Our trip to Ireland in the Fall of last year introduced me to a whole new world of traditional and modern Celtic jewelry. It was not only an introduction, it also got me reacquainted with my renewed passion for collecting jewelry. I must admit that for the past few years, I had no desire to add any piece to my existing collection. Since September last year, however, I had accumulated an impressive quantity, as if I had to catch up and make up for all those years when I allowed my jewelry box wanting for additional new pieces.
I’m back and I think this time I will not astray. I’m actually taking jewelry connoisseurship seriously and my interest for gems and metals at this point is more than enough for me to consider going to school for it.
It’s amazing what traveling can do to an individual. It was in Dublin while my husband and I was inside a landmark jewelry store looking at Celtic jewelries that woke up my interest. The wide range of traditional and modern Irish jewelry designs on display made us linger in the store longer. Needless to say, I walked away with a bracelet which not only represent a fabulous vacation but also a reminder of my renewed passion for jewelry collection.
While I’m a self-confessed shop-a-holic of anything and everything nice and fabulous, it is my renewed passion for jewelry collecting that I’m not putting any restrain on, for as long as we can afford it. Why? Because my husband and I believe that these pieces are part of our investment. We are both in unison with the thought that – we have to spend money to make money.

I have short and skimpy lashes. However, with the aid of my trusty eyelash curlers and the one and only mascara that can make my lashes look like I naturally have 2 inches of lashes (okay, that is an exaggerated statement), mine looks awesome when the two aids are in place.
Perhaps I should look into eyelash growth products reviews. Who knows, my lashes are not hopeless after all. For as long as I can remember, they have always been short and skimpy. But with the promise of longer lashes and to finally be ‘divorced’ from my eyelash curlers and mascara, it may be worthwhile to look into it.
Has any of you tried one of those magic potions? I’d like to know.
Trying it for myself may be the best way to go. If I rely on other people’s experience and not try it out for myself, I will never know for sure. I’m not ashamed to admit that I can be very vain, and I try anything that comes with a good promise. I believe that when there is no pain there is no gain. Isn’t it like that anyway in this life?

If you are a resident of San Antonio, Texas, and you are currently searching for the best Dentist in San Antonio, your search may be over.
I recently stumbled upon the online page of Dr. Moore and was quite impressed with his achievements in the field of Dentistry. You have to see it for yourself and tell me what you think. I’m quite sure that you will agree with me.
I have to admit that I, myself has been in the previous months searching for a new dentist in my area. I toyed with the idea of switching to a new provider because of some issues with my current dentist, but because the issues were already rectified, I decided to stay put for now.
It is not that easy to start from scratch. But when you are not satisfied with the current, moving on is the only way to go. It is during your search for a new provider that any valuable online info comes in handy. Largely, the credentials of a doctor, although it is not the only criteria in the selection process, it plays a big role in ones decision.
Lucky are the locals of San Antonio. Having an experienced, multi-awarded and highly acclaimed dental provider in town makes it much easier for them to avail of the services of one of the best dentists in the state.

Meet the updated and inimitable Jackie bag (named after Jackie O). She was seen to have loyally carried the original for many years.
This Fall, it is presented with sleek update and for the first time ever, the bag’s signature shoulder strap is made adjustable. You can lengthen the bag for an easy boho feel or shorten it for a classic put-together look. Goes well with jeans or a pencil skirt. This Fall’s reworked Jackie moves seamlessly from one style to the next.
All yours from Gucci.

I’m a Board certified Medical Technologist and if I practised my profession, I would have landed one of those Medical & Clinical Laboratory Technician Jobs that are highly in demand right now.
It didn’t happen though, as my only medical exposure was during my twelve months internship in four different hospitals. After I was done with the Med Tech Board and I got my license, I switched gears and found my way into the field that I really liked.
Clearly, the degree was forced on me. My late Mom wanted to have a Doctor in the family. The two daughters who became Nurses was not enough for her. I can’t blame her. Although she was an only child, she came from an extended family of many doctors and nurses. That was perhaps what she wanted to replicate.
I have no regrets. The switch that I took many years ago yielded good results. My Mom in the end was more than proud of what I became and accomplished sans the medical scrub clad daughter that she envisioned. From the all too familiar and ubiquitous medical uniforms, she eventually got used to seeing me in my power suits.
I was the classic case of the all too respectful and indulgent daughter who tried so hard to please Mama who eventually wound up doing what she really loved no matter what.
