Deadlines lead to stress
Stress leads to exhaustion
Exhaustion leads to depression
Depression leads to… WRINKLES!

Yep that’s right. Having a stressful lifestyle will definitely make you look old. Studies show that stress causes wrinkles and so to avoid wrinkles, we must have a stress-free lifestyle. However a stress-free life is ideal and is almost impossible to have. So the next best thing you can do to look young is to apply a face wrinkle cream regularly.

Choose a brand that is hypoallergenic and contains no alcohol. Better if you get your product from your dermatologist because there are plenty of imitations in the market today. To be sure, buy your products directly from your doctor. This might cost a little more but you can be certain that you are getting what you paid for. Just a tip: Apply the cream at night before you sleep. Just be sure you cleansed your face before applying the cream or else you’ll just create a breeding ground for bacteria.

Still wondering how those body builders achieve that figure? Well it is not only because of their patience and determination in going to the gym but because of a little help from supplements. I asked some of my body builder friends and they admit they use certain muscle boosting pills. Supplements with an hgh releaser is ideal for body building. HGH by the way stands for human growth hormones. Naturally, HGH is responsible for cell regeneration and growth. So if you are lifting weights, taking these supplements will help your muscles heal faster. Now I’m just wondering how Human Growth Hormones are extracted and packaged in a pill… hmmm….

I’m out this early to get a good gift for my Aunt Linda who’s birthday is on Sunday. To get an idea on what she would love to receive, I asked my cousin (her daughter) yesterday what her mom would like to get as a gift. She suggested that I get more of the wrinkle removing creams that her mom uses.

Looking at wrinkle cream reviews I found out that my Aunt is using one of the best anti wrinkle creams available. The problem is I can’t find any store selling that brand. Fortunately, a sales lady suggested a nearby mall that might have what I’m looking for.

And so I’m now in the mall (at McDonald’s) getting breakfast and using WiFi. I seem to have gotten here too early because it’s only 9 a.m. and the stores open at 10.  Anyhow, I hope that I find that cream fast because it’s only two days ’til my Aunt’s birthday.

It’s almost summer in my country! Although I’m quite happy with my current figure right now, I still think I need to get a quick trim on my belly. I want it really flat and sexy so I can wear this gorgeous red bikini I saw in the mall.

It’s a good thing my company tied up with the Bikram Yoga studio near my place. Right now I’m able to attend the 6:30 p.m. yoga classes at least twice a week. This will definitely help me maintain my figure. For the belly problem, my doctor advised me to trim down on salty foods since it causes water retention making my belly look bloated. This one’s going to be really tough. I’m a salt fan after all. I’d choose salty food over desserts at anytime!

Oh well, no pain, no gain. Less salt diet it is!

Yes, as paradoxical as the concept seems, I think I may have actually stumbled across a magical (albeit utterly useless) diet pill that makes you gain weight!

I was reading a one of those how to lose weight articles in a health magazine one day at a nail spa which read as drab as any other marketing ploy – except for one thing: the headline read “Lose/Gain Weight”. Now, with society’s demands as ridiculous as they are these days, one would think that this was, indeed, a sign that people had literally started going mad. Nonetheless, I read on out of sheer morbid fascination as to what kind of “scientific” explanations they had to offer as to how exactly this revolutionary feat was possible.

Alas, my attention was irrevocably called to a hot young stud that strutted through the door to pick up what was probably the flavor of the night. I never got to find that page to read what was on it, but it makes you wonder, how many would really bite on such a dodgy diet pill review? How far will people really go to avoid simply living a healthier lifestyle?

Ever wish your office furniture could somehow transform into a full fitness club? There are days at the office where we feel that by sitting behind a desk for almost half an entire day, our fitness levels are steadily declining. I know I do.

My friend used to lift me here and there like a feather and now I seem to be getting dragged along everywhere we go. So what I wanted to know is, how do you turn your everyday office furniture into some kind of a quick 15-to-30-minute fitness arena? Preferably not in a way that would have me lunging from one desk to another like some kind of wild animal, or causing irreparable damage to office furniture.

I found a blog that allowed me to do just that! Here’s an example: while sitting, lift up until your hips are just hovering over our office chair, arms out for balance. Hold that for 2-3 seconds, and then stand all the way up and repeat for 16 reps. Sounds easy, but believe me, after 16 reps, your boss will be wondering what (or who) is causing to get all sweaty during your office break.

Before my sister’s wedding on the 16th, we had a pre-nuptial dinner today. This was actually the first time both families met since her fiancé is a foreigner and his entire family came to our country for the first time just for the wedding. Isn’t that sweet?

Anyway, during the dinner, I was really amazed when I saw the groom’s mom – she was gorgeous! She looked like she’s merely in her thirty’s! I was so stricken by her appearance that I decided to I approach her after the dinner toasts, complimented her amazing appearance, asked how she maintained that amazing figure. I was expecting her to recommend a good fat burner like hydroxycut, but her answer to my question made me even more astonished; She laughed and simply said “It’s in the genes.”

Lucky her.

Last Saturday I had fun playing around with the barcode scanner while my sister picks up things she would like to have for her wedding at the Bridal Registry. From Colorwave Pitcher Blue Dinnerware to the Mattress Pad-Queen Afi Crown Bed and Bath and Tefal Eureka Blu Cookware Set Kitchenware… of course, those are just suggestions to the would-be guests.

Then again, personally, I think having a Bridal Registry is the way to go nowadays; especially if you want to avoid having two or more rice cooker or toaster – it’s every newlywed’s nightmare. Also, knowing that you may be receiving a matching dining set to go with your furniture is definitely something to look forward to when opening the gifts after the wedding, don’t you think?

So, next time you decide to buy a wedding present, check out first if the couple’s listed at the gift registry.

YEY! XBOX NIGHT! So okay…every 3 weeks, we have this xbox night normally it’s done at Pete’s place, mainly because he’s a cook, so it’s a given that we’ll be pigging on GOOD GOOD FOOD whenever the party is held there. It’s supposedly “Pot luck” but on one dares to bring amy food just because Pete’s sumptuous dinner and finger foods can make any of our best dishes seem like crap. After 5 types of main courses and 6 types of finger foods we were all fat. We were ready to get butchered. You can probably see my fat at 5$ per kilo.

So our “potluck”’ consisted of tequila rose, el hombre, jack daniel’s, Johnny walker, etc. Name it..we brought it. After a while Sergey and Joey were drunk on alcohol, good food, and xbox. They made little sighs of “life is good” as they were lounging their temporary fat ass.
I didn’t go over board that night. I had my own xbox night episode that I never what that to happen ever again.

T’was fun mates! Till the next one!

Have you ever tried playing the Rockband game in ps3? Well, it was the first time we (me and my friends) tried doing that and the only thing I can say about it is… HELL YEAH! Damn it was so fun. We were invited by Linda to try out her new PS3 that her mother bought for her. We never enjoyed a house party as much as we did last night. All my friends were shouting and jumping around like the foo fighters hehe. I, on the other hand, was just seated at the back – PLAYING THE DRUMS! Wohoooo!

After the exhausting gameplay, we headed straight to the garden. Linda’s Mom was just so hospitable and cool, she even made us grilled burgers. Imagine that… rockband game plus outdoor grilling, what more could you ask for?
