My HG ID! :)

It’s here! I was not actually expecting it to arrive today, more like on the 26th.

I was shocked when mom shouted from the living room (I was up in my room) that I have a package downstairs. As I’ve mentioned earlier, I was not expecting it to arrive today. So, I went down, thinking it might be something else (but I suddenly remembered I didn’t purchased anything online the last week) and stared hard at the thin envelope my mom was holding. And then it hit me. My CAFEPRESS order has finally arrived! Woohoo!

It’s nothing to brag about, it’s just that, I AM A FAN! The ID itself is FREE but you have to pay for the shipping which is just $4.

Behold, my own Panem District ID. Distric 4 represent!

Express Your Style

Oh, I love accessories! I love charm bracelets and everything about them. My mother introduced them to me years ago and I use them no matter what the occasion is. Just earlier, I decided to check out the internet for stores that offers unique styles of bracelets, and lo and behold, I’m glad I found out about www.chamilia.com.

If you ask me, I fell in love instantly with their trendy jewelries. Chamilia gives you the opportunity to be creative and make your own necklaces, bracelets, earrings just the way you like it. With their wide range of playful, artistic beads, you can design your own unique charm bracelets in just a matter of minutes. You can choose from leather bracelets to sterling silver. From there, you can now select your favourite beads. I have to warn you though, you’ll be amazed with how many beads and styles that you can choose from. I have to admit I was overwhelmed with their selection.

So far, I like the Miss Chamilia collection. It’s my favourite out of them all.

No matter what your fashion style is: chic, preppy, glam, urban, classic, festival, sporty, boho, I’m pretty sure a Chamilia accessory will just fit right in.

Skin Care: Cleopatra’s Choice

Back in HS, I never really took care of my skin until I went to College. I mean, yeah I wash my face with a facial wash but not daily. Sometimes, I even forgot to do it before I go to sleep. Probably because of stress from school and all that stuff. In fact, I don’t have a skin regime to brag about. I don’t know how it happened, but I remembered getting conscious about the way I look. I came from an all girls school and was suddenly thrust to a co-ed College, that means I get to be with boys as well. And that was a whole lot different experience from a sixteen year old girl who only had girls for classmates her whole life, and women and nuns for teachers.

So I guess I transformed just like any normal teenager. I remembered asking my mom to buy me skin care stuff for my face and whatnot. It’s a good thing though, that I didn’t suffered from severe acne unlike other teenage girls I knew. I guess that’s the only good thing about me.

Anyway, I found quite a lot of good products from Cleopatras Choice facial care that might help people suffering from Eczema, Psoriasis or Acne. What I like to check out is this Adovia Dead Sea Mineral Lift Serum for my mom and the Exfoliating Dead Sea Facial Salts – Natural. I read some good feedbacks from them so far.

Still In The Past?

So my mom and I went to this quite familiar big grocery store last week since we were in a hurry and decided to shop there. The place is okay, it’s really big and aside from the grocery itself, they also have a few food stalls where you can eat while you wait or have a snack after the tiring grocery shopping. As we were about to pay our bill, my mom and I can’t help but noticed that they are still using the old school cashiers.

They still manually input the prices of each of the products we bought, and get this, almost all of the products ranging from canned goods, meat, fruits, candies, cookies, toiletries, etc, they all seemed to know the prices very well. They don’t have a barcode scanner or posiflex equipments to accommodate faster work. I got really embarrassed when my mom suddenly questioned the cashier woman as to why they are still using an old cashier and not the new ones. I didn’t bother to stay there to hear the answer. Ha ha. In my mind, maybe the company can’t afford using POS? Hmm..

My First: Globe Tattoo

Look what came in the mail yesterday! I ordered it online from Globe’s online store last Saturday and was told that it will be delivered to me by Tuesday. And they’re true to their words. The payment method is cash on delivery by the way.

Right now, I have two broadband sticks here. One Smart and the other is Globe. I use the former for FBT. =P As for Globe, I have no problem with loading it since I have a postpaid line. =)
