clean n clear!

Lately, I've been feeling so tired. Even though I'm not working or just had one class a day, I could feel so exhausted. I think I found my answer. I need more sleep! Lately, I've been sleeping really late, around 1 or 2am. Maybe to some people 2am isnt considered late, but for me that's considered late! I learned that if you sleep early, around say 10pm, the next morning, you'll feel more energized n you will regain more strengh. My sister has been sleeping earlier than me n she told me that it made a real difference of sleeping early. It's good for your health and for your soul. I tried it last week, slept at 10 n guess what? I couldn't sleep! I laid in bed till 12.30 n that's when I fell asleep. Maybe I'm not used to it yet, cause sleeping late has always been a habit for me, but if I tried to sleep at 10 from now on and give it a try for maybe a week or two, then maybe sleeping early can be a new habit. My body will of course be used to this newschedule of mines. So how about we give it a try? Did I also mention that getting good enough of sleep is good for your skin as well? Yea, I did some research. Getting a good amount of sleep is one of the many ways to balance our your diet. Your skin needs rest to rebuild and repair itself. Talking about skin, brings me to my next topic.

Have you ever want to have clear and beautiful skin? I truly envy those who have clear and flawless skin. Lately, I've been having breakouts around my forehead and chin area. Their not one those big red acne, but their so tiny n I just wanna poke em n get rid of em!! I've always been so worried about my skin, face and hair. Those three physical attribute is what I really care about the most. My skin and my hair is llpsuperrrrrr sensitive. My skin isn't oily, but it gets dry easily. Same goes to my hair, it gets dry n I hate it! (hair will be a whole new topic) but anyways,I've been getting these little acne and it driving me nuts. If I were to take a picture of it, I don't think you would be able to see it, but it's obvious for me. When I went to see a dermatologist in indo, the doctor told me that the food you eat has a big impact on your skin (especially chocolate and peanuts). But when I saw the dermatologist here in america, they told me that food doesn't affect your skin whatsoever, and it was just a myth. You know that saying, "you are what you eat", I do actually believe in that.

I'm trying this new thing where i eat less greasy food. In fact, I'm trying not to eat greasy foods at all! Usually, I dont really eat foods that are deep fried anyway. I dont eat mcdonalds or any kind of fast food unless im in a road trip which is like twice a year. So, i guess thats a good thing. ^^ Although the food you eat dont really take an effect of your skin, balancing our nutrition is so important. I'm consuming a whole lot of water and soymilk so my skin will be smooothhh smooth smoooth! im a sucker for clear skin and smooth hair! hahaha....call me crazy. Eating fruits and veggies are also an important diet for your skin, and not to mention, its good for you too! I cant live without fruits and veggies.

Anyways, i hope my plan works out. Getting enough sleep, eating healthier...well see about that! `till then bloggers ;)

blessed day

read :)

I'm writing this while I'm in my way to work. For some reason, my iPhone won't let me blog in blogger, don't know why... I find it really odd.

I've been wanting a sewing machine and a manikin for such a long time! I've always wanted to experience the joy of using a sewing machine n creating whatever I can create from the top of my head. I have so so many ideas that i want to create, but I can't draw. I can't design. I suck at drawing so bad. I guess my talent isn't in that area? This is why I want a sewing machine. Though I can draw, I have a visual illustration in my mind of how I want the results to look like. Anyways, I've been searching for the best sewing machine I can find. I want one that is easy n comfortable you use. No complicated ones. After all, I'm still a beginner so it's reasonable got me to buy a simple one.

For a long time now, I've always dreamt of working inthe fashion industry. I mean, who doesn't? I think all women who loves clothes and fashion would die to work in that field. Before I started my years at the University, I wanted to sign up for FIDM so bad, but my parents won't let me. Ahh, so typical! First, it's a very competitive industry to be in. I mean, everywhere you go there will always be competition. But the way I see it is that people will always want to search for the best designers or buyers, etc...after all, fashion isn't An iimportant field, unlike business. They already have many top fashion designers n other departments in that industry alone. Why need more? So I guess I understood why my parents wouldn't let me go into they field. Second, wherever you go, it is important to have a business background.a few years ago, the vice president of CNN (I'm not sure if it was CNN, I remembered it was a news channel) came to state and talked about job opportunities and the whole talk aboutcollege. He told us that wherever you go, it's a plus to know and have that knowledge of business. A business knowledge is essential. Then, I thought about it...and wow, what he said was complety true. Think about it. If I were to go to fidm, I would only learn about fashion itself. And maybe if I were to have my own line, how am I supposed to sell my products? Who's going to handle my finances? You will need that accounting or marketing background. So I'm very very thankful that I didn't go for fashion because I know in the long run, the field that im in right now, I will benefit from it 120%. I was talking to my business counselor a while back, and she told me that she graduated from fidm, got her aa degree n was lost. She went back to college to study business , cause she knew it was benefical for her.

So am I satisfied with my major right now? Yea, I definetly am. I think the field that I'm in can lead to a lot of different things.Most ppl who graduates with their major doesn't end up working in that field anyway. So right now, it doesn't matter much. As long as I have that business knowledge, then I'm good. Am I forgetting about my fashion? No. I still have that in mind. It's my passion, my hobby. That's why I wanted to buy a sewing machine, n experiment the little or big things I can to with it. I hope someone, anyone who reads this can get something out of it.
Olrighttt guys,, this blog is getting out of control. ^^ sorry for this long post n thanks for reading :)

randomness

hey all,

I hope everyone's havin a great week, `cause I sure didnt! My exam on monday didnt went so well, and maybe yall might be thinking that it's just an exam...BUT for me, it's not just an exam. For once, I really studied super hard, stayed up until morning, working my a** off, and guess what? right when I got the exam, I went completely blank. This never EVER NEVER EVER happened to me before, and I was devasted! Seriously....I even cried. I know, I'm such a crybaby, call me sensitive! i dont care! It was such a bad way to start my week. And you know what's even worse? I had past exams from my friends, and not just me, but everyone who is in that class has the old exams. I studied almost everything, and you know what? the exam version i recieved was the SAME exact version of the old exam. I reviewed it right before I stepped into that class; the chamber of death! and guess what?! I WENT BLANK! Do you have any idea how devastating that is?! I literallly couldnt think. I HAVE ALL these formulas...MC=MR, on and on and on....and I was just completely blank. Man..it was the worse day of my life, Im tellin u! But.....I learned my lesson. I learned that I SHOULDVE gotten enough sleep before the exam, and maybe i should have studied more? The only thing that I couldnt accept till now is the fact that i went blank when really, i KNEW the answers to everything. :( I dont know whats up with me and exams man...its like bad luck everytime i walk in for a test. NO KIDDING....Anyways, I will do better next time. I WILL. :)

This semester I'm only taking 2 classes which equals to 9 units. it sucks really bad. I've never been in a position where i took only 3 classes. Im so used to taking alot of classes, and this semester is kind of new to me just taking 3 classes. It's not pretty laid back though, considering the fact that all my classes are one of the hard core classes in the business department.

ill post more later, my show is coming on soon!!! hahah sorry! :)

blessed day,

jes

Hi everybody...

Happy Valentines day to everyone and to all you lovers out there! I hope ya`ll had a great valentines day, cos I sure did! Thanks hun for the roses, they are beautiful and also for the romantic dinner....(although I had a wrong choice of entree.) ^^ Cepet bgt ya rasanya...uda 2 taon kita pacaran. aku bersyukur bgt for everything that you`ve done for me selama 2 taon ini. aku percaya the best is yet to come... So overall, Vals day this year was quite a success, despite the fact that it was raining hard and we didnt bring any umbrella at all! But anyway, i enjoyed it to the fullest.

Its almost 12.30 am n` I'm not sleepy yet, though i should be sleeping cause i need to wake up super early to study for my mgmt exam on monday! ughhh...

A few days ago, my friends and I was talking about our greatest pet peeves and I just thought of sharing it with you guys since its late and I CANT SLEEP yet... hehhee...There are 3 major petpeeves that I just cant stand at all. Dont take it offensive or personal in any way, this is just been my main petpeeves that i personally can NOT stand at all.

First, I can not stand prank callers. I dont understand what's their deal. What do they get out of it? It annoys me so much, and its the most immature and foolish act you can ever do. Ever since last year, I've been getting prank calls from some annoynomous person and that block number has been calling me several NUMEROUS times every SINGLE day. And i dont mean calling and hanging up. They would call me very late at night or sometimes in the morning, and they would call me constantly without speaking. Its completely unneccessary. A few weeks ago, that same person called me 52+ time constantly. It was to the point that I felt harassed. Grow up n` get a life. I used to laugh about it, but now its not even funny anymore. Its a form of harrassment and if i could track that person down, I would in a heartbeat. I would be thrilled and love to know who has been prank calling me these past couple of months. But... I finally changed my number, and so I guess I'm save now.

Second, people who hate or dislike me for no complete reason. Dont get me wrong, I could care less if people dislike me for whatever reason, but its the fact that some people who hates me doesnt even know the real me. It just bothers me because I obviously did`nt do anything to them, and here, they are hating me. Why? i dont understand you. If you dont like me, that's fine. If you want to criticize me, thats fine with me too. But at least give me a concrete reason as to why you dislike me. And if i hurt anyone or said something wrong, then I'm sorry. But there is no reason to hate and criticize people that you dont KNOW at all. Get to know the person before you make any judgements. I used to be one of them, but I realized that it was wrong. I know that I'm not perfect as a person, and i would love to be better, that's why i chose to stop criticizing people by the way they look, especially. I realized that people who criticize other people are`nt satisfied with their own life. Look yourself in the mirror...Please, noone in this world is perfect.

Lastly, i dont know if this is considered as a petpeeve, but i am realllllyyyy realllllyyy reallllyyyy disgusted by people who CAN NOT flush the toilet in public restrooms. SERIOUSLY, it's really disgusting and unrespectful to other people. Is it so hard to just flush after yourselves? I really can not stand bathroom stalls that are dirty. I understand that "public" restrooms arent supposed to be clean and shiny, but it's really not that hard to flush the toilet!!!

"Top 5 Destination Places I want to go before I die"

I`ve always wanted to travel. Who does`nt want to travel all over the world? Although there are many MANY MANY places that I want to visit, I know its just too impossible. So I roughly cut them down to 5, and these top 5 places are a must go places before I die. :)

(1.) Alaska

I know. You must be wondering 'why in the world would you go to Alaska?' I dont know why. I've always been fascinated by the wonders of that place. The snow...The mountains...the weather...talk about whales! I want to experience the lifestyle of the people that lives there. Their lifestyle must be different then mines, since Alaska is nothing but snow and mountains? I want to at least have the experience before I die. Oh, and do people really live in igloos? (sp?) hahah....duhh, i dont even know.

(2.) Paris, France

Who would`nt want to go to Paris!? Paris, in my eyes is one of the most romantic must go places, and yes, I will go there someday :) The fashion...The city...The food...the lights at night..it's simply wonderful. Of course, someday when I'm married, I will go there with my hubby. The main reason why I want to go there is for its fashion. Although I cant draw or design clothes or what not, I always admire those top designers and I'm truly inspired by those top models i see in the runway. Maybe someday I can be part of the fashion industry, but for now, all i can do is try to be successful in whatver I'm doing, and maybe...just maybe, in the future fashion may be my calling.

(3.) Bahamas

When I was deciding what island I want to visit, I felt stuck. There is Hawaii, Cabo, Bali...and many many other islands that would be so romantic to go to especially for honeymoon. heheh. But, again, I'm fascinated by the beaches there. Seems so relaxing and one of the hit places I would want to go for my honeymoon. But again, I cant decide that now. I know I would change my mind overtime...haha. If you guys dont know me, I'm in love beaches. I love it, especially on a beautiful sunny day. I can lay down in the beach the whole day, watching the waves and just enjoying the weather without being disturbed.

(4.) Africa

I have a passion to help the people of Africa. If I had the fund to help them right now, I would go there in a heart beat. I've seen many commercials/donations in TV of those kids in Africa that is in deep need of food, shelter and education. But i dont trust those people that holds those donations. I would donate if I knew where my money is going to, but the truth is we dont know where the money is going. They advertise saying that our money will help the people of Africa, but honestly, I would just go there myself and give money, food, toys etc...MYSELF. Maybe that time isnt anytime soon, but I want to go there someday, and I will help even if I cant help anyone. I'm aware that the cost to even going there is very costly, and yes, its very corrupted, but if I was rich or if i HAD enough money to help those people, I would. Again, its my opinion, noone has to agreee with ME.

(5.) empty

I left the last one empty, because it can be anything? Ill leave the 5th one blank for me to decide later. Theres just too many places to decide to go, its so hard to decide.

If people want to comment and say bad things about my blog then you might as well not comment, because it is my blog, and clearly, I can say whatever I feel like saying. So, if you have your opinion, write it in your own blog, ok? thank you :)

Have you ever felt as though your life is so limited? I tend to think about my future too much. Some say its a good thing, some say its something that I shouldnt worry about at this moment. When I think about my future, I think about living here in the States. Never in my mind did I thought about living in a different country. I love America, I see myself living here and having a family here in the future. I have so many hopes and dreams...so many things I want to accomplish. I see myself being successful here in America. But lately, I realized that it doesnt matter where I am. It doesnt matter where I live. As long as the place I'm in, is a place where I can be successful and happy, then that's all it matters. My mind tells me that America is the place I should be forever, my home. I guess my perspective has changed. I no longer care where I end up later in future anymore. It doesnt matter to me where I will end up. I know whereever I will be will be my calling, and the place I will land is God's plan for me. I'm accepting changes. I believe that's what will make me a stronger as an individual.

As humans, were not perfect. I've made many mistakes in the past..may it be personal things, or education....I know i should have done better. But you know what? I never regret a single day. I realized that the mistakes I made pushes me to go foward and be better. I want to be the best. A few weeks ago, my professor was talking about the economy and how America isnt getting better, but getting worse. In times like this, he said, we students should strive harder and take education to a higher level. We shouldnt graduate and live our lives as mediocre, but we should rise above mediocre. Especially with the economy like this, companies will want someone who is the best, not mediocre. Then i thought to myself...."wow that is true." What is the purpose of going to school if we arent going for the best? People would want to hire the best of the best. Not mediocre. That hit me. I realized that now isnt the time to be playing around anymore...Well, maybe I should have realized that when i first started university!!! haha...but I guess i was so closed minded. ^^

hey everybody...

I know I havent blogged in a while. I've been getting used to my schedule for school and though it is not as scattered as last semester, and though i only have 4 classes, most of my classes are full of mathematics! Unfortunately, I didnt get in to the other 2 classes that I want to take, but I guess everything has its own reason and purpose. Maybe its better off for me to take 4 classes instead of 6 because the courses I'm taking this semester is truly a super killer!!!

Anyway, enough of school. I'm actually in starbucks right now, drinking signiture hot chocolate as usual and trying to finish up some marketing assignments! I love taking online classes but there are the goods and bads of it. The good is that it's very convenient. You can listen and take quized whenever you want, upon your own avaliability. But the bad is that I tend to get lazy and procrastinate. But this semester, I'm aiming for all A's and B's. Hopefully, I can earn it :)

My friend just downloaded my webcam in my computer and I'm super excited to use it!
olllright guys, gotta head back studying x(

bless`d day,

Jessica
