print shirt, no
one will even notice your legs.</span></span></span></div>

<b>Heavy hips</b><br />
Heavy hips usually mean Pear shape bodies. <b>The trick is to be able to balance your top and your bottom body.</b> Do not wear fitted blouses and short
fitted jackets. Layer the clothing on your top body by wearing long blouse or a banded top then cover with a cardigan.Gently flared hips or wrapped styles conceal large hips. Stay away
from shorts and go in for knee length or above the knee culottes with
slight flares. The length of the garment is very important for large
hips so avoid short skirts and opt for slightly above the knee or knee length cut.<br />

<b>Big and/or Flabby Arms</b><br />
For girls with big arms, wearing sleeveless tops may be really impossible. For those who really insist, they tend to look like boxers and that creates an imbalance to the whole proportion of the body. My mom is from the plus size type so I learned a lot of tricks from her. I learned that Tops with full sleeves are not boring at all. Try lace sleeves or kimono cover ups for the young vibe. Sleeves that flow freely look gorgeous and appropriate. Cropped tops bring attention to the trunk instead of the arms while asymmetrical pieces bring attention to the shoulders. <b>Avoid the dark cardigans and shawls, they make it obvious that you are hiding something.</b><br />

<b> Chicken Legs</b><br />
The main issue with girls with skinny legs is the gap between their thighs. They tend to be teased with having an elephant crossed their crotch. It can also be disturbing when wearing fitted bottoms and swim suits. So the best way to make chicken legs look healthy and sexy is by wearing bottoms with looser fittings when paired with shorter tops. For those who want to wear fitted pants or leggings, wear longer tops and tunics to cover the crotch. <b>Colorful and printed knee length skirts give the illusion of fuller thighs. Go for pants with loud colors and wild prints.</b> Flare pants and Palazzo bottoms <b> </b>are so IN this season and they compliment skinny legs better than average ones.<br />

<blockquote>
<div align="center">
<i>When you stop chasing the wrong things you give<br />
the right things a chance to catch you.<br />
</i></div>
</blockquote>
As Maria Robinson once said, “Nobody can go back and start a new
beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.” Nothing
could be closer to the truth. But before you can begin this process of transformation you have to stop doing the things that have been holding
you back.<br />
<br />
Here are some ideas to get you started:<br />
<ol>
<li><b>Stop spending time with the wrong people.</b> – Life is
too short to spend time with people who suck the happiness out of you.
If someone wants you in their life, they’ll make room for you. You
shouldn’t have to fight for a spot. Never, ever insist yourself to
someone who continuously overlooks your worth. And remember, it’s not
the people that stand by your side when you’re at your best, but the
ones who stand beside you when you’re at your worst that are your true
friends. </li>
<li><b>Stop running from your problems.</b> – Face them head
on. No, it won’t be easy. There is no person in the world capable of
flawlessly handling every punch thrown at them. We aren’t supposed to
be able to instantly solve problems. That’s not how we’re made. In
fact, we’re made to get upset, sad, hurt, stumble and fall. Because
that’s the whole purpose of living – to face problems, learn, adapt, and
solve them over the course of time. This is what ultimately molds us
into the person we become.</li>
<li><b>Stop lying to yourself.</b> – You can lie to anyone
else in the world, but you can’t lie to yourself. Our lives improve
only when we take chances, and the first and most difficult chance we
can take is to be honest with ourselves. <i>Read <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0743243153/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=marandang-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0743243153">The Road Less Traveled</a><img border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=marandang-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0743243153" style="border: medium none ! important; margin: 0px ! important;" width="1" />.</i></li>
<li><b>Stop putting your own needs on the back burner.</b> –
The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving
someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too. Yes, help
others; but help yourself too. If there was ever a moment to follow
your passion and do something that matters to you, that moment is now.</li>
<li><b>Stop trying to be someone you’re not.</b> – One of the greatest challenges in life is being yourself in a world that’s trying to make you like<span id="more-402"></span>
everyone else. Someone will always be prettier, someone will always be
smarter, someone will always be younger, but they will never be you.
Don’t change so people will like you. Be yourself and the right people
will love the real you.</li>
<li><b>Stop trying to hold onto the past.</b> – You can’t start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading your last one.</li>
<li><b>Stop being scared to make a mistake.</b> – Doing
something and getting it wrong is at least ten times more productive
than doing nothing. Every success has a trail of failures behind it,
and every failure is leading towards success. You end up regretting the
things you did NOT do far more than the things you did.</li>
<li><b>Stop berating yourself for old mistakes.</b> – We may
love the wrong person and cry about the wrong things, but no matter how
things go wrong, one thing is for sure, mistakes help us find the person
and things that are right for us. We all make mistakes, have
struggles, and even regret things in our past. But you are not your
mistakes, you are not your struggles, and you are here NOW with the
power to shape your day and your future. Every single thing that has
ever happened in your life is preparing you for a moment that is yet to
come.</li>
<li><b>Stop trying to buy happiness.</b> – Many of the things
we desire are expensive. But the truth is, the things that really
satisfy us are totally free – love, laughter and working on our
passions.</li>
<li><b>Stop exclusively looking to others for happiness.</b> –
If you’re not happy with who you are on the inside, you won’t be happy
in a long-term relationship with anyone else either. You have to create
stability in your own life first before you can share it with someone
else. <i>Read <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1400077427/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=marandang-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=1400077427">Stumbling on Happiness</a><img border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=marandang-20&l=as2&o=1&a=1400077427" style="border: medium none ! important; margin: 0px ! important;" width="1" />.</i></li>
<li><b>Stop being idle.</b> – Don’t think too much or you’ll
create a problem that wasn’t even there in the first place. Evaluate
situations and take decisive action. You cannot change what you refuse
to confront. Making progress involves risk. Period! You can’t make it
to second base with your foot on first.</li>
<li><b>Stop thinking you’re not ready.</b> – Nobody ever feels
100% ready when an opportunity arises. Because most great
opportunities in life force us to grow beyond our comfort zones, which
means we won’t feel totally comfortable at first.</li>
<li><b>Stop getting involved in relationships for the wrong reasons.</b>
– Relationships must be chosen wisely. It’s better to be alone than to
be in bad company. There’s no need to rush. If something is meant to
be, it will happen – in the right time, with the right person, and for
the best reason. Fall in love when you’re ready, not when you’re lonely.</li>
<li><b>Stop rejecting new relationships just because old ones didn’t work.</b>
– In life you’ll realize that there is a purpose for everyone you
meet. Some will test you, some will use you and some will teach you.
But most importantly, some will bring out the best in you.</li>
<li><b>Stop trying to compete against everyone else.</b> –
Don’t worry about what others are doing better than you. Concentrate on
beating your own records every day. Success is a battle between YOU
and YOURSELF only.</li>
<li><b>Stop being jealous of others.</b> – Jealousy is the art
of counting someone else’s blessings instead of your own. Ask yourself
this: “What’s something I have that everyone wants?”</li>
<li><b>Stop complaining and feeling sorry for yourself.</b> –
Life’s curveballs are thrown for a reason – to shift your path in a
direction that is meant for you. You may not see or understand
everything the moment it happens, and it may be tough. But reflect back
on those negative curveballs thrown at you in the past. You’ll often
see that eventually they led you to a better place, person, state of
mind, or situation. So smile! Let everyone know that today you are a
lot stronger than you were yesterday, and you will be.</li>
<li><b>Stop holding grudges.</b> – Don’t live your life with
hate in your heart. You will end up hurting yourself more than the
people you hate. Forgiveness is not saying, “What you did to me is
okay.” It is saying, “I’m not going to let what you did to me ruin my
happiness forever.” Forgiveness is the answer… let go, find peace,
liberate yourself! And remember, forgiveness is not just for other
people, it’s for you too. If you must, forgive yourself, move on and
try to do better next time.</li>
<li><b>Stop letting others bring you down to their level.</b> – Refuse to lower your standards to accommodate those who refuse to raise theirs.</li>
<li><b>Stop wasting time explaining yourself to others.</b> – Your friends don’t need it and your enemies won’t believe it anyway. Just do what you know in your heart is right.</li>
<li><b>Stop doing the same things over and over without taking a break.</b>
– The time to take a deep breath is when you don’t have time for it.
If you keep doing what you’re doing, you’ll keep getting what you’re
getting. Sometimes you need to distance yourself to see things clearly.</li>
<li><b>Stop overlooking the beauty of small moments.</b> –
Enjoy the little things, because one day you may look back and discover
they were the big things. The best portion of your life will be the
small, nameless moments you spend smiling with someone who matters to
you.</li>
<li><b>Stop trying to make things perfect.</b> – The real world doesn’t reward perfectionists, it rewards people who get things done. <i>Read <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0142000280/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=marandang-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0142000280">Getting Things Done</a><img border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=marandang-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0142000280" style="border: medium none ! important; margin: 0px ! important;" width="1" />.</i></li>
<li><b>Stop following the path of least resistance.</b> – Life
is not easy, especially when you plan on achieving something
worthwhile. Don’t take the easy way out. Do something extraordinary.</li>
<li><b>Stop acting like everything is fine if it isn’t.</b> –
It’s okay to fall apart for a little while. You don’t always have to
pretend to be strong, and there is no need to constantly prove that
everything is going well. You shouldn’t be concerned with what other
people are thinking either – cry if you need to – it’s healthy to shed
your tears. The sooner you do, the sooner you will be able to smile
again.</li>
<li><b>Stop blaming others for your troubles.</b> – The extent
to which you can achieve your dreams depends on the extent to which you
take responsibility for your life. When you blame others for what
you’re going through, you deny responsibility – you give others power
over that part of your life.</li>
<li><b>Stop trying to be everything to everyone.</b> – Doing
so is impossible, and trying will only burn you out. But making one
person smile CAN change the world. Maybe not the whole world, but their
world. So narrow your focus.</li>
<li><b>Stop worrying so much.</b> – Worry will not strip
tomorrow of its burdens, it will strip today of its joy. One way to
check if something is worth mulling over is to ask yourself this
question: “Will this matter in one year’s time? Three years? Five
years?” If not, then it’s not worth worrying about.</li>
<li><b>Stop focusing on what you don’t want to happen.</b> –
Focus on what you do want to happen. Positive thinking is at the
forefront of every great success story. If you awake every morning with
the thought that something wonderful will happen in your life today,
and you pay close attention, you’ll often find that you’re right.</li>
<li><b>Stop being ungrateful.</b> – No matter how good or bad
you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere
else is desperately fighting for theirs. Instead of thinking about
what you’re missing, try thinking about what you have that everyone else
is missing.</li>

I don't know, things just got better from there. LOL :P Well, after I recovered from my sickness, I have decided to take care of myself more and get back to the healthy lifestyle. I stopped working since I got back here in Zamboanga because my mom doesn't really need an extra hand at the office. I figured that I might as well use my free time to focus on my health and relationship while I prepare for the upcoming entrance exam for Medical School.<br />
<br />
The first thing I did when I got back from Cebu was to see Peter and Fuzzy. We went to attend the mass and then we brought Fuzzy to his Vet for his second anti-rabies shot. The day after this was the day I got really sick. <br />

Within the span of two weeks, I have had Diarrhea and Emesis. It was bad. I didn't even get to attend one of my close friend's wedding! Huhu. On top of that, my friends were so annoying, kept on texting me to come with them to the wedding, like my sickness can heal in a day or two. Geez.<br />

When I finally recovered, we went to this Firing session with Peter Paul's family at Pasonanca. It was my first time to fire a gun. I almost hit the bull's eye. Oh yeah! The recoil was quite hard, it hurt my hands. Haha! One thing I have learned is that a gun is too powerful. With just a trigger, you can steal someone's life. I don't want to mess with it.<br />

Finally, the December NLE results came out. We were so anxious for a long time. The agony was finally over! I have to admit, it was quite a bittersweet moment for me. I am happy that some of my friends finally passed the exam but at the same time, I feel sorry for those who didn't make it. Still, life goes on. Every experience has a lesson to offer.<br />

Ahh! The day we've been waiting for! February 19, 2012. Our second anniversary together as a couple. You know, if there's one thing I've learned about this relationship, it's that Love is never selfish. You have to learn to let go of other important things to save something special. You always have to go out of your comfort zone to make it work. The more you make an effort, the bigger you invest your emotions into it. I honestly am not that kind of person but when you find the right person, you'll see. It's worth taking the risk. When Peter and I first started, we thought things might get boring for us because both of us came from long term relationships. We thought we would be like, "Been there, done that." We were wrong. Everyday is something new for us. The experience may be the same from the past but the feelings are definitely different. We've both grown up and matured. I could truly say, I don't see my future with anyone else but with him. Yes, I have become cheesy now. Don't mind me. I like the way I am. Haha!<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">I painted my nails bright Red for that festive and romantic vibe. For some reason, I don't want anyone to do my nails. It freaks me out. Whenever I had to come to the salon with my mom, I always tell the lady to just trim my nails and not to give me a manicure or remove my cuticles. I noticed that for many girls, their nail beds have become thinner. That thought already gives me different scary ideas. @_@</td></tr>

So for the month of February, I've been pretty much laid back. Most of my days consist of reading and watching television while most of my evenings consist of jogging with mom and playing badminton with Peter at Pasonanca park. Mom and Peter have been playing against each other too! They look so funny, I couldn't stop watching while laughing! I also dyed my hair back to Black just a while ago because I feel like I look Samal-ish with my over grown roots! I like it now. I look more pale and I seem like I am wearing a wig though. LOL I have to start learning how to pull this off. I wish this laptop can stop being retarded so I can start uploading photos from my cellphone. It can't read the Apple's USB connection! Dammit! Huhu.<br />
<br />
Goodbye, February! You have been Oh so Sweet to me despite the mishaps I've been through. I am definitely looking forward to my birthday month, March! Sharmila is coming over for a visit. Peter is finally graduating soon! Not to mention, the entrance test for Med school is also coming up. With God's grace, I pray that everything will turn out to be okay. <br />
<br />
I hope your February went well! :D God bless! Say hello to MARCH! ^_^<br />

complexion and killer bone structure looking soft and sweet with a hint
of peachy blush on the apples of your cheeks.
<br />
<ul>
<li>Fill in brows with a shade that’s a little lighter than your hair color to look polished, but not severe.</li>
<li>Sweep cool brown shadow on your lids to give your eyes a subtle
smolder. A touch of highlighter in the inner corners brightens them up.</li>

-Girls who threat and wish to kill if only it's not a crime then cave in and run to their friends and family to back them up when they are attacked.<br />
-Fake nose. Fake eyelashes. Fake boobs. Fake hair. Fake nails. You can't expect to find a real man with that.<br />
<br />
8.)5 things you love about your special someone<br />
-Peter, hands down, is the most thoughtful guy I have ever met :)<br />
-He makes me feel like a queen and he believes in my capabilities.<br />
-He is very close to my parents. My mom already treats him as her son.<br />
-I am proud to say he has a wonderful and respected family. They really raised him well.<br />
-He is more matured than what others think about him. He knows what he's doing.<br />
<br />
9.)5 things you want to change about that person<br />
-I honestly don't want to change anything about him. I have loved him for who is and who he is not. He's not perfect. In fact, he has a lot of flaws. There are times that I have given up on him but he never gives up on me in spite of my irrational behavior and change of heart. He's already too good for any girl. I wouldn't want to change anything about him. Otherwise, he wouldn't be the person I fell in love with.<br />
<br />
10.)5 things you want for your birthday<br />
-My complete family. Mom, Dad and Peter<br />
-My true friends<br />
-A day at the church<br />
-I am not looking forward to another party this year. A dinner with my family is more than enough.<br />
-I find that it's too much to ask for and I'm not expecting but hopefully getting a DSLR camera would be possible this year.<br />
<br />
11.)5 things you have accomplished<br />
-I have finally learned how to drive and received my own car <br />
-I am a college graduate<br />
-I reached my dream of becoming a Registered Nurse<br />
-I got to travel to my favorite place, Hong Kong<br />
-I gained experience about our family business<br />
<br />
12.)5 things you want to accomplish<br />
-Buy a DSLR camera<br />
-Travel to Singapore with my parents<br />
-Enroll in Med School and earn good grades<br />
-Become a physician and specialize on Geriatrics and Gerontology ( I know I'm quite ambitious. lol )<br />
-Organize a big Medical Mission for the people in Leyte and other rural areas<br />
<br />
13.)5 things you regret and be honest<br />
-Dating while I was still in High School. I should have allowed myself to grow first<br />
-I regret trusting Carmel and Christine. Period.<br />
-I regret that I lived up to someone's standards when I can be truly loved for who I really am.<br />
-I regret running away from my problems and my obligations.<br />
-I regret the irrational behavior and for giving up many times on the only person that can put up with my shit.<br />
<br />
14.)5 things you have learned from your past<br />
-You can't change things no matter how much you cry about it, you can only move forward and start fresh<br />
-You are only young once, so better not waste your time on nonsense things<br />
-People come and go. Expect that to happen today and tomorrow.<br />
-You thought you can never love the way you used to but wait till you find the right person. You'd be surprised with yourself.<br />
-I was weaker than I thought but I have become stronger than I was. That's all that matters.<br />
<br />

During the Ateneo Fiesta, Czar accompanied me to this famous local thrift store for accessories here in Zamboanga City to look for some good chunks. I found a lot of nice accessories but I wasn't really happy with their brassy colors. I only bought one butterfly necklace while Czar ended up buying 3 pieces. LOL :P<br />
<br />
There are so many accessories out there but they are quite discouraging to me because they look quite dirty. So one day, I decided to just work with them than spend too much moolah on Forever 21 accessories when they almost look the same as the ones you buy in a thrift store.<br />

<br />
In case you're wondering how much the can of spray costs, I bought it for only 80php from the hardware store. I also bought a clear spray which costs the same as the Gold one for that embossed finish. If you have the time, maybe you can try this out and put a spin to your typical accessories. Try silver tones for a change. I hope this was helpful. ^_^ Byers!JENNYhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00629634551436132077noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1944574109614899481.post-90333653811657982322012-01-11T07:36:00.000-08:002012-01-11T07:39:20.707-08:00Best Make Up for Every Hair ColorI don't know about you guys but I find it essential to make sure that my make up look matches my skin and hair color because certain hair colors tend to look unnatural and wash out the features of the face. I don't want to look overly done when I apply color to my face, I want to look naturally glowing and I'm sure you too, would want to look the same. @.@<br />
<br />
FACT:<br />
Not all makeup colors and shades look good on you, that’s because the
colors do not automatically match your skin tone as well as your hair
color. These pro makeup tips will ensure that you look your very best
every single time. Color Rules! that simple.<br />

For those with Dark Hair, Sheer mauve gloss looks
gorgeous with peach blush and balances ruddiness in fair skin while
Blue-based magenta and wine shades with subtle sparkle combat the shy
undertones of darker complexions.Play with your eyes by applying a cool
tone to your lids to get a pretty doe-eyed effect that’s not too “done”
if you have light skin and Plums can appear gray against tan skin, so
opt for shadows with pinkish undertones.<br />

Brunettes know that it’s simple for their complexions
to get lost and washed out due to the fact dark hair will cause more
contrast with their skin. Brunet absorbs a much more light and so
your skin might not get the chance to shine itself. To fix this problem,
pick light-reflecting peaches and corals to brighten up your skin as
well as give it a soft, warm, glow.”Darker hair works with brighter
makeup and still look fresh. An orange lip is unexpected and brings out
chocolate-brunette tones.” Don’t shy away with bright colors.</div>

<b>Blonde</b></div>
<div align="justify">
If you’re a blondie, you realize that it can be
challenging to wear bright or dramatic colors. Anything bold seems that
much harsher on a blonde and that’s why it’s important to work with what
you have. Combine soft, muted colors into your makeup bag such as pale
pinks, nudes, and burgundy’s. Avoid going overboard as you’ll just end
up looking overdone. If you’re looking for an extra kick, line your
upper lids with a sparkly black liner. Substituting blush with bronzer
ensures that your skin won’t look washed out. Tips for your eye makeup,
draw attention to your eyes with dark- and neutral-toned shadows and
liners.</div>

<b>Red Hai</b>r</div>
<div align="justify">
<i>Redheads</i> have a hard time picking out their
colors simply because of the harsh contrast between their pale skin tone
and the fiery red hair. The same can go for those with dyed red hair
too. The undertones in the hair and cosmetic colors absolutely need to
match. Obviously the lighter you are, the softer the colors should be.
If you have auburn highlights you should probably get rid of cool shades
and go for warmer tones such as tawny, champagne and even gray.A splash
of purple or lime green does a redhead good. Copper tresses require a more natural
color palette – play up eyes with little shimmer. With your <i>lips</i>, Choosing a nude lip doesn’t mean you may skip the liner. Always keep your lip shape strong.</div>

<br />
<b>My Faith </b>- I finally had the courage to let go. It was a very difficult decision
to make but you can never expect that every result comes with
happiness. I may not be happy today but I'm sure tomorrow will be a better
day. I feel lighter and I know I can finally move forward. I open up and keep the good relationship with the Lord. This has brought me closer to him and closer to my family. I always put in mind that I am not alone in doing the things I need to do.<br />
<br />
1. Let go of the things that hold you back from moving forward<br />
2. Make the right decisions in life<br />
3. Stick to your choices<br />
4. Maintain the good relationship with God<br />
5. Keep the communication open with your parents<br />
<br />
<b>My Health</b> - There is always this constant struggle between living healthy and eating whatever. I have a working mom and I know it can be tiring for her to cook when she comes home from her office. We always dine out and it can be unhealthy. Because of that, we lack exercise. I am also big on sweets, my mom always threatens me with the risk Diabetes! :( So instead of waiting what's on the table, I should just learn how to cook more complex meals that would make us stay away from unhealthy food.<br />
<br />
6. Avoid Fast food at all costs<br />
7. Learn to cook more home-cooked meals<br />
8. Exercise often to stay fit and healthy<br />
9. Be more skin and hair care conscious<br />
10. Control your intake of chocolates<br />
<br />
<b>My Relationship with People</b> - I have a very bad temper and I tend to abandon people at times. The only thing that keeps my temper at bay is my very long Patience. Whew! I have to learn to keep stretching it so I don't hurt the people around me. I also prefer to be alone most of the time because I enjoy my privacy than my friends and loved ones but I don't realize the things that I have been missing out a lot. I am actually making a good progress on this and hopefully this will continue.<br />
<br />
11. Keep your temper low<br />
12. Stop leaving people behind<br />
13. Be more wary of the things you say<br />
14. Stay professional<br />
15. Spend more time with friends and family<br />
<br />
<b>My Growth and Maturity </b>- I am going to enroll in Med School this coming June. It has always been my dream to become a doctor. I know it's not easy, it might actually be the worse mental torture that will happen to me yet. However, I know my passion will get me through and I have to prepare well. Therefore, I need to discipline my happy-go-lucky self to work harder and stop doubting my capabilities. I promised myself that I will make a difference one day.<br />
<br />
16. Stop being late<br />
17. Read more, learn more<br />
18. Don't doubt your abilities<br />
19. Keep yourself focused<br />
20. Never give up on your dreams<br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">Sometime before the Christmas break, our best friend, Diane Cabading, <b>Czar Agbayani of <a href="http://xake11.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Mixed Culture</a></b>, <b>Christine Mae Ablao of Classy Rugged Chick</b> and yours truly, have decided to do another photo shoot. It has been a while since we did one. We thought of doing it for our blog. If I were to share my two cents on Fashion, I want it to be wearable and effortless. I mean, what's the point in sharing our sense in it when you can't really wear them on normal days, right? *Peace! Since I don't do pure fashion, I have decided to share sensible thoughts about mixing and matching certain outfits rather than just do a plain photo shoot. I thought it would be tiring to see my face in the same outfit over and over again. LOL</span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-size: small;">:D</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">We just had so many ideas in our minds but if I were to
share them all in one photo shoot, it would require me to bring a bundle of
clothing and accessories which I find very inconvenient to do since we only have
limited time and we didn’t have a dressing room. We even had to hide around the
bushes to change clothes and it was very uncomfortable! It was a good thing
Diane brought her big scarf to cover us up. What a dragging day. We were very
hungry after the shoot. Haha!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">So there you go girls, just keep in mind that
being fashionable enough doesn’t require you to pile on different clothes. Sometimes,
it’s all about the technique of mixing and matching them while most of the time,
it’s just all about how you carry yourself with confidence. Byers! :D</span></div>

My Mom was really craving for Lamb Chops. LOL :) Now she's feeling guilty for eating too much while Dad fell asleep like a bloated piggy. I, on the other hand, am trying to drink more than enough of water so my belly will go smooth by tomorrow. Hahahaha! It was a fun evening. We talked about many things and I shared some stories of my nightmares. Dad helped me face my anxiety. We laughed all evening. Tonight was definitely one of those family bondings we have.

<br />
My whole life, I've been raised alone. I have step brothers and sister and I love them but we're not on the same age bracket and they live far away. I always have everything to myself. People may think I'm one lucky brat. Believe me, too much of a good thing is bad. With that being said, I honestly do not know how it feels having a
sibling. I had experienced a part of it but not entirely. I don't know
how to act when I am with my sibling. I don't know what and how to
share. I never experienced the Sibling Rivalry. I honestly want to, though it's too late.<br />
<br />
It saddens me at times. You can never have it all. I have so many friends that I can turn to and treat like siblings but when I come home, I'm in my room alone. I don't have anyone to fight with over a little matter. I have my privacy and it feels quiet at home. Sometimes, it's too quiet that it could almost make me deaf. I am not complaining about my life. I take everything as it is. I have learned a lot from my life and I am proud to say, I am no brat. LOL :) I'm very thankful and blessed. I always do my best to bring joy to my parents which is why I am a loud and goofy person. I am their sunshine! ^_^<br />

<br />
So my wish for this Christmas is not about material things and money. I wish that my siblings and I will be able to come together and bond with each other. For 21 years, I have spent my Christmas with only my parents. I want to get with a large family and share our blessings. I want to see my nieces and nephews. I want to know what it feels like being an Aunt. I want to see my dad play with his grand children. I want to chat up with my siblings and relatives till the break of dawn. I just want one less person alone this Christmas. I have this idea for quite a while now and it may sound difficult but hopefully my plan works.<br />

Peter and I have already developed the habit of completing the Nine Mornings for Christmas. This is our second season to do so. It feels heart warming when you see many people especially young children attending the mass at 4am. It's quite an effort but then we all have our reasons why we want to complete the novena.<br />
<br />
During the mass, we noticed that while this priest was discussing the homily, an elderly priest was assisted by the servants to stand beside the celebrant to continue the homily. As soon as he started to speak, I immediately noticed he had stroke because of his motor movements and his slurred speech. My heart melted and I was in awe. I appreciated that he continued to serve despite his condition.<br />
<br />
After the celebration of the mass at the cathedral, Peter encouraged me to go to the elderly priest and ask for his hand to bless us. I hesitated for a moment because I believed that was only applicable to young children but at the back of my head, I thought to myself, we're only young once. So we went up there with those people who have also intended to pay respect to the elderly priest. When he placed his hand on my forehead, I felt like I was a young child again and I felt humbled. There's something about elderly people that always makes me emotional. It could be just because I have never experienced being close to any of my grand parents. <br />

So after the mass, Peter and I decided to go up hill to have a little nature trip since it was still a cold morning. We reached this place where we can see most of the city including the sea. It was really cold up there and the sun's rays just hit us as if it were giving us a subtle warm embrace. Right then ans there, I finally came to a realization that a sunrise is the best moment to watch rather than sunset. It gives you a sense of a new beginning and a sense of freedom. A lot of people nowadays just do not appreciate moments like that anymore. They would rather appreciate it when they are given Christmas bonuses. They would rather choose shopping over reflecting. They would rather look forward to having their christmas materialistic wishlist completed rather than look forward to spending time with their families. It disappoints me to find that a lot of people I know have that kind of mentality but we all have our different perspectives and I will never ask anyone to agree with me on this. We always go for whatever makes us happy.<br />

Last night, I found this cool application from the Apple store. Photoshake is intended for different styles of photo. You can choose single, multiple and even make a photo collage that you can customize in fun ways. This is ideal for bloggers out there who are always on the go. When you stumble into something interesting to share, just grab your phone and take photos. Shake your phone to produce random photo arrangements then you can start playing with different filters. Enjoy! :)<br />

<b><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></b><span style="font-size: small;">We all know that finding the perfect sun glasses is like finding the perfect pair of jeans. It can be very tricky and at times, it can be quite tiring. We can't just splurge on different sun glasses if they don't look good on us. We have to find a pair that's both comfortable and appropriate for our face shape.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Before we begin, </span>we should consider three main points when choosing frames for your face shape, according to The Vision Council:
</div>
<ol>
<li>Eye wear should repeat your personal best feature (such as a blue frame to match blue eyes).</li>
<li>The frame shape should contrast with your face shape.</li>
<li>The frame size should be in scale with your face size.</li>
</ol>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Also, while most faces are a combination of shapes and angles, there are eight basic face shapes: round, oval, oblong, heart, base-down triangle,
base-up triangle, diamond and square.</span></span> <br />
