andcarriesaid says "easy to locate old friends" about Facebook

andcarriesaid — Fri, 30 Nov 2007 22:19:51 GMT

Just like any site facebook has its perks and its draw backs.

I personally like facebook because it is easier to locate people from your past on it because they do make you register with your full name. At first this kind of freaked me out, I do not want my real name out there, but then I realized that the privacy settings do not allow for all of your info to be out there for everyone to see.
Second I like facebook because of the applications. Sure I have far too many, but I have met some really great people through the applications and they give me something to do when I am bored at work. hah. I love the TV triva.
And because facebook is is a 100% open development system you can also make your own apps if you feel so inclinded.
I also appreciate the mini feeds because with over 300 people on my friends list I do not have time to check everyone, or even my closest friends everyday.

As a whole I really do enjoy my facebook account, and now myspace is starting to look more like it with the mini......

andcarriesaid says "Don't leave home with out this shampoo!" about Redken Smooth Down Shampoo 10.1 oz

andcarriesaid — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 21:10:56 GMT

I first tried this product when the salon I was working in started carring it. I had been using the S Factor Smoothing shampoo which I still swear by, but the salon did not carry that one so it was time to switch. At first I was not at all happy, and my boss who I did not like came in the first day after I used this Redkin shampoo and asked me what I did differently. I said nothing. He went on to tell me that my hair looked great, it was smooth and shiny and what ever I was doing I should keep it up. Later that day I realized I had changed shampoos. I hated to admit it but this shampoo does work wonders.

Now I switch it up between the two different shampoos becuase I find the redkin is a stronger product and I do not need to use it everyday.

andcarriesaid says "Sweet tarts that smooth your hair?? ;)" about Tigi S Factor Smoothing Shampoo, Shines and Rejuvenates , 6.76 oz /200 ml

andcarriesaid — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 21:01:20 GMT

Another great TIGI product! - I know I have been raving about these products all week but they really are that awesome.

One of my friends turned me on to this product. You can not help but notice the smell immediately, its like sweet tarts or something. But not only does it smell great it actually does what it says it does. It helps to smooth your hair and adds shine.

andcarriesaid says "Watch ads, plays games, win money!" about Moola

andcarriesaid — Wed, 28 Nov 2007 20:13:18 GMT

Found this great web site through one of the forums I am on. You start off with a penny that the advertisers give you for watching ads. Then you play different games to "make more money". Or you can search the web using their web page (sorta like google or any search engin). Once you get to $10 you can cash out, and they will mail you a check.

Here is a little more from the site info page...

"Welcome to the web's first "AdverTournamentTM"; an ambitious entertainment project which took more than five years to develop and launch for the world to enjoy. Loosely described, Moola is something like a free super-jackpot game show, which allows anyone to become a millionaire on the internet, rather than watching others do so on TV. Similar to a TV game show, Moola is free and relies on sponsors to enable millions of people to vie for serious amounts of cash and prizes. The method used to facilitate competition is simple yet powerful: Sponsors give small amounts of money to millions......

andcarriesaid says "Takes your skin to glam perfection" about TIGI Bed Head - Glamma Powder

andcarriesaid — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 02:43:26 GMT

I love love love this powder... I was very reluctant to switch from my old powder, but when I won this powder and a hair show I figured it could not hurt to try it. Well I am so glad I did. This powder is light reflective and oil-free. It gives you a smooth and polished look. I could not as for a better cover from a powder with out that powder look. It comes in 5 different shades and 1 bronzer.

TIGI – Bed Head makes great make-up and they do not test on animals.

andcarriesaid says "Get your gloss fix!" about TIGI Bed Head - Dumb Blonde Lip gloss

andcarriesaid — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 02:32:03 GMT

I love this lip gloss! Its super thick (maybe too thick for some) and super glossy. It looks great by itself or on top of another lipstick. This gloss will stick in place for a while... but be careful who ever you kiss will be wearing it for a while too. ;)...

I have been in the beauty industry for 4 years now. Bed head make up is one of the best things I have found so far! It is beauty with an attitude. Fun name with fun colors!

These little 4-plays come in 5 different sets. With rich pigments and last color once applied. You can go from matte natural looking to full on night on bright and colorful night on the town depending on which 4-play you choose.

If you try this product and like it you should also check out bed head eye liners

andcarriesaid says "Not as good as the first but still worth the read Mayfair Witch" about Lasher

andcarriesaid — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 20:38:01 GMT

Not as good as the first book in the Mayfair Witch Trilogy (The Witching Hour) but still worth the read. It was a quick read right up till the end. Chracters and still great, but begin to falter. Since I am a big Anne Rice fan I am reading the last book if the series.

andcarriesaid says "Suspenseful and thrilling " about The Witching Hour

andcarriesaid — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 20:31:29 GMT

I can not lie, this book gave me nightmares. Rice captures your imagination. And with it being set in New Orleans which is like a second home to me it made me want to go down there and befriend this family.

At some points, it can seem a bit wordy, but overall, this book is completely enthralling and horrifying. It's very easy to get lost in this book. This is one of her best works. It is also, however, impossible to read on its own. "The Witching Hour" is the first book in Rice's "The Mayfair Witches" series, and, unless you like being left out in the open with no ending, you have to continue reading the series to get any kind of conclusion. Definitly a book to read with all the lights on.

andcarriesaid says "A little sweet and a little salty" about Newmans Own Light Raspberry & Walnut

andcarriesaid — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 20:00:51 GMT

I have always been a ranch kind of girl. But one of my friends introduced me to this dressing and I have fallen in love. We bring it everywhere. It is a light dressing it will not drown your salad, but it has a big taste. A little bit goes a long way....

andcarriesaid says "quick, appetizing lunch solutions, for home or on-the-go," about Kraft South Beach Diet Wrap Sandwich Kits

andcarriesaid — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 19:52:51 GMT

I love these wraps! They are quick and easy. Since I am always on the go, and on a budget these wraps fit perfectly into my life. I even have most of my friends eating them too. They come with two wheat wraps and your choice of chicken ham or turkey and different 'dressings' and a jello. Sometimes I will even bring a small salad if I want to eat it for dinner....

andcarriesaid says "I lke it but my friends all hate it" about Pantech - c150 Cell Phone

andcarriesaid — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 19:41:33 GMT

I personaly loved this phone and the way it looked. It is white which is very unusual for a cell phone. When people see me with it they think I am playing with my Ipod. A few of the problems I have with the phone is that it will "reset" it self randomly, turning off then on again while I am in the middle of doing somehing. If I get too many text messages at one time it will freeze up and I have to pull the battery. The first one I had died with in two weeks and had to be sent back. I have more dropped calls on it than I had on my Cingular 8125. The major problem my friends have is the fact that they can hear themselves echoing while talking to me on the phone....
