I have been feeling so down lately and I don't fell like talking to anybody.They said that people go to depression in different ways. One may sleep too much, while another sleeps too little. Some people don't eat enough and lose weight, while others overeat and gain weight.
I am one of the two mention above. I sleep late and wake up too early, I am very irritable, and I think I have been eating a lot that I have gained weight:((. I go through this situation once in awhile, I know that is it not healthy. I tried doing things to occupy myself. I think I am just homesick, I don't know! Felt like I want to run a long run or go on the top of the mountain and cry out loud. My gosh! I think I am losing my mind.
I think I am Depress

Thursday, November 12, 2009
This is my first time to join Pink Meme. So, I am joining "I love pink-Pintastic" at Charlotte Victoria. I like pink color but I wasn't really crazy about it. But when my daughter was 7 she really loves pink. She would love to have pink color in any stuff, from clothing to toys. She was crazy about pink. When she turn 8 two years ago, she started liking light blue and purple.
There is certain pink I like, light pink and medium dark pink and that goes toward by LG cell phone. I have a medium pink color on my cell phone.
I must say pink is stunning color and goes with any color basically. I thank Charlotte Victoria for inviting me for this wonderful Pink Meme. Every one are welcome to join this meme.

Support Our Military Personnel
Wednesday, November 11, 2009
There are many options on how to support our military personnel whether they are overseas at home. The following tips are ideas on how to support our military.
Living in a democracy means the most important thing you can do is to oppose any unnecessary deployments no matter who orders them.Participate in support organizations that send letters military stationed overseas. Purchase telephone cards and donate them to organizations who mail them to overseas military personnel. Participate in organizations that make and send homemade gifts such as scarves, mittens and the like. Yahoo Groups has several groups that support our veterans by making homemade items for our vets.
Say thank you if you happen to meet someone who is serving our country. Offer to support the local military relief society. Relief societies are usually found at most military installations. Invite a soldier, sailor, airman marine, or coastguardsman home for a holiday dinner. Contact the local military installation's family services unit to see if they maintain a list of military personnel interested in joining you for dinner.Honor military families by contributing to the Toys For Tots program. Most military families live on limited budgets and remembering military kids during the holidays will brighten their spirits. Military and non-military families can participate in the Toys for Tots program. It is not a program for only military families.

Cope with Minor Illnesses
Monday, November 9, 2009
It is that time of the year again. Cold Season. When you come down with the sniffles, the flu, or a cold,make sure you take care of it, before it turns into something worse.
1. Don't do too much. If you know you're sick or feel yourself getting a scratchy throat, don't overwork yourself. Get to bed early that night and wear thick socks to bed.
2. Wear warm clothes. If you still feel sick in the morning, put on a sweater or robe when you get out of bed and put socks on if you slept with your socks off. If you have a fever you don't have to bundle up as much, but you should still wear as much as you feel comfortable with
3. Brush your teeth, gums, and tongue really well to kill any germs in your saliva. Rinse with mouthwash.
4. Use hot water. If you have a cold, wash your face with hot water; for a fever, wash with cold but not too cold.
5. Take a hot bath if you have a cold, and a room-temperature bath if you have a fever.
6. Have a substantial breakfast with the freshest ingredients you have; this means real food like fruit and toast or cereal if you're in a pinch. Whatever you, do don't skip breakfast, unless you feel like you're going to throw up. If you're going to throw up, have a little bit of some bread or similar dough products.
7. Have a hot drink with your breakfast, and make a thermos of some hot liquid to take to work or school.
8. Stock your purse or backpack with the following on-the-go supplies:
Halls or other sore throat/cold lozenges;
Tissues;
A thermos full of hot liquid.
9. Wear the most comfortable clothes you can - at school, you'll probably be allowed to wear a sweater and track pants, but if you have to work in a professional setting then at least wear comfortable shoes.
10. Don't exert yourself too much. Walk slowly and sit down as much as possible.
11. Take short breaks every hour or so. If you work at a desk, put your head in your arms on the desk and close your eyes for a few minutes to refresh yourself.
If you need to sneeze but you don't have a tissue, sneeze into your armpit instead of your hands to reduce the spread of germs. Tea and broth-based soups are the best liquids to drink when you're sick. Coffee can make you jittery and nauseous. Ginger Ale commonly works, too.In the end, the only thing that can kill the cold virus is your body's immune system. Your goal for the next few days should be to make yourself as comfortable and rested as possible so your body can do it's work.
Don't share any food, drinks, or any object that goes in your mouth with other people.Throw dirty tissues into the toilet, or into a paper bag just for this purpose. If you have a very high fever, take a fever-reducer like Tylenol and then towel yourself off with cool water, especially behind the neck and under arms. This will lower the fever. If the fever does not get lower than 103, then call the doctor Check dosages for all medicine you take, go to drsears.com for child dosages. If you're feeling really bad, just stay home. If you force yourself to go to work you'll make yourself more sick and will end up staying home for even longer. If the illness lasts for more than 2 weeks or is accompanied by ear pain, hoarseness, difficulty breathing, rash or muscle aches, see your doctor. It could be a more complicated disease requiring antibiotics.

Aromatherapy Skin Cleansing Creams
Friday, November 6, 2009
Aromatherapy can help you to take care of your skin by mixing aromatherapy oils into your own cleansing creams and lotions. You will soon realize how much you can improve your overall appearance and well being without too much fuss and expense. Also, you will benefit from the soothing aromas of the oils.
1. Use your favorite un perfumed cleansing cream or milk.
2. Add any of the following aromatherapy oils, either singly or in combination for each skin type. The ratio is two drops of oil to every 4 fl oz (100 ml) of cleanser:
Normal skin: Rose, neroli, lavender, sandalwood
Dry skin: Chamomile, geranium, rose and ylang-ylang
Combination skin: Lavender, geranium
Chapped, cracked skin: Benzoin and chamomile
Hyper-sensitive skin: Chamomile, neroli, jasmine, rose
Broken capillaries: Neroli, rose, lemon and peppermint
3. Clean your skin morning and night. An effective cleansing routine will balance your skin, helping it to function properly. All skin types need to be cleansed twice a day. Beauty therapists found that a lot of clients who would not dream of going to bed without cleansing their skin don’t bother to do so in the morning. However, cleansing in the morning is really important. Your skin throws out toxic waste products while you sleep and if you apply moisturizer straight on to your skin, you are actually preventing this shedding process from being effective.
Follow these routines as suits your skin:
Normal skin cleansing:Morning: Use either a cleansing milk or a balanced cleansing bar.Evening: Remove make-up with cleansing milk then repeat with milk or a cleansing bar.Oily skin cleansing: Morning: Either use cleansing milk or a balanced cleansing bar, if you prefer to wash your face. Evening: First use a cleansing milk to remove all traces of make-up. Then wash your face with a balanced cleansing bar. Dry skin cleansing: Morning: Use a cleansing cream. Massage it into your face with your fingers thoroughly then remove.Evening: Use cleansing milk to remove make-up. Cleanse again using cleansing cream. Combination skin cleansing: Morning: As for oily skin, pay particular attention to nose, chin and forehead areas. Evening: As for oily skin, be gentle on your cheeks and if they are dry repeat the cleansing process with a milk cleanser rather than by washing your face. Hyper-sensitive skin cleansing: Morning: Use cleansing milk or cream specially made for very sensitive skin. Avoid skin washes. Evening: Remove make-up with a cleansing milk. Repeat the cleansing using a cream. Be gentle when removing cleanser.
Try some plain, old extra virgin olive oil to help condition your skin. A little bit goes a long ways on wet skin right out of the shower. Smear it all over and rubbing in, then you dry off the remaining water drops and get dressed. Just use a lot less.
Things You'll Need
Essential oils as described above
Unperfumed cream or cleansing milk
Clean container
Cotton wool
