Just because I can't study for Taxation Law I
It's been 4 years. A lot of things happened in my life -life changing things. I don't want to dwell on that. I want to focus on what's happening now. I am now in 3rd year law school from a school where the lions are red. In those 4 years that I stopped blogging, I discovered how passionate I am when it comes to food. I have the best food trip buddy for that matter, J. We've been together for more than 2 years. I still have the best parents in the world. Surrounded by good friends.
Taxation Quiz tomorrow. And I still have not finished reading 1/3 of the assignment. Just because I so feel that I'm in finals mode already. So I just want to relax and start reviewing for the subjects which needed a lot of FOCUS.
Right now, I got to go. Cram time. *sigh*

So stupid to forget that you exist.
Yes. Definitely I am. I found out that I still have an account here just now. As I was cramming my way to review my notes and solve my problem sets in PA 142. Jeez. I have an early exam tomorrow and here i am, taking my time to revive this long lost blog.
i have an account in multiply which is pretty much more updated than this site. so sorry. i didn't mean to be unfair to blogger.com but yeah, blame it to my stupidity. anyway, im quite getting used to it since i have lots of forgotten e-mail passwords.
my being maldita is still very much in full blasts. my roomates before got a first hand experience on that. well it's a different feeling when you lost something right? and of all people, those whom you trust (the people you've shared room within 10 months) would do that nasty thing to you. no excuse for that definitely.
-----
now that i found you, guess i have no choice but to share with you, again, my life.
here's to the many blog days to come...
xoxo,
maldita
ps.
Really need to pass the 142 exam tomorrow. Please Pray for Me.

Something 'bout love...another message from a friendster friend...
I once had a friend who grew to be very close to me. Once when we were sitting at the edge of a swimming pool, she filled the palm of her hand with some water and held it before me, and said this: "You see this water carefully contained on my hand? It symbolizes Love.
" This was how I saw it: As long as you keep your hand caringly open and allow it to remain there, it will always be there. However, if you attempt to close your fingers round it and try to posses it, it will spill through the first cracks it finds.
This is the greatest mistake that people do when they meet love ... they try to posses it, they demand, they expect ... and just like the water spilling out of your hand, love will retrieve from you. For love is meant to be free, you can not change its nature.
If there are people you love, allow them to be free beings.
Give and don't expect. Advise, but don't order. Ask, but never demand.
It might sound simple, but it is a lesson that may take a lifetime to truly practice.
It is the secret to true love.To truly practice it, you must sincerely feel no expectations from those who you love, and yet an unconditional caring."
Passing thought ... Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take; but by the moments that take our breath away.
It might sound simple, but it is a lesson that may take a lifetime

Some really ugly stuff bout beauty prouducts... message from a friendster friend..
SUNSCREEN
Dubai's year-round sunshine means that slathering on sunscreen on a daily basis is a must. But research shows that products which claim to contain a high SPF factor may not be as safe as we think. Whilst many products on the market may reduce the risk of sunburn (UVB rays), they don't protect against UVA radiation, which is linked to ageing and skin cancer.
Glamour's Top Tip:
Stay sun-savvy with products that contain a high SPF, (no less than 30) and have both UVA and UVB protection. Apply often and liberally - you'll be glad you did in the long run.
TEETH WHITENING
Lusting after a Hollywood set of pearly whites? If you're considering an over-the-counter treatment, think twice. At-home teeth-whitening kits are often loaded with bleach, which can wear away tooth enamel and cause gum disease and teeth sensitivity.
Glamour's Top Tip:
Before you decide to DIY, consult your dentist to find out which method is best for you. Two of the most popular and effective treatments are custom-made fitted gel trays and laser treatments - and they're super-quick, so you can walk out with a winning smile in just a few hours.
HAIR DYE
If you're preparing to ditch your natural tresses for a dramatically different hair colour, wait! Most dyes are packed with harmful chemicals. The more permanent the colour, the more toxic the product. Semi-permanent and temporary dyes are much less toxic than permanent colours, and dark shades contain more chemicals than blonde and red tones.
Glamour's Top Tip:
Go organic. Hennas, natural-based herbal dyes, vegetable dyes and anything containing food-based ingredients are less harmful.
MASCARA
Out-of-date beauty products, especially eye make-up, can cause nasty infections. It's safe to use the same products for around three months, but after that, it's a no-no, as you put yourself at risk of contracting eye conditions like conjunctivitis. Mascara is the biggest enemy - when you put the brush on your eyelashes then back into the tube, bacteria can breed easily.
Glamour's Top Tip:
Minimise the risk of developing an infection by following a few simple steps. Never share your mascara or eyeliner with friends, and always make sure you close the tube after use.
ANTIPERSPIRANTS
Research has revealed that antiperspirants may pose deadly health risks for women, with prolonged use cited as a possible cause of breast cancer. They're loaded with aluminium salts which are absorbed into the skin, and long-term use could be potentially damaging.
Glamour's Top Tip:
Don't sweat it just yet. Chemical-free antiperspirants are just as effective as most other antiperspirants, and keep you smelling just as fresh.

Big Girls Don't Cry...am I a Big Girl Yet?
Fergie - Big Girls Don't Cry Lyrics
Da Da Da Da
The smell of your skin lingers on me now
Your probably on your flight back to your home town
I need some shelter of my own protection baby
To be with myself instead of calamity
Peace, Serenity
[CHORUS]
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, Myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But Ive got to get a move on with my life
Its time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Don't cry
Don't cry
Don't cry
The path that I'm walking
I must go alone
I must take the baby steps until I'm full grown
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay
[CHORUS]
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to with you
It's personal, Myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
Its time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Like the little school mate in the school yard
We'll play jacks and uno cards
Ill be your best friend and you'll be mine
Valentine
Yes you can hold my hand if u want to
Cause I want to hold yours too
Well be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds
But its time for me to go home
Its getting late, dark outside
I need to be with myself instead of calamity
Peace, Serenity
[CHORUS]
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, Myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
Its time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Don't cry
Don't cry
Don't cry
La Da Da Da Da Da
