Fabulous find Beauty Box; 1st review

Burt's Bees Nourishing milk & honey Body Lotion

Claims; 24 hours moisturization

My say?
It does work as it said! It might not feel as luxurious as some other body lotion might gives you, but having dry scaly skins like mine (yes I lack moisturization. Bad me!) you don't need luxurious feelings!

1st thing I noticed was that it is fast to absorb. One of the things I look for in a body lotion as I hate the fact that I have to keep rubbing it in until it absorbs.

2nd thing I noticed was that my skin wasn't scaly for days after using it once! That was last week. I do think my skins feel softer too. Teehee.

The 1st and last time I used it ( after luxuriously slapping it on my body, legs, necks and arms) there are still some left so I kept it inside a container. Tonight I used it again, and I still have enough for the body, legs & feet! Did I mention it comes in a 7ml packaging ? Hah! Yes it's that small!

The only thing I disliked about it is the smell. It is too strong of a smell and it's the kind of smell I hated on any other products. However, when I woke up the next morning the sickening strong smell turns into a sweet acceptable quite nice smell. Haha. So I guess it's okey.

On another note, I am thanking Fabulous Finds for such wonderful service given! I love the idea of having beauty box delivered to me every month! At least now I have a reason to babble more on my blog.

Till then...

XOXO

Of Eiffel Tower & Ribbons

No. I did not went to Paris. Unfortunately. *sigh*

Instead I got myself this scarf with an eiffel tower print on it which I totally dig!

I was feeling fancy too today that I decided to wear prints over prints with other detailings on.

It might be a tad too much thus the reason I kept my accessories to the minimum.

To be honest, I rarely dress up which explains why I rarely...no..actually never attempted a self-fashion post before.
I guess I am a lil bit vain today.

Oh well.

Child.

A child. Something that most married couple wished for.

What I won't understand, refused to understand is that why abandoned them when they're diagnosed with cerebral palsy or down syndrome or just mere delayed development?

They should have been grateful that at least your child will live. Quality of life? Yes, lower but that's the purpose of rehabilitation. Be grateful you could spend time and love them. Be grateful that you don't have to know they're going to be dead sooner that you expected.

I'll take the example of muscular dystrophy, the prognosis is death. Slowly, your once normal active child will become crippled. At one point, they won't be able to do anything. I can't imagine the feelings of parents experiencing this.

A child being left at the hospital because they're crippled. The dad sue the hospital and left the child. The mum? death during childbirth.

A dad looking after his delayed child. The mum left them for another guy.

What a world we're living in eh?

InsyaAllah. I pray that I won't be this kind of parents.

Allah S.W.T won't challenged us more than our capabilities. So, the fact is that we ARE capable of going through all this.

XOXO

Thank Allah for ALL the Blessings in the World.

Alhamdullilah...


InsyaAllah I'll be graduating soon enough, given that I passed all my subjects this semester. *Praying that I do*

So what's my plan? 

Let's see... this weekend I'll be in Rasta TTDI promoting my online boutique there. Do come and have a look! Not just mine, but 69 other booths spread on 2 days! 

10th of July I'll be travelling to Johor working/volunteering - whichever fits better - for Inter-university Sports Carnival. I'll be there until the 20th. Coming back just in time for Ramadhan :) 

Preparation to find a job/transition to work life etc etc... NONE! 

Now I know, most or at least some of my classmates had started drafting their resumes. Some of them had even targeted where do they want to apply for work. Some had decided to just wait. Some had also decided to not work or steer out of physiotherapy line. In short, they had made up their mind. Give the future a thought. 

Well, me? Contrary to the old me who had always imagine/dream about the future. I find myself staying in the present as much as I can instead of planning ahead. I haven't start a thing on my resume. I haven't re-organized whatever it is that matters when it come to job-hunting and of course I don't even know where to start or where to apply. Different people in my life have different hopes for me. Sometimes I felt that I might let them down if I gave too much hopes. 

People had been popping the Q (by people I meant my parent's friends, my aunts my cousins etc etc) : U had finished studying right? When are you graduating? Where are you going to work??

Honestly people, I don't have an answer. My answer will come once the results are out. I am NOT being negative. I am just trying to be optimistic. I am scared to death for my own future. 

Rambling again am I?

XOXO
