BB Cream: The Wonder Make-up

I may be one of the people who can't live without the ingenious thing called BB Cream. It stands for Blemish Balm Cream, an all in one cream used as face make-up. The craze started in Korea then to Japan and soon more Asian women go loco over this handy make-up. BB Cream gives you flawless finish much like of a Korean's natural skin complexion. It is better than a foundation. Most BB Creams contain SPF to protect the face from the sun's harmful rays. It can also be used as an alternative to concealer. Some BB Creams cure acne and other face impurities, cover blemishes and dark spots, some even treat oily skin problems. It looks natural on the skin giving you an almost no make-up look. You can even retouch without any hassle unlike powder or liquid foundations.

Now, so much about this amazing make-up. Here's a list of my favorite-est BB Creams!

One-armed Jeepney Driver

It was not the first time that I rode this blue multicab Route 5 jeepney that passes by our school. But it was the first time that I was seated beside the driver. I was the only passenger that time so I had the chance to be at the passenger's seat. I was handing over my fare while the driver was steering the wheel. He reached for my fare and gave me change using one arm, alternately steering the wheel. It might be hard to picture out but it was like this: I handed the fare, he was steering the wheel, he reached for my fare, he was steering the wheel, he gave me my change, he was steering the wheel. He does this with just one arm. I didn't mind it at first.

If you love him, fight for him

Being in love seems to be the nicest feeling in the world, they say. But it only is the nicest thing when you share the feeling with the right one. Being in love makes you do crazy things and think crazy thoughts. I have been in love with one and the same boy for 5 years and counting. I've met him in high school. He is no Mr. Popular. He is no Mr. Good Looks. He is no Mr. Moneybags. He's simply himself, the reason I fell deeply in love with him.

The 5 years we've been together wasn't easy all the time, it wasn't happy all the time. Like what normal couples do; we fight, we make up. But what makes us unique from all others is we surely finds way to be okay in the midst of arguments, we don't usually go to bed hot-headed. We're normal, we're not perfect but we definitely are one of a kind. Our love for each other makes up for all the imperfections we have.
