Weekend and Documentaries + a Movie




Last week was a book marathon week, I read a total of 3 books ( Congo, The Wolf of Wall Street, Doing More with Less). This weekend, I'll indulge myself with documentaries, coz I love me some documentary!

========================================================================

Sunday

I already finished watching them all! I also squeezed in some book reading yesterday afternoon. I actually finished reading it yesterday (Little Book of Emerging Markets by Mark Mobius)

 Such a productive week for me!


Documentaries I watched:

  • HAPPY PEOPLE : A YEAR IN THE TAIGA
  • THE NATURE OF EXISTENCE
  • FREAKONOMICS
  • FORGIVE US OUR DEBTS
  • THE GREATEST SILENCE: RAPE IN THE CONGO

I also watched a movie by Steven Spielberg entitled GOONIES. Great, old movie! Samwise was in there!


As I am typing this, it is already 2 in the afternoon. I am sipping my 4th cup of Joe for the day. I am also doing my laundry.

Will head out later to return the documentaries, movie and the book ( all mentioned above) to the library.



Currently reading on Kindle (borowed from the library): Brandwashed: Tricks Companies Use to Manipulate Our Minds and Persuade Us to Buy

Lip balm Thursday


I hate cherry Chapstick! ( I know, hate is a strong word, but what can I do? I really hate it.) It make me sick! The smell! Ick! It literally gives me headache! I know, I'm weird! 

But I am using cherry Chapstick for about a month now even though I hate it, because I have it in my stash and I can't bring myself to throw it away. So here I am, using it and just swallowing and ignoring the headache and the smell!

I was waiting for some kind of lip balm sale, coz I'm cheap like that. Then, something amazing happen,I received    $5.00 CVS Extra bucks Rewards! Wohoooo! I finally got a new lip balm, and I got it almost FREE!!! Double Wohooo!! 




CARMEX- My first time trying this. It was recommend to me by my friend. Was eyeing EOS lip balm ( never tried one), but it was out of stock, so I settled for these. Price: $4.29

The first time trying Carmex just a while ago, it had this tingly sensation. Maybe because of the Menthol that's in it. It feels good,actually! 

So, since I didn't reach the $5 total, I had to get something, so I can qualify for the extra bucks coupon. I just added KitKat for 99 cents.




So I ended up paying 28 cents for the two items. Not bad!
