Extra Virgin Olive Oil - Hair Conditioner

Did you guys know that there are actually some products in our kitchen that will actually help us enhance or improve not just our inner but also our outer beauty?

Now I haven't really tried making anything out of those kitchen related products but after watching my favorite guru in Youtube- Sharon, also known as bunmps, I have been curious about EVOO. She featured some health benefits about Extra Virgin Olive Oil. My curiosity got me into trying it out.

Hair benefit:

I have been looking for a good product that will make my hair soft. Since I have curly hair, it's really hard to maintain the curls and the softness of it. My hair is too brittle and hard. This is actually one thing that frustrates me the most. After all our hair is our CROWNING GLORY.

My sister bought one bottle a few months ago and she used up about 1/3 of it then she ignored it. I saw it a couple of weeks ago and I just grabbed it haha. Then before I went to sleep that night I put about 4 1 peso size on my palm and spread it all over my hair and scalp then I covered it with a shower cap and leaved it the whole night. The next day, I took a bath and after my hair dried up I was shocked by the result. I felt the softness of my hair. I can actually use my fingers to comb my hair which I don't normally do because of the tangles and falling hair.

It doesn't just give a deep conditioning for my hair but it also strengthens our scalp. I've been using EVOO for 2 weeks now and only a few strands of hair falls whenever I go shower. And! Last December, I dyed my hair but I wasn't really happy about the outcome of the color because I felt like it's not showing. But I noticed that EVOO intensifies the color of my hair. I can actually see the color of the dye used on my hair! AMAZING!

I love this product for my hair. I would recommend it to anyone. It's a perfect moisturizer for the hair whether curly or straight. I think I cannot live without this product. It's my new bestfriend! ;) ♥

Nivea My Silhouette

It's not a secret to people that I have been in a major weight gain for the past 4 years. As in HUGE GAIN! 

Well I do have my reasons. And reviewing for the boards is one of them. But anyway, since I don't have any reasons anymore to eat and nourish myself too much, I decided to go on a..........DIET. Yes, that dreadful word hahaha. Why I said so? Because, it means I have to cut down my intake of gooooooood (but bad) food and to kill myself with nonstop exercise/workout.

Actually, I already started. It's almost a month since I started to do some dancing here at home and not eating carbs. I replaced my carbs with guess what? SKYFLAKES! hahahaha... xD Then cereals, veggies, and fruits.

In all honesty, my very motive why I am on the verge of trimming my weight is my friends wedding (thank you Elay!! lol.). Because I am part of her entourage. I am one of her bridesmaids. Ok. I know I sound lame because it's not my wedding. I may sound like I am much more excited than her hence I am doing this, but I tell you... I have this thing for GOWNS and WEIGHT. Like, no one can make me wear that kind of clothing when I know I have some belly hanging. Lol!!!  

But anyhoo, I was at the mall yesterday and I was looking for my favorite lotion (Myra E Vita Quench) because I'm out already. When something caught my eye. That girl in a light green box hahaha. Then I read the word silhouette. It got me thinking... hmmmm... Well, I was actually planning on buying a firming lotion because I don't want  my skin to look all saggy if ever I do loose weight. My initial plan was to buy also a Nivea product - Nivea Firming lotion. But since this gel- Nivea My Silhouette slims and firms at the same time, I bought this instead.

So.............. I thought, maybe this will help me make my transformation (lol what a word) faster. Now I'm not really a fan of slimming gel/lotions but what the heck, I will try it anyway. The only thing is it costs a bit expensive. It costs a friggin 520 pesos! @.@ Right....

 

I was inspired by her :D thanks Kim K!

Back :D

Why hello there again blogspot! :)

My oh my! I've been MIA for awhile. That sucks!

I miss blogging. I have a lot to rant about but I've been really lazy the past days. I mean I wanna make an entry about some few topics of my life but then again I just did not do it.

So what is up with me? hmmmmm....

Barely 2 weeks to go and it's gonna be Oath taking day! Yey! I'm so excited to get my license. OMGeeee!! Like it's gonna be official. I'm gonna be a Registered Medical Technologist. Wooohooo!!!

I'm really happy about all this because for one this is an answered prayer from God. Even though it took along time for me to get it, I know God did still listen to all my "pangungulit" hehe...

I already bought my dress last week and my shoes yesterday. I was kind of not inlike with the pair I bought though :( I had my faves on a few shoes but then most of them were either sold out or has no size for me :( too bad huhuhu...

Oh by the way, I've been listening to this song today. Like I kept on repeating this on my playlist. 

It's soooooooo soooooooooo CUTE!!! I really love the melody. Listening to it helped brighten my day. ♥ 

I'm kind of nervous at the same time. After I get my ID, the next day, I'm planning on applying for a job at this private laboratory where a friend works. I hope their company is hiring still. But I'm kind of doubting because I have some engagements at out church :(

April 24 - retreat for the kids @ Ecopark

May 14-16 - Summer retreat of the leaders @ Cavite

sometime on April or May also - Seminar in Gensan

I've been looking forward for all those activities since last year and I'm afraid I can't go to any of those. 

Honestly speaking, Yes, I am overwhelmed by my passing of the board exam, but then again a part of me is afraid. Afraid that if ever I get a job, it might affect my going to church. As a Christian, my most top priority of course is God. How I can glorify him and all. And I know that I've been really blessed since I learned about my salvation. Like to be able to work as a Sunday School teacher for our church. Or to hear the sermons of our evangelist which helps me grow and mature as a person and as a Christian. Or to have a fellowship with all my churchmates. To be able to experience all this is just so amazing. I've been active since last year. Oh wow! I just realize that this coming April will be my one year as a Christian. WOOOOOOOOOOOOW! Now I am really really excited! But anyway, I know God has his purpose. I trust him. He will make a way for me not to lessen my time for him :) Thank you and Love you God! :)

Oh yeah I just wanna share :D 

I AM IN LOVE!!  With God of course and.................... SECRET! hahahaha!!!! 

The picture above explains what I'm feeling right now :)

Anyways, I'll end this now. This post is a bit long hahaha. God bless everyone! TC!! ♥ :)

You and I

I have been in love with the song You and I by Park Bom unnie ever since I heard it last year. So I have been looking for a good engish version of it. Then I stumbled upon this video.

OMG!!! If only a guy can sing that exact same lyrics (Taeyang?..... I WISH!).... haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!



{Verse 1}
You, are always on my mind
because everytime i think about your eyes
im fallin down
girl, i feel so nervous when your around
and You, dont ever wanna see you cry
cause girl, you know i'll always be
beside you to pick you up
girl, im here to always dry your eyes

{pre-chorus}
And I just maybe another guy
I may not have exactly what your looking for
but girl i'm writing this song for you
Tonight, i'm lost with your eyes
My worries go away when I look at your smile
I'll always be here for you

{chorus}
You and I together
it just feels so right
say goodbye to you, i'll never
even when the times get tough
i'll stay with you forever
You and I together baby
no one else compares
Say goodbye to you, i'll never
I want the world to know
that your my only girl

{verse 2}
I know, we've had our ups and downs
just like everybody else but girl dont worry
cause our love it stronger than anyones
You know, i'll always be by your side
Just holler girl and i'll be there 24/7
I promise that i'll be right there baby

{back to pre-chorus & chorus}

{bridge}
When the stars are up in the sky
And when i feel lonely i close my eyes
I imagine you next to me
telling me everything alright

Even though there maybe better days
We'll still be together cause
Your the only one and i'll be there for you baby

You and I together
it just feels so right
say goodbye to you, i'll never
even when the times get tough
i'll stay with you forever
You and I together baby
no one else compares

{back to chorus}

I want to rant about something. But then at the same time I feel like not to.

Swear! This night is the worse night. EVER!

Everything is just so not good.

I hope when the sun rises later it will reverse back to a FEEL GOOD ATMOSPHERE.

(late post) REGISTERED MEDTECH!

Last Sunday, I had a breakdown at church. None of my family knows this. I think it was pressure and stress mixed together. I had a fellowship with my brothers and sisters though. Talked to sister Elmie. Had a counseling with Evan JC. It helped in a way. But deep inside me there's still that fear. Fear of disappointing my parents. Fear of another failure in my life. Fear of God not hearing me out. Everything was just so nostalgic. I was very emotional.

But all of them were right. I admit that at that very moment my faith in God was kind of weak. I should have trusted him more. I think I was just at the point of my life were in I almost gave in (again). I became feeble about the Board Exam. Yes I took the board exam for Medical Technology last March 2-3, 2010. For the 3rd time actually. Yes I also failed twice already. And taking it the 3rd time was actually my last chance. Because if I fail once again, I will have to take a refresher course for one year to another school to be able to take the board again. I guess its another reason also.

Usually the result will be release for at least 3 working days. So all of us who took the exams were all expecting to see the result by Saturday morning. But, it did not happened. So it adds up to another anticipation and anxiety.

Then come Monday. My mother and I looked at the site of bomboradyo and inquirer. Say lunch time I guess. But still no result. So we both went to her room and took our siesta. Then when I woke up, I went to get my cellphone at my brother's room because I left it there. Then  a text message from a friend took me by surprised. Like...... arghhhhh! I can't even explain it. it says "congrats (with a smiley face)."

My reaction was just "Why would she say congrats when the result hasn't even been released?"

Then I saw my brother googling for the site of inquirer. I was in a nervous wreck I tell you. I felt my body get numb. Like I couldn't move. Then there it is. The site of  inquirer. It made me more scared. Then he clicked the word exam. Then we both saw "Medical Technologist 2010 March 08". He clicked it. Then he ctrl + F to find my name the easy way. I couldn't look at it. Like both my hands were covering my face. Then I turned around and saw the green color. And my brother said "YES." Then suddenly I cried. And I was shouting. I went down to tell my mom while yelling "Mommy... Mommy... Mommy..." I can't remember how many times I've said Mommy. But my cousin told her first that's why when I saw her she was crying already. I could not forget that reaction of my mom. It was epic. Like for the first time, I really felt that she's proud for me.

This morning, I saw my name at Manila Bulletin. Man! It's crazy! Like is this for real? I've been waiting for this moment and it's now here. God gave it to me. FINALLY! hahaha.

I just wanna say thank you to all the people who never gave up on telling me to try and try and try. To never give up. Thank you guys for your support. For my churchmates who backs me up through prayers. My parents, mom! you're the best.

I am now a certified RMT! wooooo!

And to my colleagues at Pioneer, CONGRATULATIONS TO US GUYS!!! our sleepless nights didn't go to waste!

See you at our Oath Taking!

xoxo,
Ruby Ann Crystal M. Colinayo, RMT (I should get use to it hehe)

Dream Day Wedding-Viva as Vega

Finally! I finished it!

I have been meaning to play this game for soooooooooo soooooooooooo loooooooooong and I did played with it yesterday.

I had fun. wooo!

It was hard. It gave me one heck of a headache I tell you.

I don't realize this until I finished the game but while I was going through each level-solving puzzles, matching pieces, finding objects, etc, I was also decorating the reception site of Kelsey and David's (the main characters lol) wedding.But that's not it. The main thing is, I realized that what I was actually putting up is also my dream wedding. Like, everything you see on the picture above is what I wanted for my OWN WEDDING.

There's something magical about it.

The magic of LOVE? hahaha. Maybe.

But I can't even explain it. IT IS SO PERFECT. IT'S WHAT I WANT!
