A lot have tried out the quickest way to lose all those stubborn fats such as the famous lap band surgery. One of the most renowned lapband areas is lapband houston. Dr. Richard Collier is the Lap-Band Surgery Specialist who provides this type of weight loss surgery program in Houston. This type of surgery claims to be less invasive as compared with gastric bypass surgery. As for me, I'd still rather resort to the natural ways of losing fats no matter how hard and long it will take me, I am not the courageous enough to resort to surgeries. What about you?

need some IT support?
I have discovered a Computer Network Support and IT Consulting in Irvine, it's called
Array Systems. They provide network support and IT consulting for small businesses in Irvine, California and Orange County. I think this is becoming a trend these days, especially if the company is too small to make a separate department that would solely concentrate on their management information systems. Visit arraysystems.com for more details.
my son is an addict.
You will not believe who won the ANTM cycle 10 hihihii. I was shrieking the entire time! But, that post will have to wait on friday when someone kind uploads the 13th episode in YouTube.
This is my weekend snapshots entry for this week. I wanted to share it here too. My son is an addict, he is obssessed with Transformers! He would watch transformers the movie (yes not the animation) 3x a day. So, here are photos of my 3-yr-old son's transformers toy collection.

lange & sohne
I have mentioned before that hubby and I love to collect watches. If he is the type who is craving for more known watch brands, I, on the other hand is the type who likes fashionable watches irregardless of brands as I wear them to accessorize my outfit. However, hubby has constantly said that watches are as good investments as jewelries. So, I am thinking of investing on more luxury watches as soon as we get settled down here. One of the fine watches in the world which hubby wants to have are lange & sohne watches. The came from a fine watchmaking industry in Germany. I always think that Switzerland manufactures fine watches but with lange & sohne discovery, Germany produces them too. If you visit their website, you'll see that hey have a variety of collections from the classic styles to those incrested with diamonds. They even have a blog page in their website which provides wealth of news on watches, reviews from timepiece and jewelry experts and a lot more. You can search any time of finepiece jewelry or watch by their brand name. It is also easy to navigate. I was drooling the entire time, I can just imagine if hubby was browsing with me. Oh well, not this time when we still need a lot of things to buy for the apartment.
ALMOST DONE.
IT'S ALMOST DONE. I just need to upload photoshoots pictures and other make-up related pics in my flicker account and http://vanitykit.com/ is all set. You can now visit the site as it is already up and running. Read how I landed to be a pro make-up artist and what's the story behind the birth. of this Beauty Blog. See you there!
ANTM REMINDER: the final battle TOMORROW
Reminding all ANTM fans, tomorrow's the big day.
To get everyone ready for tomorrow's cycle finale, here's a YouTube video summarizing all the photos of the top 3: Anya, Fatima and Whitney! I am so excited about this final show that I have told hubby NTHless time to remind me about it tomorrow.
View this site for the show's details: http://cwtv.com/shows/americas-next-top-model.
Don't forget tomorrow night 8/7 C.
flabs everywhere
Unfortunately, despite my lack of sleep and guarded diet. I still haven't lost a single pound! I guess, want I really need now is everyday workout, but I have no time for even a 30-minute worth of exercise. Things are really busy. I just received a call from our apartment agent, and we got the approval already and the unit is available on the week of June 12. So, you could just imagine that I'd be extra busy with our move. I am close to getting weight loss pills but I am just scared of the long-term effects of this type of pills. Have anyone of you tried taking these pills?
skin bumps
I hate how winter gravely affected my skin. When I was in the west coast particularly LA, I had the best sun-kissed skin and hair ever, but as soon as I got here in the east coast, I was forever battling skin dryness. I swear I almost bought every moisturizer and lotion brand just to keep my skin hydrated but still, I grew small dry bumps in my lower right cheek. They look so awfully bad. But, thanks to my genes as I do not really have acne-prone skin therefore no acne treatment will be needed not even in the near future.
AM I?
Thanks for this award, ABIE, my blogging bestfriend!

food labels
Do you actually read the Food Label whenever you buy something in the grocery? Well, I do and sometimes I buy items because I find the labels really attractive. I found this site: labelworldusa.com which produces a variety of labels for almost any products. They customize any food labels or product labels. If I had known of this site, I might avail the services of Label World for our wine giveaways for our male entourage during our wedding.
YOU by crocs
Aha! Another Crocs discovery hee! Did you know that originally, CROCS was intended as a boating and outdoor shoe because of its slip-resistant non-marking sole? Well, I guess the inventor of this footwear is a genius because the brand became a popular footwear for all classes and all age range in 3 years!
In June 2007, they made some fashionable brand called YOU by crocs for those who hate the boat-shaped original crocs line. Here are some of my favorite You by crocs shoes which claimed to depict fashion and comfort. Mind you, the prices are more than triple of the original Crocs line.

on Bagsbuy.com & Piperlime
How was your Mother's day celebration? Mine was gloomy and lazy. The weather's been very bad! All that Hubby, the little boy and I did was laze around in the bedroom save for the family dinner we had to recap our Mother's Day celebration. There is a total of 5 mothers in my hubby's family here and all of them are in the 50's up. I was the only young mom, so just imagine the mommies talk LOL! We received some little goodies from the young ones and the dinner did stuff me really bad, hay naku sira ang diet!
While waiting for everyone to start dinner, I did some window online shopping, my favorite pastime these days. I am almost going to get myself a Crocs Malindi in Turquoise but there weren't any size 6! Hahahah! It was truly a blessing in disguise because if there was a size 6 and I pressed the purchase button, oh no! It will end up to be an impulsive online purchase again! Tsk tsk very bad me!
I visited Bagsbuy.com for the 1st time, Shoebuy's sister company. And I am drooling and contemplating on getting this The Sak ashbury linen shopper bag in white trim. Truly a beauty! Another sizzling Spring temptation! 
I am also becoming a wise online shopper by comparing prices and I was surprised to find some nice finds and cheaper prices at Piperlime.com. The hottest items in this website are the Gladiator Sandals and here are my picks! 
So before you make any purchase, make sure to compare prices. If you thought Shoebuy.com will give you the cheapest prices, check the items with Endless.com and Piperlime too. Happy shopping!

ANTM cycle 10 episode 12-Finally SHE's GONE! and my other discoveries...
Here's my very delayed ANTM entry for this week.
In summary:
FINALLY, Dominique was booted out yahoo! Can't wait for her to leave and I have to agree with Ms. J that she's half man hahahah! I was laughing the entire time when he said that Cover Girl covers the man in a woman LOL! Dominique really looks like a man. I am so proud of Whitney for doing really good in this week's photoshoot, finally a plus-sized model in the final battle. She really has the prettiest face.
After hating Dominique so much during the entire cycle, I discovered these series of interview of girls booted out in YouTube. And yes, I was delighted with her interview, she was after all an all-natural kind of girl and could inject humor in her witty remarks. She also got her extensions back which made her look less-manly. So, make-overs in ANTM are not really the best afterall.
I am also posting Katarzyna's interview. She is still the boring person we know and what's up with her hair and her choice of clothes color (earth colors ALL THE TIME, which elaborates her dull personality) and I guess she lost a lotta weight.

ANTM's (my) NIGEL (WAS in Manila!!!).
I survived my Midterms, oh yes I did! So, after the gruelling and nerve-wracking week, I am just glad that the week's about to end. TGIF indeed! While I was having a very neat breakfast with stripe and mini-stripe this morning, I was sooooo overly surprised to hear Nigel Barker mentioning her experience with an avid fan in Manila in TODAY's Tyra Show! Holy Cow! How could I've missed this scoop tsk tsk. Sayang wala nako sa Manila, I could have probably lined up at the Ayala mall and took a photo with him LOL! The fan apparently showed Nigel a tattoed picture of him on the fan's left or right arm?!??! The fan is a HE by the way, a photographer I think. Anyways, here's Sam Oh's interview of Nigel Barker during his visit in Manila. Sam is so conscious and uneasy, I would have been too, with Nigel talking to me and staring me at the eye sigh.
And yes, next week is the final battle of ANTM's Cycle 10 yahoo! I'm going to blog about this week's episode and some more inside scoop tomorrow, I am just too sleepy right now.
Do you think ANTM is ready for a plus-size model? Will Whitney win? Abangan...

wine console
For some odd reasons and because of my hubby's influence on me, I have become a lover of wines too. We both cannot sleep without sipping some red or white wine. Sometimes, we get a little adventurous and try other types of wine. I would love to bring him to Napa Valley and experience the Napa wine tasting which I enjoyed sooo much when my brother, his wife and I swung by in Napa during our San Francisco vacay. So, it wouldn't hurt for hubby to buy a wine refrigerator or some wine cabinet console for our future home. I better show him these, I know he'd love them.
