DIY: Index Card Calendar

I LOVE Pinterest!  If I could pin for a living, I would.  This is proof of my knack for organizing and categorizing.  Lol.  Though, I'm not really a DIY girl, I could do some DIY if I put my mind to it.  So, I attempted one "project" from one of my pins, which was taken from this site.  Basically, its a calendar made of index cards.  I know its too late to start a calendar thing, I guess I'm early for next year. :)

In between each month you have some photos or post cards.  What's special about it is that each card would be stamped for a day and you have the years on the lines.  So, you get to read again what you did the previous year.  I hope that made sense.  You just need a container for your index cards, some photos or post cards, stamp pad and a date stamp.

Sorry for the dust particles on the table. Lol. :)

FOTD

Lately, people have been documenting everything.  Their outfit of the day, meals, shoes, makeup, etc.  I am no make-up artist, but I do like love make-up and everything beauty related.  For make-up they usually call it FOTD (Face Of The Day).  Yesterday, I gathered most of the make-up products I used yesterday and came out with this.

L-R: Pond's BB Cream, Nyx Soft Matte Lip Cream in Antwerp, MAC Studio Fix Powder Foundation in NC 25, In2It Brow Powder, The Body Shop Honey Bronzer (darkest shade, 03), Covergirl mascara, Maybelline Baby Skin Pore Eraser, Naked Palette by Urban Decay, MAC Beguille Brow Set, Smashbox Blush in Proofsheet, Happy Skin Liquid Eyeliner, Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler, Marionnaud Blush Brush and Eyebrow/liner Brush, & Real Techniques Contour Brush

I just want to say that I really enjoyed my last beauty related post, so I might do more of that.  I don't think a day would pass that I won't watch a beauty related video whether it be a "favorites" one or a tutorial.

I realized I use so many products and tools on a daily basis.  I'm sure I'm not the only one though.  I can skip some products if I'm in a hurry, but usually I would just switch up my blush, lipstick, and eye makeup.  If I'm in the mood and would not end up going to the gym, I'd go for foundation.  Also, as you can see, some of the products are very well loved; thus, the beat up look to some of them.  The important thing is to take it off at the end of the day.

FTW Crosses the Street

I live in front of a former gasoline station.  Due to a typhoon way back 2009 (I think), the gasoline station got wrecked.  They cleaned it up and it became a parking lot of some sort.  Eventually, some graffiti was done.

China Wrap

So... I had this China Travel Diary thing that went on last year.  And I was not able to finish it.  Like I mentioned in my previous post, I want to fulfill those things I've meant to finish, so, we have here my final photo blog on the several remaining days for our China 2013 trip.

I have photos of Din Tai Fung, which I wish to visit again in the future. This post is making me hungry!!!

Also, I have two photos of my OOTD.  Lol.

Sorry, this is not so much of a chatty post, but I hope you enjoy it still.

Feeling 2014... Finally.



I have not been consistent.  Here.  Flickr.  And other things I've hoped to be consistent in during the start of the year.  And I do feel bad about it.  So much has been going on in my personal life, but I shall keep this blog a happy place for me.  I'm giving myself another chance in actually fulfilling my commitment to myself so here goes another attempt.  And now that I've actually had a break, I now feel that its definitely 2014, a new year, a new start (although technically, its just a new month, or a new quarter).

Good luck to me!
