Everyday Conveniences
Tuesday, December 10, 2013My followers on Instagram and Facebook haven't seen me on the social media channels much lately, because I've started a brand new daily routine. J has just opened up his very own sports centre called Titan Sports Centre, and is hosting one of the biggest public futsal leagues to hit Selangor yet, so I've been shuttling back and forth between work, filming, and buying stuff to make the place functional....
....and then I fell ill. And I'm not talking the sniffles here. I'm talking too-weak-to-walk-or-eat kind of ill. It was total hell, but a couple of things got me through it. They're a little naughty, but what better time to treat yourself than the Malaysian flu-season, and the upcoming holiday season, right? ;)
   Okay, so this is pretty, but it's also functional! I bought a sonic humidifier (I think that's what it was) that doesn't use heat to create steam. It also has a little slot for me to drop essential oils into, and it changes colour as it creates steam! I loved it because my throat was so dry throughout the time I was sick, so I managed to keep the sore throat at bay by turning this on every night, with a couple of drops of my favourite lavender essential oil. My room smells absolutely amazing now! And, eherm, let's not talk about the rest of the stuff I bought, kay? ;) |  YouTube is a fabulous place! It has how-to videos, funny videos, makeup tutorials, hauls and reviews...seriously, everything is on there! No wonder it has such a huge membership base. I spent hours on YouTube searching for simple sore throat remedies, looking for videos on cute puppies, and watching Christmas gift ideas and makeup tutorials! Oh, and shameless plug here (tee hee), my YouTube channel has makeup tutorials on a variety of different looks, and if you would like to request a video, just leave a comment here or on my Facebook page, or on my channel! www.youtube.com/emilyquak So these were my little 'treats' when I wasn't feeling well, things I wanted to do just to make myself feel better, and to while the time away whilst I was in bed with not much else to do. Do you have little 'comfort' things that you turn to whenever you're feeling down or under the weather? Do you turn to online shopping like I do? ;) |
