Quote #3



Soft reminder to everyone out there :)
We need to have enough goals to keep us motivated and going everyday.

Daphnee here again. Trying to spice things a little. I would like to share some of my life goals here. 
Some of it is nothing big, some of it are really small matter for others. Some of you might even do it or have it already but not me. Remember, everyone is different!
However, these are the things that keep me motivated and going although I am still unemployed now. Haha. Please pray that I will get my placement soon and be one step closer to my goals alright :)

Long term goals.

1. Owning my own house before I am 30. Save money for down payment ! 
2. Travelling to a different country every year. I enjoy stuff like visiting new places, eating local food and of course shopping. haha. I started travelling out of Malaysia since I am 22. 3 countries so far. 
3. Owning my own boutique or a small cozy coffee shop before I am 35.  

I have beauty goals too. LOL

1. Doing Lasik surgery. I am blind without my contact lens or glasses. 
2. Doing hair removal. hahaha. 
3. Having pretty skin. This will be my life long goal :P

What about you?

I have my bucket list too (to do things before I die). A bunch of list of bungee jumping and stuff like that. Another new addition to my list is watching meteor rain once. Wondering is it possible. Hmmm

Suncreen, do you wear them?

Hello, it's Daphnee here!

I am sharing about sunscreen today :)

Just a simple question here, how many of the people out there actually wear sunscreen everyday? and giving their skin protection from the harmful rays that might lead to some many problems in the future.

Do not tell me if you don't. haha. I am serious. Seriously do not tell me if you don't !

I know a lot of people that don't wear sunscreen which I am not sure they are ignorant or they just don't know how important it is to protect our skin. We have easy access to information and knowledge nowadays that people cannot just ignore the importance of using sunscreen. Not just young adults but also people in their thirties and forties. I practically need to force my mum to wear sunscreen everyday. Ughhh.



I am 23 now and I know a lot of my peers don't even bother to slap on some sunscreen before they go out which is so scary ! I always apply my sunscreen after my moisturizer and/or before any makeup. I am not a specialist but I do know the importance of wearing sunscreen on a daily basis. I religiously slap on my sunscreen everyday no matter I am indoors or outdoors. Although we are indoors, there are sun rays that might penetrate through the window. Unless you are sure you won't be exposed to any sun rays, you might ditch the sunscreen aside then. hehe.

My TOP 3 points of why we should wear sunscreen. Let's show lots and lots of love to our skin okay! :)

1. It prevents skin cancer. Who likes cancer? Nobody. Exactly that is why we need to prevent it because we don't like it. The ozone layer is so thin nowadays that sometimes our skin hurts when we are out it in the sun. Freaking scary !!

2. It prevents premature aging. Who wants to look younger? Everyone. You might not see the benefits now but you will 10 years later. It's proven. Go google it.

3. It prevents pigmentation on our skin. Who likes dark spots on their skin? I know I don't ! I am sure you don't too. haha

Some people don't like the white cast and oily feeling after they apply sunscreen but that is not true at all. There are products that don't give you a white cast and some that even give you a smooth and powdery finish. The key is finding the right product that suits your skin :)

Nobody can love your skin unless you love your own skin. Show some love to our skin together alright :D






French toast and bananas

This is another simple recipe! I am super lazy but I enjoy yummy food so most of the food I make is super easy to make. hehe. Suitable for people that have a sweet tooth or likes bananas. Caramelized bananas is super yums! hehe.

This is perfect for breakfast or tea break.



Ingredients:
1. 1 egg
2. 2 pieces of bread (white or wholemeal is fine)
3. 1 medium banana

Seasoning:
1. A pinch of salt
2. A pinch of sugar (condensed milk or honey is nice too)
3. Cinnamon powder (optional)
4. Butter

Steps:
1. Beat the egg in a deep plate until fluffy. Add in a pinch of salt and sugar.
2. Heat up the non stick pan and add in 1/4 tablespoon of butter
3. Dip the bread in the egg.
4. Fry the bread in medium heat. Add in more butter if you want the sides to be crispier but definitely unhealthy. haha
5. Grill the bananas on the non stick pan until slighty caramelized.
6. Serve the french toast with cinnamon and sugar. (use instant cinnamon sugar powder if you have them!)
7. ENJOY!

and here's my face so you won't forget me :D
