It is always Cola's sister favourite things to do for her pass time. I have been trying to involve her in tasks that she can handle.

Today, we dedicded to make jellies with Ningxia Red. Our ingredients:

Melt the ingredients and bring them to boil. 
Let it cool down before pouring into the mould.

Self Interrogation

After being away from blogging for a few years and come back, I found that blogging is still a very good therapy for me to relax.

Through blogging, I get to know myself better. I am glad that I am back to blogging again but maybe not active in this blog, but in the other blog Essential Oil Castle.

Regardless which blog that I am posting, it is still something that presenting myself, a carefree soul, the King of the Castle.

Different from few years back, this time I blog using my real identity. Haha!

朴树 - 《平凡之路》

好听的旋律,人生到了这般年龄,对歌词里的意境多多少少也有些感触。 自己一向以来除了悲伤的爱情歌曲,对于这些长着人生历练的歌,励志的歌都很喜欢。

徘徊著的 在路上的 你要走吗 Via Via
易碎的 骄傲著 那也曾是我的模样
沸腾著的 不安著的 你要去哪 Via Via
谜一样的 沉着的 故事你真的 在听吗

我曾经跨过山和大海 也穿过人山人海
我曾经拥有着的一切 转眼都飘散如烟
我曾经失落失望 失掉所有方向
直到看见平凡 才是唯一的答案             

我曾经毁了我的一切 只想永远地离开
我曾经堕入无边黑暗 想挣扎无法自拔
我曾经像你像他 像那野草野花
绝望着 也渴望着 也哭也笑平凡著
  
时间无言 如此这般 明天已在 Via Via
风吹过的 路依然远 你的故事讲到了哪

人啊!适时候要让自己归零,不要害怕失去,因为你所拥有的也不是永恒。不要执著,向前走,向前走。。。哭也好`,笑也好,继续走,继续修我们人生的课业。


**p/s: 儿子,你听歌的风格比我还另类,那么小就哼这个,你是早熟吗?不过不要紧,唱妈妈爱听的,统统都批!

Self reward or Birthday gift

So I bought the Premium Starter Kit from Young Living after a few weeks of using essential oils and notice the improvement it brings to me.

2 boxes delivered to my doorstep.


Feeling loved.

AND

TA-DAH!

This is what I got!

Besides from the Premium Starter Kit, I also bought the ART facial cleanser, and 2 types of essential oils. And I got an extra bottle of essential oil as gift from Young Living.

I can't wait for weekend to come, so that I have time to play around with the oils. Just like a kid! But how many times do you get to feel like a kid when you are getting older? Right?

A little bit of sharing on Lavender Essential Oil

I shared about my journey of adding Lavender Essential Oil in my skin care regime in other blog which is all about essential oil.

It has to be at least a post or two in my personal blog because I mentioned about it in one of my new year resolution post that I would want to have clear skin with no pimples.

I am not sure how far can Lavender Essential Oil bring me to, but at least after one and a half month using it, I can see big improvement on my skin

I have this very bad habit that cause pimples keep growing and getting worse. I will scratch on the pimples and try to remove the pus (if there is any) with my fingers whether consciously or unconsciously. A Habit, that is. And you know how bad it is when I touched the pimples with fingers that brings bacteria, it gets inflamed.

Lavender essential oil has this anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties which really helps a lot. When the pimples can grow in an normal environment, without the bacterial help, it will not get worse further.

Secondly, lavender essential oil also help me to sooth and calm my skin, I apply it at night, and my skin get to rest and recover effectively. Somehow, the aroma of the lavender essential oil on my face did improve my sleep. I wake up with more energy and feel good these days. With good sleep, my body get to repair the cells and tissues faster.

I am just sharing based on my personal experience without scientific-proven how it really helps me.

I am truly happy with the effect that Lavender Essential Oil brings to me and exploring what other essential oil can further improve my skin for example lighten the scar and slow down the aging appearance. I am still a newbie here, when I share about my experience in using eo with my friends, most of them have already heard about it and using it. So, do share with me if you are willing to. Hehe.
