Song that I love right now: ONE DAY By Charice


ONE DAY By Charice
(One day, one day, one day)
They're not gonna keep me down
They're not gonna shut me out
They're gonna do what they do, I do me
I'm moving against the crowd
I'm drowning out, way down
They're gonna do what they do I do something original
Be unforgettable
They're gonna know my name

CHORUS:
(One day) I'll make you a believer
(One day) I got this all I need is
(One day) Don't try to tell me I can't (tell me I can't) (
And now) I'm a light in the future
(Watch out) Wont stop I'm a mover
(One day) You're gonna know who I am I will fly high and free
It's my fate wait and see one day

I've been afraid before,
To reach for something more
But now I see that it's mine, I'll take it
Just go ahead and try, You're not gonna change my mind
There's no such thing as too late
Yeaaaaaahhhh!!

(CHORUS)
BRIDGE:
I'm on a mission, no longer listening
To anyone that says don't try
Sometimes you feel it, deep in your spirit
It's like a fire that won't die

(One day) Wait and see (One day) Oooh (One day) Just wait and see

CHORUS:
(One day) I'll make you a believer
(One day) I got this all I need is
(One day) Don't try to tell me I can't (ooooh)
(And now) I'm a light in the future
(Watch out) Wont stop I'm a mover
(One day) You're gonna know who I am (know who I am)
I will fly high and free It's my fate wait and see, one day

One day, one day One day, one day, one day


My Take:

I love the message of the song and the positive vibe that it gives to all those who dream. It's never too late.

Derma-Stamp Chronicles: First Session



This is the chronicle of my first ever experience with Derma-Stamping. The procedure was fast, took about 1 hour, most of the time was taken by the local anesthesia because it needed to be absorbed by my skin first before the procedure itself. After the local anesthesia was applied, plastic wrap was applied on my face to make sure that the anesthesia won’t be wiped off. The machine was turned on and I remembered my trips with the dentist. I thought that I was going to have a root canal! After a few seconds of fear (hahaha),Dermal Stamping was done. Different lengths of the needle were used on the bony parts as well as on my cheeks. Two types of serum were applied on my face, the first one was collagen and the second one I didn’t quite remember. I didn't feel any pain during the process. Derma Rolling was more painful. After the procedure, my face was all red. I took a picture of my face 2 hours after the treatment when I got home. After 24 hours my face was no longer red, and there was definite improvement in the texture and the scars were not that as pronounced as before. I will check my face again after a few more days to see if the effect will last or it’s just a temporary thing.

Derma Stamp: An Introduction

From what I've researched around the net, Derma Stamp was made by the inventor the Derma Roller, however the advantages are that Derma Stamp is less painful, more fine and provides less bruising and less downtime is needed.
I have already have Derma Roller done before and there was not that much notable difference from the first session, I also had to wait 3 days before the redness was able to subside. I have already done the first session of Derma Stamping, I will blog about it after this one. Derma Stamping was a better experience than Derma Rolling and provided a more noticeable difference even on the very first session. I would recommend Derma Stamping over Derma Rolling anytime.
I searched throughout the web and I found some useful sites with regard to Derma Roller. The main website does not really post pictures of the Derma Stamp because they are afraid that many will copy it, just like what happened to the Derma Roller, I also searched the net and did not find that much information with regard to it. Thank God my derma introduced me to the benefits of Derma-Stamp.
Here is the link to the blogsite for Dermaroller.

Here's where I saw more information with regard to Derma-Stamp.

Movie Review: Harry Potter Deathly Hallows Part 2

Since I love this movie so much and most Harry Potter fanatics have already read the book anyway. I would not be retelling the storyline. I will only be voicing out my opinions with regard to the movie.
The last installment was a fitting end to the story. It gave all that I wanted to see in the movie. However, the very last seen, where they were all grown-up, leaves a lot to be desired. I could have wished that there were other "older actors" to play them to make it more believable. The make-up that they did for the last scene, as well as the costumes were not really that good. Really now, would they really dress that way when they are parents? Really, even if I have a kid I know that I would still have some fashion sense.
Over-all I give the movie 4.5 out of 5 Popcorns.

Movie Review: Monte Carlo

The Plot
The movie centers around the main star Grace (Selena Gomez) who has just graduated from highschool, she has been saving up for a long time for a vacation in Paris along with her bestfriend Emma (Katie Cassidy), excited for the trip they were suprised when Grace's parents decided that her stepsister Maggie (Leighton Meester), should also jpin in on the trip, but as the movie progresses it shows that Grace and Maggie don't really get along that well. They go on an organized bus trip around Paris at a very fast-paced rate, not really being able to take in the sites or even have no time to finish their food! The motel that they were assigned to stay in is old and decrepit, their long-time planned Paris trip was a disaster! However, this is the time when the story takes a twist, after being soaked in the rain when their bus left them, Grace frustrated and dripping wet spontaneously went inside a lavish hotel. While inside her stepsister and bestfriend discover that she has a striking resemblance to the heiress Cordelia Winthrop Scott.
The hotel staff mistook Grace as the heiress and led her as well as her companions to the best suite inside the hotel. Suddenly, their disastrous vacation in Paris turned into a lavish get-away to Monte Carlo.
With the knowledge that Cordelia Scott will not be going to Monte Carlo to attend the fund raiser that was dedicated to her; Grace pretends to be the her (with a little prodding from her mischievous bestfriend) so that they could take advantage of the wonderful opportunity to be rich, even if it's just for a few days.
While in Monte Carlo, the ladies fall in love and find where they really want to do with their lives.

Over-all

The movie has a good storyline, Selena Gomez plays the two characters perfectly and she has a nice British accent when she becomes the heiress character, Katie Cassidy is believable as the bestfriend, I specially loved the scene where she went on a date with the price in the yacht, the dress that she wore looked great on her! However, I hard time with the character of Maggie played by Leighton Meester when she becomes loose and carefree at the end, because of the fact that I am used to seeing here play the composed and uber-rich character of Blair Wardolf in the TV series "Gossip Girl"
I liked it but it's somehow lacking in excitement because I had a feeling that I know what's going to happen next, and what I expected really did happen. I hope that there would have been more that happened between the characters Theo and Grace, it just felt like there was more screen time for romance between Maggie and her partner.

Popcorns, anyone?
I give the movie 3 out of 5 Popcorns. It's better if you just rent out the DVD instead of going to the movies for this.

Here is the trailer. Happy watching!

Just had my tooth extracted.

Had my 2nd impacted tooth extracted last Friday, May 27, 2011, around 4Pm at a nearby Dentist who has had a mucho lot of experience in his field. This is my second time around and it's still as painful as ever. Imagine, the teeth needs to be hammered out. Ouch! Right now, I'm on my 3rd day and the stitches will be removed tomorrow. I'm taking Ampicillin and some Mefenamic Acid. Good thing, hindi sya namaga. Hope it goes better as I go along, need to go to Fabella on Tuesday to check for IVT schedules.

I'm checking out the Fashion Styling course of SoFa, would like to that that class, but first I need to go to the Derma to fix my pitted face (arggh) and to finish my trainings, IVT and ECG,after that I'll start looking for a Nursing job, while I'm doing that I would like to take the Fashion Styling classes.

Amana Waterpark

Me and my family went to Amana Water park because a daughter of a renter in our building was celebrating her 19th birthday and to celebrate and because the renter won some price money from Lotto. Lucky dude! We hitched and got in for free. (Tee Hee). There were so many people with us and there was Letchon and Cake. Amana Waterpark was good. I highly recommend it if you will be bringing along your kids with you.
I have also been to Jed's Resort before and it was nothing compared to this resort. Sosyal ang Amana talaga! If you would like more information regarding the resort here is their website.

Magbalik loob sa Nursing

Para sa akin ang Nursing profession ay hindi lamang isang trabaho. Kailangan ng dedication at passion para magwa mo ng tama ang trabaho mo. KAso iyun ang una kong naging job, dahil sira-ulo ako at hindi ko alam kung ano talaga ang dapat kong gawin. Sa totoo lang na-shock ako sa hirap ng trabaho, I had to quit when I reached my 8 months as a Nurse, at tsaka nag-hihire na sila ng graduates mula sa school nila. Kasi may college of Nursing din dun sa hospital na pinagtrababauhan ko.
Dahil sa pagod, nagpahinga ako, kaso isa ko pang gustong gawin ay maging Call CVenter Agent, feeling ko kc sosyal at gusto ko man lang sana na maka-bili ng mga luho ko.
Simple lang akong tao, mahilig sa cheap na items, kasi di naman mahilig mag-shopping ang Nanay ko. Ginusto ko munang pag-bigyan sarili ko para malaman ko na din kung ano ba talaga gust ko.
After 2 years, nag-resign na ko sa Call Center, nakakasawa na, parang nalusaw utak ko sa kawalan ng gingawa at brain exercise at tumaba pa ko, kainis! Kaya 'to tambay mode ako tulad ng madami pang Registered Nurses dito sa Pilipinas. Plano kong mag take ng IVT, ECG Training, Renal Training, magpabunot ng ngipin at mag-paderma at kung pwede mag-HAAD exam bago sumabak ulit sa Ospital.Gusto kong maging handa at hindi na ma-burn out tulad ng dati. Tatapusin ko and 2 years. Dahil wala nang pag-asa dito sa Pilipinas.

Planning to go to Cebu and Bohol


Right now, I am checking on Cebu Pacific Promos for August since I am planning to go to Cebu and Bohol this coming August to celebrate me and my boyfriend's 6th Anniversary, last year for our anniversary we went to Boracay to celebrate. I am now checking on websites and blogs that feature some information regarding travelling to Cebu and Boracay. These forums have been helpful: Pinoyexchange, Girl Talk. These are the blogs that I have visited: Glimpse of Ysera, I'm a Traveler. I will also want to contact Kuya Tatsky as a tourguide for Bohol, per recommendation of PEX forumers and GTALKERS. Will get back to my blog soon, with regard to the progress.Ciao!
