Can You Handle Me?

December24

Have you ever heard of lovehandle? Yes that’s correct those extra weight around our waist. But have you ever heard of Bananahandle? Neither am I (at first). It’s the non-slip handle grip, which is crowned as appealing.

As I see how this Bananahandle is being used, I cracked up. What on earth inspire the designer to make a handle grip with the form of a banana. Are she/he targeting for the irony of it? Well banana is slippery just ask all those clowns.  Why do you wanted to use a slippery thing to be the shape of you non-slip handle grip? Off course for the irony!

How to use it? Just slide the ripe yellow peel onto any pan handle and you’re fully protected, hands down.

Do Vote

November3

 

Q: If you have a vote to change the face of a country would you use that vote?

 

Well…I certainly will :) And I did several years ago, I always vote.

 

Interestingly, a campaign that speaks about the notion of “voting” for younger generation has emerged on youtube. This video has 2 versions. And both have uses celebrity as their endorser (no big surprise there). Apparently the first version doesn’t spark enough attention; perhaps it’s due to the celebrity effect. 

 

In the second video, the video uses better known celebrity such as:
Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Cruise, Cameron Diaz, Snoop Dogg, Harrison Ford, Julia Roberts, Ben Stiller, Will Smith, Steven Spielberg, Justin Timberlake, along with Sacha Baron Cohen as Borat, Zach Braff, Colin Farrell, Neil Patrick Harris, Scarlett Johansson, Shia LeBeouf, Tobey Maguire, Ryan Reynolds, and Jason Segal

 


 

Question: “Why do we still need convincing? We do know if we don’t vote then we are not in control anymore. We do know that our “one vote” could change the face of the country. Do we??”

 

PS: I will vote in 2009 (At least I think I will)

12% chances

September25

This is a survey that one of leading woman’s magazine in Indonesia has conduct. They surveyed 80 men between 25-35 years old on “What type of woman attracts you”.

What’s interesting about the result? Well it’s a small survey, but now I know why it is so hard to find and have a relationship with man. I’m a curly girl with tanned skin; see the result and you’ll know why.

  • 43% says that they like fair skin with straight hair. That would be around 34 people voice. Perhaps they see to many shampoos commercial? 
  • 25% says that they like fair skin with curly hair. This would be the voice of around 20 people. 
  • 20% says that they prefer tanned skin with straight hair. This would be the choice of let see … humm oh yeah 16 people.
  • And the last one, 12% says that they prefer tanned skin with curly hair. Sadly for me, its about 10 people who prefer it. 

 

What are my odds?

The small survey concluded that Indonesian man do prefer woman with fairer skin. 68% of the respondent has spoken their mind. See, this is why I insisting on buying all that scrubs, and body whitening product. Although none of them actually worked and I end up loving my tanned skin even more. I think I know why all those whitening stuff is such a hit, because men endorse them hehehe

The second fact is that curly hair will always be 2nd best compare to straight hair. Perhaps men doesnt care that the newest hit around hair today is a curly hair because 63% of the respondent choose it and well bad news for me because since the day I was born my hair has been a tangled curl and never ever change since. Tried to make it straight, but I guess in the end the curliness is very strong and I end up with a curly wurly hair until now. 

This leave me with only 12% chances of scoring a relationship. Oh this survey result troubles me :)

Face Test day#7

September24

Oh my, it’s the last day of my rich moisture facial test. Is it working? After being so attentive with my facial treatment, I shall share my personal experience:

01. The truth is, I really think the idea to test the effect on moisturizer upon your facial skin for 7 days is not enough. Perhaps there is a slight different on your skin appearance. But like any other changes, there’s no such thing as immediate change. Well that is unless you do some plastic surgery or having botox shoot.

02. Face smoothness, I don’t know which one works for my skin. The fact that the moisturizer really help my skin to glow, or is it simply because I clean and treat my facial skin the way it should have been. But my face is definitely have more glow to it and it felt softer than before

03. I would love to have a healthier skin. This “moisturize your face before you sleep” tips, is perhaps working. But I think it need a little more than just a mere 1 week to actually do you wonders.  Perhaps I would extend the experiment for another 4 weeks = 1 month. Perhaps then I would see the difference. Oh yeah, I’ve been using the same moisturizer for a week. It’s dramatically different moisturizing lotion from Clinique. 

We’ll see if my second attempts actually works and I would be able to feel the dramatically different (as in dramatic softness, dramatic glow, dramatic smoothness).
