Rapunzel

          I have a long hair, and it’s only now that I have come to realize that my hair is REALLY long. But lately I have been having problems on hair fall. I am a bit worried that I my hair might get limp and lifeless. The length of my hair is just above my waist and I had my hair rebonded twice but the last rebond treatment I had was last December. After that I never had any treatment because the hairdresser told me to let my hair rest for about six months, and it was also my personal preference not to avail any hair treatments because of busy schedules.

              I don’t know if my hair fall is due to hair products I use or due to recent stress I have been experiencing. I am using Head snd Shoulders: Anti-Hairfall and Sunsilk: Weather Defense as shampoo and Creamsilk(violet) and Sunsilk: Weather Defense(conditioner) as my conditioner. Other than that I don’t use other hair products for the fear of having dandruff. I have Google-d beauty blogs and forums to help me in my search for the right product for my hair but I guess it’s only me who’ll find out the best hair product for me. Recently I bought Palmolive: Silky Straight(shampoo and conditioner in one), I’m trying it later and I guess I’ll see if it suits me. I don’t usually stick to one product, I change every 3 weeks so my hair won’t get used to the product and still look like how it was when I first used the product, especially if it gave me really good results.

Which is which.

          Recently I have read a discussion, which looked like a debate too, on beliefs. They were arguing whether to believe on the existence of God or not. Personally, I don't think religion is a good topic for everyone, all of us are created uniquely and I think beliefs are just like fingerprints. Even though we have the same religion I think our beliefs are still different from each other. One might believe that God is this that and one may believe God does not exist at all.

          I hate discussing about religion and I think it is really stupid to argue about it. Even though people would say that they were just sharing ideas about it I think it's the other way. No two ideas can never be alike, everything will always be different. I almost grew up inside a church and until now I am serving God through music. Others might say that what I do is nothing compared to those who offer their lives in serving God, but still for me this thing I'm doing is enough for thanking the God I believe in to for giving me life. See? One may think that my opinion is foolish but for me it isn't. But because I know that everyone has different ideas I'll respect whoever thinks that way the same way I respect those who has different belief. RESPECT.
       
          I apologize if there would be readers who would find this entry offensive, I never meant to, I just wanted to share my opinion. :)

Rain, rain go away.

          It's raining, AGAIN. Tsk, good thing simple things keep my mood better, like watching kdramas and other foreign series, drinking hot choco and blogging. :) I don't know if I woke on the wrong side of the bed or if the rain just ruined my mood. I just feel kinda groggy and my mood is very down. Hoping for a better weather before going to our wedding gig later.

NYX Girls Nail Polish in Green Papaya

          Here is a swatch of NYX's Green Papaya, I am sorry for my picture's very low quality, I used my phone's camera here. This picture didn't justify the real color, it actually looked more of a sheer neon green. Later before leaving I'll try to post a different picture nearer to its true color.

          Just now, I realized I need to put a watermark whenever I am posting pictures, err but I still don't have any photoshop software here in my laptop and I also do not know how to use one. HAHA Its the weekend and I'll try to make time to learn how to use one, or maybe just start by learning how to put watermarks hihi.

Thank God It's the WEEKEND!

           It has been days since my last post. I have been very busy with a LOT of school works and with other miscellaneous activities. Today's friday and I'm spending my weekend with a lot of series to watch and some paperworks due next week. But after I came home from school guess what, I am watching Lie To Me AGAIN. Haha! I am still not over with this and didn't mind repeating this all over again.

Episode5: Their almost first kiss happened :P

           Friday for me also meant choir practice and have I mentioned that I am also a church pianist? Oh yes, I am. I almost grew up inside a church with my parents active with their own activities also. Teaching a new song was really tiresome and right now I am relaxing while planning my make up for tomorrow. We're to sing on a wedding and I just felt like putting a different make up. Different meant different color of eyeshadow, because I am usually an eyeliner-mascara-lip and cheek tint girl. I was thinking of experimenting and trying something new this time. If it turns up well I might post it here hihihi. I'm really inexperienced when it comes to make up. I just learn by watching make up gurus online. :P

           Another thing is my nails. I am being very experimental and trying unusual colors(for me) like greens, blues, yellows and oranges. I am usually wearing pinks and reds and now I am trying something different because I have found out that these colors suit me well too. Right now I am wearing NYX's Green Papaya which I got as a freebie from an online store I met at Facebook. I'll post tomorrow together with my FOTD(face of the day)  the color of my nail polish. 

          Sooo, I gotta hit the sack and go to sleep I need to rest well to keep those eyebaggies from cultivating hihi. Good night!

Love. Love. Love.

          At my recent post I've mentioned I started watching KDrama Lie To Me. And guess what? I've already finished watching it. HAHA! I know, I know, I'm a BIT of an addict. :P I dunno there's just something about this dramas that make me want for more.
       
          After watching Lie to Me I can't help being obsessed with it and I found myself downloading the OST(although I can only understand a bit of Hangul). I HIGHLY recommend this kdrama because in my opinion it has the right concoction to a great romantic comedy. Yoon Eun Hye and Kang Ji Hwon had a great chemistry that would leave a viewer like me wanting for a part 2(I really really hope they'll make a part 2 :D) Their kissing scenes were not the kind of 'blah' kiss, it was an 'awww' kiss. I even find myself blushing just by watching them.

          Seeing the two of them kiss would make viewers think that something romantic is really going on between the two. I'm now officially a fan of them. Can't have enough words to describe what I've felt upon seeing them hug and kiss each other passionately. I am not a hopeless romantic who would wish for things like this to happen to me in real life(although I do dream sometimes haha!) but I am someone who was moved by the sincerity you could see in them, you'll never think that they were just acting out. It seemed so true. :))))

          I guess that's what you call the power of Love. <3

K-Dramatherapy.

          Wee! The sun finally showed up here in our place after days of nonstop rain and strong winds. Although I also hate hot weather seeing the sun shine brighter is better than typhoon. Anyways I woke up really early to do my everyday routine of aero and study a bit for a quiz later. I was up a little bit earlier than I am used to and got bored so I browse my hard drive for something to watch and I saw this korean drama entitled "Lie to me".

from koreandrama.org

          A friend told me about this drama and she's right it's really funny haha! I'm currently watching the first episode and I'm already enjoying it. 

According to asianmediawiki.com:

          A woman in her late 20's is always asked "when are you going to get married?" On a whim, the woman then lies that she did get married.

Kong Ah-Jung (Yoon Eun-Hye) is an administrative official for the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. She then co-ordinates a meeting for government officials. The meeting appears to flow smoothly and she is even praised by the minister. Disaster soon strikes when bees attack the meeting place and the meeting turns into chaos. Taking responsibility for meeting, Ah-Jung is ordered to submit a written apology. That evening Kong Ah-Jung goes to a club and drinks away her sorrows.

Meanwhile, Hyun Ki-Joon (Kang Ji-Hwan) is the president for conglomerate "World Group." He is handsome, smart and from a rich family. But, in his teen years due to an accident he lost both of his parents. Since that time, Ki-Joon and his younger brother were raised by his aunt. Ki-Joon has a responsible character as an older brother but his younger brother Sang-Hee (Sung Joon) is more carefree. The younger brother Sang-Hee then comes back to Korea and meets Ah-Jung at the club, while she is drinking away her sorrows. Ah-Jung and Sang-Hee start to chat and Ki-Joon shows up to looking for Sang-Hee. He misses Sang-Hee. in front of the club Ah-Jung passes out and Ki-Joon takes her to the hospital. In order to ask Ah-Jung about Sang-Hee's whereabouts, Ki-Joon stays next to Ah-Jung's bed all through the night. The next day, they go their separate ways.

On the following day, Ah-Jung meets So-Ran (Hong Soo-Hyun) who stole away her first love Jae-Beom (Ryu Seung-Soo). So-Ran and Jae-Beom eventually married. After So-Ran and Jae-Beom became a couple, Ah-Jung studied hard and passed her government official exam to impress Jae-Beom. At the hair salon, Ah-Jung on a whim lies to the couple and tells them that she is married. Ah-Jung then goes to a hotel to pay Ki-Joon for the other night's hospital bill. An accident occurs and she spills tomato juice all over her sweater. Ah-Jung is so embarrassed she pretends to pass out. Ki-Joon picks her up and takes her to his hotel room. During this time, Ah-Jung's friends watches and a rumor soon spreads that Ah-Jung and Ki-Joon are married ....

          Just by watching the first episode I think people who likes romance/comedy kdramas would like this. :)

Let's do this!

          It's raining outside and it's kinda cold too. It has been 4 months since I started trimming my food intake and start losing weight. So far I feel good because I have lost weight and felt better too. Maybe on my next post I'll try to post 'before and after pictures for everyone to see the small(hihi) difference since I've lost weight. HA! I must say the first few months were really hard. I needed to refrain from eating sweets, specifically chocolates and ice creams. Oh my, those were my weaknesses, sweets. Before, I can manage not eating 3 regular meals as long as I have a tub of ice cream, any flavor, and a bag of chocolates on my side. Yeah, I know, I know about the risks of diabetes and stuff but I can't help it, sweets are like heroin to me. I also had to refrain from chips and soft drinks or in other words, junk foods. Believe it or not, those were staples to my "food cabin" before. Every time my dad and I would go grocery shopping I would always have a separate basket for my stuff, mainly food and not toiletries. 

          I never admitted to myself that my size was not normal anymore, I've always thought that my pretty face was more important than my waistline, but then I came across with this so called realization and saw the truth. I wasn't just fat, I was obese. And I'm not pretty anymore, all people could notice is how big my ass was now compared to before or how many bulges they could see on my sides and even at my back. I was so bothered when i can't even wear my favorite clothes and all I could wear were loose shirts and maternity looking blouses and leggings. I can't wear normal sized shirt cause bulges would be so noticeable and it was a shame. I wasn't comfortable anymore, I can see pictures of me with my friends and all I could notice was how big I got. It was depressing, I even resulted into asking people about diet pills and even got myself to try one. That was how desperate I was to lose weight instantly. 

          Now, all I've got with me is the will to be healthy and discipline. I almost forgot I also have videos I downloaded from youtube which were a big help not only in achieving what I want but also it saved me a lot of bucks from enrolling in aero classes haha! I don't want people to think that I am just a hypocrite trying to prove myself in cyberspace. No, all I want is to inspire people like me who wants, wishes, and hopes that someday we could also fit in that pretty little dress we've always dreamed of. That I am also doing this to bring out the best in me by giving up the worst part in me first. That dreaming to be skinny someday isn't always about vanity, it's also for the sake of showing people how you love yourself. 

After losing 34lbs :D
