Awesome lipbalms!

I have very dry lips and I could not start the day without putting lip balm on my lips. My usual routine will be lipbalm then lipgloss. I rarely use lipsticks 'coz it dries my lips out and leaves my lips peeling after an hour or so. I have been looking for a good lipbalm for years now. I loved Body Shop's Born Lippy, but I still have to work on my driving skills to get to the interstate and off to the mall that has the Body Shop. So I settled for Carmex in Cherry and Original. I like the Original flavor even if the smell of petroleum jelly is too overpowering. My lipgloss and Carmex are like lovers - they work really well together. Until one day, as I was on Youtube, I came across one of PinkieCharm's videos about lipbalms.Towards the end of her video, she mentioned Vintage Sisters lipbalms - a lipbalm that actually works. So I went ahead and checked the site, checked other reviews too, and surprisingly, all of the people who used it liked it and even recommended it. Unlike most of them who got like a dozen lipbalms, I only picked two flavors from their liplickers section - Pina Colada and Gummy Bear. The price was a little higher compared to my handy dandy Carmex balm, but I went ahead and gave it a try anyway. They ship really fast, so I got my hands on these babies in 2 days after they notified me that my order has been shipped. It came in a little pouch with the VintageSister business card. I opened Gummy Bear first and what they said was true - it never dries out your lips, it stays on, and it tastes good too! I had to stop myself from licking my lips after applying it 'coz it tasted like I just wiped candy on my lips. Yummm! I opened Pina Colada tonight, it smells just like a glass of Pina Colada, but it's clear so it won't leave a hint of red on your lips like Gummy Bear. 

I would definitely recommend Vintage Sister's lipbalms. You can get one from http://www.vintagesister.com/ and pick the flavor that you would want on your lips. The case is so handy too, it's tiny but it has a lot of balm in it, so it will take you awhile before you hit pan.

Medical Examination at SLMCEC

November 9-10, 2009 This will be a blow by blow account of my medical exam that took place last week. If you want to be first in line, you can be there as early as 3am, but I went there at 5am because I wanted to make sure that I am safe while taking the exam and I don't want to wait in line for 2-3 hours. It was a good move, since they were already accepting applicants at 5am and I got in around 5:20am and I was the 54th applicant of the day. Make sure to have the following ready: 1. Passport 2. 4 2x2 visa pictures (they will only take 3 though, but I brought 4 since that's their requirement) 3. Original and photocopy of approval letter from the embassy 4. Print out of your interview schedule 5. Black ballpoint pen 6. Payment (213.35 - exchange rate is at 48) Flow chart: 1. At 5:30 I already got in and filled out the Patient Data Sheet form. Memorize your fiance's address and phone number or at least have a copy of it. 2. The guard called us up for the digital picture taki

I'm not so evil after all

" I never got the chance to be your trainee, but I heard a lot of good things about you Ms. Dee." Reading this post from someone I barely even know made my heart flutter. I know that I have been totally brutal with my trainees when I was still working as a trainer back home 'coz I want them to be excellent in their field. I know I was hated by many 'coz I don't know how to kiss people's asses. I even almost got in trouble with our big boss when I was only passing a few people during interviews. A lot of people were mad at me 'coz of my unbelievable standards. A lot of times it did affect me and all I wanted was to please everyone, but I was also pushed by my one of my supervisors not to lower my standards. I got reprimanded for passing a few people during interviews by our big boss, and I got reprimanded by my direct supervisor for passing a lot of trainees during my class. I was totally confused when I was starting up in my new field. But time, experience

The Perpetually Tanned Filipina's Thursday bus adventure

WARNING: LONG POST AHEAD. Read at your own risk. If there is one thing I have learned today, it's that attracting positive thoughts brings you positive results. I took the bus for the 3rd time today, 'coz my hubs had to work and I didn't want him to take a day off just to drive me to the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles). I had to go there to get my non-driver ID for the nth time 'coz I received a letter in the mail saying that I had a discrepancy on my birthdate. To me it was impossible 'coz all of my documents indicate the same birthdate. Since it was indicated in the letter that I had to go to their office and present documents, I took all the courage to take the bus - with a new route today. I went to the Social Security office two times, so I was familiar with that route. I woke up at 9am to get ready 'coz I knew that the bus will be passing by our street at 10-ish. I had to put sunblock on my face, but totally forgot to apply sunblock on my legs and
