  1. I enjoyed this cold compress after having "one of those days". The peppermint smelled wonderful and I did feel relaxed and a little energized. Be careful not to over do with the peppermint oil and have the compress smelling to strong.

Worked part time as a Telemarketer in Oman in the Crowne Plaza Hotel. <br /> <br />2. Worked as a Certified Professional Tarotist (Tarot Card Reader) and done accurate predicitions for many people from different parts of the world, most memorable of which is the reading I did for my college Law lecturer and it came true. <br /> <br />3.
