At the age of 33, I still have a terrible relationship with makeup. I blame myself for not finding enough time to practice. It’s a good thing though that I spend most hours of each day in the kitchen where make up is 99% a no-no [great excuse, huh?]. Two years ago, Bebe brought home a tube of EverFresh makeup by Maybelline from his UK trip with his best bud, Lo. I was actually the one who

I was digging in my wardrobe with the intense desire to know if I could find a red dress for tomorrow’s family reunion dinner and ta-dah --- there was none. I should have prepared earlier but did not. Sigh. Why wasn’t I so surprised to find myself unorganized? So anyhoo, there are loads of lovely dresses in red right now on sale. Wow! It’s fun to do some online window shopping when prices

Bebe signed up for Bubbleroom for my sake and received a welcome gift containing a tube of No7 Essential Moisture Day Cream, a tube of No7 Instant Vitality Eye Roll-on by Boots and a pair of cute black undies. That was my first encounter with Boots’ No7 skin care product line. Did I try it at once? You bet! Did I like it? So much! I purchased three of these eye roll-ons during our one-week

I’ve heard about invisalign a few years back and got really interested about it. It’s kinda unique idea to have your crooked teeth straightened using clear aligners instead of the bulky and irritating braces. My younger brother’s presently undergoing teeth straightening with the help of braces for two years now. Although he’s happy knowing that he’ll soon have his dental problem solved, every

Unlike most fashion lovers, I happen to only have a few pairs of earrings in my collection. The last time I’ve checked, I have fourteen, a dozen of stud earrings and two pairs of hoop earrings. I guess it’s time for me to purchase a few more hoops to increase the number of my collection. Thanks to the power of the internet, searching for them has become so easy. Here are five pairs of drop

One of my front teeth was damaged when I met an accident at the age of seven. It was a rainy afternoon when a small public vehicle lost control and ran over me and my mom. I woke up in a hospital bed and could not recall what had happened. Mom and I stayed under the care of our doctors for days. We recovered after some time except for my broken front tooth. Since then, I had the tooth filled

Included in Bebe’s wish list is a new set of home theater system. The one we have still functions without issues but it’s already outdated. If I am not mistaking, it’s more than ten years old and that’s enough reason for us to get a new set. Looking around, I’ve stumbled upon the Reflection Series by Boston Acoustics.

I’ve learned about geocaching today [thanks to Bebe for the quick lecture] and man oh man … it’s just now that I’ve realized that I have been missing something fun and exciting to do outdoors. Summer might be long gone but I don’t think winter’s going to stop me from becoming a geocacher. All I need to do is to search the internet for the best gps for geocaching, buy myself the gps device and

As soon as Bebe received his PS3 gift on his birthday [March 2010], he started purchasing game discs and gadgets at once. He got hold of loads of PS3 games, another wireless remote control, a dance pad and the rock band set.So far, our favorite PS3 games are Virtual Tennis and Rock Band. I've posted awhile back about the defective guitar of the Rock Band set we've gotten which has been quickly

Girls love teddies!While going around the Department Store of SM Mall of Asia, we spotted a group of teddy bears waving at us. Cuddly and irresistible, Madde and I hugged the big ones. The teddy bears were only priced at around Php 1,200 which wasn't bad at all. We wished we could take them back home to Sweden. If only we could fit them inside our luggage, why not? *sigh*Because we could not

During our third day in Hong Kong, Bebe, Lo and I agreed on spending the day in Mong Kok which is located in the Yau Tsim Mong District. The first establishment we visited was the Langham Place, a mall,hotel and office complex which opened its doors to the public in 2004. My first impression? --- A huge W-O-W![On the photo below: The Langham Place Tower]The first thing that has captured my

After shopping at an Asian store near Stockholm, the boutique owner has given my boyfriend a magnetic business card. The card has been on our refrigerator door for months now. Everytime a friend asks me to recommended an Asian store, I simply proceed to the kitchen and check for the details on the business card on our fridge door.Magnetic business cards actually make a lot of sense. I do

According to Chinese astrology, my birthyear [1978] has the horse as its zodiac sign which means whoever messes up with me will surely receive a hard kick on the face [just kidding!]. Kidding aside, I am really looking forward to finding a nice piece of horse pendant to add on my wish list.When I first laid my eyes on Roberto Coin's necklace that comes with a horse pendant I was striked with so

I woke up late this morning *yawn*. I wasn't able to proceed to dreamland until after three in the morning. My Bebe left home very early yesterday to attend to a bimonthly school activity in another town. I was missing Bebe so terribly much that falling asleep was like a difficult task to accomplish.
Anyway, my lonely Thursday morning [very late, too] began with a cup of hot chocolate to
