Project One: Make Ice Cream
Monday, June 1st, 2009 | Delicious
I have been to over three grocery stores today and all of them don’t have any stock of my favorite ice cream flavor. This has happened to me twice already and I just can’t stand going through this again. I have decided to make ice cream myself starting now.
I already have my ice cream mixer and all the ingredients I would need to make my very own version of frozen dessert. Before I make a complicated flavored ice cream, I decided to first make the basic and most well-loved ice cream flavor—vanilla.
Taking the sugar, milk, and cream, I mix everything well together in a pan and constantly stir it in low heat. After that, I add vanilla to the mixture and chill it in the fridge. After a few hours, I take the chilled mixture out and place it inside the ice cream mixer. The ice cream mixer thickens the consistency and the texture of the mixture. Once the ice cream has a thick consistency, I take it out. I can either serve it soft serve or I can place it in a plastic container and freeze it some more to be able to achieve the hardness of the normal ice cream.
Prom Time

Prom only happens once in a lifetime. It is every girl’s dream to attend such a grand occasion. Prom time is that time of the month wherein phone lines are burning because of endless talks with girlfriends as to what dress to wear and who to bring to the prom.
On prom night, once the dress is carefully picked out and worn, it is time for hair and makeup. Prom hairstyles are not over the top nor is it too laid back. It should be properly pinned or tied back with beautiful ribbons and pins. Prom hairstyles are meant to look fun, flirty and age appropriate.
Makeup application for prom night is not necessary but is recommended. Prom makeup should be light and carefree. Foundation is not really needed for young girls. Just a light powder will be enough to highlight young skin. Minimum blush should also be applied just to make the cheeks a bit rosier. A shiny lipgloss should be applied to enhance the lips.
A perfect prom look is glittery and shimmery. Glitter makeup can be applied near the eyes, shoulders and arms. It should also be kept into minimum to avoid appearing like a disco ball. Enjoy your prom night! Look beautiful and feel beautiful.

Cash Advance Loans: I Lost the Envelope!
Wednesday, May 6th, 2009 | Business
My boss told me to be in charge of the envelopes for the bonus of our department. He asked me to provide the envelopes for everyone. I bought a set of envelopes and wrote the name of each employee in our department. Once I finished I immediately handed him the envelopes. He placed the money inside the envelopes and signed them. Before I left he asked me if I could hand them the envelopes as he was in a hurry to go to a meeting. I gladly said yes and distributed the envelopes. Three of the employees were not around because of an in site project they have. Since my boss already left I had no choice but to keep the envelopes. I brought them at home but to my surprise, I can not seem to find the envelopes that night. I was already panicking as it would reflect a lot especially on me. I have given up on looking for the envelopes and resorted to cash advance loans in the internet. The next morning I received the cash I needed. I placed them inside the new envelopes and gave them to my officemates. I was so thankful to the cash advance loan that approved my request. It really saved my day. I was so nervous about it but good thing that I made a solution. When I got home I found the missing envelopes under my bed. It was a luck day still.
All Legal Forms For You
Wednesday, May 6th, 2009 | Business
Did you ever have some problems with what kind of letter or legal form to give when dealing with your banking, financial issues, health, loans and a lot more? Ever since I got a job and graduated from college, I started to have problems on how to address my concerns to different departments. I know that the usual letter will not just do since I have to consider what kind of information to put in the letter, to whom shall it be addressed, what are the things I should not say and the like. After some time I learned to ask questions about the legal forms I have to complete. But then, it takes quite some effort to go to different departments and ask every time I need something.
All this chaos that is caused by legal forms for different purposes really got into my nerves until I found the site about free legal forms. It changed my life and made it easier for me. When I need any form of request, authorization letter, complaint etc. I just open my computer and with a click I can choose whatever I need. I don’t have to go about the fuss of asking people about what I need to write because I can access the format of the letter that I need even when I am home.
Belly Dancing
Thursday, April 30th, 2009 | Delicious
A friend told me about how she lost weight by belly dancing and I was amazed by the results. My friend looked fit and trim. She invited me to join one of her classes soon and I accepted.
I discovered that belly dancing effective helps shed calories and fat with each constant movement. After a few belly dancing sessions, I felt my balance, posture, and flexibility improve. I also felt more graceful and relaxed. What I also love about belly dancing is the wonderful, exotic costumes that I get to wear. I love the shiny ornate coin belt and the sound that it makes when I shimmy my hips to the rhythm.
With my constant belly dancing, I felt my hips, thighs and abdomen tighten. I was so happy when I discovered that I lost two inches from my waistline. I love the feel of sweat dripping on my back while I move my hips and arms. I sometimes imagine I’m in the Middle East dancing in front of Sheiks.
Now, I encourage most of my friends to try belly dancing as well. Not only is it fun, but it can help improve self-confidence. It also coordinates body movements and increases energy.
Quincy’s Presents
Thursday, April 30th, 2009 | Delicious
Quincy turned fifteen years old today. When his mother woke him up this morning, he was greeted with a large birthday cake with fifteen lighted candles.
That afternoon, Quincy invited some friends over for his birthday party. They came bearing gifts for him and that made Quincy really happy. At his party, they played pin the tail on the donkey and numerous parlor games. Quincy also tried to hit a piñata but missed by a few inches. A friend of his finally hit it after a few tries and out came lots of candies and chocolates. They had a great time picking and eating each one up.
After spaghetti, cake, and ice cream, it was time for presents. There was a huge pile of gifts in the middle of the family room and Quincy started opening each one of them. He received various toys such as remote controlled cars and Transformers robots. But what attracted his attention most was an entire slot car set. With the main car, it also has several slot car tracks and decals. He loved it.
Quincy’s birthday was a blast. He hopes that next year will be more enjoyable. Before he went to bed that day, he thanked his parents for a wonderful birthday.
Hair Makeover
Thursday, April 30th, 2009 | Delicious
All my life, I’ve had chest length hair. My hairstyle depends on my daily mood. On hot days, I tend to wear it up in a ponytail or in a bun. On days that I want to be seductive, I wear it half up and half down. I usually wear my hair down when I sport a revealing top.
Having a long hair requires a lot of maintenance. Constant brushing of the hair is needed to keep it organized especially on an extremely windy day. Numerous hair serums and conditioners are also needed to preserve my hair’s shine and body.
I have finally decided to cut my hair short after all these years. I wanted Rihanna or Posh Spice’s hairstyle. I just hope that the upkeep is not too much. I don’t have the patience to blowdry or iron my hair.
As I sat in the salon chair, my heart started beating faster. Will I look okay? Will my face look big? The stylist assured me that the specific style he has chosen will frame my face and enhance my features. I wanted to stop him when he started snipping my hair but I couldn’t turn back now.
When the stylist was finished, I opened my eyes and saw a younger and beautiful me. I love my hair makeover. I’m glad I did it.

Donna is on her second trimester of pregnancy. She is having a baby girl and the whole family is just so excited.
Even though she is comfortable with the pregnancy, there are several instances that her stomach gets queasy. All throughout her pregnancy, Donna can’t stand the smell of perfumes. She even prohibited her husband from wearing any type of fragrance. Donna also carries a thick handkerchief wherever she goes, so she can cover her nose she smells something unpleasant.
The taste of milk makes Donna want to cry. Though she needs to drink at least one glass daily for calcium, she just covers her nose and forces it down her throat. If that doesn’t work, she mixes a bit of chocolate powder in the milk to make it taste more appealing.
In extreme situations, Donna sometimes doesn’t want to hear the clock ticking. She finds it annoying and even removed the batteries from their several watches at home.
Nine months seems like a long time to wait for the baby to finally come out, but Donna knows that it is worth the wait. She is sure that her daughter will be adorable and cute. She just wishes that her baby with be healthy and normal.
