Ambigram

It's 4am! And I feel like posting something.

For those who don't know what an ambigram is. Here's a definition from www.ambigram.com. "An ambigram is a typographical creation that presents two or more words within the same physical space."

Can't give you straight link to Wikipedia so you could know more about it, cause you know Obama's administration is up with SOPA and PIPA drama. (Won't give an opinion about it for now.) Anyway, check out this ambigram of my first name and my boyfriend's last name.

See?! How cool is that? Got this from an app on my friend's iphone4. It was funny cause the app gave this good ambigram right after my second try and the app couldn't make an ambigram for the owner's name. Bwahaha! I love you Kim! My friend, Kim also blogs. Click this to view her posts. J

Hello Coco!

Coco is love. J

Wait. First of all he’s not named after Coco Martin. And second of all you say it as Kowh-Kowh like Coco Chanel. Okay? J So we’re good with that now? But I’m not anti Coco Martin, he’s obviously cute (Literally. I mean he’s “vertically challenged”. Haha!) and lisp! And I find lisp guys cute. Seriously. J

I have a new pup! Yay! J J J

He’s a Christmas gift from my 5 year-old inaanak, Rain. Yeah, from my inaanak. I know it’s totally ironic. And to make things worse, I didn’t give Rain even a single gift last Holiday Season. Reality check: I just graduated and that suggests that I’m broke. Haha! But I gave her gifts during her birthdays. So? Does that sound as a good excuse? J


That’s Yuna! Coco’s sister. I so love her but Rain won’t give her away. L

Let me explain. Last Christmas, Coco and Yuna’s mom was hit by a motorbike and was dead on the spot. Now you get a little about the story. I stand as the concern and loving foster parent. J Plus! A matter of fact when their mom gave birth, Rain and her family already decided to give one for me! They know how much I love puppies.

Coco enjoying his bubble bath!

See how cute he is! J J J I haven’t shopped any of dog stuffs yet because again: I’m broke. Haha! Poor puppy we just used Tresemme shampoo and conditioner for him. That product is not tested for animals but.. we just did! Haha. Coco was safe after the shower. Don’t worry. J

Coco is a mix shih tzu. That means he’s not pure of his breed. He’s 1 month old when I had him. November 9 is his birthday. That’s what Rain’s mom, Ate Ivy told me. He licks my toes a lot and he’s very mischievous. He loves to nibble around our flip flops and my uncle’s shoes. He argues with a ball of yarn(like a cat does) when I don’t feel like playing with him. He’s too playful and sometimes I could not stand his energy.

Will buy a dachshund next month! Yay! J Advance thanks to my bro, Philip!

What do you think will be a good name for a male pup?

Drop some suggestions please!

I’M LIKE A ZIT WITH A FACE

Okay. I woke up, checked myself in the mirror, then I knew it’s not a good day. Good morning Kate! Hello you zit! I hate you! So, I have this newly popped up zit on my chin that I can’t help but get annoyed with its big size. I’m not over reacting. Swear. When I say it’s big, it’s totally big. Plus, it has another baby pimple on the side. Grr. I remembered an episode of Disney’s Dave the Barbarian. It was a stupid/crazy/hilarious cartoon. Yeah, the type of shows that I grew up with. So Dave’s sister, Candy had a zit which she was dying to get rid of. It was so overly big and the zit could actually talk. It was a exaggerated magical show and it's cartoons. Hello? And their born to be a failure wizard uncle tried to spell the zit out. And he failed as expected. Then tada! The zit came alive! Haha! The twist: Candy and the zit fell inlove with each other. They actually had a very sweet dance scene. Can you imagine? Haha! Hilarious, right? That was an epic zit!

Enough with the stupid love story, how do you take good care of your face?

I started using facial wash when I was in 6th grade. Yeah, I know it’s kinda early. I had my older sister and cousin that’s why I was like on a rush to grow up! Haha. Pond’s played a big part on my tween life. I tried a lot of their products. From facial wash, foam, scrub to cream. I started Clean & Clear Oil Control Compact Powder when I was in 2nd year highschool. It wasn’t my choice. My dad always “mis-shopped” Clean & Clear Pore Cleanser to their Compact Powder. It happened like 5 times I guess. I used to list down my needs every week and dad always go shopped all of it. I stopped using the powder in 3rd year because I realized that my skin wasn’t really the oily type but I always brought along with me Clean & Clear Oil-absorbent Papers. In senior highschool, Pond’s introduced their glitter powder and I loved it. So I regularly used it. Remember their loose powders? There were 3 kinds of it, the glittery blue, blushy pink and the beige one. I think the product was pulled out year 2007. I was an avid user of Clean & Clear Daily Pore Cleanser ever since highschool to college. I admit I was a fan of their products. Click the link to know more of Clean & Clear.

Thank God I have closed pores so I didn’t have much problems with pimples and stuffs. My concern was just little blackheads on my nose. After washing my face I put on Pond’s Daily Cream, the green one. Dirrrty fact: I wash my face only once a day. I’m really not maarte. And I’m kinda lazy. I was fourth year college when I found out that Clean and Clear pulled out my beloved Pore Cleanser. I had difficulty finding the next product to use. I had little red rashes when I used Garnier and so with Olay and St. Ives Apricot Scrub made my skin dry. I was afraid to use other products because my skin reacts to hypoallergenic products. How ironic. Plus! As much as possible I don’t use soap on my face. Yes, I say no to soap. It makes skin dry.

Here’s my beauty regimen:

· Tap water. My derma recommends cold water. She said it’ll keep your skin young. Stop using your heater. Don’t wait for your skin to go aging. J

· St. Ives Apricot Scrub Gentle Care. It suits me best.

· Watsons Nose Strip with Green Tea. I use it like once a month.

· Myra E Moisturizing Cream with SPF 15. A friend told me that St. Ives Moisturizer is good, I wanted to try it out but it doesn’t have any SPF. My derma told me to use sunblock everyday and to apply it 15-20 mins before exposing your skin under the heat of the sun. Let your skin completely absorb the product.

· Johnson and Johnson’s Baby Powder. My derma recommends it. Honestly. J

· Careline Tomato Blush with Vitamin C. It’s cheap and it fits my skin tone very well.


And that’s it! I told you I’m not maarte. Mlnw.
