My blog makeover
2008-04-08 00:57:00
I have been struggling for about few days just to search for a new template for this blog.After editing and experimenting the new template the whole day,this new template is finally complete.The previous template was temporary one.Technically,I was looking for a new template with white background.I have been working hard trying to look for something like this.It pretty hard to get a nice template you know.I just felt the illustration is way too big don't you think so?And my post is kinda small now.Arggg!!Geram!!By the way,I'm hoping to be able to find a nice templates with better layout for this blog.

Fine Lines
2008-04-07 22:52:00
I'm noticing I need to pay attention to the fine lines around my eyes these days.I have dry and oily skin and always try to use cream at night before bed but it seems the fine line still appear on my forehead as well.I had used lots of brand name moisturiser and wrinkle cream but none of these works.I have finally found the best fine line cream for my face.According to some Magazines,the best thing for wrinkles is using SPF sunscreen protection to minimize the sun damage on the skin.Few weeks ago,I've bought a set of Elizabeth Grant skincare treatment.I use it everyday and noticed a big difference.I fell in love with this product.My face complexion look healthier,brighter and the fine lines are diminished.I used to like Oil of Olay,Nivea Q10 and ponds products but I think Elizabeth Grant is worth to buy because the products contain Torricelum.Torricelum is a formulation of vitamins, minerals and moisture enriched with substances.Luckily I don't have skin allergy,if you have skin ...

Stone of Heaven
2008-04-03 23:31:00
Asian people believe that wearing jade is the good means of which people will be protected from bad luck, evil spirit and danger.Some Jade ornaments are used to symbolize wealth.But how to know if a jade bangle is real and not fake?My mom bought two Jade Bangles in her friend's Jade store.She told me that her friend gave her special discount on each of this bangle for only RM170 each.I think that's a bit expensive.I sell jewellery before and I know the rough cost of the Jade.I know she wants to buy something for me and my sister for souvenir.My grandma loves to buy Jade.I got a lovely Jade pendant from her as a wedding gift.Real jade can come in a range of colours, from a green that is almost white to a green that is almost black.I am only talking about the basic Jade.It's hardly to compare the Grade of the Jade in bare eyes.My grandma believe that if the colour of the Jade turn darker that means it's real. Since Jade is a stone, it should feel cold even on a warm day.But to be ...

2008-04-02 21:59:00
Yes!It's spring sales.I don't pretty like to wear red but who couldn't resist to grab this dress with just only CAD 4 dollar.It's made of polyester, super comfy and made in Korea.The style, cut, and material is pretty casual.Do you think this is the perfect color to wear regardless of the season!

Earth Hour
2008-03-30 00:45:00
All cities in canada will go dark tonight that mark earth hour.Did your counrty do the energy saving" turning the lights off" today?This is the first time I have heard of it.Everyone who participate the earth hour willl turn off the lights today at 8 pm.I guess Thailand,Phipines and other Asia country already doing this.Earth Hour just a boycott on energy consumption.Saving energy is great and all, but turning off the lights for an hour is not going to do the world any big favours.In fact,this is just only a reminder to people to be aware of energy saving at home.I think it actually help the environment having everyone turn out the lights for an hour a day.What we should be focusing on, is how to adapt ourselves to the changing environment around us, and the changing energy sources.The world is changing and there is absolutely something we can do about it.Do you shut down all of your power, or only the lights?

Fair skin
2008-03-29 20:33:00
I was pretty obsessed with whitening products before but now I don't really look into 'whitening'word in the skincare products.Alot of asian like me obsessed with a fair complexion.I would give an arm and a leg to acquire pasty white skin because asian men always redefined fair skin women as pretty.I had used many whitening products that you can name it.From affordable to expensive branded skincare.When using skincare,I can say that I a bit lazy to make it as a daily routine.Most of the whitening products has Vitamin C,Green tea ingredients on it.The problem that most people don't understand why there isn't any result after using the whitening skincare.From what I know,if we don't use the whitening skincare everyday,you won't see the result.Actually,if you make a daily routine to cleanse your face and use mosturiser daily eventually you will see the fairer skin too.Besides using daily whitening skincare to whiten our skin,we have to make a daily healthy routine as well.Drink ...

Bag the best
2008-03-29 20:33:00
Fashionable women are now willing to spend whatever it takes own a chic bag.It's not about a style but as an collection or extension of our own personality as well.I love buying handbags.It's all about fashion I own more than 20 bags and they go with everything.Coach and Guess is my favourite brand.Now I'm running out of space to keep them all.Everytime I go out shopping I usually go to bag section and look for the latest style in the season.I stop to see them even if I don't buy them.I hate spending money but love spending money on a gorgeous bag.I will look at clearance racks for hours so I can get the best deal on clothes but I don't even blink at spending on a handbag.Do you think a great bag is now a crucial part of a stylish woman's look?

Do You Like Your Name

I don't like my name when I was a child.It's too unusual and hard for people to pronounce.My friends like to make fun of my name because they can't pronouce my name.Whenever I tried to introduced myself to a new friend or co-worker,they can't pronouce it.They will said michelle?,marsha?,marcy?,makai?,marcie?.. .etc.I remember when I was in primary school,teachers can't even pronouce it correctly.I used to hate my name so much.But then I asked my dad why he name me"Marcia"he told me that becuase I was the first child he wants to find a unique name for me.I always envy my sister because her name is beautiful.And I asked my dad why he name my sister"Susan"and he told me that he thought the second child is a boy so he name her in last minute.I even thought about changing it.I would rather have a feminine or flower name like Grace or Rose.Whenever people heard a name rose or violet,they will think that girl is beautiful.I don't quite like my chinese name either and I can't change i...

What color do you wear most

I was organizing up my wardrobe today and I looking over every piece of my wardrobe.I don't even realise that I am dressing black all the time.My wardrobe is so boring that I can't even find a colour in it.I love pink,blue,white and light green colour but it seem like all my clothes are black in colour and rarely wear colour clothes as much as black.What I want to know is what people think when they see a normal person who is dressed in all black all the time?Don't you think I am weird?Like most people I keep safe colours in my wardrobe.Black can be very safe to wear but I don't understand why I feel comfortable with it.I'm the kind of person who is obsessed with fashion.But always ended up buying black and simple clothes.Not to mention my shoes....all black except one wedges that is red in colour.I keep it in the box and never wear it.From what I saw from a magazine saying that wearing a bright colour clothes can cheer you up.I agreed with that but I have to avoid yellows as t...

Strecth Marks Prevention

Having a baby is a happy experience for both the parents.However having a baby can change a lot of things for the woman especially our body.After I had my first daughter,I got those horrible stretch marks on my tummy and thighs.I was one of the unlucky woman.My mother didn't have one single stretch mark.I know it is quite common for women to get stretch marks and others don't.Stretch marks are not only caused during pregnancy.Most of the people including athletes, or body builders can develop them too.I have tried the cocoa butter,vitamin oil and those expensive promising brand but none of them work.I was fed up with the broken promises of stretch mark creams and lotions.I know I can have them surgically removed and that need a few thousand dollars but I wouldn't.I used to think there isn't any cream to cure permanent white shiny sheen on my tummy.I have found a good stretch mark cream containing natural ingredients that should help.If you are facing a similar problem like me,yo...
