I can say I am completely proud of my skin for not having a severe case of acne. I am truly grateful. Every morning when I wake up, I stare at my face for any possible skin problems, so far everything's A-OK. I do get small zits here and there, but not all at once, heavens no. I only get it when it's almost that time of the month, plus they are very small, not very noticeable. When my hormones went haywire last year, my chin was all bumpy and red and left dark spots. I was always crying because of it. When I started going to the gym last year, There was a big difference to my chin, It wasn't as red as it used to, I guess when I lost a little weight my skin pores functioned better. A lot of people suffer from severe acne problems and they usually ask how to get rid of acne? Believe me, I had tried a lot of drug store acne products but nothing lived up to it's name, seriously. Well, There are hundreds of products out there that you can actually try, It really depends on your skin. Read a lot of reviews before purchasing anything, you just never know, There might be a best one out there, just don't give up.
steer clear of Acne
Vegas + My future soldier
Now that the party is over, We'll be heading to Las Vegas on the 28th of this month. We're supposed to leave on the 29th and come back on the 1st of October, but since we received a notice for the tenting and fumigation that will start on the 28th, we need to vacate the house first thing in the morning. I passed my 2 days of leave weeks ago. Hubby can't stop talking about our trip, he'll be leaving for basic training on November 7, that's why I am soooooo sad right now. I know, I know - I don't need to be sad, I have to be happy for him. It's not as bad as we thought it would be, they'll be having their Christmas break in December that means he can come home then! After that, he'll continue on until he graduates from basic training. His training will be at Fort Jackson, South Carolina. His AIT (Advanced Individual Training) Will be at Fort Sam, San Antonio, Texas. He said that We can come and visit him there, It's going to be an experience for me traveling with Nathan in another state. I guess being a military wife is not that bad, I'll probably get the hang of it. I know I'll miss him terribly but God is good and he'll provide us with the comfort and patience as well as the safety for my dear husband. He is excited to leave, not because he wants to leave us but because this is such a huge turning point for him, It's a new career after being involved in the cargo for so long. Anyways, I know he can do it. Back to our Vegas trip - I am sooo excited to visit vegas, because at the same time I'll be meeting up with my dad and my sister Athena who I hadn't seen for 7 years! :) I am thinking of what to get for them, especially for my sister, since she is a fellow Hello kitty lover, that would be so easy. I wish I have an Acer Aspire laptop, something a bit smaller and easy to carry. Since we are using my laptop bag, I have to go out and buy a cute and girly laptop sleeve to use on our Vegas trip, (sigh) There's just a lot on my list right now.
Weekly recap
I'm finally back in the blogging world for this week. I need to finish a lot of stuff online, need to upload pics and back up all my files because lately my laptop has been running very slow right now. We went to Michael's earlier this evening, my sis-in-law couldn't stop talking about how successful her daughter's debut went. She'll turn 18 on September 23rd, She had to schedule the party around September 11 instead for the convenience of her guests, which is a Saturday. And Celina would be going off to UC Irvine after her birthday anyway. I was part of her 18 candles, and I promised myself I wouldn't get emotional but lo and behold - I did! My husband's like - you made a scene! And I was like, no I didn't... It was funny, I always get emotional at weddings and birthdays, that's why I hate speaking in front of a large crowd. But seriously, I grew to love my Sis-in-law's children, they are like my own siblings, I care very much for them. I am so proud of them, and I am blessed and privileged to have met them. Celina and her mom went shopping today for her dorm stuff, but we'll get to see her every week since she'll be home in the weekends along with her laundry. She was so pretty during the party, ms. beauty and brains, We are all proud of her. I'll post a few pictures here, but complete pictures are all posted on my facebook.
my little world
It's 2:30 in the morning and I am here typing this post. Hi, Kit - how are ya? Well, I'm doing just fine, thank you. A lot has been happening and I felt like I was away for too long. I miss my bloggie. I miss the blogworld. I feel like nobody really cares about blogs anymore. Well, number one: There's facebook. I'm on it most of the time. I enjoy posting photo albums of my daily adventures, posting tidbits of what I am doing and Sharing video clips of just about anything. I still value my blog, and I plan on keeping it. It's just so good reading your previous posts from years ago, an online journal is very therapeutic and I will write as long as I live. People might just come by and say a quick hello without reading my stuff, It's still ok... It's partially my fault. I've stopped visiting blogs and stopped commenting as well. So sue me. I had given up my blogging life long time ago. I have a life, too. Sometimes we just need to be in balance. I find it so hard to believe that people can be so addicted to the internet. I still do, but I'm in balance. My eyes no longer hurt from staring at the computer screen, no more headaches either. I am concentrated more on my family and work. I guess that's life....
casablanca fans
I am so loving the fans over at lightingshowplace.com. Casablanca fans are so elegant looking, just perfect for the home design I'm thinking about. I love planning and mapping out decorations that are needed for a home. I may not have it just yet but sooner or later I will have it someday. I love decorating a home so much that is why I am so excited to move into our own house, shopping for bits and pieces of home decor... ahh, I love it! I'm just waiting until my husband finishes Army basic training and his AIT. In seven months, we'll know for sure where we'll be heading next. This is a tough one and I am having mixed emotions about it. I know it's going to be for the better because everything happens for a reason. God is so good... Anyways, back to our ceiling fan talk, you should go visit their website, like right now, see if you like anything and I know you will. It'll be worth investing your money in. ;)
chaise lounges
Hubby and I can't stop imagining our own dream home. I know it's going to be years from now but hey - time is ticking by so fast the minute you know it, we're buying our first home! And of course it has to have outdoor chaise lounges, you just gotta love them! Perfect for summer days, if you just want to kick back and relax out in the sun, this is for you! What's great about it is there are a lot of selections to choose from, they have great styles that can fit your lovely home. Mind you, though - they are pretty pricey, but I hope that doesn't stop you from getting one, it really depends on what you want plus you'll get your money's worth, am I right? Hope you find yours today. Anyways, I'm not done browsing around their website. I'll see you guys in a bit.
student laptop insurance
My co-worker in Hawaii who was a college student at the time told me that someone had broke into his car. I asked him if any of his valuables were stolen, and he said they stole his textbooks, I couldn't remember if his laptop was in his car but that's what he said, they didn't steal his other stuff - only textbooks. Golly! Nowadays, you just don't know what's coming at you. Everybody is in terrible need. My niece a few days ago was searching for cheap college textbooks, apparently they were all expensive, she even joked with her uncle (hubby) if he could buy her textbooks for her. The answer was NO. Anyways, this is very interesting for those students out there so read on. It's about student laptop insurance that is very affordable for every student. The K-12 laptop insurance policy covers all kinds of computers and has a replacement cost coverage against all kinds of damages, fire, theft, vandalisms and natural disasters. These are the things we experience all the time so why not try studentinsurancepartners.com. Just think about it, It's affordable and at least you're protected.
