Take a sneak peek into the world that is MINE. Take a look inside my thoughts and my hobbies. This is me, this is how I spend my time...so sue me.

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Toms of Maine. All opinions are 100% mine.
If there is one thing that every member of my family never outgrew, it would have to be love for sweets. Yes, until now, the sweet tooth is still in each and every one of us. It's a good thing, though, that we all know how to take care of our teeth otherwise we would be regular visitors to the dentist's.
There are many brands of toothpastes and other oral care products but if there's one brand we have tried that I can speak highly of, it would have to be the toothpastes and mouthwashes from Tom's Of Maine. It was my sister who sent me my first ever Fluoride-Free Antiplaque & Whitening Toothpaste from Tom's and since then, I have made it a point to order multi-packs from an online store.
Tom's recently launched the Wicked Fresh toothpaste which uses powerful natural flavor oils and a patent-pending botanical extract to provide long-lasting fresh breath. Of course, I had to try it and when I did, I felt as though there was a huge block of ice inside my mouth. My pearly whites became even more white and my breath stays fresh for hours on end. Some of my friends noticed my whiter teeth and they thought I had my teeth bleached. But it's all thanks to Tom's Wicked Fresh Toothpaste.
Incidentally, Tom's will be giving away Wicked Fresh prizes to people who can share their Wicked Fresh moments and experiences. Further details can be found here at the That's Wicked Fresh contest page. If you want to learn more about their wonderful products and other upcoming news, visit Tom's Facebook page or follow @TomsofMaine on Twitter.
As I mentioned before, my parents would be coming home soon. Actually, their arrival is on the 1st of November. Hence, we’ve been busy preparing the house. We’ve made some improvements in the living room. It now has a homey feel to it unlike before when there were no displays whatsoever. My SIL bought some pretty candelabras and some scented candles and even a few centerpieces for the center table in the living room and the coffee table. Our kitchen also underwent a major makeover. The cabinets and cupboards have been repainted a crisp white, we’ve installed a large mirror in the dining room and even bought a few kitchen furniture like a kitchen island made of wood and tiles, a rice dispenser that doubles as a pantry and a few organizers. Since my mom loves to cook, it goes without saying that the kitchen will be her sanctuary so we’re prettifying it. Since we still have a few days before their arrival, we have ample time to spruce the kitchen up and we’re going to shop some more for kitchen furniture, probably a buffet table or a small china cabinet, this weekend. I’m just keeping my fingers crossed that everything will be ready by the time they arrive.
1. I don't know how to ride the bike. It seems weird that I should list it here but it's something about me which most friends don't know.
2. I'm scared of cats. Cats scare me more than dogs do. I blame that on Stephen King's Sleepwalkers.
3. People, especially those who've just met me, think that I'm a snob but I'm not. I'm actually just a shy girl who's afraid of rejection so I tend to keep to myself at first for fear that others won't accept my hand of friendship. But once I warm up to you, you'd think otherwise.
4. People say I'm mataray. I don't think it's being mataray. I think it's part of my defense mechanism, something to show others that they can't take me lightly and I'm not someone they can just put aside and downplay.
5. My first taste of freedom (read partial independence from my parents) came when I was 27 years old. Can you believe that?
6. I'm already 33 but I still think I'm missing an important element in my life. Honestly, I don't know what it is.
7. I was held up by a guy who was pointing a balisong (a type of knife) at me and he took my cell phone. No one tried to help me (I was riding the bus) so I screamed and screamed as loudly as possible. Guess what? The hold-upper returned the cell phone to me.☺
