| Am I officially a dinosaur? |
I bet everyone knows that I turned the big 3-1 this month! It's my last year on the calendar, haha. I don't feel old-er (err..maybe I have become sleepier than usual) and I'm still the same Kira (at least I think so), but I just want to say that I am so happy that you've all been tuning in to my inane thoughts all these years. Yay, I love you guys :)
Anyway, here's a quick giveaway featuring some of my favorite products, brands and services. It's a tad late as I just got back from my trip and was immersed in work, so sorry for the delay.
I'm giving away this roomy aztec-printed bag from Irene of Lean and Fan International. But the clincher is, what's IN the bag?

I'm a really boring person and i can't make up my mind on which got me super high. some items that got crossed: ride a roller coaster that has a 360 loop, spend a day in a foreign country on my own, ice skate, watch a movie in a theater alone [was in college when i did this], climb to our rooftop, successfully bake cookies, muffins then cakes.

I was researching about BB creams at google and I read your review and I instantly followed you via email (office email so I won't be missing any of your blogs).
the most meaningful (I won't be using the word exciting... Not the right word to describe it) happened to me to date was I undergone a major surgery last September 5. You see, I had a very rare congenital disease in the lungs (bullous lung desease). I was diagnosed 2009 but finally had the guts to take it out this year. I undergoe a Lobectomy, a procedure that required to remove a part of a lobe (the whole left upper lung was taken out - as in half of my left lung!) I was in the S-ICU for a week and stayed at the Heart Center for a Month. I endured a very painful recovery. Doctors had a hard time because I'm allergic to most pain killers. I thought I Couldn't make it. They even installed tubes to take the water and excess blood in my depleated lung. I'm glad my hubby and kids were there to give me the willpower to live. Miraculously, I'm well and now back to work... Thanks to friends and family who supported and prayed during my ordeal. I'm loving life more!
Another thing I accomplished in my bucket list... I lost 25lbs... Via Yoga and eating less carbs! Yeah! : )

I've tried bungee-jumping, riding a zipline, creek diving, and petting a tiger. Nonetheless, all the excitement I got from such things did not compare to the excitement I got from throwing a party for underprivileged kids (orphans and children whose future remains unknown due to life-threatening illnesses). It was exciting and at the same time heartwarming to hear their stories and dreams in life. :')
