Beauty Secret Tag

I was blog hopping and found this tag which I didn't hesitate to snag. I don't have a beauty secret. I'm not "maarte" as what others call it but because of pimples, I have to resort on using some products and a little bit of make up everyday to have at least a clean presentable face at work.

Now, here they are...

My Foundation: None

My Mascara: Max Factor
My Blush: Sheer Cover
My Day Cream: Aveeno
My Lipstick: Bare Essentials
My Essential Beauty Product: Proactiv
My favorite Make-up product: Sheer Cover
My Perfume: L by Gwen, Romance by RL, Gucci, CKIn2U
My Nails: Anise
My Feet: Anise
My hands: Victoria Secret, Bath & Body Works
Women I admire for their beauty: Nicole Kidman, Jessica Parker
Women with the best Sense of Style: Nicole Kidman, Jessica Alba
My ultimate dream: To meet God
My favorite fashion Publication: Cosmopolitan

Now I am curious if these pretty friends of mine have beauty secrets.
Tagging: Gie, Kim, Mica, Hailey, Kate, Eds, Em & Lutchi

Excercise..Be Wise!

Tonight, I'm here again in front of my computer blogging. I'm so guilty of not exercising regularly. Before, I used to dance in the morning before I go to work. Funny but that's the only way I can have time to flex my muscles and be active. Last year, I started to go to the gym but I got lazy and work came in the way so I just stopped.

Anyway, to those who are able to maintain or make it a point to maintain an exercise routine, I am so impressed. Everybody knows that exercise is good for the body and actually makes you happy. So what are the benefits of exercise? These are the things I believe are the benefits.

* Increase strength
* Longevity
* fight chronic disease and health conditions
* maintain healthy weight
* relieve stress
* more self-confidence
* slow aging

So, we should get up and moving. I should walk tomorrow or go to the gym. I don't know, I'm just so lazy these days. Bad, bad, bad...See the picture below. I, for sure, wouldn't want to be like the person in the car if ever I have a pet.

Cordless vacuums

Have you ever been in a situation where visitors come unannounced and that you have to scramble to get the house cleaned and vacuumed? And you mutter to yourself that you should have done it way before so you could have avoided such embarrassing situation?

Here in the US, at least people call or inform you first that they are coming. I'm still not good though. I have been thinking about buying a cordless vacuum not only for the use in the house but also for the car. We have two vacuums actually but they're heavy and not very versatile. And I'm sure they eat a lot of electricity because of the size and the weight. I want something that I can carry and use everywhere without me worrying of tripping over cords, weight and energy consumption. A vacuum with an Energy Star approval so I know that they guarantee the use of less energy whatever the percentage is.

Now I've heard about Dirt Devil from a friend at work. She actually bought one. When she told me, I hesitated to check about it because again, I want to avoid high electricity bills. Or maybe, I'm just lazy and making a lot of excuses in order not to buy the product? Whatever the reason is, I didn't but now I want to know more.

Timeshare

When we went to Orlando weeks ago, we stayed at the Bonnet Creek Resort. I and my friends are very thankful to Gie for giving us the opportunity to stay there for 2 nights and 3 days through her timeshare ownership. It was very enjoyable vacation and one of the reasons why is because of the wonderful place we stayed at.

See picture attached. We were at the 8th floor of one of the condo complexes. She booked a two bedroom and two baths condo with a jacuzzi. It was like a home. We brought food supplies and a rice cooker to cook our favorite rice and meals. We didn't have to bring utensils, plates, glasses, pots and pans, toaster and other kitchen supplies because everything was all there. Aside from cooking, we had a karaoke session because the place has its own entertainment center, we washed and ironed clothes and we chatted and went online because there was available internet connection. Everything was so convenient and the place had swimming pools, gymn, internet center, mini golf and much more. There's no way to get bored there. If you are an owner, you get the quality services and amenities all free. It's so nice to have a timeshare, I just can't afford it. hehehe.. Anyways, I can dream, can't I?

The Fabric of Your Life

It's poem time again. I would like to share this one which I have found from one of my books that I sometimes read for relaxation.

The Fabric of Your Life

from Linda Zimmerman


The fabric of your life is what
Makes you what you are
Some people leave a mark
Some leave a scar.
Parents who love you
Day by day and guide
Your steps along the way.
Grandparents who love you for who you are,
Whether they live near or very far.
With brothers and sisters, you share so much.
Love and arguments are part of growing up.
Uncles and aunts, neighbors and friends,
Preachers and teachers, employers, too,
All have a part In making you, "you".
More important than all of these,
Is the one who you can call whenever you please,
Whether standing tall or down on your knees.
Out on your own, away from home,
He's closer than Mom on the phone.
His plans have been in place
Before anyone looked upon your face.
Let God guide you through each day.
He will weave a beautiful tapestry
Out of the fabrics of your life
And that tapestry is You!

SugarCRM

Ok, let's talk about techy stuff. It's good to be informed about things like this once in a while. Women are becoming powerful players in business nowadays so why not talk about things relating to business?

Now, do you know about SugarCRM? According to Corratech, an open source software consultant that installs, maintains and manages this product, it is a Customer Relations Management software. This kind of software is needed by businesses to meet its requirements on marketing, sales and support areas of the business. In other words, anything that pertains to building good relations with customers.
