Random Sightings: Be Healthy, Be-You-Tiful
To be physically healthy, one must know and understand what to eat and what NOT to eat, when's the right time to sleep, and how to be happy in an unhappy environment. I get it. It's either I am a perfect candidate of the hash tag #youarewhatyoueat or maybe, just maybe I'm already losing my healthy lifestyle balance.
On that particular note, let me share with you some inspirations to get back on track. Here are some random sightings I found to be very useful. If you're looking for a healthy motivation and inspiration to get going, these lovely people behind these awesome sites would be like "Mana from Heaven". You'll be glad you've checked them out.
If you want to look young and raw, not crazy, you should definitely check out these guys from Young And Raw, Sheleana Breakell & Caleb Jennings. They promote natural living through a high raw, plant based lifestyle. I look up to Sheleana as an inspiration and I hope one day I can be a 100% vegan like her like I've always wanted. I so adore both of them for helping other people transition to the raw vegan lifestyle with ease with the help of their 3 month program "How To Go Raw, Not Crazy". They provide free natural ingredient recipes that are easy DIY's like this:
I also love the Raspberry Energy Booster Smoothie recipe and might try it within the week.
In my previous post, I featured a product review of Kojie.san soap that proved to be an effective acne treatment and a lightening product as well. If you missed it, you can check it out here. But I must tell you, there is no other way to get better and clearer skin let alone safer with an all natural, all organic ingredients like this:
You think you've seen enough as to what the right kind of foods to take in from the above picture? Look again and head out to Lauren Conrad to see for yourself how she gracefully put all the right kind of foods to fight acne. My favorites would be the anti-oxidant foods because I so love berries. And from now on, I would definitely stay away from white foods including white bread, refined sugar and most specially french fries! And I'm going to this with my eyes closed. Aaarghh :(
And of course, for the love of sleep! Who doesn't love it?

And here's another graphic to help you realize that exercise is part of being fit and healthy. And you should do this everyday. Have you had exercise today already? If not yet because you don't have time and still stuck in the office, try to read the following three times a day and bam! you just had a neck exercise.

I'm Back To Cooking
Hello lovelies! I hope you all are doing great. I just came back from a vacation in Baguio and the very thing I thought of is to cook. Honestly, I was so starving during the two and a half hours trip so forgive me if I pig out on this lemon squeezed pork chops with tomato slices and chilis on the side.
This is actually so simple to cook. You can cook this in 15-25 minutes.
The ingredients are:
Pork Chops
Lemon or Calamansi 6 or more pieces
2 cups Soy Sauce
Black Pepper
3 spoons flour
1 cup of water
Tomato Slices
Chili
How To Prepare:
First , in a bowl mix soy sauce, squeezed lemons or calamansi.
Second , marinate the pork chops in the sauce and lather black pepper and flour or corn starch.
Third , Get the pan ready and put 1 cup of water. You can actually skip this if you think it's not necessary. But I do this because I want my meat to be more tender. When the water runs out, you can proceed with the next step.
Fourth, put a small amount of cooking oil just to cover the entire surface of the pan and fry the pork chops as you would normally.
Fifth, When it's done, and you want you meat to have a little bit of sauce get the rest of the sauce you marinated the pork chops with and cook for 2-3 minutes until you get a caramelized sauce.
Garnishing:
Slice 1 whole tomato to decorate your plate
Put a little spice on it by putting 2-3 chilis on the side.
Serve Hot!

Make Up Alert: "My Eyeliner Smears!"
I know, it could be embarrassing to experience such in the middle of a special occasion or in a formal gathering. What to do to avoid this? The solution is simple. Know that the skin around our eyes is super-slick, making it tough for liner to stay put. You could try using a waterproof version of eyeliners which will withstand oil, sweat, tears or water (at a pool party maybe). But before applying, you might want to dip a Q-tip in an oil-absorbing face powder and trace along your lash line to make liner stick.
