Candles make me feel better.

Hello there,

The feelings of worry, sadness, depression, anxiety, negativity, breakdown. These can all be over come  or controlled just by lighting a candle. 

Yesterday I bought new candles and it was also yesterday what I've grown a great interest for them. 

These are special candle because they "Sea Side Collection" 

I love the sea. Even thought I can't swim, I still love the sea, the ocean. But I despise water parks.  

So light yourself a candle, scented or not. 

Take a nap with it on.

It'll make you feel comfortable and so much better.

The Meaning of Life

For the past week, I've felt completely lost and blank with my life. I started asking questions to myself like;
"Why are we in this world? Why is there life? Why is there the universe? How is all this possible? How is life impossible? What is the purpose of life? Why is it so meaningful?"

and other random questions of why are here, living on this planet in this universe.

I have basically been on auto pilot the entire week, thinking, wondering, cogitating my life and it's purpose. 

On Friday, my cousin came over, and I slightly opened up to her, and told her my thoughts and questions, and she showed me a video that at least explains the meaning of life. 

Here is the video if you want to watch it. Sex, Death and the Meaning of Life

My cousin explained to me that there is no real meaning of life, and that everyone has their own purpose and meaning to life. No one can really explain it's meaning. We even googled it and skimmed through the wikipedia page. Meaning of life.

At the end of everything that I read and watched for about 2 hours or less, and the entire day of trying to sink everything in and understand it. I came up with the conclusion that life has no meaning and that you have to enjoy the beauty of life and what it has to offer. 

I'll be finishing university on December at the age of 18. This seems another big leap in my life and I think this is the reason that made me think twice of the existence of entire universe and everything inside and around it. 

I still seem a bit lost and black and my brain is probably still on auto pilot. But, we just all have to face life head on and enjoy it. Enjoy what it has to offer, because who knows, we'll maybe only get one life. Or as most people say these days that really annoy the hell out of me "You only live once (YOLO)"

I fucking hate that line because it became so annoyingly mainstream. But it speaks that truth. You may only live once or you may be resurrected or something.  

You just have accept the life you have and enjoy the wonders of everything it presents, because to be completely honest, there is absolutely nothing you can do about it; besides kill yourself. 

The meaning of life is the most unanswered questions in the entire universe; in my opinion. Life is just there, without any explanation, it just exists and no one knows why. It is up to you what you do with yours. 

I am going to make the best of it. Starting with finishing university with honors. From there I'll have to decide what to do next. 

Run Run Run

I have been going walking/jogging/running outside with my sister for a about 3-4 days now. We would go and do that for about 30 minutes or so. And these 30 minutes include a little bit of jogging, power walking and just normal walking.

Let me tell you this, If you want to loose weight, if you want to have your ideal body and become your ideal weight, then all you need to do is to get off your butt and work for it. Get motivated. Stay motivated.

Going out for a walk or run alone may seem a tad bit scary for some of us because sometimes people stare and you kind of get freaked out by them, or probably because we don't like going alone. I suggest going with someone so that both of you can motivate each other.

After you take that 20 minute or 30 minute run or walk, you will feel tired and exhausted BUT, you will feel great and fantastic after your done and it will inspire you to do much more with your day and more with your life, because I know I felt the same way by the end of my run.

What you're going to do:
What I want you all to do right now is to go and call up a friend and ask if they want to go jogging with you. Plan when you'll go and for how long. Trust me you'll feel great by the end of that run.

If you want to get somewhere, take action my lovelies.

Don't tell anyone what you're going to do

Good day all!

As my title has said. "Don't tell anyone what you're going to do".

Because when most people tell their friends what they'll be doing, or what they're excited to do in the future, some of them are most likely not to be doing what they planned on doing.

Like what I did with my "Worlds Fastest Workout Experiment" in my previous posts. I said that I'll be doing this work out for a few weeks and I would see the outcome. But I didn't do it. I wasn't committed.

So just a piece of advice for you.
When you have a goal or you want to do something that will probably change some part of your life, keep it to yourself until you've achieved it.

The Worlds Fastest Workout Experiment - Fail

Good day all,

As you've all noticed that I didn't post anything on July 28th 2012, which was suppose to be my proposed end date of my "Worlds Fastest Workout Experiment". Yeah, I didn't do it. I feel disappointed in myself for not doing it.

But I have to say that I did do the workout on the first week. And my Feedback is, I couldn't last the whole 4 minutes. This just proves I'm out of shape, and my stability is quite low. It was extremely tiring, but I know it's worth it if done constantly.

I apologize that I didn't do the experiment.

Have a great day!
xoxo 

The Worlds Fastest Workout Experiment

We all have at least extra fat we want to get rid of and we're too busy to fit "working out" into our busy schedules. 


The worlds fastest workout is only 4 minutes long and it's a full on body work out. Take a look.

I personally tried this workout, and I was surprised that I couldn't really finish the 4 minutes. But once I keep doing it I'll be able to do at least 8 minutes of this. 

I am going to try to do this at least twice a week. During Fridays and Saturday mornings. I am going to do this right after I do yoga and meditation for a month and see the result. 

This workout said it would increase the metabolism for 36 hours. I just had to try it, and so far it's going great. 

So, I just weighed myself and I am now 75kg (June 30th 2012). I know it's the same as January 1st but I've got to start some where. I am going to keep going until I get there. 

I started this workout yesterday morning. (June 29th 2012, Friday) but I did not check my weight before I did it though...and I did it again today morning (June 30th 2012, Saturday). I'll do it again until July 28th 2012, and see the results

The Worlds Fastest Workout Experiment

Start: June 29th 2012 

Start Weight (as of June 30th 2012): 75kg - 165lbs

Proposed End: July 28th 2012

Proposed End Weight: 50kg - 110lbs

I know some of you may thing that this is unrealistic, but I am going to try and see if it is possible to actually loose 25kg in a month with this full body 4 minute workout, plus doing my everyday activities. 

Lets see how it goes.

Vision Board 2012

Good day readers,

I finally purchased an actual board where I can pin stuff up to. The day I got it, I was so excited to start printing pictures and pinning them up to the board.

If you look closely you can see the different parts of my vision board, starting with my hair and body, on to a perfect relationships, down to traveling and seeing the world, and finally clothes. And of course 'the secret check'

I am in love with my vision board because of it I realized that there are some things that I don't really want, like a certain style of clothing that I know will not suit my body. This board is pinned up next to my bed, and I love where it is because when I get up, that's one of the first things I see, and when I go to bed, it's one of the last things I see. So it's perfect.

When I first set up my vision board a month ago, I have changed it 3 times. This just shows that having vision board actually word. It's something that everyone show have. It doesn't have to be physical, it can be on your computer, you can make some on photoshop as well if you like.

Vision boards are awesome! Its a more organized way to get your priorities straight. Its a way to know what you want. I encourage you all to make yourself one right now. Fill it up with all the random things you want, be creative and decorate it so that it'll catch your eye quicker. Remember, the only reason for a vision board is so that you can look at it and imagine yourself having those things. 

Updates (6.12.2012)

Good day my lovely readers,
I apologize for not posting anything up since March, I swear I've been meaning too but I seem to have lost my inspiration to do so, but now I've got it.

I just want this post to be about the updates on my lifestyle and how it's going, since using the Law of Attraction have become apart of me, and I cannot think of another way of living without it. Everything makes so much more sense because of it.

Lets start with the thing I've been focusing on for 3 years now. My Body. 
I am happy to report that it's going great! Even if I am not 50kg, I've got the body I've wanted or what I've been faintly imagining, I may want to loose some more here and there but for the past 3 years I haven't really been thinking or making it clear what I want my ideal body to look like, I wasn't quite sure on how it'll turn out. So every time I would sit and meditate, I would imagine my body, but not as clearly as I see other things. But what made me go through it, what made me feel happy about myself, what made my 'ideal body journey' go great is be loving myself. I've mentions in my previous blog posts, that loving yourself is one of the keys of getting you ideal body.

"One must love oneself for others to love you" some might say but I say "To get any where in life, One must love oneself"


I haven't weighed myself since I got back from the Philippines last month, but I have been doing my weekly yoga routine and eating whatever that makes me feel good and at the end of every night I would always feel great. Well to be honest, not every night, I would feel extremely tired during the night sometimes, just to be realistic.

The next thing to discuss is My Ideal Man.
I do not know if you all read my review of "Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man" by Steve Harvey on my book, fashion and food blog.
If you didn't here it is "Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man"

So, about my ideal man, I bet you all are wondering if I found him, aha. I thought I did. Turns out it wasn't him. I know most of you are thinking "you will never know if he's the one until the right time comes" or something like that. Yes, I approve of your judgement and beliefs, but I have my beliefs as well, which is making a list of the features of my ideal guy and using the power of thought and action to bring him to me. I know that maybe the end result will not be exactly according to my list but at least it is what I hoped for.

About the book, "Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man". It's a great book. I am extremely happy that a man has finally written a book like this. It just filled with information about men and relationships, I encourage all the ladies reading this to read it.
I am going to use this information as my basis, and soon, perhaps in a few months time, my time will come when I will finally have a date to a party or be on a date for once in my life at least!

My Ideal Job
I think I've said this in my older posts. "I will always go back to cooking".  Which is completely true. I cannot believe it. It just happened one day, during my break between my classes, I decided to google "La Cordon Bleu" and decided to visit their site. I found that they have branches all over the world, obviously not close to my country. This help me decide that I wanted to take masters in culinary arts, or at least a vocational course. This helped me decide my future. But the probability of me actually attending La Cordon Bleu is 4.5:10. When I spoke to my mum about it, and what branch I would like to go to (which was either Australia or Paris) what she was focusing on was the accent I was going to have when I come back. Then of course she asked if it was really culinary what I wanted to do in my future. When she asked me that question, I hesitated, and said "I guess, I think so" I was still unsure.
Even if I am unsure about my future, I have a plan, I have choices, I've made a list of what to do after I'm done with university.

I am going to be finishing university in precisely 6 months time. I know it will go by fast as a bullet train but I think I want to make the best of it. It'll be my last years of actually being a kid and being immature and all that.

I guess that's it. My 3 main things I want in life. Body, Man, Job. 
For now, that's it my fellow readers.
Until next time.

Imperfection

Good day my lovely readers.
I give my apologies for not blogging since new years. I've been trying to figure out what exactly to write about for the past 3 months, and now I know.

"IMPERFECTION"

I myself have a slight obsessive compulsive disorder, but not with things around me, but with myself. Everything that comes to me have to be perfect. My body, my man, my career choice. They have to be perfect. Everything has to fit perfectly into my life.

Most people say "Nobody is perfect". Whenever they say that to me, the first thing that pops in my head is, "pfft...anyone can be perfect" What I mean by that is anyone can be perfect in their own ways. Its like how you have your tea, some prefer it with more sugar, and its perfect, some prefer it with more milk, and its perfect.

Ever since I found that I could get things with the Law of Attraction, I realize that I could get PERFECTION. As most of you know that I've been on my weight loss journey since 2010, and since then I've made multiple deadlines throughout the years in which I would be come my ideal weight and have my ideal body. When I would reach my deadline, my weight would either still be the same, lessen or increase. I didn't have my ideal body nor was I my ideal weight.

This year 2012, I've made another deadline, March 14th 2012. In Japan is White Day. White Day is when a boy returns his love to the girl he likes by giving them chocolates, this event only happens in Japan. Its such a sweet event.

The reason why I chose this date is, well, I don't really know. I just chose it, thinking that it would mean something special to me.

As the day passed, I checked my weight, I hoped that I would at least loose a few kg's but instead I gained 2kg's. How depressing. I went like "Wtf am I doing wrong?"(excuse my language). I took a few minutes to stop and think of my actions so far, I said to myself "what is it? I must be doing something wrong. Think all over again" 

So I thought all over again, from the very beginning. I asked myself "What would I do in my ideal weight? How would I be like? How will my life be? How will I act?"

Last year, I had written on my ideal body vision board "To have an easy time finding the right size of clothes for me", "To go shopping", "To say thank you everyday", "to feel confident and comfy wherever I go"

I noticed that when I reread what I had written last year, To the universe, I already am my ideal weight and already have my ideal body. Now I realized that I am not doing anything wrong. I'm doing what I had written a year ago. What I wanted to be, and I am where I wanted to be a year ago.
I've changed the way I see myself in my ideal body. My sense of style has changed, my sense of thought has changed. The way I see perfection in my life has changed. I've grown.

When things like this happens in life, things that don't work out, things that disappoints you. Stop. Relax. Think of what you initially wanted. How it all fits in.

Here is a tip: When you want something, write it down. If you don't want anyone to see it, write it down in a notebook or a small paper, and keep it hidden, and hopefully you'll remember where you kept it. Reread what you had written a month later, and see how you feel about it.

♥...Love all...♥
