Acne products Review :3

Hi everyone,

Remember all happy I was when  wrote last post? Well, things didn't go well afterwards. My throat got all itchy and I began to have a runny nose. On top of that, there's a protest at school because of high raise of school fees. For this reason, there's no class. I planned to go at downtown, meet with friends but no....I had to be sick. Today i have to go at school to work on a school project with my team. =_= I don't feel like going.

Enough with the crap! Today, I want to write a soap review XD My skin has always been problematic. I always have breakouts and the cystic ones are the worst. I tried many expensive products but none worked as I wanted. It would leave my skin dry or simply continue to breakout if I stop using the product. Seriously, I don't have alot of money to waste. After more research I came across two products that works wonderfully for me and those are affordable. Let's begin with the first product :D

The name is Benzagel 5 as you can read it :)

So when you have breakouts, apply this cream before going to sleep and in the morning on a clean face. You will notice the size of your pimple being reduced after 4 hours at least. It doesn't cause me dryness fortunately but you do have to be careful when pading your face with a towel because it might leave stains. So you've been warned :) Applying a thin layer of that cream is enough. So I feel refreshed when applying it o.o It feels like something minty on my face but it's a nice feeling. It's made in the USA I think or Canada...I forgot. But I'm 99% sure it's from the United States. The price is also very cheap. It costed me around 8$ I think. The 30g is the small size but there's also a bigger size. I had this cream since last year and it's 2/3 empty. So I believe you will have alot for 8$. My tube should expire in a few months but I don't plan on buying again because I don't have anymore acne XD So if you have skin problem, give it a try. I found this in pharmacy but I buy them online because they are cheaper.


Now the second product I use is this super soap. 
The name of the product is: Guelph soap

I only use this soap to wash my face. It is very light scented so it's absolutely perfect for sensible skin. I like this one over the commercial soaps and those expensive anti-acne soap. This cleans your skin without drying it out and it leaves it smooth. It's unlike other soap where you feel your skin being cracky and then you'll need to use a moisturizer...as a matter of fact, I don't even need a moisturizer anymore even right now considering it's winter. Ok..I did use moisturizer...maybe twice this whole season. That's it. I began to use it since this summer and the bar is still usuable. So it has a good durability. Not only that, it is an all natural soap; I am not sure what it means but maybe they use less chemicals. So the one I bought is 'oatmeal, honey, and goatmilk' scented. I love it! The other wow factor is the scrubbing part. So after using the soap, the hard oatmeal will gently scrub off the dead skin on you face.


You can see clearly the surface of the soap. Amazing huh! Canada made as well. :) I enjoy washing my face now hehe! There are also other interesting scent you should check out. The soap bar alone costs around 1.60$.  So it is a little pricey compared to the commercial ones but it is so worth if you want a healthy skin. The only downside to it, is that you can't buy one bar alone. You need to buy as a package of 6 which will cost you around 10$. I would love to buy a bar from different scent to try out but I am stuck for another 5 bars to use for the next 5 years lol. This soap is also hard to find in pharmacies. So I had to buy online as well.

You can get all these items on this website: http://well.ca/index.html The shipping is free if you live in Canada. So it doesn't matter how much products you pay, you will only spend money on your items. Don't forget this is a personal review. It works for me and I hope it will also work for you. :) let me know if you decide to buy!!!

Goodluck :)

Health and Fruit Fetish

Hi everyone XD,

I'm in a very good mood today. I had an exam this morning and it went very well. I can breathe a little now. I'll worry about the other exams and school projects during March break :) I would like to write about health this time!

To begin, I love peaches! That being said, I could eat about 4 or 5 peaches a day...maybe even more but i try to control my appetite. It's like a drug to me. It is soo addictive! I always feel like overdosing myself. Its flesh is soo sweet and there's a a taste of summer and freshness. You might think i'm trolling when I'm writing this but I'm not. I love cherries as well but they are a slightly expensive :/ I love fruits soo much! If I must be born as a fruit, I would like to be a pineapple. I want to be cut into little cubes and be eaten with a toothpick haha! Eating a fruit salad would be the best dessert ever for me.

Do you know how healthy fruits and vegetables are? Let me share some of my experience with you to be healthy and stay fit.

1. Eating homemade meals are the best things ever! You know what's on your plate as well.

2. Avoid the 'all you can eat' buffet...Especially the chinese ones. Their food is soo oily and could barely stand it. Time hortons is also in the list with the buffets soon. I feel their cappucino being oversweet. I always feel like I'm going diabetic after a cup. I want the old Tim hortons :(

3. A small portion of meat is all you need in a day. No need to indulge yourself. If you do, it's gluttony :) and it's a sin!

4. Drink alot of water and milk is also good. After watching a documentary, I learnt that drinking fruit juice is not very good because you can overdose yourself easily with vitamins. But if you are busy and didn't eat any fruit in any day, a glass of orange juice doesn't hurt.

5. Avoid any type of food with starch and flour. They expand horribly. Bagel is a very good example.

6. if you're not hungry but are still eating, it's also called gluttony. Please refer to number 3. Please eat only when you are hungry.

7. Drinking alcohol gives you a belly.

Now that you have your eating habit in control, it's time to talk about physical exercise. To be honest, I don't do alot of sports or exercising. Because of school, I lack alot of time and when I do have time, I spend it on catching back sleeping hours I missed. But you always have opportunities to do work out during the day. I like to use the stairs instead of the elevator. it's not alot but I'm trying *_* When it's summer, I love having a walk in the park. But the ideal way to stay fit would be real work out. But let's not forget that you must eat healthy. Doing working out everyday but eating junk food is not going to be any better.

Thank you for reading....time to get a little nap now =_= I spent all night studying.



Oh this is Sue with her whipped cream fetish XD *again I don't know how made this picture but credits to him or her* A special thank to Roma! He introduced me to Danbo! :3

Study break!

Hello people,

Mid terms have started and my last one will be this coming week. Then it will be march break. However, it will be full of studying again :/ I have been studying since i was 5 years old so it makes 20 years now...21 very soon. The day I will finish all of this will be a huge celebration. On the other hand, problems aren't solved. There will be new challenges every each solved problems. Looking for a job is a challenge for me. In science, you give your cv and that's it. But in the business industry, you have to look good and smile all the time for an interview. If you have friends working in that field or any type of association, it would be even better wether you have an exceptional potential or a straight A student. What a waste! So if you had good grades but are shy, then you're screwed. You'd better get tipsy and become nothing like yourself! XD nah I'm kidding on this one. But seriously, if you don't get out of your shell, it will be hard to stand out from the crowd. It's like a competition.

Before I studied in actuarial science, I was in biochemistry. At first, it started out good with the A+ but it slowly went to an F. What hapenned? I hated it with a pure passion. The laboratory experiment and the DNA were too much for me. I couldn't imagine myself packing my lunchbox everyday for work at the laboratory for the next 40 years or so. When I told my mom I wanted change my study field, she flipped. So I had to choose quickly something that brings good money and honor to the family. I was lost and stressed. So I asked Thany :'In what should I study? I want to study something related to math' and he said: 'Actuary'. I was puzzled for a moment and asked what it is and he said: 'I don't know but i heard it's very challenging.' So you see, my mom was flipping out and I was running out of time. I even asked my cousin who's studying in accounting thinking that maybe he knows and could be of any help but he was clueless as well. Not to forget 'those people' who can't mind their own f*cking business and gossip around that I left school for good to I run away with a guy. Oh saint Douglas! I wish there aren't such people who like to bring others down to make themselves feel better. Anyway, back to the subject! On my own, I went to a bookstore to make my own research. All I knew was the salary and something related to insurance. So I registered!

There was a meeting held for the new students and you know what hapenned? The principal said: '1 student on 3 will graduate'. My heart dropped and I was like: 'Did I make the right decision? I don't even know what is a actuary.' At that time, I didn't have an answer but now I do. Yes I did make the right decision. It was very challenging and alot of my friends left one by one but here I am. In order to success, you will have to sacrifice alot of things and there's no shortcuts. There are people who are born genius and can complete any task easily. I'm those people who are clumsy and walk into walls very often. So people who think I'm bright, it's not completely right. The geniuses have to read once, I have to do it 3 times. But I'm glad I met alot of friends who helped me along and I will never forget it. I have only 6 courses left and I will be done! So if i can do it, you can do it too. Miracles happen when you try!

For those who are still at school, don't give up. Keep in mind that you might fail a class here and there...so what? Stand up, repeat it again, and take it more seriously. It's not the end of the world. Now my study break is over so gooduck for those studying for their exams!

bye :)

The day after valentine's day and sexual creeps!

This will be a short post since I'm still in the middle of my midterms. So it was Valentine yesterday. I got a beautiful bouquet of roses :) I would prefer chocolates because I can't eat roses but I was happy nonetheless. However, it turns out to be sour this morning. See, I am supposed to be in class today but somehow, I felt really tired and wanted to sleep more. I managed to get at the subway at 8h15 but still couldn't get to class before 9 so the door was locked. Great! -_- I was soo pissed that I wanted to throw my shoe at the teacher. Why does he has to do this? Come on! I'm sure he takes the car! Try to take the STM in the morning and he will get a better understanding of how poor students struggle to go to his class.

On a positive note, let's go back to Valentine's day. I read the newspaper yesterday and there was an article where a guy asked a girl for marriage. It was mentionned that he wanted to make it special and out of the ordinary. So this morning, there was an update on that story and she agreed to his proposal. Apparently, she didn't expect anything at all as he prepared a wedding in Las Vegas. I though it was cute but how about if she refused? That was a bold move from him. All his money spent on the preparation would go into waste. I guess it depends on each woman. If a guy would ask me something like that in public, I would feel shy...not necessarily in a good way nor comfortable! Why? Well, I prefer something more discret. ...Now we are going to a tangent line...

Let's talk about sexual creeps. =_= I was a victim from this for many times. I was only 18 years old when it first hapenned. So it was during broad daylight and I was walking to the bus stop. I had to walk 15 minutes to the bus stop. So on mid way, there was an old man with his little dog who came talking to me. Since I am friendly as ever, I talked to him as well despised him being a stranger! What could go wrong? He must be a grandpa! So he just asked me where I was going, etc. Then he showed me his house and wanted me to visit him sometimes. I nodded and told him I would when I will be done with my exams. In my mind I was like: 'HA! Dream on old man! I don't go to stranger's house!' So I told him bye and walked ahead. When I got to my bus stop, he came as well. o.o He continued talking and I politely listened to him. Then Suddenly, he asked: 'Did you ever had sex before?' I was like wtf and remained silent. He continued asking me: 'come on tell me! Are you a virgin?' Me: 'Why do you ask?' The old man: 'You shouldn't be afraid about sex. I met an asian lady last week and she liked it.' I was like:' OH MY DOUGLAS! WHY ME?' I politely smiled and thank Douglas the bus came. *shrugs*

Second time I got harassed was last autumn. I was really scared!!! So I met this guy again and as you know, I am too friendly -_- So we had a conversation about studies and random stuff. All of a sudden,

Him: Wanna go clubbing next week?

Me: no. I don't go to those kind of places.

Him: Come on! It will be fun. (he kept on insisting for 30 minutes)

Me: Ok...then how about I invite a few friends?

Him: Nah, it's better just the two of us.

Me: ..........I'll give you a call if I can make it.

Him: ok! I'll write it in my agenda for next friday night at 10pm.

When I got home, I was going apesh*t! What am I going to do?? ..ok calm down...maybe he won't call right? Then my cell phone is ringing. Since I don't have the id caller, I had to answer the call and it was him! He kept on asking again and I told him I was too busy with school. So he postponed it for next week again.

A few days later, I went out with friends and that creep called again! So Nixon had the bright idea to pretend to be my boyfriend so he answered the call. So it was him! But Tam answered my cell instead of Nixon and he passed it to me....Fail! The next day, the creep called again but Thany answered and told him off I was busy. Geez! Can't guys know that I'm not interested at this point? Seriously!!!  Afterwards, I couldn't answer my cell anymore. I told my close friends and family that if i don't answer it's because I don't have the id caller and don'T want to talk with that creep. So eventually, I threathen the phone company to leave if they don't charge me cheaper with idcaller included. It turned out well! So now I have id caller :D And I don't answer wierd calls again XD

Moral of story:

1.Perverts can be from a range of all age. There's old man, youngsters, etc.

2.They prey girls at any time of the day!

3.Don't be friendly with strangers! Except for friends of friends!

4.Never talk to people out of pity!

So back to valentine's day, it was great. But don't worry, I didn't get flowers from a creep! :3

Time to get back to class now...hopefully it's break soon! bye :)

ps. sorry for the long post again....It always ends up long.

Skinny, normal, chubby!

I am going to write about a delicate subject today that is women's weight. I went on facebook last night and i saw this picture on my friend's page...

(I wish i could give credits to the one who made this but it is unknown. I do not own this picture or anything!)

So I read various comments from different people and mostly say: 'Oh the skinny girl should eat!' or 'I would like more meat on the bones please!' or 'I'll take the girl on the right anytime'. I understand people want to encourage women understanding that being too skinny is not pretty so they should eat more. Naturally, I thought it was true that skinny is not the ideal look...but then I'm like: 'Wait a minute!...What am I doing? Who am I to judge what is right or not?'

Being skinny doesn't mean anything. It doesn't mean that the girl on the left is anorexic. What do we know about her? Maybe she's eating normally but that's how she turns out to be. How about the girls who are healthy but looks naturally like this? I think we are giving the wrong message to young girls here. Here is what I think. It doesn't matter wether you are skinny or fat. What matters most is being healthy. None can tell another how fat or skiny she has to be.

That being said, I had a friend back in high school and she was bullied because she was skinny. Other girls would call her anorexic when she isn't and told her that she has money to buy herself some food. Come on! After school, she asked me if i find her skinny because of the girls bullying her. She eats alot and wears large clothes to make herself look bigger. People these days!

What<s worse is the pervert guys leaving the comments. I read many of those saying 'I'd totally hit the left one!' We do not want to know your fantasies and a girl should change her body or sacrifice her eating habit just to please the guy. If he doesn't you, skinny girls, leave him! Love should not be entirely based on appearance anyway.How about the boys? Why are the girls the only target here? There are also skinny boys and nobody is saying anything. >,>

Paranormal activities in my house!

Honestly, I really do wish all of this was fake and made up but actually it isn't. So let me tell you what hapenend last month.

The cupboard smelled weird. When I checked, there was some molded bread ;O so My mom threw it away and we left it open to let the air change. She also told me to close it when i'm done cooking. I was open guys!!!! Mom went downstairs to continue her drama. So there I was in the kitchen, cooking my dinner. When I was finally done, I cleaned the top of the stove. When i turned around, the cupboard was closed! -_- Alirght! i know you guys are thinking: 'You closed it on yoru own but just forgot it!' No i tell you it was open! :O

Unfortunately, things got creepier. This hapenned few weeks ago. Here's the discussion I had with my mom when I woke up.

Mom: Why were you staring at me?
Me: huh?
Mom: Last night you were staing at me! What's the matter with you?
Me: errr when?
Mom: it was 2-3pm ;O
Me: What are YOU  talking about? I was sleeping!
Mom: No I saw you staring at me! You really freaked me out!
Me: what did I do? ;O
Mom: your eyes were wide open lookign straight at me. So i just pushed your front head and you went back to sleep.
Me: Lie! If my eyes were open, i would be awake!
Mom: No it's true! no lies!!!

I got freaked out a little. I talked to Eva afterwards and she told me I was probably sleepwalking. It did reassured me a little but it wasn't enough. When i told Nixon, he said that I was sleepwalkign too. On top of that, one of his friends slept with his eyes open! So i guess his case is worst than mine :/ Let's really hope I was sleepwalking.

This happenned last night! So right now, I am tired because I wasn't able to sleep at all. So I chatted with Nixon again yesterday and he told me he saw a ghost at Thany's appartment. I'm not going into details but apparently, he wasn't the only one who saw it. As you know me, I'm neurotic! It made me nervous and I won't visit his place for a while. After the call, i stayed a little late because i had to work on a homework involving a program called SAS. At 1am, I went to drink some water and when I came back, I saw a black figure running away really fast. I was really scared!  @_@ I texted Nixon and he told me it was probably my imagination.I know he was tryign to comfort me but I was still scared :( I didn't even go brush my teeth! You think I'm crazy enough to go back upstairs when there's nobody? Oh hell no! I burnt some incense then prayed! Please good lord! Let me not meet something like that again!

Just a few moments ago when I was writing my blog, i heard a weird noise! @_@ Since I have my own laptop now, I'll write my stuff elsewhere there's more people. If you know someone who's a specialist on these kind of things, i accept them with opened arms if they are willing to volunteer and help here.
