Creyziness

Since the start of this pandemic our company has been providing us bus services to help us with the transportation safety issue.  The bus usually arrives 5:05am at the stop. But last Monday I left house at 4:59am, I was rushing and catching my breath as I chased a trike. The trike ride to the stop usually takes 5-8 minutes. I was praying but worry is taking over. Upon nearing the stop, I saw a bus that looks like our service passed by already, it was far by the time I reached the stop. Disappointment came over me. I jump out the trike, gave my fare and started walking. From haste, my movement turned slow. At this early hour I felt tired already. I was about to book a Grab car, but there is something in me that makes me want to wait more. And yes, it's too early so there's no harm done if I'll stay up until 5:15am. I know this may sound silly but this is one of those times wherein circumstances are hitting me with senses and reality but instead I'm choosing s...

A week ago I was craving for an Indian Mango, I was so desperate to have one that I'm willing to risk my health to go outside to satisfy my craving. But hindrances came pouring to the point that I realized it wasn't worth the effort of risking myself and everyone in my cousin's household. It is just a want. Then moving forward today, that Indian Mango cravings is not in my mind anymore, I was actually immersing myself in Dr. Charles Stanley's preaching at our Granny's Roof deck, when suddenly my Aunt came by and asked me if I want an Indian Mango, and of course I said yes. Then it hit me, God provides but not in our terms but in accordance to His will. Oftentimes I cry for the wrong stuff because I have the wrong mindset: I want this, and I want it now - is my kind of thing, not logical and all feelings and that is where everything and rain of tears (I'm a crybaby) goes down the drain. I overthink a lot which leads to questioning my worth and my face, body and a...

Hello Lovelies!      It's been a while since I last posted here. And gawwwwd, how I miss it! So moving forward, here's a little info post for all of us. Since the beauty industry is continuing to grow, beauty products kept popping here and there, but of course as a responsible consumer we must always "check the label".      So here are the labels I have encountered in my beauty product journey: USDA - is a program created by the Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) of the United States Department of Agriculture with the aim to provide US Producers the opportunity to market their goods domestically and internationally by undergoing quality check based on AMS USDA Organic Standards which was developed by the National Organic Program (NOP) , and also to provide consumers worldwide with guaranteed quality goods. There are 3 Organic Product Standards in USDA, namely Crop Standard, Handling Standard &  Livestock and Poultry Standards. So if...

Hello Lovely! Hope you are well and feeling all loved (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧♥♥♥ Oh oils! I've always been an avid fan of Sunflower Oil since 2013 UNTIL RECENTLY , I discovered something that changed my mind:  " The Complete List of Comedogenic Oils " by Tash of Holistic Health Herbalist  , a blog post which has a table of  oil kinds and their comedogenic rating.  " Comedogenic say what?? I know, I feel yah."   So what is Comedogenic ? "Comedogenic is the ability of an oil to block the pores which can result to blackheads or to pimples."  The Comedogenic Rating Table provided by  Holistic Health Herbalist  is very helpful for those people who use oil as part of their skin care routine,  and also for those who make their own DIY moisturizers, like me. I want my face and body care routine to be as personal as it can be. As much as possible I want to know what I put on my skin and hair--that's the reason why I switch...

Hello Lovelies! Happy New Year! Let's start the year right by doing things right, especially at the "Savings Department" . Living through 2018 was quite  a pain and a struggle, specifically in the financial part--however, if there's one thing I like about experiencing struggles is the fact that we, as human beings, tend to be more curious about our current situation, we become very sensitive to know what's the root of the struggle, and in my case, it is in the way I handle my money. Difficult times breathe wisdom and knowledge, ain't that right? So being aware of that, I browse around YouTube and end up signing up for a Mind Valley Masterclass about Financial Management, again, Mind Valley didn't sponsored this post, I'm just sharing my experience.  So moving on, the Masterclass was a webinar where they've mentioned a renowned financial coach by the name "T Harv Eker" and his 6 Accounts, see infographic below. I st...

Hello Lovelies! It has been awhile since I post about a product review (or anything, due to me taking the board exam, and passed it thru Christ who strengthens me <3 ) So back to the review, here it is the trending spray deo from the brand Fairness & Flawless,  "Sgt. at Arms". Got it from this Shopee Store:  Fairness and Flawless KC Pros: Easy to use. Easy to set spray. It lasted a month and a half. I didn't stink. It didn't make my underarms darker. Cons: Hard to find, got it online. Not antiperspirant (in my case). As for the whitening part, it didn't help, I guess I should've purchased also the cream. Kinda pricey, for 150 + shipping fee. Disclaimer:  This product may or may not work superb on me but it doesn't mean that it will or will not work for you also. Our bodies, diets and health states are different. So I'm not saying that this product will work miracles for everyone. Let's be clear a...

My daily routine to cope up with my depression ( ಠ◡ಠ ) Note: This is a subjective article , I just want to share my experience on how I deal with my depression. And also, I’m not clinically treated or diagnosed of depression, I just assessed it myself, (I'm no doctor I know) because you see counselling and mental health doctor fees here in the Philippines are really expensive. So bear with me, I just want to share this because it somehow helped me and still is—that’s why I’m still here. <3 Hopefully, you or someone out there will benefit from this. Thanks for being here! (☞ﾟ∀ﾟ)☞ Let me put this into two parts: internally & externally . Think of it as baking, without the right amount of ingredients and the exact heat needed, our cake will be either burned or bland. It’s about balance you see, of the outside and of within. No matter what religion and spiritual beliefs we are in, we can all pray or meditate. This one helped, helps and still helping me right no...

Hello Lovelies! As I was sliding back into reading the Bible (because I felt like I was backsliding ever since 2018 started. SAD...), I didn't know where to start, that's why I decided to start from where it all began: Genesis. The funny thing is, I've read Genesis years ago and I treated it as a history like book--I was just picturing how God created the world and etc. BUT NOW as I read it again, my understanding about it got deeper *I guess*, I bet it is because of what was preached awhile ago during our church service that: "(The Bible) it's scriptures were breathed by God" Therefore it is God talking to us; with that in mind, as soon as I started to began my quiet time I was quite amazed that by reading the first chapter of Genesis I was reminded of my walk with God. "And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light." - Genesis 1:3 When I first came to know our Lord, those were my dark days and that's where magic started. U...

Hello Lovelies! Last December 2016 I won a 1000 Php GC (gift certificate) from Nails.Glow at our Christmas Party and last December 2017 (yeah, a year after--see how busy I am balancing my life? Nah, just kidding. xD It's just me being a couch potato. *bow*) when I finally made up my mind to go the distance and embark a journey to the North, SM North EDSA that is (I'm residing at Pasig and it's a struggle you know). Disclaimer: I only took a picture of my GC's Customer's Copy, because the place was packed that time and I want to respect the privacy of my co-customers. So forgive me. What?   Nail.Glow The Block Where? SM North The Block The services I availed were: Foot Spa (Aromatherapy) 240 Php Half Leg Wax 560 Underarm Wax 350 Php Which all-in-all amounted to 1150 Php. Price may vary from time to time, the pricelist stated where as of December 2017. Check the updated pricelist on their branch first before proceeding with the service. Thank ...

Hello Lovelies! How did you spend your holidays? Hope that all of you had fun. ლ(́◉◞౪◟◉‵ლ) So let me start 2018 with a review, but before that--a little background: I encountered this product  while browsing on IG--that time I was on the look out for some organic beauty products to improve my skin--at first I was skeptical, because I don't know the brand and even though there are testimonies and reviews, I still remain doubtful about this product with a hint of interest, that's why in order to satisfy my curiosity, I tried it myself. So TADA! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ I ordered the (3) three products that interests me: The All in One Soap Wild Flower Feminine Wash Fresh & White Deodorant   Where?    BeautyHaven (Shopee Store)  All in One Soap (135 Php) Pros: Smells good. As it promises, it does smell like VS's Perfume. Has cooling effect, good for hot summer days. Gives that presko feeling. Lathers easily. It has a sl...

Hello Lovelies! How was your week? Christmas is getting nearer, right? How about a treat? This post is for all furniture lovers, architects and interior designers out there, for today will be about the "Kuysen" Experience. If you are involve in the interior design field & architectural field perhaps you have heard about  Kuysen --in my experience, I first encountered  Kuysen  as bathroom fixtures supplier but upon being invited on their showroom in Makati I, and so as my officemates, learned that  Kuysen  is far more diverse; they don't just supply  bathroom fixtures but also furniture and lighting fixtures and not just any furniture and lightings but designer made ones, which means that it will not just be comfortable but an eye candy too.  Disclaimer: This is not a sponsored post. I am not in anyway affiliated with Kuysen and with all the brand you'll about to read in this post. I'm just a fan. Thank you! Kuysen takes pride ...
