My First Blog

27/11/2003

1. Gripe
So the first thing I do when I get my blog is find out i should set my own templates. Great. All I wanted to do was write something. Now I’ve to go through that CSS book I left lying around for a year to do a decent job of making this look vaguely like how I want it to.

2. Aromatherapy at work today
I started the day with 4-5 drops of lemon and 2 drops of lavender. The lemon was a pretty nice wake-r up-er. But it really doesn’t get you very far. The scent doesn’t last as long as I’d like, and an hour later, I feel like I need to give it another 4 drops.

In the afternoon, someone requested an all over office scent, apparently there was some bad air going around. Maybe someone in the marketing team didn’t take a bath this morning. So I whipped out some Geranium (4 drops) and 2 drops of Lavender (which was superfluous). The result was pretty much a really strong rosey smell. Ok in small doses. Wonder if we all felt less depressed. I felt great. But then again, it was a good day.

3. Extra-superfluous
There was a news report on TV today (both Channel i and Mediacorp covered it, I think) about that couple who took that reverse bungee after their wedding ceremony. The guy said something really funny when interviewed, something like “… at first, there was that phobia-fear, but then …”.

4. My favourite skincare item
Today it’s still Clinique Clarifying Lotion #2 (in the purple bottle). I love the way the menthol leaves a tingle on my face. Also, in general I think the toning is really working well. My face feels nice and scrubbed after toning. Worth every cent. All 2,900 of them.
