we will start fasting

To commemorate the Holy week, I agreed to my partner that we will start fasting. It is scary since I haven’t tried going on a fasting, not once in my life. Yesterday is the first day. I thought I will be able to make it. However, as time hits twelve, I could not control my hungry pangs. I did not eat my regular meal, but I am munching anything I see on the fridge. It’s sad since we only have little stuff in fridge. But as of three in the afternoon, I am starting to feel that I am going to pass out. I did not tell hubby about it. Instead, I tell him that I am very sleepy. Well, I regained my strength after I eat three cups of rice during dinner time. I am that hungry since I can only finish one cup every meal.

making our relationship spicy

I always make it to a point to help my partner feel special and cared for even until six years of being together. I give him surprise gifts, thank you notes, dates, playing together, giving over chores, and give him partner time for himself. Of course, I know my partner have eyes to look at other beautiful girls. So, he has a tendency to flirt with sexy and pretty girls. That is the very reason, I take care of myself, to look good not just for him, but for me as well. Exercising to stay fit is one of my strategies. Loving myself first will enable me to love him back more. No matter how long we will be together, I want to continue what we used to have during our first years. So, there is nothing wrong to give extra effort to make our relationship as spicy as before.

love shopping indeed

I just can’t get my eyes off the sale I found on the web. Thanks to my lovely sister-in-law who helped opened the door to online shopping. I never like shopping online. But since she gave me assurance of her purchases, I am beginning to feel the urge of shopping.

It all started when I appreciate the beauty of her ring. I thought she is always wearing expensive one. To my surprise she gave me a site where I can purchase affordable fashion jewelries. Well, then I have to check it and gave it a try. Before I could finish the transaction I found discount jewelry offer. Goodness! I love the designs. And, the craftsmanship is so good. Good thing it’s on a discount so I add it on my cart.

some random thoughts

When it comes to elegance and luxury, we can automatically incorporate Rolex watch as the leading one. It is considered a status symbol as each piece is quite expensive. It is mostly worn by the rich and famous individuals. However, an ordinary person can still own a Rolex watch. Like my friend for instance, she was able to buy this kind of watch by choosing a preowned Rolex, half the price yet authentic. It took her time to save but like she said it’s worth the wait and money.

Tips to stay fresh

  • WASH and dry your hands thoroughly before putting your fingers into a product.
  • AVOID reinfection. Stop using all eye makeup if you have an eye infection and lip products if you have a cold sore. The exceptions: lipsticks, lipliners, and eye pencils, which can be shaved with a knife or sharpener. (Just cleaning with a tissue won’t suffice.)
  • SMELL your mascara when you first purchase it. If you recognize that scent, you’ll know when it goes bad: Expired mascara often takes on a funny, chemical odor.
  • CHOOSE a cotton-tipped swab or disposable sponge to apply makeup to a pimple – and avoid double dipping. Going back and forth the product to the affected area with your finger or a sponge can lead to contamination.
  • TRY writing the date of purchase on small cut up masking tape or colorful stick-on price tags to place on the bottles or tubs of your cosmetics to help you remember when you bought those products.
  • BUY in small quantities. This way, you are sure to use them until their last. Opt to palettes when choosing shadow instead of getting full posts that you won’t be able to finish (unless used every day).

never give up

Many women are dreaming of becoming gorgeous and sexy. It will give them the confidence to wear sexy bikinis on the beach. However, losing weight is not as easy as gaining. It is a very difficult process that requires time and patience. I can say that because I have been doing so many things to reduce weight, yet I keep on failing.

I know there are several reasons why I fail. Some recommends it is time to look at myself and examine the things that went wrong. Success will never be easy, but the formula is to never give up. This should be my motto from this point of time. I just hope I will achieve my goal in the long run.

gift for my friend

Ever since, I am interested in doing meditation. I have been reading several good results from doing such. One of my friends can prove its relaxation effect to the human mind and body. For almost a year, she is inviting me to join her in her meditation session even though I am miles and miles away.

I made a promise to myself that when I return, I will give her a Himalayan singing bowl. I want it unique and handpicked by the seller from the Nepal or Tibet. There are several unique pieces which are very interesting. But the piece that really struck me most is the crystal bowl. As my reading continue, I learned that this unique bowls create amazing sound that is perfect for meditation and healing with pure fused Quartz Crystal. I have two options whether to get the clear or frosted style. I think I'll get the frosted one because I like it better. My friend will surely give me a big grin once she sees it.
