Improving My Alexa Ranking

I want to receive more writing opportunities from paid to post sites like Blogsvertise, Link Vehicle, Sponsored Reviews, PayPerPost and a lot more. That's why I'm trying very hard to increase my page rank from PR1 to PR2. I do these by writing posts more frequently. I hope that I'll achieve that goal anytime soon. But that's not the only thing I'm working on. I'm also trying to lower my Alexa ranking. I want to sign up for a blogging site but I couldn't get in because my Alexa rank is not below 1 million. So good luck to me. They say that Alexa ranking is important because it provides the owner of the blog with valuable information. Website ranking is based on page views and market reach which is determined by the number of users who visit your blog on a given day. Anyone can download the Alexa tool to see their blog's ranking and improve it.

Amazing Alphas

I have a new favorite TV series that I've been watching these past few nights. It's a science fiction drama called Alphas. The series revolves around a group of people called Alphas who have super human abilities. The good alphas are "special agents" who fight the bad alphas. It's somewhat similar to Heroes and X-Men. The good alphas are led by Dr. Lee Rosen who tries very hard to handle his group who each have powers that could destroy others if used inappropriately. The five alphas in his group also happens to have strong personalities to match their powers.

I won't go into details anymore about each person's abilities. Suffice to say that they're all awesome! I want all their powers. The series is very entertaining because of the interesting story lines. Watch it for yourself so you'll see what I mean.

Home Remedies for Dark Circles Under the Eyes

I have trouble sleeping and would often stay awake until the wee hours of the morning. I have dark circles under my eyes that I really hate. But I'm trying to remedy that by using Pond's Gold Radiance Youth Reviving Eye Cream and Garnier Light Brightening Eye Roll-On. There are home remedies though which are way cheaper. Here are some of them:

1.) Use cold tea bags, apply them to the eyes for over 15 minutes everyday.
2.) Cut cucumber into slices, cool in the refrigerator and place on eyes for 10 minutes.
3.) Mix lemon juice, cucumber juice and lanolin cream together and then apply under the eyes.
4.) Put slices of oil-rich avocado under each eye.
5.) Mix equal quantities of corn flour and yoghurt and then apply.
6.) Mix ground almonds and milk, then apply.
7.) Eat lots of vegetables and drink lots of water.

My Everyday Beauty Products

I don't really consider myself vain, well maybe somewhere in between :) I'm already in my 30's so it's just natural that I take care of my skin more diligently. And besides looking good makes a woman more confident. I follow my skin regimen to a T and eat all the right foods (except when I eat out of course!). I also drink lots of water so I won't look "dry" and I never forget my daily dose of Vitamins C and E, courtesy of Healthy Options Antioxidants and Myra 400 E.

My everyday beauty products are: Myra Vitawhite Whitening Hand and Body Lotion, Myra Vitawhite Face Lotion, Pond's Gold Radiance Youth Reviving Eye Cream, Garnier Light Brightening Eye Roll-On, Placenta Herbal Soap, and Celeteque Dermoscience Brightening Facial Wash. I swear at how effective Placenta soap is at making my skin fairer in just 7 days. I don't have much skin problems like acne but I do have dark circles under my eyes (as you can see in the picture) which I try hard to remedy by religiously using the Pond's Gold Radiance Youth Reviving Eye Cream and Garnier Light Brightening Eye Roll-On.

I'm sure all you ladies have your share of favorite products. Care to share?

Jar of Hearts

I heard this song again a while ago. It kinda made me a little sad but nevertheless it's a beautiful song meant to be heard by everyone.


Jar of Hearts

I know I can't take one more step towards you
Cause all that's waiting is regret
And don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most

I learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are
Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are

I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

And I've learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are
Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are

And it took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back

And who do you think you are
Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

And who do you think you are
Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Don't come back at all
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
