A Commuter's Life

It must be painful if someone has to go through an operation on the face. I must know. I went for a facial just once and pricking those pimples and trying to remove those white and blackheads were really painful. No pain, no gain? How much more if those are acne and big pimples? How scrutinizing it could be? After the acne was removed, acne scar removal would follow. Now, that is another painful process. I could not blame people who just let things be and drop lines, love me for who I am and what I am.

One of my office mates who I am quite close with reminded me to take care of myself. You know, as in the beauty side. She noticed that I do not wear any make up. She told me, “Even if you are sure that your husband loves you very much, it does not mean that you will stop making yourself beautiful in his eyes.” It makes sense , huh! Now, I am into beauty products and eye cream reviews. I wonder what will happen to my outside appearance once I get addicted to it. Will I really become more beautiful? Ahem…

One of my friends who is a real beauty conscious told me that if I have plans to take care of my skin, I should start early. She is only in her thirties and yet, she is already applying so many anti-aging products not only on her face but all over her body. I do not see any difference though.   Just kidding! Of course, there is! Her skin is as smooth as silk. She said that her skin was not like that until she applied beauty products. Okay, I will start with lotion. Yes, I am not fond of using lotion nor conditioner for the hair. Maybe I am not that conscious? Anyways, I know that my friend has a point. I must start taking care of my skin now. I am nearing 40. But you know, I look like 20! Ha,ha,ha! Yes, I am just kidding!

Today is my rest day. I have decided that I will start today my diet. He,he,he! Do I hear my friends saying, AGAIN?

Yesterday, I went to the bank. I walked from the bank going back to the office. That was around fifteen minutes walk. I am glad that I could still do that without any shortness of breath experienced. But, I am really getting old. I even need now the best wrinkle cream for some lines already showing up. Why am I thinking of making myself beautiful all of a sudden? Well, my husband is glowing these days. He is taking Vitamin E and it is really doing him good. To add, he is really more good looking than I am. Even though we have a twelve years gap in age, him being older, he looks younger than me.

Today is really a good day. It is about to end and I have managed to stick to my diet. One day at a time, I guess.
