Skin Care

Been reading about skin care because I am still getting pimples even if it is not that time of the month when I usually get these. I have read information from several sites including dermitage reviews.

I am thinking that maybe this is the right time for me to visit a dermatologist to have my skin checked.

If not, I may have to get natural products that will help me with skin care:

  • eggs
  • honey
  • lemon
  • oatmeal
  • fruits like avocado, cucumber, banana

These should be on my list of things to get when I go back to the supermarket later.

Post-Christmas Shopping Rush

The Christmas shopping rush is over and I hope a lot are happy with the presents they got. Or maybe not.

TriNoma pre-Christmas crowd

I remember reading one time that in other countries, they give gift receipts so that the bearer can return the gift and get another item. Say what? That feels unfair to the giver who spent time and resources to get a gift.

Speaking of gift-giving, many credit card holders are probably reaching for their anti wrinkle face creams as they anticipate or hold in their hands their bills. I’m glad I don’t go through that since I do not have a credit card.

My motto, if you can’t pay in cash, then don’t get it. Period.

New Babies and Toddlers in the Family

When we went home to the province last weekend to visit the wake of our granduncle, I was surprised to see a lot of babies and toddlers in the family. So, aside from my brother’s baby girl,  my cousin bore two more girls from when I last saw her second child.

I don’t even want to think about how many nephews and nieces I have on my mother’s side of the family. My mom sent me an sms during Christmas that there are so many kids during their annual Christmas reunion.

I joked that they should send out birth announcements to us so we know the head count of the offspring, LOL.

kids

I made a little compilation of the young addition to the family that I have pictures of. I know there are missing kids here so to that I say, “sorry po, eto lang meron ako” 😀
