SNACKING HEALTHILY

Hi I guess most of you think I'm so thin that I don't eat. NO NOT TRUE. I actually snack like 4-5 times a day and sometimes even past midnight. I always feel hungry and it's crazy sometimes. I don't want to gain unnecessary fats, I wanna gain nutrients and etc even when I'm eating so I usually stay away from potato chips, gaseous drinks etc.

So right now I'm going to introduce some HEALTHY SNACKS which I actually make for myself all the time! So maybe you guys can throw away that junk food and replace it with these if you wanna keep fit, healthy and slim! :)

1. Granola and Yogurt + FRUITS
So like you can get any type of yogurt you want, get low fat yogurt or smth ahaha then you put some granola which are the nuts! and you can even add some fruits like raspberries, blueberries, apples, bananas, strawberries! IT TASTES AS YUMMY AS IT LOOKS I SWEAR. There are so many different combinations! Go try it out!

2. VEGETABLE JUICE

I know I know, some people don't like the taste of vegetables and frankly, I'm not such a big fan of them either but I need the nutrients they have! So I usually blend them up together with fruits like apples to make the juice sweeter and to take away the vegetable taste! Here's an example!

 that is Spinach and apple juice :) 

This is 1 cup of carrot juice, 1 ripe medium banana and 1 cup of ice! (it's a smoothie though) 

3. FRUITS

Always always snack on fruits. It's super easy! you just grab all your favourite fruits from the market and go home, dice it all up, put it in a large container, mix it well and refrigerate it! Every time you feel hungry just take out that huge container, scoop some fruits into a bowl and eat it! It'll be cold, fresh and yummy.

That's all I really snack on right now. If I have more awesome healthy yummy tasting snacks that I find out or came up with! I'll let you guys know asap! 

YAY FOR HEALTHY SNACKING!

GOOD LUCK! xx

Haters.

I am blogging about this because someone asked me to write about how to deal with haters. Since many people go through this problem, even my friends, I decided to share my experiences and ways that I find that has helped me. Maybe in doing so, you can resolve yours.
First things first, haters will never go away that's for sure. Everyone has haters and everyone hates someone. No one is liked by everybody because everyone has a different opinion of people. Haters hate because they feel like you're doing everything wrong(disagree on how you live your life etc.) or sometimes it's just jealousy or they just don't find anything in you that they like. That's very normal and common. So I keep this very simple in my mind. If i hate someone, I won't put them in my life and I'll just not be associated to them at all. It really all depends on a person's maturity level. Whether you are mature enough to just not go online and torment a person and move on with your life OR start being some anon and just say bad things/even use your own personal accounts to comment horrible nasty things to others.

As a result haters are actually bullying and it's usually cyberbullying because humans feel that we can't be found or hurt in the cyber world. I'd just like to say that I have friends who cut themselves because of what anons or people say about them online. Most of the times what these haters say are all just made up rumours. Girls, we always use and throw around words like bitch, slut, whore like we just don't care but when you say it to someone, they feel really hurt. It's like you called them smth bad when in actual fact, they aren't. Sometimes haters just have nothing to say about your personality and just start commenting on your outlooks, saying your ugly, you need plastic surgery, your face makes me wanna vomit. ew. YUCK. etc etc.

Yea I usually get comments about how I look. All my haters just criticize my outlooks but I really don't care because I was created this way by God. I don't believe in plastic surgery so I learn how to embrace my flaws. I work with what God has given me. I believe every girl wants to look pretty and be beautiful inside out. We all are jealous over models and tumblr girls. But we all look different. Every model is different, every girl is different but they embrace what they have and that's what makes them so beautiful. I always say every girl is beautiful because it's true. Once you have a beautiful heart, it will show on your outlooks. If you don't like the way you look, do something about it (not plastic surgery) but like if you find that you dislike ur body shape, go exercise, have selective diets ( don't become anorexic though), you don't have a flawless face? take care of your skin more, spend more on facial products that will help. MAKEUP WORKS WONDERS. I've seen many girls wear contacts, a little eyeliner goes a long way. There are so many ways! But do this not to please others, but yourself. Just because one person said you're ugly, your eyes are too small or smth doesn't mean you go change it. It's not worth changing yourself just for that bunch of stupid haters. There are other people out there who loves you for who you are, maybe you just haven't met them yet. Everyone, especially girls, go through this hate thing because we are all very emotional and we sometimes just wanna insult others to feel better about ourselves. 

I guess to deal with hate is to ignore. At first it's going to be quite hard because you will feel that no one cares and no one loves YOU. and like ur never good enough. But you got to look at the bigger picture. Those are only words of a few people. You have lovely friends, a lovely family and if you know that you're not a bitch/slut/whore. Then why are you so upset? Just delete, block them so you won't see those comments anymore. Once you have confidence in yourself(not cocky) people will realize that you're confident in who you are and that your personality is amazing. But of course there will still be haters that are gonna insult you. But those are just words. 

There was this one time people kept asking me to kill myself because I was too ugly. I really almost did . But I have such a caring family and a small group of lovely friends that it wasn't worth it. Instead of looking and caring about what the haters say, look at what your friends think of you! :) Keep calm by idk listening to music? Venting on the guitar? I sing to express myself. Or hang out with friends so that you don't feel so alone. 

You can't get rid of haters. Everyone will have them. But learn to deal with them and adapt to the situation! Be strong, be who you are and if people don't love you for you. I WILL <3 HAHA but i'm sure there are a lot of people out there who wouldn't want you to hurt yourself or feel this way because of haters.

GOOD LUCK! xx

KEEPING FIT AND THIN!

I've been getting a lot of questions on how and why I am so thin and frankly, it's all because of my super high metabolism rate! If you believe it or not, I don't skip meals, I don't go on diets, I don't starve myself, I snack every night and eat more than 3 meals a day! HAHA
I get a lot of people telling me I'm too thin and it's really not attractive while others telling me they love how thin I am and wish they can be as thin. I guess being too thin is really unattractive but I'm seriously not doing anything on purpose to be thin. In fact, now I am trying to gain fats! 

So I'm just going to blog about what I usually do that I think that contributes to my high metabolism and how I am skinny.

1. WATER


WATER IS GOING TO BE YOUR BEST FRIEND. ZERO CALORIES AND IT'S CHEAPER THAN YOUR SOFT DRINKS.
I know everyone would have probably heard this saying where you have to drink like 8 glasses of water every day. But guess what? It's true and frankly I can't seem to do that. So what I recommend is to bring a water bottle to school then you won't have to buy drinks during recess and you can drink it during classes. Exercising will also cause you to be thirsty so that will make you drink more water while keeping fit! Also, have a glass of water before and after meals! In that way, I'm sure that you would have drank more than 8 cups of water every day! or you can just set a timer in your phone remind you to drink a glass of water :)

BENEFITS OF WATER:
1. It increases your metabolism rate
2. It flushes out toxins from your body
3. Higher chances that you have a healthier body
4. Weight loss because you substituted soft drinks for water
5. It hydrates you and keeps you energized!
6. Reduce digestive problems

2. EXERCISE

I found this online and I do this all the time at the gym instead of keeping to the treadmill.
If you don't know what are the crunches, don't worry! There are a variety of them below! 

I found this online as well and I do follow them because it has worked for me :) This the leg exercise!

WANT A THIGH GAP?

I usually do the saddle bag buster which is basically raising your legs up and down while lying on the side of your body!

For arms, I do weights but not heavy ones because what I want is basically toned arms instead of bulky arms! So I would grab a 2kg? 

3. YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT
I'm sure a lot of people have heard this quote before but it's very true. I think your diet plays a part in becoming thin. When I say I snack every night, doesn't mean I snack on junk food all the time. I munch on some fruits or have some yogurt. I also think if you feel hungry all the time, prepare a box of fruits in your fridge. So that every time you feel hungry, you can just eat the fruits that are already been sliced and fresh. I don't recommend girls in their teens especially if you're below 18 to go on diets. It's our puberty stage and you need all the nutrients you can get to grow tall, build stronger bones etc. Don't eat less, just be selective on your food. Eat salad, more vegetables, fish, meat and fruits. Personally, I really hate vegetables so my dad helps blend them with apples and I drink it. That way I can be healthy even if I don't eat my vegetables. :)
Don't skip breakfast, that meal gives you the energy for your entire day! I really really think that we shouldn't skip meals! I think every meal of the day has it's purpose! So if you really wanna slim down, just be selective on your food choices, exercise regularly and make water your ultimate best friend forever!

It's really that simple! Just be diligent and you can achieve anything you believe!

GOOD LUCK! xx

Makeup Foundations

WHAT FOUNDATION SUITS YOU THE BEST?
People do ask me what type of foundation I use and what brand is the best. However, what foundation I may use may not be one that suits your skin type. I'm not some makeup expert but there's are some things I picked up from friends experiences and learnt while experimenting with different brands/types of foundation. So today I'm going to tell you all the different types of foundation available.

1. Oil-free foundations
What I found is that most of these "oil-free" foundations aren't actually "oil-free". These foundations always contain oils or other ingredients that acts/feels like oils, like silicone. They dry on the skin with a matte finish, usually you won't get a dewy look. They do appear thicker on the skin and have no shine. 

Good: It's a good choice for people who want coverage that has no shine. They last longer on people with oily skin!

Bad: It can make your skin look dry and it may be flaky! (but this is only found in oil-free foundations that contain talc)

Example: Clinique Stay-True Makeup Oil-Free Formula
2. Liquid Foundations
This type of foundation isn't oil-free either! They suit people with normal to dry skin the best!! 

Good: It suits people with normal to dry skin as this kind of foundation allows eyeshadows, blushers and bronzers to blend on effortlessly and evenly on the skin. Mistakes are easy to erase as it can be buffed away.

Bad: Not a good foundation type for oily or combination skin. People with oily/combination skin, when they wear this type of foundation, it can make their face show a lot of shine immediately.

I use this type of foundation and I actually recommend it to a lot of people as I find it creates a beautiful glow on the skin and it prevents darker skin tones from looking ashen. If you don't like the shine, you can always use powder after putting on the foundation!

Examples: Mac Studio Fix Foundation
3. Oil-based Foundations
Obviously these foundations have oil as one of their ingredients. They tend to feel greasy and thick, they always look greasy on the skin which makes the foundation sheer when you blend it.

Good: Suitable for people with extremely dry skin/wrinkled skin. It will help them look dewy and moisturized, which minimizes the appearance of wrinkles.

Bad: They tend to turn orange on the skin because the oil in them affects the colour in the foundation. The typical way to apply this foundation is to actually use a damped sponge so that it goes on your skin thinly, but that can also cause the makeup to leave behind streaks. Even if you apply powder after it, your face would look "cakey" and you will look like you're wearing very heavy makeup. 

Examples: NARS Balanced Foundation
4. Pressed Powder Foundations
They look like a pressed powder, but they have a bit more coverage and is able to stay put on the skin. They usually have a silky, creamy feel to the skin when applied and can be blended easily.

Good: Suitable for people with normal to oil/combination skin. They last throughout the day and doesn't change colour. It doesn't feel heavy on the skin. It's also best for those who wants minimal feel and appearance from their foundation. They work well over sunscreen as it takes down the shine.

Bad: If you have dry/flaky skin this isn't suitable for you. It is a powder foundation thus it will be too drying for someone with dry skin. It also may cause oil resurfaces on the face during the day for people with very oily skin.

Examples: M.A.C. Studio fix Powder Plus Foundation
 


5. Stick Foundations
They come in a stick form. They can be used as a concealer and usually have a wider selection of shades when sold.

Good: Blend on quickly and easily. Has medium coverage. Works well for those with normal to slightly dry/slightly combination skin. They don't require a powder to set. 

Bad: If you apply powder, it may give you a cakey, heavy look. It makes people with oily skin look more oily. 

Examples: L’Oreal Quick Stick Long Wearing Foundation SPF 14


6. Gel Foundations
They come in a gel form, easy to blend and it stays on the skin very well. It's easy to spread all over the skin. It covers redness very well.

Good: Suitable for combination skin, it's very easy to blend and coverage is medium. It feels very light weight on the skin.

Bad: It doesn't cover blemishes and scarring totally so you would still need concealers. It doesn't last all day and it's not really oil-controlling.

Example: Maybelline Aqua Gel Foundation



I don't believe that these are ALL THE FOUNDATION TYPES. But these are the ones that I know of and know information about. Right now, I don't always use foundation as it clogs up your pores! But when I do wear foundation, I use the Mac Studio Fix, The No Foundation Foundation by Perricone or the Maybelline Aqua Gel Foundation.

GOOD LUCK! xx

GIRLS ASKING GUYS OUT?!

idk why but i decided to start my first blog on this issue about "Girls asking guys out on dates". This is probably because if you're a girl, you'll probably have friends around you that rant to you all the time that they like this guy but they don't know if he likes her back etc. and she's shy. 

Normally, I would say most girls will NOT go up to the guy and actually ask him out.
Probably because:
-scared of rejection
-scared to embarrass yourself if he doesn't like you back
-scared you're not good enough
-scared there's a better girl
-scared that he already has someone in mind
-scared that when you open your mouth, the words don't come out/you say something stupid.

so BASICALLY WE GIRLS- not all of us, ARE AFRAID.




so let's ask ourselves


IS IT BAD FOR GIRLS TO ASK GUYS OUT?

answer: no.

SHOULD GIRLS ASK GUYS OUT OUT?

answer: YES.

Girls should and can ask guys out on dates if you like him of course. Girls we are now in the 21st CENTURY. There is no wrong in girls asking guys on dates at all. However, I understand some of you disagree on my opinion but even if you disagree, ask yourselves; IS IT WRONG? 

Women in the past, has fought for our present people to have an equal footing with men. So, why would it be wrong for a girl to ask a guy out? I think that girls who actually have the courage to ask their crush out deserves a clap. 

Those who thinks it's not wrong but still won't do it, I don't blame you. It's pretty hard for starters and you'll feel weird, and like something obviously bad is going to come your way. But I think with friends supporting you and having inner courage to stand up for yourself, you'll be facing your fear in no time ;)

And to those who have a problem with this and thinks that it is wrong: STOP ASKING FOR EQUALITY.

Also, some guy friends tell me after girls have confessed to them, sometimes they feel the same way and it takes the pressure off them. Even guys who have rejected girls feel that it was brave enough for the girl to come up to them and ask. Guys really respect those kind of girls. Girls that takes her stand and has confidence in herself.

I know we are influenced a lot by movies, books that we read, tumblr pictures etc. It's always about the guy asking the girl out, flowers, romance, sweet, happy ending. I guess if you want that then you'll have to wait very long unless your guy is very confident and not shy in asking you out. But it's totally up to you.

I have asked a guy out myself before. I admit it's very heart racing but he did say yes and we did go out for one date. It didn't work out afterwards because after that one date, we realized weren't really that compatible as we thought we were. But he did say yes. So if you know this guy for quite some time and you have feelings for him, and you're not sure if he feels the same or you think that you're friendzoned. JUST ASK. PLEASE. Even if it's a no, at least you know it and you take the pressure off yourself. Who knows? Maybe he says no now but after some time he realizes you're amazing, beautiful inside and out, confident and have a great personality. He just might come running back saying yes ;)


OUT OF TOPIC: For me personally, I think that with social networking websites these days, a lot of people ask each other on dates or "will you be my gf/bf?" online. Frankly, I don't like it. Because you don't see eye to eye with each other, you don't have the spark in between if you actually ask in person. I think that asking out someone in person is more romantic, sweet and it shows that you really love them.


but this is only how I see it, it may not be the way you see it but I think there's some logical reasoning to my opinion on this topic!


GOOD LUCK! xx

START

So since a lot of people ask me why I don't have a blog, let me just tell you, it is because I have NO CLUE on what to blog about really. Maybe some of you guys can bring up ideas, tell me what to blog about and I'll write my own opinion! 
www.formspring.com/babykyliee

Obviously I am very busy with my studies this year and I am trying to concentrate and do my best so I'm not too sure if I would blog very often.
But I'll TRY!

Also a lot of you guys ask me to create a youtube account! HAHAH when i first heard that I kind of laughed to myself because I also have NO IDEA on what to really post on youtube either. Some friends have asked me to post up covers of me singing but guess what- KYLIE IS A SHY GIRL. I am still considering that option but for now it's a no? However, if there's anything else ofcourse, you have any suggestions etc. feel free to ask:)
