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.

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...

Mr. Crabs

I am selectively listening to Blood Hound Gang's Uhn tiss Uhn Tiss Uhn Tiss almost the whole day. I say selectively, 'coz the lyrics is not really something you would be proud to share to everyone. But the beat is catchy and it triggers my happy brain neurons and makes me want to talk about....king crab legs. Yes, the king crab legs I had last Friday. I love crabs especially if it's cooked in coconut milk. My mom used to cook one whole pot for me everytime I visit Bukidnon. It's such a treat 'coz the Davao-Bukidnon trip takes around 4 hours, so going home to hot rice and a pot of crabs cooked in coconut milk is like being in heaven. It makes me forget how sucky my trip was and just makes me thank my mom for cooking my favorite food. But gone were those days when I just tell my mom I want crabs, 'coz here the crabs are very expensive! They don't have the wet market we have in Valencia that sells crabs for 240php per kilo. The cheapest is 8.99 USD per lb here....

Crafts for less

I don't really know what it is with the holiday season, but my "craftiness" usually kicks in whenever Christmas is fast approaching. It all started about a year ago when I decided to make personalized cards and gifts for my friends, family members, and colleagues. My Mom is really crafty, but I wasn't really interested in making projects when I was a lot younger, 'coz I'm just too lazy to even think about a concept. Our house in the Philippines will always be festive by October 'coz my Mom will decorate the entire place with so much attention to every detail, so that her holiday theme will flow all throughout our house. Meanwhile, I will just sit on the couch and watch TV and lounge like there's no tomorrow. I showed no interest at all, as everything was just too much for my brain cells to handle.
