I was born with the black and weird hair. Unlike the other girls in town, my hair was always kind of weird. My mom said I was born different. I was tired of my hair. Other girls’ hair looks smooth and straight. My hair grows like a groom, they never been smooth and lovely straight.
The funny thing about hair is they just grow their own, completely out of control. Shampoo, comb, hat, nothing can hide or change their disorder. You can image when I try to wear long hair and tie them in a pg tail. They are hardly to call a pig tail, neither a horse tail. Every signal hair just obstinately grows its own way.
I am lady now. Beauty means a lot to me. And thank god, there are so many fancy gadgets on the market, I can get my hands on to cure my stubborn hair. The best part of my life is sitting in the front of mirror and deal with my hair. Everyone keeps their cosmetics chest, I have the biggest chest to store my hair accessories.

My hair used to be greasy. I tried a lot of way to get rid of the oil covering hair. I think you might have no idea how oily they are. I bathed at the night and washed my hair. The next morning, I stared to comb my hair, I could my see and feel may hair stick into several strips. They looked really ugly. I changed my shampoo regularly, just because it could not get rid of the shinny hair. You can image how mass my hair looked in the afternoon, like I did not bath in a week.
I tried sinking and massaging my scalp with lemon water. I was smelt sour for last summer. I still dreamt lemon could fix my scalp or my hair. How stupid I was. I had the same hair problem just like my aunt. I was afraid to see myself look like what she did, bold and hairless. How terrible was that for a middle aged woman. I was so scared to find out one day morning when I wake up, I would turn up like that.
I putted on my hands on everything hoping someday I could cure my hair. And I did work. After wet through a lot of hard work, I finally realized that oily hair didn’t appear with no reason. These small pieces of dandruff were the real killers. These pieces of dandruff were traced by tiny bacteria which my scalp produce enough amount oil to protect my fragile scalp skin while might lead the loss of hair due to the fighting. Today I am using the best shampoo for my hair doesn’t not only cure my itchy scalp, but only effectively prevents the massive oil producing.

Keep shopping and keep looking. That is my husband always saying to me. I moved to our first house half year. We got everything untouched. I really look for something special for our two bathrooms.
While bathroom vanities are the first we have to shop, but shop around the town, we are totally isolated by limited choice from several bathroom stores.
When we really decide to buy something, it must pass the quality. My husband and I ask something high quality for a life time usage. Read the rest of this entry →

When I was small, my mom used to have a small box to keep all our medical supplies. Each time, I cut myself; my mom quickly reached that box and had me wrapped. But lot of times, we went off the supplies. I can remember lot of ways, mom tried to clean my wounds, wrap the cut. I was full of tears, and she always kept saying, next time it was going to be easy.
Today, I also keep a similar box just like my mom’s. But my one is smaller, because I know I handle the emergency times more easily. If there is emergency time, I just make a phone call or send an email; I know my fist aid will be on my door in a short time. Read the rest of this entry →

I like to travel around in the spare time. But my husband and I have been working so hard. Travelling around and planning all the details are quite hard work. If you plan for a leisure time, you probably want to be lazy, or just sit back and enjoy your holiday. Me too, I totally want to relax myself from being hard working. Read the rest of this entry →

Every day we have been working so hard to write something of ourselves. Some pieces of our writing won’t last that long considering the mass copying and recopying from something we have been creating.
Writing is not a destiny, it is a way to express, is a journey of our life. To share something on the internet is our proud of being alive and happy. Internet connects you and me, but won’t keep everything in between.
An empire of something of us may quickly destroy in a second. Our creations have been copied and found in every corners of the world. It is the kind of internet disease, start to spread. Read the rest of this entry →

Marble tiles are the last century riches to show off their wealth. Now everyone has options to be riches when it is up to serious house flooring décor.
Eco friendly wooden themed flooring is first option for the riches. But wait a second; did I say everyone can be like riches when it is up to their flooring? That is true.
Real wooden floor seems so dull and cheap. The most beautiful wooden themed flooring is the laminated flooring. They are rich in colors which are more close to the nature colors of wood.
They last longer than any tiles. And laminate flooring is shinning more than ceramic tiles, wooden flooring, or marble tiles. Their smoothing surface, a touch of wood’s gold glory, wooden natural waves really offer the finest touch of your house. Read the rest of this entry →

Some many people are enthusiastic about football. They are sport fans. I am not that kind of passion with football.
I love watching good looking guys running wild on the filed. So many football stars are going to appear on this year FIFA South African World Cup. I am sure we can enjoy watching great football games.
Professional football supplies are not easily to be seen at regular sport shops. I am sure few professional football kits are sold outside the internet. They are hard to get. But for crazy fans who are possessive of such football kits, also have very less chance to get their hand on these precious football kits. Read the rest of this entry →

Ladies love muscular guys. It is natural reaction. Perhaps guys should get themselves sharper look by building more muscle.
That requires a lot of hard work. Muscle doesn’t grow in one night. It is long time training and hard work at gym. Ladies, don’t be so ridiculous about your boyfriends. We all know how to lose a thin layer fat on our bellies. And the same principle applies to guys.
Massive training and good supplies of nutrition is the essential for stimulating the growth of muscle.
It reminds me of the supplements of nutrition. Going for a diet also needs a lot of potential supplements. It is not just supplements, supplements can do a lot of work improve the body to get a visible results for scientific muscle gaining. Read the rest of this entry →

It is impressive that US economy going back to its old trail. House market is recovering after the crisis. Look around the US market today, lot of investors won’t feel pretty worried about their investment going to the property market.
Europe in the other side feels their economy problems. Euro is shaking its steady world currency place. Since the Poland government corruption, Euro is sinking too much. If we look the market today, there seem more unsolved problems existed in the Europe market. Read the rest of this entry →

My first pet is a dog. Peppy is a very naughty dog, I have to say. Dog like peppy is supposed to train like a hunting dog. So I felt a little guilty to keep her around the house. Peppy used to chew a lot, from our couch to our garden logs. Peppy just destroyed them all. We bought her a great pinewood kennel and several wool blankets. She chew the blanket to piece scatted all the yard. We had no choice but bought her a solid cage. When she got naughty, we putted her inside the cage and kept her calm. We were so afraid someday she could hurt somebody with her chewing and biting habit. The cage did help her a lot, but we just felt so guilty about keeping her from what she was. Finally, she got her new house, a big farm. She can run wildly as she always wished.
My second pet is a cute brown hair guinea Pig. My tenant’s dog Jacky just won’t let it go. Jacky is so jealous dog, I knew one day, she may kill my guinea pig. So I put him into the spacey cage. He got enough room to play and enjoy the sunshine. First, he was so scared of the Jacky. He will do the long way running into his tiny house seeking the safety. For quite a long time, he found nothing can hurt or even scare him. He just laid on his back and slept on his stomach totally ignoring the Jacky’s angry barking.
My third pets are kittens. We got several kittens coming and going. We kept them in the safe and playable cages full of their loved toy mice and thread balls. Read the rest of this entry →

If kitchen is the heart of the house, I would think bathroom would be the face. My mom used to use the bathroom as the extra storage room for our cleaning utilities plus dirty and smelly laundry. I really hated that bathroom.
Now it is good to have my own bathroom. I think bathroom is the best part of the whole house. So it must be well looked after. You don’t want the odd smell everywhere. People who go for bathroom should feel fresh and relaxed.
So that is what I considered for my bathroom, the pure and fresh look. Every surface and each corner felt like close to nature but super hygiene. When up choosing the quality bathroom vanities, they must be qualifying my standards. Read the rest of this entry →

I remembered these words from my grandma. She was a very tidy and neat lady I ever known. She used to clean the windows every Sunday. I always remembered these sparkling and crystal clean glasses. And the beautiful sunshine shined on my face through these kissable glasses.
I never saw my neighbors or even my mom to clean glasses with soft and white tissues. Of course, at that time, quality tissues were just part of life luxury. My grandma used her best effort to keep her house look nice and lovely. I somehow didn’t inherit all her cleanness. But I do love keep my place cleaned in my own way. It makes me feel fresh and happy. Dust and dirty may disturber your mental affection. Scientists used to be say: overweight people have a great chance of living of dirty. When the first time my friend came to visit our new brought house, she tried persuade me to put new tiles for the kitchen. But I thought they are great condition just need to be cleaned up and shine. And I was right; she told me my kitchen was beautiful on my moving-in.

I was pretty sure that two years ago, we stayed at our own 3 bedrooms house, our monthly electricity bill is 250 bucks. And we used as much as we wanted. And you will be shocked, if you know we are renting a small flat now and consuming 450bucks electricity every month. And we don’t open the water heater as much, only we need to shower. That is it. Oh I forgot to mention, we had one bath and one shower. That is not fair. I have to say. The electricity rate is sky rock high, and the landlord has the worst electricity meter who charges the highest rate in the city.
I hate to waste energy, while we don’t use that much compared to other family. We are lower than the average I have to say. I think if I can use less, others should learn to save. Because the higher the demand, the higher of the rates are going to be. Read the rest of this entry →

I like to cook these fatty dishes because my boyfriend loves them. I always find them so easy to prepare and taste great. I start to pile these fat on my butt and waist.
One day, I stood front of mirror I suddenly get lost. I mean not just the look, I felt physically and mentally disturbed by my weight. So I decided to lose weight. My grandma used to say, start from your mouth.
So somehow I managed to start to cut from what I ate. But it just didn’t work, I always craved for something else. I knew a balanced diet couldn’t be easy, especially when you were too busy. I used to starve myself by eating apples only. It was too hard until I found the perfect diet meals I loved.

From me, the answer was no, absolutely no. I did absolutely nothing but driving. I never knew how to organize vehicles and start from what. Each time, I took my car to the nearby service station for a regular checkup and changing oil, lubricants, air and oil filters, brakes, maybe a cleanup later. So that is what a service did, and what a vehicle needed. Maybe I was not right.
That is because I did change my thought. Before I think what a car does is taking me from point A to point B. I did not realize that a car just like a house needs someone put their effort to take care it or organize and décor it.
I changed my thought when one day I passed a friend’s neighborhood I saw this amazing look of a car, having the same color and exact model of my car. I made decision it is time for me to do something with my car. Read the rest of this entry →

I still remembered that my grandma was used to weave these beautiful landscape wall hanging rugs. At that time, rugs are heavy and full of colors. Only rich people have these luxury tastes to these colorful rugs. And my grandma like a lot of her aged women sat all the day to weave these beautiful rugs. In my memory, all these rugs were so beautiful, just like these fairy tales I read from these little plain books without any color pictures. All my imaginations are inspired by these beautiful beautiful rugs. I used to lay on the wide beach and watched my grandma doing her weaving. I tried to help her once or twice, my grandma said it was too dangerous to use sharp knife for a little girl. I spent my childhood laying next to my grandma and watching the rug come to shape.

I love my daughter. She always wants her space. I do give her certain space she needs. That is what I am proud to her mother. As a parent, I love my kid, but I don’t think she is big enough to take care of herself.
So that is what I do to let my daughter have her own freedom but still under my watch. First thing first, this is a good idea between mother and daughter. I didn’t need to go through all her boyfriends to find out who he is and where they went outside, because I knew them all. Last month, my daughter dated next street sweet boy. But without the little teen watching device, I couldn’t know all of this. Read the rest of this entry →
