The most amazing scent…

Posted by chillaxinleila on May 17, 2007

On a recent vacation, I visited Brand Alley – a french boutique.

I came across thee most beautiful item…a candle. Being a candle lover, I just had to smell it. It has got to be the best scented candle ever……… I honestly can’t describe the smell to you, it smells fresh and makes me feel overwhelmed in a lovey-dovey sort of way. It is truly breathtaking.
It is a perfect candle to burn for that romantic night in – dinner, movie and whatever comes next.

What exactly is Love?

Posted by chillaxinleila on May 17, 2007

How exactly do you describe love? Is that the point? It’s undescribeable?

Is it that feeling of having butterflies? The feeling that your lost in another world? The feeling that if you speak something stupid will come out? Is it the feeling that you can’t think about anyone else except him? Or, perhaps, the fact that when you get into bed at night he is the last thing you think about? First image in the morning when you wake up? Or the itimate dreams you have that you know you shouldn’t be having?

Is love hitting a high and then a low? Is it being hot and bothered when you think of him? Is it, when you see him, you feel like someone is putting pressure on your chest and you can’t breathe?

I asked a man to describe love; ladies, please note – this guy is one of a kind, I don’t believe there are many out there truly like him, I think I fell in love with him when he answered the question;

What do men think love is?

Connecting, wanting, having, needing, butterflies, the kissing the holding, the smiling, the sound of them breathing, to watching them sleep.. smiling when they smile, frowning otherwise… umm its the feeling of them being everything, and nothing else meaning anything… the mature way of being connected through thick and thin, hard and easy…to love and love and love to love..

I guess he is right, it’s the feeling of the other person being everything and nothing else meaning anything. The feeling that without them – you wouldn’t be you, that without them by your side you would find life impossible. Being loved and loving someone back is what love is all about amongst the other things that we take for granted. . .

When he touches your face, just that gentle stroke, when he kisses your forehead, plays with your hair- these things all mean something, these are the important things, even the silly arguements are what make your relationship special… My mother once told me; what happened the couple that didn’t fight? they lost the battle in love…… you can’t have a relationship and not have tiffs – they are what make your relationship YOUR relationship and noone elses. Those little things that irritate you are truly the things you love about him…….

A thought; Anyone can make you shed tears – it takes someone special to make shed tears because of joy.

High Waisted Trousers?

Posted by chillaxinleila on May 17, 2007

Well, this is kind of funny. I bought myself a pair of white trousers in Mango last week. They had a huge white band around the top – I assumed that you folded it down to look like a skirt over the trousers- and that is exactly how I had been wearing them, until I opened Ahlan (Dubai’s latest english magazine) and noticed – the new trousers this season are high waisted! So much to my embarassment, I had to start wearing them the same way. I actually quite like them. They hide my love handles!!

Hair Falling Out?

Posted by chillaxinleila on May 17, 2007

About 6 months ago, I put wellastrate in my hair. It is a product that is designed to straighten the hair semi-permanently.

Well, my experiment turned into a complete and utter disaster.

After reading the instruction manual and reading that it was ok to put on highlighted hair as long as hair had been lightened previously 4wks before. The last time I had been to the salon was a good 6 weeks, so, no problem.

After about 10mins, my head start to itch, and then almost immediately I could feel my head burning!

Quickly, rushed to the shower, washed it out………

Went to put the comb through it and oh my god, my hair started to fall out in chunks…..my hair was completely burnt. I spent the next few weeks , sobbing….literally.

6 months on and my hair is in OK condition, not the best, but the majority of the hair that was burnt is gradually falling out. Anyone know any natural remedy that I can put to strengthen it.

I know it is only a matter of time before it grows back…I just got to be patient..

I did hear mayo and olive oil could help …. any ideas?

Sort My Life Out

Posted by chillaxinleila on May 17, 2007

Lately, I have been having a lot of problems, a lot of highs and lows.

I figured it was time to buck up my ideas, sort myself out.

I left my previous job, ditched my horrid ex and ended up finding a whole new me!

How many people feel that they don’t even know why they wake up in the morning?

Start asking yourself that question! I asked myself that and really, to be honest, couldn’t come up with an answer.

‘Sort yourself out!’ -I told myself..I started to give myself the VIP treatment every woman deserves;

salon- once a week

new stuff- i indulged in some retail therapy!

let it all out-talk to someone!

Ladies, no point lying about feeling sorry for yourself! Get out, do some exercise, eat healthy and buy yourself something new! And if Mr.Right is no longer Mr.Right-Ditch Him!!!!

Hello world!

Posted by chillaxinleila on May 17, 2007

So, after much deliberation, I finally decided to start a blog.

The type of users I will achieve , well, honestly, I’ve no idea……….but I can tell you-

You will find this blog; interesting, inspiring and sometimes weird.

I’m an opinionated person, I take criticism constructively, although, I do have a very short fuse.

I intend to post about my life, current affairs, sex, success, love, celebs, real-life problems, men, health and much much more…

‘honesty is the key, my friends’

Enjoy

;)
