Natural Cold Remedy: Detoxifying Bath Soak | Beauty Bets. March 4, 2011 The last few weeks it seems everyone has been hit with the horrible late-winter cold from hell: wheezing cough, runny nose and an aching body.

I am Style-ish: Glitter... Everything! Ever since I made my glitter clutch, I've been looking around at everything that we have around the house that I can glitter. I told you I had a lot of glitter projects to share, I finally gathered them together to photograph! First up are these little tea light holders that were totally boring on their own... I put together a mixture of Mod Podge and glitter (same as the glitter clutch) but this time I dumped the mixture in the candleholder, swirled it around until it covered every area and then let it dry upside down for a day. Now, they are adorable and I keep one in the bathroom to hold my bobby pins which has made my life so much easier when doing my hair! Obviously the other thing I glittered was my iPhone case.

*A note on the tea light holders, you can still use tea lights in them even with the glitter, just get the battery operated ones. I filled it with my lipglosses and lip liners. There are so many things you can do with Mod Podge and glitter.

Now, with our disposable culture, plastic bottles have replaced this system and have consequently become one of the many banes of the landfills. We need to rectify this wasteful and eco-nomically expensive practice.

Instead, the 20-year-old is more likely to be found tending to her vegetable patch. “I think I was just born with an intense love affair with trees,” she laughs, curling up barefoot on a sofa on the rooftop terrace of the Hotel Martinez, her wooden Marni platform shoes discarded on the floor. As a former child actor, Woodley has more in common with the world’s Lindsay Lohans than would appear. Most people know her as Amy Juergens in the ABC Family drama “The Secret Life of the American Teenager.”

RELATED STORY: Cannes Report: Ezra Miller's Crossing >> With another two seasons to go on her contract, Woodley is fitting movie shoots — such as the upcoming “The Spectacular Now” — around her busy TV filming schedule.

That idea is not exactly novel. We've got it down to four words: "Do what you love. " But it's not enough just to tell people that. Doing what you love is complicated. The very idea is foreign to what most of us learn as kids. When I was a kid, it seemed as if work and fun were opposites by definition. And it did not seem to be an accident. The world then was divided into two groups, grownups and kids.

Teachers in particular all seemed to believe implicitly that work was not fun. I'm not saying we should let little kids do whatever they want. Once, when I was about 9 or 10, my father told me I could be whatever I wanted when I grew up, so long as I enjoyed it. Jobs By high school, the prospect of an actual job was on the horizon. The main reason they all acted as if they enjoyed their work was presumably the upper-middle class convention that you're supposed to. Why is it conventional to pretend to like what you do?
