Just kind of busy this days and I almost forgot to open my blog. But still, I find time to keep in touch with you. :)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;I hope you had wonderful New Year’s celebrations! And I hope each and every one of you had created your New Year’s resolutions. Before 2009 ends, I’ve created my own. I really need this to have a positive 2010! And it’s a pleasure to share you my list:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;1. I have to lose weight!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt; Just weigh this morning and got a shocking 47 kilos!!! I’m 23 years old, height of 5’3” (not sure), and I think I’m kinda overweight! I have to lose at least 2 kilos and maintain a 45-kilo weight.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;2. I NEED to have a toned tummy!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt; Sounds funny! But almost all women are craving for this. And I really want to have this before the end of 2010.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;3. I have to organize my finances.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt; This is my most important New Year’s resolution this 2010. Okay, are you also having difficulties with your finances? Well, maybe it’s also the time for you to organize it! Let me specify it one by one:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;1. Cut your Debt. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Decrease your spending habits. Before you buy anything, think ten times – do you need it or you just want it? If you decided it was the latter, then put it back and forget about it! Use your extra money wisely. If you come across unexpected money, such as gifts or refunds, use it wisely. Put it toward your outstanding debt.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;2. Open savings account.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt; You have to be prepared for a financial emergency. Savings account helps you avoid putting emergency expenses on your credit card and have to pay the interest charges. And it helps you control your urges to spend.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;3. Build a budget.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt; A budget will give you financial peace of mind. It’s really hard to save if you don’t know how to budget your money. Many people overestimate their purchasing power. They look at their total salary as the money available to spend. And after years of working, they will realize they don’t have any savings. So better start now and stop buying what you don’t need!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;4. Investment. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Once all financial aspects of your life are handled you can begin to think about establishing a plan for building your wealth through investing. Depending on where you are on the other items, don&#39;t feel bad if this goal gets put off until 2011. Take care of your debt first!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;It is really not easy to keep and maintain a resolution. It requires constant looking after, conscious effort, and persistence. But you&#39;ll reap the rewards for years to come if you are able to stick with it! There’s never been a better time for new beginnings, a time to quit your old habit and change for the better! Good luck to us!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

You might even have dark feet or cracked heels. It’s really frustrating most especially to us ladies. And we might get tired of looking for remedies or products that can help solve the problems.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47; font-family: &#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; mso-fareast-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47; font-family: &#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; mso-fareast-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;;&quot;&gt;I am a member of a forum and it made me realize that GLYSOLID GLYCERIN CREAM is very popular. I’ve been seeing this product in most supermarkets here in Dubai, but I never imagined that it is known by many.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggEoo0j3EZdBaBZ48_2IqK0NSVqTafV7l7KlyINLYVilAxw14NB77Tf09EniGru7LCWWDMl82uFcgkD3q_05Ueg8KnAajvA-FxSryxSVxl0wYq6-8JbfmUxqd888J6pOzaFeSfJ-kBcEE/s1600-h/Glysolid.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; ps=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggEoo0j3EZdBaBZ48_2IqK0NSVqTafV7l7KlyINLYVilAxw14NB77Tf09EniGru7LCWWDMl82uFcgkD3q_05Ueg8KnAajvA-FxSryxSVxl0wYq6-8JbfmUxqd888J6pOzaFeSfJ-kBcEE/s200/Glysolid.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

It is a high performance skin care product that is carefully formulated for people with sensitive and problem dry skin. Glysolid allows individuals skin protection against harsh elements and changing extremes in climate. It is also very effective against day-to-day damages of the skin caused by environmental influence, work, and handling skin-damaging substances.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

There are lots of people on the street. Very busy buying groceries for Christmas Eve… Very occupied on choosing which gifts are they going to buy for their grandchildren. Since Christmas is approaching, I know lots of people are having hard time thinking on what to give not only to their grandchildren but also to their grandchildren’s “entourage”.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47; font-family: &#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;During Christmas, it is common that your grandchildren will visit you to get their “aguinaldo”. And you will not be surprised to see other kids that your grandchild brought – their friends, cousins, etc. – and will also ask for their gifts. And since Christmas is the season for giving, you don’t want to disappoint them. Before you panic, let me give you some ideas, on what to give your grandchildren’s entourage:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Baked cookies – if you can bake, then why don’t you use your talent so you could save money during Christmas? Just put it in a cute packaging and kids will surely love it!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivPEJeCqsU2WXiN2UlT3iVkt7aFyAcAc5BP-oxNf5dLOmdzYOoWJCPjrjIN6UWtxu1tRqna3IW1Cn0_1Qnvl2xRbeCCGhc0g6ZlPWyfQRgIKpCTsG7jlusMeQgcDkUfuLJOvt9_AEWwS4/s1600-h/cel+chain.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; ps=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivPEJeCqsU2WXiN2UlT3iVkt7aFyAcAc5BP-oxNf5dLOmdzYOoWJCPjrjIN6UWtxu1tRqna3IW1Cn0_1Qnvl2xRbeCCGhc0g6ZlPWyfQRgIKpCTsG7jlusMeQgcDkUfuLJOvt9_AEWwS4/s320/cel+chain.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Keychains or cellphone chains – This is very cheap yet everyone will love! Just make sure you choose those cute and pretty designs for kids. This will cost you around PHP 5-10.00 only.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

New bill – Kids don’t look after the amount, just give them that new and “crispy” money bill. You can give them at least 20 peso bill and they will appreciate it!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;I think almost everyone have tried using beauty products and hop to another, then hop to another. This is because, we cannot find satisfaction on the products we are using. I remember the first time I used commercialized beauty products. I was 14 years old and started to feel like, I need to make myself pretty and more presentable to others. So I bought a beauty product and it is the one who introduced me to pimples!! PIMPLES!!! Urgh!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;Many of us are suffering from skin sensitivity caused by commercialized beauty products. But the ironic thing is that, we still keep on looking for other products only to find out that our skin is getting worse! Then why don’t you throw those products and go for the more economical way and chemical-free beautifying techniques? Here are some beauty recipes I would love to share:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Hair - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Many people struggle with dry, hard to manage hair. It may result from too much washing, a dry environment, inadequate diet, harsh chemicals such as hair straightening, or by hot styling products such as heat iron or blow dryer. The good news is that some beauty recipes can help restore or re-hydrate your hair leaving it softer and shinier than ever.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;1. Honey – Mix one tablespoon of honey and any type of oil (olive oil, corn oil, etc). Distribute mixture evenly all over hair.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;2. Mayonnaise – Coat dry hair with mayonnais. Once finished, cover with a plastic shower cap and leave on for 15-20 minutes. Wash your hair thoroughly with shampoo and conditioner to wash off the smell.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;3. Olive Oil - Apply olive oil all over your hair. Cover with a plastic bag and let it stay for 20 mintues. For extra conditioning, take a warm shower while waiting. The heat will help the oil work to its maximum potential.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Face – &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Everyone experience sensitive or dry skin on their face at one time or another. Diet, travelling, change of climate and skin care all affect our skin. By making a few changes in routine, skin can grealty be benefited. Learn this simple techniques and put your best face forward.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;1. Egg – Press half a lemon and mix with egg white. Put it evenly on face. Do it once a week to moisturize, whiten, and soften your face.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;2. Milk Mask – Moist some cotton wool with milk and rub it gently on face. Milk is a good face cleanser and can even use to take off make ups.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Avocado - Avocado is a naturally affluent moisturizer. Mush the meat of the avocado into a creamy texture. Massage into the face and neck. Leave on for 15 minutes and gently wash off.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Body – &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;It is important to exfoliate our body to keep our skin looking and feeling soft, hydrated, and healthy. Body spas can be expensive but let me share you some ways to make your own body srub at home.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;1. Sugar, salt, and olive oil – Mix sugar, salt and some olive oil and apply to wet skin. Olive oil is kinda hard to wash off but it surely makes your skin moisturized and soft.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;2. Milk and salt – Mix fresh milk or a can of evap milk and iodize salt. Srub it all over body and leave it for 10-15 minutes. Rinse with warm water. Do this once a week.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;3. Coffee grounds, sugar, and massage oil – Creating coffee scrub is easy, beneficial and most of all, cheap! Not to mention that coffee has added benefits for your skin and body that many body scrubs do not provide. Mix three ingredients. Rub it to wet skin with circular motions. It helps to eliminate cellulite and varicous veins.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;For more beauty recipes, visit: &lt;a href=&quot;http://allaboutvenus.blogspot.com/2009/12/beauty-recipes.html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc0000;&quot;&gt;BEAUTY RECIPES&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

People love to eat and some make this as their stress reliever. Weight lose does not have to take forever. With some self control, discipline, hard work, and eagerness you can lose weigh fast.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8csA3Le2tqA7fr7Pqk4yDxAWSGGY5vpcmdrpPKZD1zVH55X72WHmt6ahSPi2oppKPHoWKtydicBXEkj02rRXLkFv6f1fckibQPs0_wvn7-Gky7N665q7RLV5jsFZpIVoDsXsYHyU6Yy0/s1600-h/Plastic_tape_measure.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; ps=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8csA3Le2tqA7fr7Pqk4yDxAWSGGY5vpcmdrpPKZD1zVH55X72WHmt6ahSPi2oppKPHoWKtydicBXEkj02rRXLkFv6f1fckibQPs0_wvn7-Gky7N665q7RLV5jsFZpIVoDsXsYHyU6Yy0/s200/Plastic_tape_measure.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Keep track of your measurements. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Doing this will give you more motivation to lose weight fast. Measure your waist, hips, thighs and arms with a tape measure and set a realistic goal. And don’t forget to weigh yourself every morning before you eat. Make a list and update it everyday.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Change your diet – NOW!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt; Loosing weight means lots of self control. Remember that you cannot eat junk foods such as chips, burgers, fries, pizza, etc, if you really want to achieve your goal. You should eat &lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;small meals &lt;/b&gt;every 2 ½ hours and not to go more than six hours without eating (except when you are sleeping of course). Each meal should have a source of protein and carbs. Yes! You need carbs to add energy to your body. But not carbs from rice or breads, but from dark green veggies such as broccoli, dark leafy lettuce, and spinach. It might sound boring but it’s better than to see yourself overweight.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Have 8,000 steps a day. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;If you aren&#39;t moving your body you aren&#39;t going to lose weight fast, or at all. It will not only help you lose weight but it is very helpful for your heart and brain health. You might also consider buying pedometers that tells how many calories you have lost. They aren’t 100% accurate of course, but they get pretty close. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Get your sleep. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;I know all of us are busy and have things going on, but don’t forget that your body needs enough sleep every night. The average adult needs at least 7-8 hours of sleep. When your body is working, it needs more time to repair, which means you need more time to sleep.

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3rk4F1_Of9OHn-VoABemoxCvxgIrYCpktZb-RYdn_MK0fmQaK1B17MLh3pKRMRLegz-cM-ISzqqv0dW4TivsgQl6fBSzHZuG8SsrskGoReY1qDzsaMyIhKVQtb-zg0nfHi4g21srcqWs/s1600-h/sleeping+on+clouds.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; ps=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3rk4F1_Of9OHn-VoABemoxCvxgIrYCpktZb-RYdn_MK0fmQaK1B17MLh3pKRMRLegz-cM-ISzqqv0dW4TivsgQl6fBSzHZuG8SsrskGoReY1qDzsaMyIhKVQtb-zg0nfHi4g21srcqWs/s200/sleeping+on+clouds.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Lots of people now are suffering from insomnia. And there are tips to follow on how to get a good night sleep easily.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;1. Drink honey. Honey can give you a deep sleep. If you are also trying to lose weight, you should drink a spoonful of honey before you sleep. It can burn off your fats. If you don’t want to lose weight, drink it in the morning. It will not only help your sleep but it can give you more energy during the day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;2. Do not eat heavy before you sleep. This actually a good habit not just helps you sleep but also helps you lose weight.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;3. Don’t smoke cigarettes before you sleep as it contains stimulants and will make your sleep more difficult. And it’s better if you’ll totally QUIT SMOKING! It will not only help your sleep but your overall health!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;4. Try to sleep at the same time every night. If you had already developed a pattern, your body will adjust to it and make you fall asleep fast. If you missed the pattern, it will be then difficult for you to sleep.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;5. Keep a comfortable environment. Too hot or too cold will make it hard for you to rest. Too much noise can also disturb your sleep. Avoid too much light or better to get sleep mask.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;6. Avoid being active before you sleep. Some people thought that a good workout before bed helps you feel more tired, but it can actually keep you awake because it stimulates your heart, brain and muscle.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;7. Lots of stress in your life have a negative impact on your ability to sleep well. So be sure to have some sort of relaxation everyday. You can do it before you sleep. Just close your eyes, think of happy thoughts, inhale and exhale, forget your problems and you can instantly get that relaxed state of mind.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;Goodluck and wishing you a soundful&amp;nbsp;sleep!!&lt;br /&gt;

And all we can hear from them is “Things will get better” or “Maybe you just need time apart”. Then you will go home without satisfying answer in mind. It is really hard to see the signs if your relationship is in trouble. And it is not enough to wait if things will really get better.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;You have to start analyzing and observing your relationship to see any signs of danger.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;If you don’t know how to, start checking if you ever felt any of the following:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;You feel that your trust to your partner is fading or is completely vanished.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;You start lying to your partner or you feel he/she is lying to you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;You lost your self-confidence because of your relationship with your significant other.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;You’ve been complaining to others about your situation with your partner.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;If you agreed to most or all of these, then you need a repair! It might be hard to save a relationship, but if you really love your partner, you won’t regret if you’ll try. Talk to your partner. Try to bring back the care and the passion that you had before. Put additional effort to your relationship. Start dating again! Take the necessary steps to save it and correct the mistakes you’ve both done to your relationship.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

All of us know that long distance relationship needs extra effort. Many people believe that this kind of relationship doesn’t work. However, successful long distance relationships can and do exist. It will survive as long as both of you are willing to work it out.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;Here are a few simple things you need to consider to make sure you hold on to the man or woman of your dreams.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;1. Open your communication.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt; In every long distance relationship, communication is very important. Give each other a call everyday. Or send SMS. Nowadays, there are lots of ways to open up your communication. Use instant messenger program and purchase a webcam for that visual connection. But remember that email and instant messengers can increase the possibility of misunderstanding. Write love letters. Send ecards in every occasion or even without occasions just to let them know you’re thinking of them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;2. Do things together.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt; In a long distance relationship, interaction over phone can be boring in the long run. Thinking of other ways to interact is necessary. You can watch movie together. Pick your fave movies and watch online. You can even buy popcorn so you can feel your watching together on a movie house. You can use this link search and watch movie online: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.watch-movies-online.tv/&quot;&gt;http://www.watch-movies-online.tv/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Talk about your future together. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;If you want to live together, discuss on how you can get to that point. Have goals. Have definite time as to when do you want to be with your partner. It will then help you to prove that your relationship is going somewhere.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;4. See each other often.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt; A relationship cannot survive with just phone calls or instant messenger. You have to see your partner in person. Whenever your budget permits or whenever you have a chance, grab it!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;5. Be positive. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;This is the first rule of my boyfriend. Always be positive. Don’t look at the negative aspects of your relationship. Yes, it is hard not seeing your partner but it is not bad at all. You can have time to do your personal things while your partner is away. And you can even use the time that you’re away to beautify yourself. Some couples break up to &quot;find themselves&quot;, but in a long distance relationship you both have enough space to do your own things and still have a connection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;6. Give them personal thing of yours so when they miss you, they are able to hold on to something that once belonged to you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt; This will give happiness, comfort, and the feeling of being with you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;7. Avoid jealousy.&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;Jealousy will destroy trust and&amp;nbsp;the foundation of all good relationships. This is the easiest way to&amp;nbsp;ruin every perfect relationship. This can make you nagger, and demanding of his time. Remember that every person has the right to have social life. Being overly suspicious is unhealthy for you, your partner, and your relationship.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;Relationship is a two-way street. Both of you should be willing to take the risk.&amp;nbsp;You should both have the determination to make it work. You&#39;ve&amp;nbsp;decided to be in that situation, so you better do anything to make it work.&amp;nbsp;Try to make every possible effort from your side. It&#39;s commitment that is most important as love may fade away with time, but it&#39;s your positive attitude that will keep it alive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

It’s really hard for working ladies to do that. I’m just so lucky that I’m still with my parents and all I need to do when I got home is change my clothes, sit and relax for a while in front of the TV and eat my dinner. Then I’ll wake up in the morning with breakfast ready on the table. But last night, my parents were out of town. So I have to cook for myself and my younger sister. Well, I know how to cook. Because when I was in the &lt;country-region w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;&lt;place w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;Philippines&lt;/place&gt;&lt;/country-region&gt;, I’ve been cooking for myself, my two cousins and my older brother. But its four years back and this is the time to practice again.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I thought Binagoongang Baboy (Pork with Shrimp Paste) would be easy. So I cooked it and made some changes. I add water to it so I could put some on my rice. I don’t like other versions of this dish because they cook it too salty and too dry. I’m just happy because my lil sis ate a lot and the first thing she said when she took her first bite is “Wow!! Delicious!”. Okay, enough of that, here’s the photo of my dish. I should have taken the photo with better camera pixel and I wish to have better photography skills. And I really didn&#39;t realize that I will be making this topic here in my blog so I did not put extra effort on the appearance of the dish.&amp;nbsp;Sad about that… Please bear with me. At least I know now what to do next time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Procedure:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;In a casserole, boil pork and lower fire until water evaporates and pork oil starts to come out. When pork is lightly crispy, put in on the side, add a bit of oil and sauté garlic, onion and tomatoes in the fat and mix pork once more. Add in the bagoong (shrimp paste) and cook while stirring for 5 minutes. Pour in the water and stir well. Add more water if needed. Add in some sugar, pepper to taste, lemon, chili peppers and let simmer for 10 minutes or just until cooked. Garnish green mango strips on top. Serve hot.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;COOK&#39;S TIPS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;margin-top: 0cm;&quot; type=&quot;disc&quot;&gt;&lt;li class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;color: red; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I add the juice of one lemon and a little sugar, to help to mellow out the strong flavor and cut down the salty taste.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;color: red; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Adjust the amount of shrimp paste to your taste. If you like it more salty, add just a little bit. &lt;b&gt;Remember&lt;/b&gt;, you can always add more, but once it gets too salty, your dish is ruined...so be careful.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&quot;Having been committed to love someone, means losing the opportunity of having others to love you. So, be sure the person you are committed to deserves your love and worthy of your sacrifices…&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;That is the quoted theory from one of my best pals. She’s been asking and wondering why she doesn’t have a boyfriend. And she even suggested me to write this topic here in my blog. But don’t get me wrong – she is so pretty, so sexy (wink), and so nice! – she has had tons of suitors. I’m neither a love guru nor a relationship doctor. I’m just one of those very observant and the kind of person wherein experience is my teacher. I’m not telling you that I have lots and lots of experiences. But I’m learning from the experiences of others&lt;em&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;She once asked me: &quot;How can I have a boyfriend? How can I find Mr. Right?&quot;. You want a boyfriend? First find out why you don’t still have one! There are plenty of things that can scare man away.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;Okay, first of all, this is not all about my friend. She just gave me an idea on what to write but I am enumerating things in general. Let me close my eyes and think of all the girls in general. I’ll include here the complaints that I’ve been hearing from my guy friends. Okay, here it goes:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;1. You Talk About Your Ex&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;For some girls, it is so hard to let go of their exes. But even though how much you loved your ex, or how disastrous your past relationship was, believe me when I say that he doesn’t want to hear about it. Talking about your ex will not help your rebound and will only keep your new guy wondering whether you’re actually ready to make a new commitment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;2. You Hook Up… A &lt;place w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;Lot&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;The idea of &quot;no strings attached&quot; and having different guy each week may be exciting for other girls, but that&#39;s exactly where you&#39;ll end up—unattached. You might think this is the easiest and quickest way to getting a guy but more often than not it just send the wrong signal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;3. You are the high-maintenance girl&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;When they look at you, they see a model of the designer wear. From your Louis Vuitton top to your Armani shoes. Even though you&#39;re glam to look at, many regular men prefer leaving it at just that. He might think that his entire paycheck will be going up in smoke just to keep you in the style you are accustomed to.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;4. The gold digger&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;In my language, it is known as the &quot;bilmoko&quot; girls. Some girls are trying to look at the net worth of a guy before getting to know him as a person. Some are trying to find this out by asking a guy to date her on a fancy restaurant and asking him to buy some expensive stuff. This will lead a man to run away from you as fast as he can. This is the easiest way of ensuring that you&#39;ll never gonna see him again.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;5. You have very high standards&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;I’m not telling you to look for just anybody on the street. I admit that all girls have &quot;ideal guys&quot; - including me. You can have your ideals but not to the point that you are looking for a &quot;romance pocket book guy&quot; or the perfect man. Remember – nobody’s perfect! You have to love them despite their imperfections.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;If one or several of these characterizations accurately describes you, it’s not too late to take a good, hard look at yourself and plan how you can make some subtle (or drastic as the case may be) improvements for the better!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #993366; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;It is not tough to find Mr. Right provided you have realistic expectations towards life. The only key to find him is to redesign your outlook towards Mr. Right. Don’t put too much emphasis on the outer beauty or materialistic things because that will never be everlasting, the only thing which will last is the compatibility!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Hi Venus! Ladies like us have different insights – far more different from guys out there. Sometimes we spend days, months, and even years just to seek answers to our simple questions. And it takes a lifetime for men to understand women and vice versa. That’s why I want to spend my excess time writing this blog. So we can talk just anything under the sun – hobbies, beauty secrets, recipes, love issues, destinations – just everything! To start with, here’s the topic that most women will love: Beauty Secrets!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Most ladies especially working women missed the fun of going to salons. But being busy is not a reason to stop pampering yourself. You have to have at least a day – or spend one of your weekends – for yourself. Only for yourself! Have a “lazy day”. You can sleep as long as you want. Wake up at 11pm, eat your lunch, have a long nice bath, and spend your day to spoil yourself from head-to-toe! Don’t think of anybody or anything. It’s not a sin to be selfish just for a day!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Here are some beauty recipes, which will really help you to keep your glow during your busiest days:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hair:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Have a hair treatment every week! You can buy cheap Hot Oils from the supermarkets near you. Just wet your hair, massage some hot oils onto your hair from root to tip. Put a shower cap and leave it for 20 mins. If you don’t have time to buy hot oil, you can rather use conditioner.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Face:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;You can use yogurt as a cleanser for sensitive skin. Cleanse and exfoliate in one step by mixing 1 tsp. baking soda with 1 tsp. plain yogurt.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Apply mixture and leave on for 2 minutes, then gently massage into skin.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Rinse well with warm water.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;(Note:&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;This combination gently cleans pores, removes dead cells and softens dry, sensitive skin without irritation.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Body:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;A healthy skin is easy to achieve just by exfoliating once a week. You can use &lt;place w:st=&quot;on&quot;&gt;St.&lt;/place&gt; Ives body Scrub or Baking Soda and Oatmeal (for dry skin) or alternately every week. Mix together two tablespoons of baking soda, and four tablespoons of dry oatmeal. Add a few drops of water at a time while thoroughly mixing the baking soda and the oatmeal until a paste is created. Gently apply to skin and let it set for a moment. Rub gently and rinse off. For the feet, you could apply it to a brush, but direct contact on the skin works best.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Feet:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Many people said that lots of guys love beautiful feet! So better have it! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;1. Soak feet in warm soapy water to which hydrogen peroxide is added to loosen hidden dirt and soften rough skin. Allow the feet to remain in water for 7-10 minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Carry out brush cleaning of the toe-nails while scrubbing them well. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Remove hard skin of both feet with a foot scraper. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;4.

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;6. Remove cuticle skin with the combined use of cuticle pusher, remove and clipper. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;7.

&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hands:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Here are some ideas to have hands which all guys will love to hold! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;1&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;. Wash hands thoroughly with warm water, then, using a coarse washcloth, rub briskly. While skin is slightly damp, apply a mixture of one teaspoon honey and one teaspoon olive oil. Place hands in small plastic bags, then in a pair of cotton gloves for thirty minutes. The heat helps the treatment penetrate. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;2. Warm a cup of milk in the microwave for thirty seconds (or until warm, but comfortable to the touch). Soak your hands for five minutes to strengthen nails and hydrate skin. Not only is milk loaded with lactic acid, a natural alpha hydroxyl acid that gently exfoliates dead skin, but its high calcium content will strengthen fragile nails.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Teeth Whitening:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Are you longing for those perfect white teeth? Then do these simple steps to help you whiten your teeth in no time:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Take a teaspoon of lemon juice and a tsp of salt. Make a paste. Apply this on the yellowish tint.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #741b47;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;You don’t need to spend much to be glam and beautiful! You just have to be patient to get what you want. And remember – No guts, no glory. Just be yourself, be confident, and smile… and let your inner beauty shine!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
