A Letter In The Lost Wallet

Image
As I walked home one freezing day, I stumbled on a wallet someone had lost in the street. I picked it up and looked inside to find some identification so I could call the owner. But the wallet contained only three dollars and a crumpled letter that looked as if it had been in there for years. The envelope was worn and the only thing that was legible on it was the return address. I started to open the letter, hoping to find some clue. Then I saw the dateline--1924. The letter had been written almost sixty years ago. It was written in a beautiful feminine handwriting on powder blue stationery with a little flower in the left-hand corner. It was a "Dear John" letter that told the recipient, whose name appeared to be Michael, that the writer could not see him any more because her mother forbade it. Even so, she wrote that she would always love him. It was signed, Hannah. It was a beautiful letter, but there was no way except for the name Michael, that the owner could be ident

Camomile Gentle Eye Make Up Remover - Body Shop

Image
Hello :) Today's post will be all about beauty. I will share to you about a product I bought yesterday at Body Shop, Megalong Penampang. FYI, this is my first purchase from Body Shop! *clap hands* Setelah sekian lama mengimpikan kehendak membeli barangan Body Shop dengan menggunakan duit sendiri ok :P At first, I only planned to buy their eye-shadow but then the beautiful salesperson offered me their Camomile Gentle Eye Make-Up Remover with a discount. 30% discount!   Well, I was going to buy a make-up remover anyway. Why not buy from them with the similar price of a normal brand which I usually buy from Guardian kan. Will blog about the eye-shadow in my next post. (Hopefully)   250 ml RM39.90 after 30% discount is RM27.93 : ) Float away the day with refreshing rosewater to gently cleanse and dissolve eye make-up. Also conditions lashes so they feel soft and silky.    Made wih PASS!ON - Body Shop Upper line: Pencil Eyeliner - Eli

Midnight Sun

Image
Hiya there! How was your Sunday so far? I took a nap just now and when I woke up, my mind suddenly tells me to Google for Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2 countdown timer! So, there you go, a countdown timer for the no. 1 novel turned movie ever. (You can see it at the top left column of my blog). I was reading those comments at the website where I found this widget when I saw one comment about Midnight Sun. I heard about it before and knew that Midnight Sun is Twilight from Edward's point of view but did not pay any attention to it. Midnight Sun is actually a Twilight story too but from Edward's perspective. "As some of you may have heard, my partial draft of Midnight Sun was illegally posted on the Internet and has since been virally distributed without my knowledge or permission or the knowledge or permission of my publisher." - Stephenie Meyer However, she agreed to just let it be and now you can read Chapter 1 here and also her partial draft here .

Erra Fazira enggan komen kenyataan suami

Image
Erra Fazira KUALA LUMPUR: “Saya enggan memberi sebarang komen mengenai rumah tangga kerana ia terlalu peribadi. Setiap bait jawapan saya kelak, bimbang disalah erti dan memberi kesan buruk. Harap semua pihak faham,” kata aktres dan penyanyi popular, Fazira Wan Chek, 38, atau Erra Fazira. Erra meluahkan rasa hatinya melalui khidmat pesanan ringkas (SMS) kepada wartawan Berita Minggu yang cuba mendapatkan reaksi bintang popular itu susulan pengakuan suaminya, Engku Emran Engku Zainal Abidin yang menafikan berkahwin lain, tersiar dalam akhbar tempatan, semalam. Dalam SMS itu, Erra mempertahankan pendirian untuk tidak mengulas lanjut isu rumah tangganya serta berharap semua pihak memahami situasi dihadapinya. Berita Harian semalam melaporkan, Emran menafikan berkahwin lagi seperti yang dihebohkan. Emran menjelaskan, selama ini, beliau enggan bersuara kerana tidak mahu membesarkan isu yang tidak benar. Bagaimanapun, katanya, beliau terpaksa membuat ulasan selepas melihat isu rumah tang

A Letter from a Shelter Manager

Image
A Letter from a Shelter Manager - anonymous in North Carolina I think our society needs a huge "Wake-up" call. As a shelter manager, I am going to share a little insight with you all...a view from the inside if you will. First off, all of you breeders/sellers should be made to work in the "back" of an animal shelter for just one day. Maybe if you saw the life drain from a few sad, lost, confused eyes, you would change your mind about breeding and selling to people you don't even know. That puppy you just sold will most likely end up in my shelter when it's not a cute little puppy anymore. So how would you feel if you knew that there's about a 90% chance that dog will never walk out of the shelter it is going to be dumped at? Purebred or not! About 50% of all of the dogs that are "owner surrenders" or "strays", that come into my shelter are purebred dogs. The most common excuses I hear are; 1. "We are mo

Olivia Culpo: Miss USA 2012

Image
Olivia Culpo of Rhode Island has been crowned Miss USA 2012 beating out a number of beautiful and talented Latinas along the way, including Miss Mississippi Myverick Garcia, Miss Colorado Marybel Gonzalez, Miss New York USA Johanna Sambucini. Culpo is a cellist who describes herself as a nerd and aspires to be more like Hollywood icon Audrey Hepburn. Culpo said after winning her crown Sunday night that she plans to go to Tiffany & Co. in New York and recreate Hepburn's iconic opening scene from "Breakfast at Tiffany's." Culpo, a Boston University sophomore, will take a year off from her studies to tackle her duties as Miss USA and represent the nation in the 61st Miss Universe contest in December. The 20-year-old said she wished she could have shared her crown with her 50 competitors during the pageant at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino on the Las Vegas Strip. Culpo strutted across the stage in a lilac bikini, then donned a flowing fuchsia gown with
