Ikea, I miss you

I have always blogged about hubby and I going window shopping in IKEA. Well, those supposedly just window shopping trips sometimes lead to actual shopping if we find something that we would need in the house, or something that we just fancy.

I just love how end tables give the corner of our house a chic look—so tables and living room sets are one of the things that I enjoy looking at when we have an IKEA trip. But since I have come across http://www.endtables.com/, I have enjoyed their gorgeous designs so much that I can’t help but wish I could make a purchase sometime!


Creative Teaching

Teaching High School students really require lots of creativity. I mean, teaching should always be creative regardless of what level you’re teaching, but most likely, teens have a very short attention span that’s why it pays to prepare a fun activity for them to stay focused, awake and interested. I was wondering where to buy playbook when I started teaching.

I just knew it was going to be a need. I was so happy when I finally got one-- it’s really worth the investment. It has helped me a lot with my teaching preparation, plus it has apps that would be helpful in my teaching. Almost all of my students had one, too. Isn’t it amazing how we could make use of all these modern gadgets to make teaching a lot more fun?


Bakkwa

The hubs just bought me 200 grams of bakkwa. And he thought I'd eat it little by little. But no, this bakkwa lover wife couldn't do just that. And so what did she... errr.. I do??? Ate all of them in one sitting.

Bakkwa is a type of dried pork meat. It is very rich in cholesterol. You bet that my uric acid shot up after I finished all of them. I felt dizzy and my right shoulder blade ached.

I tried to flush it down my system quickly. Had to drink green tea. Also, I remember the health benefits of barley water. So I boiled barley water. I'm going to have a second mug of it.

I hope I'll be fine soon.

Style Me Fabulous, American Next Top Model and other reality shows about makeovers, fashion and style have a common backbone; without this group of professionals, these reality shows or fashion shows would not be as exciting. This group of professionals I’m talking about is the stylists - people who transform the contestants, models, or participants into a work of art.

Makeovers transform lives; they boost up self-confidence and self-esteem. To board this ship of amazing stylists/artists; much effort, knowledge, skill, passion, and experience is required. There's this place that can provide the essentials one needs, to be a professional stylist –Regency Cosmetology Schools, the place where you get high-quality education on style.

What to do When Your iPad2 Touch Screen Gets Stuck or Frozen

I got a horror of my life yesterday when, after I downloaded a new app game for my iPad2, the touch screen just froze. I couldn't swipe it at all. Since I was still at work, I couldn't do anything to find out how to fix it.

Last night, when I had the time, I started googling on how to fix a frozen iPad2 touchscreen. The first thing I saw was: you couldn't doanything about it coz it has some faulty or maybe a loose connection internally. Send it back to the Apple Store.

That scared me. I didn't wanna go thru the hassle of going back to the store. I searched for another tip on how to fix your iPad2 when the touch screen gets frozen.

Then I read that you need to press the power button and the menu button at the same time until you see the apple logo, the apple... then release and wait until it restarts.

And that's it. I straight away deleted the newly installed app I just downloaded, just to make sure the touch screen doesn't get frozen again.

Hope this tip helps those who get their iPad2 touch screen frozen.
