The Silicone Devices Wireless Bluetooth Headphones fits perfectly on my ears. I have small ears so I'm glad that this fits my ear.
There are ear locks included but I didn't feel the need to use it. The in-ear headphones are light and comfortable.

Power Theory 2500 mAh External Battery Power Bank Review
When we go pier fishing or when we go on long trips, my daughters pass time by playing with my smartphone and iPad. The problem? My battery gets drained easily and in times when there are no sockets available, like when we go pier fishing, there is no way I can charge my devices because there are no sockets on the pier.
In times when there are no sockets available to charge my devices, I'm glad that there are now electronic gadget accessories like power banks and external battery chargers which store extra power/battery for my devices. I was happy to be given the chance to try Power Theory's External Battery Power Bank.
Here is a short product description:
THE POWERCARD - A PERFECT COMBINATION OF POWER, SIZE & WEIGHT. Many products claim to be "the world's thinnest, lightest power bank". Usually that just means they don't have enough juice to actually charge your phone enough to use it. If you compare our ratio of weight (60g/2.1oz), to compact size (3.75 x 2.4 x 1/4 inches) to powerful charge (2500 mAh Real Capacity) you will not find a better external battery charger for emergency situations or those days where you need a little extra power.
NO MORE FUSSING AROUND IN YOUR BAG FOR ANNOYING CHARGING CABLES. A portable battery charger is not really portable if you have to also carry the cables that easily break or tangle. Our smartly designed external power bank has a built-in Micro USB and Apple Lightning Cable meaning you have everything need to charge your phone when you need it the most.
NEVER RUN OUT OF BATTERY POWER AGAIN. External battery packs are a great idea in theory, but we found that we never seemed to have them on hand when we needed them the most. To solve this we designed the PowerCard. Our lightweight design means you can always carry the charger with you whether you are out on business, travel or at a restaurant. Our A+ Li-Polymer battery cell (2500 mAh) means that you can depend on the PowerCard to fully charge almost all smartphones.
The Power Theory's External Battery Power Bank is very thin. I was quite impressed by how thin, light and portable it is. It has a nice white color and it can fit the back pocket of my pants with no problems. The charging cable is already included as well as an Apple Lightning Cable which transforms the micro-USB to an Apple Lightning Connector.
The charging cable for the power bank is quite short but fine with me since I charge it on my work table.
The nice part of this is the light blue charging cable for my device is already attached to the Power Theory's Power Bank. I don't have to bring any extra cable with me to charge my device.
One full charge of the Power Theory's External Power Bank can fully charge my drained Moto G with a little bit more power left to charge my iPad mini a bit.
I've drained and recharged the Power Theory's External Battery Power Bank and it still holds the same extra power as the first time I used it. It is durable and I like how small and thin it is.
There is a LED light indicator at the back of the power bank. When I charge the power bank, there is a red LED light indicator which means it's charging. When the power bank is already fully charged, the red LED light turns off. The blue LED light indicates that the power bank is charging my device.
This is a very small yet powerful device and I really like it. Now, I don't have to worry about my devices' batteries draining when we're out pier fishing or out on a trip.

Fujifilm 10 Pack DVD-R Mini DVDs Review
ABOUT THE PRODUCT:
- 1.4 GB of storage space
- Single use DVD-R discs for DVD-R burner
- Disc size of 8 cm
- Highly compatible for viewing with most DVD players
- Comes in a quantity of 10 DVD-Rs on a spindle
I found these Mini DVD-Rs by Fujifilm very handy when I want to copy or transfer our photos to a hard copy. Each Mini DVD-R has a 1.4 GB storage space (I can more or less store 350 4 MB photos in each DVD). They are single-time use only so I make sure to use up all the storage space so that I can maximize each Mini DVD-R.
I like how cheap these mini DVD-Rs are because they're only $6.99 for a 10-pack. That's just 0.69 per mini DVD and the quality of each mini DVD is nice.

A Whole New Way To View Instagram Using #Cube
I like sharing our photos on Instagram because I feel like it's more dedicated to sharing photos and short videos compared to the other social media sites I have. So when I received the #Cube, I was so excited because I couldn't wait to see what I can do with it.
#Cube™ speaks to the enormous popularity of photo-sharing sites such as Instagram by enabling the socially connected to enlarge their viewing experience of photos and videos, from the smaller confines of a smart device. It is an extremely innovative, attractive, & easy-to-use wireless living photo canvas which showcases your favorite social photo & video streams.
I received the #Cube in a nice box. I opened the box immediately and was impressed with how the #Cube looked.
I received the #Cube in Classic Color and I can't help but notice the red, yellow, green and blue strips of colors which reminded me so much of the Instagram's logo. :)
I read the directions to see how it works. The buttons on top of the #Cube are so cute.
The #Cube connect via WiFi and has a rechargeable internal Li-on battery. I can bring it on the go and set it up as long as there's WiFi!
The screen is touch screen (cool!) and I can manage what I photos or images I want to see on my cube.
I can choose the option of viewing my feeds, feeds from a specific user, feeds from my liked photos/videos, feeds from a particular hashtag and popular feeds.
Here are the things I like about the #Cube:
Right now, I'm using the option of viewing photos from the hashtag of my two daughters. I place a specific hashtag when I post their photos so now, it's like I'm viewing their photo album.
The videos on Instagram also plays on the #Cube with sound a nice sound quality. The volume is adjustable depending on how low or loud I want the volume to be. :)
When I'm on my feed, the #Cube automatically updates new posts from my friends and family so I don't have to do anything to update my feeds.
I can also like a photo or video by pressing the heart button on top of the #Cube which is a nice feature.
This is portable and connects through WiFi so as long as it has a charge and there's WiFi, I can bring it on the go with me. :)
I'm loving my #Cube and I love its features. With just a push of a button, I can keep up to date with my friends and families' posts without having to log in to my Instagram account in my PC or my phone. It's also a nice way to display pictures when friends and family come over since I can choose to view only the photos with my specific hashtag. :)
There are 2 other colors available for the #Cube. Find them HERE.
