Yiruma

I’ve always admired people who play the piano well. Ahem, the hubby used to play the piano for me. Used to, he can’t find time to play these days, being busy and all that stuff. All he ever ticks are laptop keyboards.

The hubby and I watched Jim Chappell from a different lifetime. We enjoy Yanni’s music, as well as David Benoit’s and maybe a couple more that I can’t remember.

A while ago I was listening (or more like You-Tubing) to a young man play the guitar with exceptional skills, I noticed the name Yiruma beside his videos. They are both Koreans.

Here is a video of Yiruma’s music.

Be prepared to be touched with the emotions that go with the song. It will surely tug your heart strings and open those tear ducts.

Skin Care with Celeteque Advanced

I’ve written in this post about Aging Gracefully and now I’m going to “face” these lines with Celeteque Advanced. Yep,we may not admit it but we all are looking for that fountain of youth that will make us stop the aging process, well, at least with how we look since we can’t be living forever.

Anyway, one of my favorite products, Celeteque, has a new line of beauty products: Celeteque Advanced.

Celeteque Advanced

Celeteque Anti-Wrinkle Facial Moisturizer (SRP PhP620.00), Celeteque Advanced Anti-Wrinkle Ultra-Hydrating Cleanser (Light Cleansing Oil) (SRP PhP369.00) and Celeteque Advanced Anti-Aging Power Serum Concentrated (SRP PhP 699.00).

Celeteque Anti-Wrinkle Facial Moisturizer is (also) good for sensitive skin because it is fragrance-free, dermatologist-tested and doesn’t clog the pores.

Celeteque Advanced

Celeteque Advanced Anti-Wrinkle Ultra-Hydrating Cleanser (Light Cleansing Oil) is good for cleaning the face and removing make-up. It’s dual vitamin regenerating complex increases the skin’s elasticity and moisture content. In just 6 weeks, skin firms up and strengthens while fine lines are reduced.

Celeteque Advanced

Celeteque Advanced Anti-Aging Power Serum Concentrated has power serum made up of Cytostimulin Lipopeptides and exotic fruits extracts. These provide strong anti-aging and anti-oxidant properties against DNA damage and smoothens the skin in as early as 1 week of usage.

Wedding in the Family

Several people I know has altar dates this year and next year too. In fact, we have a family wedding in less than a month.

I’m sure my BIL had a difficult time choosing the best one among so many choices for diamond engagement rings, just as he and his would-be wife spent a lot of time choosing the textile, styles and color coordination of the formal wear their entourage would be wearing.

They even had family members fit new clothes just for the occasion. Hmmm… maybe because they know I don’t have decent and acceptable clothes to wear, haha.

My two younger children are included in the entourage, the son as a ring bearer and the younger daughter as a flower girl.

Both are excited of course even if they feel a bit bad they have to miss a school day for this affair.

Rainy Days Are Here

The nights are colder now and rarely do I hear the complaint “it’s hot” from people.The rains, torrential and like cats and dogs most of the time, just when the children are on their way home from school, are at times too much to handle.

To those living in higher altitude, I guess it is time to bring out those heated mattress pads. For us who are in the lowlands, we minimize the use of electrical appliances that make the rooms cool since there is a lot of cool air circulating around.

Every afternoon, strong rains beat down on us. A lot of people are getting sick because from morning till mid-afternoon the sun is shining so brightly but the rains come down from mid-afternoon till evening.

How can one prepare for the rainy days to avoid getting sick?

  1. Take plenty of vit c love, be these in tablet form or from fresh sources.
  2. Get enough sleep and eat the right kind of food.
  3. Bring your umbrella and/or raincoat and/or rain gear every time you step out of your house.
  4. Rest if you fell unwell.
  5. Consult a doctor for persistent cough, flu, fever and/or runny nose.
