Eye Cream to the test & Entourage

 

 ’Got only a few hours of sleep. Mi Mama is asking ’bout the raccoon eyes already.. I’ve been using Olay Total Effects Eye Transforming Cream that promises to transform and revitalize the area around the eye. No dramatic results as of press time for me. But i guess, i’ve been too stubborn to hit the sack early because i’ve been watching Entourage on DVD. You keep telling yourself it’s going to be the last before you call it a night but then episode + episode + episode /  late night = dark undereye circles.

 I hope I could use up the whole pot of cream and see some changes or transformation on my eyes. I hope my eyes would open up and shine for more late nightcaps…

Not so fine day.

I chose to name this blog “One Fine Day” as I would like everything in my life to be on a positive note and shy away from anything negative..But today, is an exception. Boy, I’m so mad, irate & furious today..I wanted to scream and then have a quiet moment to myself and cave in..Not in the mood for work..

Grabbed my Ipod and got lost in tunes. I got Storm by Lifehouse playing. In some ways, the lyrics were heartfelt.

       ” I know you didn’t bring me out here to drown
         So why am I ten feet under and upside down
         Barely surviving has become my purpose
         Because I’m so used to living underneath the surface.”

       “And I will walk on water
        And you will catch me if I fall
        And I will get lost into your eyes
        And everything will be all right
        And everything will be all right.”

Time to ponder..Life sometimes ain’t fair.

Reflections

 

 Being away from home makes you miss all the important events, holidays and occassions especially during Lenten Season. Today is Holy Wednesday and I’m still working. Good thing that in Arab culture, the birth of Prophet Mohammed falls on a Thursday-for us Christians it’s Maundy Thursday meaning a holiday for us in the public and private sectors. That means we can fully observe and reflect during this time. Since Saturday, I’ve been fasting and praying. I’m looking forward to attend the service on Friday and Sunday Unfortunately we have work on Sunday. Work week in Dubai starts on a Sunday and in some sectors Saturday.

Anyways, hoping to spend some quiet time with Mi Amour and reflect on God’s purpose in our life.

God Bless Us…

The kind of shoes I am.

You Are Loafers

You are confident, powerful, and successful. Hard working and business like, you always dress and act appropriately.You are consistent and a bit conservative. You aren’t really susceptible to trends, although you always dress well. While you tend to be formal, you know how to adapt to your surroundings. So are professional at work… but more laid back when your with your friends. You should live: In a huge city You should work: In a competitive field where you can rise to the top

What Kind of Shoe Are You?

Actually, I’m not sure about loafers but i remember I  had one in Grade6, it was Hush Puppies and i paired it with checkered shorts and fitted shirt kind of preppy look.

A call from Atlantis

I’ve got a call..yup..not just any other call..somebody’s offering a job!! wohooo… yup, i’m still marketable..actually, it’s the third call and interview I got from the same company (I went to all sorts-orientation, interview, examination-of which i was the highest from a group of 50 & some negotiations..wheww) 2nd interview with the Training Director and now a 3rd which I didn’t confirm yet. Nope, I’m not a snob, but to make the long story short, they ask me to see the Director of Sales & Marketing this time. OMG, I can’t comprehend how could I manage but Im really looking forward to it.

Thank God that opportunity knocks not only once, but all the time…

A night with the Ghost

         

MA & I just watched the 12th episode of Ghost Whisperer Season3, since after the writer’s strike, 6 new episodes shall be released this coming April. I just can’t wait to watch it again though most of the time i feel so terrified and feel goosebumps especially when Melinda tries to seek the ghosts by herself. I wish Jim will be there to accompany her.

They say GH’s story lines were predictable as it starts with the haunting of the troubled ghosts with unfinished business that keeps them eathbound until Melinda tries to locate the family in order to help her piece together what happened when the ghost was still alive or during the time of death to finally help them understand and “crossover” into the light.

From season1 to 3, I find it quite intruiging (not only Melinda’s wardrobe choices) as each episode has its own twists and it leads to Melinda’s discovery of herself and their life in Grandview. As always, I love how Jim supports Melinda with her “Gift” and how Melinda tries to help Jim get away with guilt on ep. “First do no harm”. Aside from friendship, family and relationship issues; I look forward on how Jim & Melinda handles their own marital situations. It’s very ideal, refreshing and heartwarming how they complement each other. As they say in marriage, you really have to grow with your partner to make things work.

Do you think its cool to see ghosts? I think i will just go nuts if i see one. Just the thought of having a ghost attached to me makes me  so scared, what more if i actually see one. I pretty much enjoyed this one and looking forward to see the upcoming episodes, goodthing thing there’ll be a Season4.
