New Jazz - Burt's Bees: SURVIVAL KIT

Today I received something TOTALLY RAD....

A Burt's Bees Survival Kit!

I love Burt's Bees, however, am yet to try anything but the lip balm (which I love). My care package includes Burt’s Almond Milk Hand Cream, Citrus Facial Scrub, Peppermint Shower Soap, Citrus Spice Exfoliating Soap & Milk & Honey Body Lotion and the Honey . It also includes a herbal blemish stick which, yes, I will surely be using! All this stuff is guaranteed to get me beautiful, soft and blemish free, plus it is all natural.

I tested out the Milk & Honey Body Lotion on a few girls in my office, there were positive comments all around:

• Very Soft
• Absorbs fast
• Not greasy
• Not too strong or overpowering scent
• Fresh and pleasant smell

I look forward to testing out the rest of my awesome package and letting you know what i think of it. So far, I think it's awesome. Stay tuned. xoxo

I've been thinking...

Got an eye for Google, a good idea?

(CNN) -- Got an idea that could change the world, or at least help a lot of people? Google wants to hear from you -- and they'll pay as much as $10 million to make your idea a reality.

Google Inc. will award $10 million to solicit ideas it believes could benefit the world.

To help celebrate its 10th birthday, the ambitious Internet giant is launching an initiative to solicit, and bankroll, fresh ideas it believes could have broad and beneficial impact on people's lives.

Called Project 10^100 (pronounced "10 to the 100th"), Google's initiative will seek input from the public and a panel of judges in choosing up to five winning ideas, to be announced in February.Google announced the project live on CNN on Wednesday morning.

"These ideas can be big or small, technology-driven or brilliantly simple -- but they need to have impact," said Google in a press release. "We know there are countless brilliant ideas that need funding and support to come to fruition." Rest of article.............

Gimme hotness ♥

Speaking of hotness.....

I've received a bottle and gift bag from Givenchy not too long ago containing Hot Couture EDT. At first smell, I loved it. Well... I have had the beautiful bottle in my room for the past month. When the ladies come over for drinks, or before going out, it is common to hear "i'm just gonna steal a little spray of this". Voila! I have shared the greatness of Givenchy and now, the girls all seem to love it. I highly recommend buying it yourself. As for my dear best friends, you can buy me a new one whenit runs out!!! (I joke , I joke!!) Love you ♥

Technology Can Be 'Berry, 'Berry Addictive

Study Finds That 35 Percent Of BlackBerry And PDA Users Would Choose Their Device Over Their Spouse

NEW YORK (CBS) ― Of all the possible things that can come between spouses, you can now add BlackBerrys -- or more precisely -- BlackBerry addiction to the list. A new study reveals BlackBerry's are becoming -- among other things -- the 800-pound gorilla in the bedroom. 'Berry, 'Berry, addictive? "I live with it. I can't live without it," one New York City resident told CBS 2 HD. Yeah ... there's a reason some call 'em ... CrackBerrys. But are you having a love affair with yours? "I am on my BlackBerry more than I see my boyfriend," one woman said. The study of 6,500 traveling executives says 35 percent of them would choose their PDA over their spouse.

"That's a tough call," one said."Oh you don't want to go there," another added. And apparently that attitude is being seen in the sack. Of those polled, 87 percent said they bring their devices into the bedroom(Always!). Another 84 percent check their e-mails just before they go to sleep (And while you sleep, lol!!!!) . Another 80 percent check them in the morning as soon as they get up (Always!) . "It can actually ruin relationships," said Dr. Susan Bartell, a psychologist and relationship expert. Bartell said couples should be interfacing more, but with each other. "People are so focused on their PDAs, they're not focusing on what might be going wrong in their relationships," Bartell said. Of those polled, 62 percent said they love their blackberry or PDA, and most of them said it makes their life more productive. However, experts suggest, for the sake of your relationship, you might occasionally … "Turn it off, spend some time with your partner. Have a real relationship with a living human being," Bartell said.

The study was done by Sheraton hotels. Among its other findings: More than three quarters of those polled say their gadgets give them more quality time with friends and family... and help them enjoy life more.

Go figure.

"A lot of my peer group think I’m an eccentric bisexual. That’s OK. Being relaxed about sexuality is something you’re born with.’ My identity was written on the wall by ancient and formidable guides and forces. The best thing I can do is keep my hand out of it."

420 Volcanic Artesian Water from New Zealand

G'day Mates & Shelia's! Being from New Zealand I was pleased to come across this fancy volcanic water from NZ this weekend at Fresh & Wild.

420 is a super premium water in a bottle that's easy on the eye, feels good in the hand and perfectly fits the clientele of elite hotel, bars, restaurants and cafes. Every drop of water has taken generations to filter through the surrounding landscape. That means the water you hold in your hand today actually fell onto the top of a mountain when my great, great grandmother was the same age as I am now. Which is a fabulous story to tell someone you're trying to pick up in a bar. The 420 spring is situated at the base of NZ's South Islands Banks Peninsula an extinct Volcano. The water fell on the Southern Alps hundreds of years ago and has spent its time meandering across the Canterbury plains to arrive clean and pure to consumers today.

In September 2006, 420 water struck gold on the world stage, winning two top awards at the prestigious bottled water world design awards in Italy. 420 water came up trumps against a record 135 entries from 30 countries, taking home the award for Best PET Bottle and Best Press Marketing Campaign. The gala awards ceremony took place at the San Pellegrino Casino in Italy as part of the Zenith International Global Bottled Water Congress in Bergamo, north east of Milan. ARTICLE

It tasted GREAT!! Represent NZ bitches!!! Yahooooooooooooooooo!
