Under the skin of beauty bloggers
Life, Prapai Kraisornkovit, Published on 18/09/2015
» Although I do not follow any particular beauty blogger, I have read and in some cases tried to follow the advice and recommendations of bloggers. The appeal of bloggers/vloggers is obvious. Getting the perfect smoky eye look takes practice and time. There are also some nuances, techniques and certain products that make it easier to achieve. It is also helpful to watch someone demonstrate how to do it step-by-step, pause the demo, and try the steps for yourself. Hearing someone explain the products that go along with creating the look is also useful; it certainly saves time and effort in perusing the make-up aisle at the department stores or beauty specialist stores.

Life, Prapai Kraisornkovit, Published on 27/02/2015
» It is hard to imagine a time when Facebook didn't exist. Social media has invaded lives and rooted itself in daily routines. The speed with which people can communicate with each other is a marvel of technological advancement.

The fading innocence of little miracles
Life, Prapai Kraisornkovit, Published on 07/11/2014
» I have a new man in my life. He has light brown hair and grey eyes (I think that eventually, grey will turn to brown). He's as handsome as they come. I'm talking about my new grandson.

Beauty and the beholder: no longer skin deep
Life, Prapai Kraisornkovit, Published on 03/09/2014
» When conversations come up about beauty pageants, the names Apasra Hongsakula and Porntip "Bui" Nakhirunkanok are never far from everyone's lips. Well, anyone, that is, over the age of 20. The two Miss Universe winners — Apasra in 1965 and Bui in 1988 — were the icons of beauty for the world. They were two beautiful women, poised, and grand. But before they graced and consequently charmed the world stage, we should not forget that they were first crowned Miss Thailand.

Guiding the tech kids, analogously
Life, Prapai Kraisornkovit, Published on 30/07/2014
» In late June, Alysia Montano, an Olympic-class runner, ran the US Outdoor Track and Field Championships 800m race while 34 weeks pregnant. The news went viral, stirring up all sorts of opinions and outcries on the internet. Montano, who consulted her doctor and received the OK to run, was praised by many (including other pregnant women) for inspiring them to get in shape and condemned by others for being reckless with her unborn child.

Unsocial network
Life, Prapai Kraisornkovit, Published on 25/06/2014
» As a regular Facebook, Line and Instagram user, I find it hard to believe that there is an antisocial media app. I recently heard about Cloak (though I think that it’s been around for a while). Cloak is an app that helps you avoid people that you don’t want to meet. It sounded strange at first. But after some thought, I can definitely see its usefulness. If I were a student trying to ditch a day of school, I would not want to run into people who would recognise me and tell my parents. If I owed a friend some money and couldn’t pay it back yet, running into that friend would not be very pleasant.

Becoming a grandma in the computer age
Life, Prapai Kraisornkovit, Published on 12/03/2014
» I think that most women have a love-hate relationship with the “G” word. When I first learned that I was about to become a “grandmother”, I admit that I had mixed feelings. Initially, I was very excited when my daughter told me that she was pregnant; I was happy that she would get to experience the joy of motherhood and I was anxious to spoil my grandchild rotten.

A second chance
Life, Prapai Kraisornkovit, Published on 05/02/2014
» By the third week of January, I knew I was doomed. Like many, with the start of a new year, I made a New Year's resolution. I wanted to eat better, take a better care of my body and sleep and exercise more. They seemed like doable goals. But as the days of January passed, they turned out to be harder to achieve than I thought.

Sugar-coated fun - but at what cost?
Life, Prapai Kraisornkovit, Published on 04/10/2013
» I vaguely remember video games when my children were growing up. There was a console connected to the television and something handheld called a Game Boy. My kids would pull twisted faces when they played video games. "Your faces will get stuck that way," I used to tease them. For me, video games, like comic books and cartoons, were something that kept my children occupied on rainy Sundays. I did my best as a parent to limit their exposure to violence and rationed their video-game-playing time. But personally, I never took an interest.

Walking a fine line
Life, Prapai Kraisornkovit, Published on 30/08/2013
» When I first heard the news that the Thai police had plans to monitor Line, I immediately scrolled through my Line logs and searched for texts about my sad golf scores and a disastrous picture of me in a not-so flattering dress that I wore a month ago.
