On Fashion: Jessica Stein & Olivia Palermo

via citizencouture.com

I am really a fan of polished looks. My current fav photos are these two.

Can you see the details of Jessica's outfit? I love how the black vertical lines on the dress is a little bit wider than the whites. I love the details of the sunglasses. Her manicure looks perfect and the earpiece just captures your attention doesn't it?

For Olivia, what I love most is the color combination of the top and the jacket. A little (okay,huge) sparkle really completed the look.

T-shirt is a bit ill fitting to me. If I was skinnier,it would be great but it doesn't match pear-shaped girls so well.

'100' (from 0 to 100 years in 150 seconds) from Filmersblog on Vimeo.

I wanted to share with you guys this amazing video of people faces ranging from a few months old to a hundred years old....What I notice is that faces up to age 30+ is what I consider as "young"..after that the wrinkles start kicking in. Not all people are the same though, and everyone is different. And even though we can stay young at heart, the universe guarantees that everyone grow old. We get wiser (most of the time) and we make way for the new. We are like flowers, we start as a seed and eventually sprout up, mature into a full grown flower, sprout out a few seeds and eventually we will wither and die.

I'm turning 21 this year and in my mind, I have 10 years of "youth" left. The reality of wrinkles is horrifying to be honest. But the people in the video seem pretty smiley so I guess it wont be so bad when the time comes. The point is, youth is short. One way that I would like to preserve it is by taking as much photos as I possibly can, the memories and the faces. And another way is by taking care of myself so that when I'm old, I can continue to be healthy. And experience as much things as I can.

Kawaii Pet Megu?!!

I am currently obsessed with this iPhone app that I randomly searched almost a week ago. I was looking for "Pet" in the App Store and came across this. Obsessed is an understatement. I check my Megu the moment I wake up from my sleep. I no longer think of breakfast, I think of Megu now.

Anyways, thanks to my Dad, I have succeeded with one of my goals! I have finally got my room painted. It is not as I had envisioned but its much better than before and it just made me realize that I have to improve my wall-color picking. I love it now (probably because my drawer has arrived as well, so happy to be reunited with it. Why oh why can't Ikea be in KK? I love furniture a lot)

My next goal is to up my exercise and healthy eats more, as I have sinked into an unproductive lifestyle. April and May was such a busy month for me, I had so much activities, so much goals, and now its like kaput. Thinking of getting a job but then I'll have a job in July or August so I guess I'll take this time to improve myself in other ways. So! Since I got my blender, I can blend my smoothies now. Problem is I don't have access to the grocery store easily. Public transport again..hate it so much. Sigh..I'll just have to concentrate little by little..one step at a time. Speaking of that, I just got my last semester results...4 flat! So proud of myself!

Wasn't able to get these...sads

Reasons to Drink Lemon Water

How I start my day is very important to me, because to me its like a new beginning. A fresh new start. I always look forward to breakfast, its one of the things I think about when I go to bed (other than trying to end the day with positive thinking, a little prayer for my family and all the people in the world who needs it and some stretching to keep flexible).

Just recently, to add to my morning breakfast, I've started having a simple cup of lemon water (preferably warm). Here are a few reasons of mine:

1. Get my dose of Vitamin C and potassium to boost my immune system.
2. To get a better alkalized body. Lemons are acidic on their own but inside our bodies they turn alkaline. We humans should strive for an alkaline body for good health.
3. Helps loosen toxic from the digestive tract.
4. Clears skin with the help from its Vitamin C.
5. A natural diuretic. Helps you to clear all the toxins in the body faster.

Such a simple thing like lemon water everyday could help with so much with your well being. There are actually more benefits but reminding myself of these 5 every once in awhile is good enough for me.

I also like to add a bit of chia seeds to my water for extra healthy fats!

Guide to Green Smoothie

Like you, I was one of the people who didn't have a clue what green juice or green smoothie is and why everyone else was so into it. Since I only had a blender, green smoothie was the only option for me (but I did try for an occasion to make green juice by straining the smoothie with a coffee strainer haha took me quite some time). I've only made it about 3 times so far because unfortunately I had to pack my blender and cargo it back home so I'm excited to finally get my hands on it again!

What made me actually start trying green smoothies was because a lady did a body test on my coursemates and I during our trip to experience a "business meeting" of entrepreneurs. That lady owns a health/slimming company of sorts. So anyway, one thing I can tell you is that they actually have a machine that can test your body age and found out that my body is 29 years old! Others who were the same age as me were 18-22 years old in body age *CRYYY*

 

Another thing she checked for us was the Visceral Fat,which is also known in the picture as Intra-abdominal fat. It is the fat that surrounds the organs. Both skinny and overweight people can have visceral fat, overweight being the most likely. So anyways, we got it checked, and everyone else got 2 and mine was at 4!! I asked her what was the best number to have and the obvious answer was 1. Does that mean I'm more prone to Diabetes and Heart Diseases..especially in the future? Shit.

So after that, I made a decision to start trying green smoothies because I have a realization that I have not been eating a lot of vegetables. Fruits? Yes. Vegetables? No. Funny how after we find out things about our bodies that we actually try to do something. 

My first green smoothie had leeks and tomatoes in it among other things...I had to force myself to consume the whole glass. Anyway, I got used to it and I constantly experimented to find the perfect taste. One thing that I noticed was green poop and better sleep (I almost didnt want to wake up to study for exams because sleep was great!). To me, green smoothies are a great way to incorporate greens in our diet and also a healthy way to get micronutrients.
