This Blissful Life!

My fifth day of having a sty. And another day out of the office..:(

I won’t say that this is unusual to me because as far as my family members (and me) can remember I’ve the same painful sty last year just about the same season. Though I’m not really sure of last year’s cause, now I’m pretty sure it has something to do with stress. Rushing on editing our whole year photos for two days is kind of stressful especially if you’re rushing for the Printing Exhibit, which only happens once a year.

2. Brushing wet strands to detangle. Instead, stick with a wide-toothed comb to prevent breakage. If you still have time before you’re really have to go out, try to buy some time before brushing your hair. It helps if it’s a bit dry.
