First Wedding Anniversary

So, one year ago I married my first and last love.

It wasn’t a romantic wedding I dreamt of. No fireworks,no fountains of wine, no grand venue, no fancy food and dresses, it was a simple one. But I was honest with my feelings and I’m more than content that this celebration brought our friends & families together. And that was far more precious than any material things in the world.

I know how tempting or easy it was to plan out the details of your married life while you were boyfriends/girlfriends, fiance or fiancee or in an observer view and not as a participant of it (we should not do this or that, we should go here and there, only this or nothing, endless rules, do’s and don’ts, you name it) but my past year being married reminds me, yet again, that you should be open to changes of plans and tons of things not coming your way.

Part of the gift of being married is to accept everyone else for who they are (for real) and to truly discover who you are and where you stand by being challenged from time to time. And the challenge is always greater when we care.

“Marriage is the union of two forgivers” as the famous quote goes and I absolutely agreed on.

Today we have so much to celebrate,

Xoxo

Irresistible Me Diamond Flat Iron Review: Is it worth it?

I started using flat irons since I was 18 years old (well, that was 12 years ago?) and I’m amazed at how the industry of hair straighteners had come. Man, I think we're missing out on some great deal. Flat iron over the years, We all know the humble beginnings of hair comb or some may call them hair thongs which are made of two rods heated to straighten the hair. I never get to use this one as I was introduced to the second generation of hair straighteners and that was using a standard home clothes iron. Nah, I mean the basic flat irons made with metal plates and few heat settings. Not until the early 2000s when I saw this model with ceramic plates that most people use today. Ceramic is by far the most popular material for this product as it is both inexpensive and actually safer compared to the clothing iron or heating rods back in days. Depending on your hair type, ceramic plates are believed to lock in moisture and protect hair color. But with a lot of this model

Weekend Well Spent

Last week was kind of breezy to the point where I thought it was already Friday when I’m only in the middle of my week, which is odd because when I’m excited for something and I’m looking forward to it every single day, it makes my whole month moved into a slow motion and I’m like bored to death. Gladly, my weekend didn’t pass by so sudden that I got to enjoy it with people dearest to my heart to the fullest. I love weekends so much that I decided not to care about laundry or cleaning the house (sort of) but just spend the whole two days enjoying the cold weather which means more sleeps and longer walks to the mall. Last weekend, we ate breakfast in our PJ’s, had brunch in the street food shops, enjoyed salmon and some surprisingly affordable tasty Japanese cuisine, scored some discounts on baby clothes and winter shirts, did some window shopping, had a half dozen Krispy Kreme glazed donuts for dessert and just cuddled and sang nursery rhymes at the top of our lungs.

Yep, when major sales popped out, I'll stop what I'm doing to catch a glimpse on which of those pieces look good on me.
