Where We Belong - Emily Giffin review

-
5/5 - my rating. 
I just finished reading “Where We Belong” written by Emily Giffin, and even though I’m aware that she’s a famous writer it’s actually my first time reading one of her works. And. It. Was. Brilliant. I have read some reviews on the internet and wondered what their thoughts about the book were and found some who was disappointed saying that it was one of her worst works, but I totally disagree especially now that I was able to finish the book right off bat. It was a page turner like, literally. You just can’t wait for tomorrow to know the next flow of events.

I personally recommend it. It’s all about the importance of finding the right decisions in life and how the people around us influence our choices.  It’s about how life changes as we grow older and our priorities differ from what they were before. As we grow, we realize how narrow-minded we once were and wondered whether we made the right choices we decided to follow.

Once upon a time, in your life you'll start to wonder how things would turn out if you decided to stand up for what was once present. 

 Everything happens, during that one summer when they were 18 (Marian and Conrad) 

Marian Caldwell. Big time producer. In a relationship with the company's CEO. Rich. Wants to settle down and be married and have a child. Just.Perfect.
Kirby Katherine Rose. 18. Senior. Plain. Adopted. Musician.
Conrad Knight. Musician.  Once married but his partner turned out to be a bi and of course, she doesn't want to have a child but he does. Marian was the love of his life. Owns Zelda's - Live music 365 days a year, which is a bar. 

These 3, were all living their own lives. All related by blood, one is not fully aware of  the activities of the other. An unexpected meeting that will change a lot, a meeting that will fill the gap that was missing all those 18 years of lies. 
A story of beginnings. A story of knowing where we truly belong.


I found this book during this year’s National book store’s big sale. All I can say is that… It was a good choice I picked it up on the floor.

Code of Ethics of the Medical Technologist (New Version)

-
Only a few people post this on the internet and well, I decided to share this instead of waiting for some other people to do so. I am a victim of “Memorize the code of ethics (med tech) and we’ll have a quiz next meeting” and I am not aware that there’s a new and an old version. I searched on the internet and got my hands a copy of the code of ethics and, unfortunately, it’s an old version and I never knew it until the day of the exam. So future RMT’s who still haven’t got their hands on the new version, here it goes: Board of Medical Technology Code of Ethics (New Version) As I enter into the practice of Medical Technology, I shall accept the responsibilities inherent to being a professional; I shall uphold the law and shall not engage in illegal work nor cooperate with anyone so engaged; I shall avoid associating or being identified with any enterprise of questionable character; I shall work and act in a strict spirit of fairness to employer, clients, contractors, employees

Shantahl Rejuvenating Set // It's a MIRACLE SET for me

This is my first time writing a "beauty blog", because I never really had the confidence to share how my skin look like without makeup. Somehow, I have been learning to build my confidence because I started having clearer skin (just recently). My mother spent, thousands of money just to repair my skin, especially when I was a teenager. We've been to dermatologists from popular hospitals you can remember and even went to clinics specializing skin care, but after all those thousands of money spent, my skin never improved. I gave up trying. Now, that we are on a lock down, I took the initiative to try out something new and thought "Why not let my face peel off a bit?". That's when I got my hands on Shantahl Rejuvenating set. I was hesitant at first but, it really worked like a miracle for me. Shantahl Rejuvenating Set has: 1 - Night Cream 1 - Sunblock with SPF 30 1 - Rejuvenating Toner 1 - Kojic Soap I got my set for only  485.00 at 1'PRIMO

 Hi! If you have read my review of Shantahl Rejuvenating Set  you probably saw how B-A-D my skin used to be and how I had no confidence to show my skin without make up. The good thing is now, I have gained confidence ever since showing that skin of mine hoping to help others find good ways to have much better skin. I have also linked where I bought my Rejuvenating Set which is here: Shantahl Rejuvenating Set Original  they give special discounts specially when you are a repeat buyer. Anyway let's start reviewing Lionesse Gem Skin Care White Pearl Facial Peeling What is in the box? 1 - Lionesse Gem Skin Care White Pearl Facial Peeling - 60 ml And here is how it looks like -> Sleek and nice right? Worth its price. However, in my own opinion one thing lacking on this container is a small spatula for hygienic purposes. Especially for users who dislike dipping their fingers on it. And there goes the small orange pearls.  They aren't really white but maybe it was called so becaus
