Apples & Trees

phocks.org

Girls are like
apples on trees. The best
ones are at the top of the tree.
The boys don't want to reach for
the good ones because they are afraid
of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they
just get the rotten apples from the ground
that aren't as good, but easy. So the apples
at the top think something is wrong with
them, when in reality, they're amazing.
They just have to wait for the right
boy to come along, the one
who's brave enough
to climb
all the way
to the top
of the tree.

Thanks

I am just so happy that...
- whenever one door closes, another one opens;
- some people are just simply amazing and how I wish I knew them sooner...but better late than never!
- I get to love and be loved in return...

February 5, 2010.. Not too shabby after all.

Victoria's Secret

Look catalog and runway sexy with my easy tips to look like a Victoria’s Secret model any day of the week!

1. This look is really the VS model on her way to work. Not the complete underwear look! But this will have people thinking you’re a VS model.

BODY:
Try to get in a 30 minute aerobic workout everyday! Do something you enjoy to stick with it. Try belly dancing, yoga, kickboxing or my favorite…dancing! Stretch for at least 15 minutes before and after and drink plenty of water. While we all can’t be 6 feet tall and 120 lbs, we can look good at our own healthy weight and be healthy. Then we get to work what we got with confidence!

2. DIET:
Try to eat fresh fruits and vegetables, lean fish and chicken and healthy snacks. Keep a log of what you eat everyday.

3. BEAUTY:
First, you need big bouncy…hair! (We’ll get to the other bounce later) For a shortcut to that luscious mane, blow dry your hair upside down, then place Velcro rollers throughout and leave them on for 15 minutes. Take them out and you’ll have a big, full mane! For those with short hair (like me) add a ponytail extension or have a cute wig for the same look!

4. Now the other bounce…the “girls”. VS models flaunt their goods, but you can do the same and still be modest AND sexy. Invest in a good fitting bra. If you have never been fit for a bra, get a professional fitting. Try on different styles until you find the right one. I love the balconette cut neckline that Scarlet Johansson usually wears in her dress. Get a balconette bra for instant sexiness.

5. Make-up should be fresh and feminine. Try a pinky blush like Nars Orgasm ;) for a natural look, then use a red lip stain for a bitten look. That and some black mascara is really all you need.

6. FASHION:

Get matching underwear to avoid the “superhero” effect which is basically wearing panties that don’t match your bra. Anyone who has been guilty of this crime please raise your hands. (Mine’s up too)

7. Try some skinny jeans that fit well. For curvy girls, wear these with knee boots. For slim girls, wear heels.

8. Wear a black or white fitted tee. Why not wear a Victoria’s Secret one that says SEXY or Victoria’s Secret? It’ll look like you’re on your way to a photo shoot!

9. Get a cropped jacket. Either a leather jacket, ski coat or pea coat. Make sure it hits at the waist or a little higher.

10. Add a little sweet perfume like Coco Chanel Mademoiselle or Amarige Givency behind your ears and get ready to turn heads everywhere you go!


Miranda Kerr’s diet consists mostly of carbohydrates and lean protein-rich foods, such as egg whites, cottage cheese, oatmeal, vegetables, muesli, fruit and, of course, yogurt. For lunch she has something very light, like a salad with chicken or fish, while dinner mainly consists of fish, turkey or chicken and, of course, vegetables. Her workout is usually a combination of exercises targeting all muscle groups, but which places emphasis on her legs. Thus, Gelband says, Kerr does 30 minutes on her legs, 30 on her core, arms and balance, and 15 minutes on stretching afterwards. To keep her legs lean and toned (and, of course, cellulite-free), Miranda also does a 5-kilometer run and weight work, plus some boxing on the side.


HEIDI KLUM'S DIET Klum's day started with a protein shake (180 calories), followed at 10 a.m. by a 4-egg-white omelet with vegetables. Lunch might be broccoli sauteed in a teaspoon of olive oil, skinless chicken and salad. May be 10-12 raw almonds as a 4 p.m. snack. For dinner, Klum might have another protein shake, or a small meal like a cup of turkey chili. On the low-carb diet's list of no-no's: corn on the cob and pasta, which were replaced with lentils or kidney beans. At some things, however, Klum balked. "If I want a banana," she says firmly, "I eat a banana."


Beyonce's lemonade recipe:

-Organic Lemons
-Grade B Organic Maple Syrup (not the maple syrup on the breakfast table)
-Cayenne Pepper (preferably powdered instead of capsules)
-Unrefined Sea Salt
-Filtered Water

To prepare one serving of the Lemonade Diet Recipe drink, you would require

-2 tablespoons of lemon juice
-2 tablespoons of maple syrup
-1/10 tablespoons of cayenne pepper
-10 oz of filtered water

You should consume from 6 - 12 servings of lemonade drink a day for either 3 day or 10 day.

2009 in a nutshell.

2009 is coming to an end. I'm thinking about the good and the bad and what's bad is there's a bad following every good and a good lacking for every bad..

Serious imbalance.
  • Death. Michael Jackson, Patrick Swayze, Farrah Fawcet - btw, sad because her death got drowned out by MJ mourners..
  • Friends. Losing a handful but only to realize that it's good because I now know who's going to be there and who's not..
  • Car accidents.
  • Bank statement :(
  • Broken laptop
Now the good:)
  • LOOKBOOK.nu
  • Mark. Best boyfriend everrrr.
  • Boston & Baltimore trip!
  • Thanksgiving with relatives
  • Money
  • Youtube
  • Having awesome best friends. Megan, Sophia, Connie, Gabby, Arianne, Becka etc.
  • Coffee! esp Starbucks
  • Discounts / friendly sales who give employee discount.

心理測驗 [ 感情 女生 ] 妳是一個好命的女人嗎

如果命運是一條車道,我們來玩一個開車的遊戲,請「不假思索」的回答下列問題!

1.如果妳有一個家財萬貫的情人,決定送妳一輛車當生日禮物,妳會(已婚的也請回到未婚的時代吧)
A.拒絕。表示自己不是愛他的錢,或不想欠他人情
B.當下很愉快的接受他的好意,問他是什麼車
C.半推半就的接受他的好意,日後會想要做等值的回報

2.假如妳個人名下有一部車,在不考慮車價因素,妳希望它是
A.敞篷跑車
B.大型休旅車
C.雙B房車
D.一般平價的房車

3.如果妳一個人開車上路,忽然車拋錨了,妳第一個電話會打給:(請假設以下四個關係妳都擁有)
A.男友
B.家人
C.某個可能知道如何幫妳解決問題的友人
D.特約拖吊廠

4.萬一妳隨著一大群車陣紅燈右轉,別人都很順利,卻只有妳被交警攔了下來,妳會
A.跟警察辯論,為什麼妳不抓別人只抓我
B.跟警察道歉,乖乖受罰
C.企圖艾薩克嬌來免罰
D.沉默以對,覺得自己很倒楣

5.周休二日時,如果妳和男友第一次要開這部車出去玩,妳會希望怎麼玩
A.兩人一起到人跡罕至的山林間探險
B.兩人一起到知名風景區做一日游
C.直駛外縣市的五星級飯店度假
D.呼朋引伴,希望有親朋或好友同游,去哪兒都好















1.家財萬貫的情人,送妳一輛車當生日禮物,妳的選擇代表的意義是
A.拒絕。表示自己不是愛他的錢,或不想欠他:妳是個受了傳統家教的女孩,妳的尊嚴重於一切。然而,久而久之,妳很可能讓男人覺得妳並不需要他。妳很難從兩性中得到男人給妳的好處。
B.當下很愉快的接受他的好意:妳向來天真活潑也很討男人歡喜,習於接受男性的幫助,在兩性關係中從來不吃虧。萬萬不要以為自己會有為了愛情不要麵包的一天。
C.接受他的好意,但日後會想要在精神上有等值的回報:在妳的觀念裡,精神和物質的界線是很模糊的,只要男人一對妳好,或曾經對妳好,妳就會對他死心塌地。

2.妳選的車代表妳在人生中最重視的
A.敞篷跑車:妳最愛的是自由,自認為與眾不同,應該擁有不平凡的人生。
B.大型休旅車:妳喜歡所有實用的東西,平常對美食與外表的重視,遠遠超過精神上的成長。
C.雙B房車:妳最愛的東西是面子,永遠跟隨主流社會的價值觀。
D.一般平價的房車:覓得良人是妳人生中最重要的目的。妳認為,如果沒有圓滿的家庭,其他的成功對妳都沒有意義。

3.妳一個人開車上路,車拋錨了,妳第一個打電話的對象,表示妳的獨立性
A.男友:獨立性五十分。在妳的內心中,妳覺得男人該幫妳解決一切大問題,什麼事妳也都會先找自己的男人商量。妳想要一個能扛起妳的天空的男人,不過,即使妳的男人很有責任感,妳的依賴性也會讓他傷腦筋。非不得已,妳才想要靠自己。
B.家人:獨立性三十分。由於妳在幸福家庭中長大,與家人關係密切,妳心中一直有個沒長大的小孩。妳無法跟任何家人反對的對象交往太久。但因為妳較無主見,在婚姻中常會被家人的意見弄得失去自己,也會讓另一半覺得困擾。
C.某個可能知道如何幫妳解決問題的友人:獨立性七十分。妳擁有良好的人際關係,個性十分的「四海皆兄弟」,很容易在事業上獲得成功。但那也可能是因為家庭從來不能提供妳庇護,而男人也多半讓妳失望。
D.特約拖吊廠:獨立性九十分。妳是個明快果決很有處理困境能力的女人。請多期許自己一些,大材小用就太可惜了。

4.妳隨著一大群車陣紅燈右轉,別人都很順利,卻只有妳被交警攔了下來,從妳的作法可以看出妳會不會為自己爭取權利
A.跟警察辯論,為什麼妳不抓別人只抓我?:這是很不智的作法,因為雖然外界環境對妳不公平,但妳常常採取莽撞衝動的方式,使自己在不公平的環境中更陷於不利。
B.跟警察道歉,乖乖受罰:其實妳知道這樣做還有機會將損失降到最低,妳是個理智而正直的人,很懂得如何察言觀色、化險為夷。吃虧後妳雖然不太會反擊,但永不忘記前車之鑒。
C.企圖艾薩克嬌來免罰:妳總是沒忘了利用女性的特質來享受特權。外柔內剛,遇到不公平的環境,也會讓自己的損失降到最低。
D.沉默以對,覺得自己倒楣:當環境不公時,妳逆來順受的能力超強,遇到命運不公時常以自責取代行動力,但可要小心火山爆發哦!

5.周休二日時,妳和男友第一次開車出去玩,妳希望的玩法代表妳對婚姻的期望
A.兩人一起到人跡罕至的山林間探險:妳對婚姻有憧憬,但只想到要享受兩個人的生活,不想跟任何長輩同住,有沒有小孩無所謂,兩個人能夠互相需要。
B.兩人一起到知名風景區做一日游:妳渴望婚姻,但想得很簡單,只要能夠找到一個妳可以接受的男人就好,妳對婚姻品質的要求並不特別。
C.直駛某個五星級飯店度假:妳渴望過著舒服的生活,對生活的品質要求很高,如果結了婚後妳過的日子沒有未婚時舒服,妳會很失望。
D.呼朋引伴,希望有親朋或好友同游,去哪兒都好:妳最不喜歡孤單,可以接受大家庭的熱熱鬧鬧喳喳呼呼,較能適應傳統家庭的結構。妳一進入家庭就會變成「人生以服務為目的」。

To M

You're my special someone - and you have been for quite some time now too.
I love you, so much, for everything do and everything that you are.
Thank you for those hugs, those small breakfast dates from early 2009, countless Farmer's Market brunches, an exasperated exclamation because we ordered the same damn food again...
Thank you for cuddling me when I know you just want to roll over and pass out, for apologizing when it's clearly my fault - but you apologize anyway because you know I am upset, for kissing me in the middle of the night when you're pulling the covers...
Thank you for round two's, for always doing the most outrageous and ridiculous activities with me just to make me happy (ie, skipping across Mill's Lawn & coloring in Disney's princess coloring book), for adjusting so your lips touch mine when we fall asleep so it's like we're kissing.
Thank you for worrying about me when I don't get enough sleep or finish my homework on time.
Thank you for picking me flowers and learning how to do miscellaneous tasks just to make me happy.
Thank you for telling me: You can call me anytime you get lonely/bored/miss me.
Thank you for being there when I need you; from bringing me my flip flops to staying with me when you clearly had to be somewhere on the night we had our second kiss.
I miss you, so much.
Thank you for picking up my calls when you can't, and for staying on the phone with me when I have nightmares.
Thank you for saying the sweetest and most adorable words to me. You, are amazing.
And I love you just as much - if not more.
I know sometimes I don't show how much I appreciate it with my immature tantrums but really, you are the world to me.










I love you, Mark.
