I have an interview on friday...my face was totally clear till 2 days ago...and now i have a terrible breakout...I cant imagine going for the interview looking the way I look now..
And to add to my woes, my grandmother keeps telling me "Ugh, U have a nasty breakout" and she keeps staring at my acne when she talks to me...So I have to change the topic or blabber constantly to prevent her from commenting on it..
I really want to make it at the interview...I cleared a difficult test to get to the interview stage..and I dont want my acne to kill my career too...
I have absolutely no idea what to do!!
I absolutely hate it when my grandma stares at my acne..
I want to hide myself

I'm really sorry! I know how you feel. I live with my grandpa right now and he will make any comment about anyone geez. He doesn't comment on my acne but that's just cuz he can't see very good!! It makes me really angry when he comments on other peoples acne tho, it's rude as hell. Did your grandmother have acne when she was younger? Can you tell her to stop making comments, I mean how would she feel if you did that to her about other stuff? Tell her she is makin you feel worse about yourself!
And crap I am supposed to go to an interview today for a Disney land intership over the summer!! And of course I will prollly end up not going cuz i got a breakout yesterday. But I would urge you to go. If you go I'll go. hehe

I am going to go anyway because I spent 1 year preparing for the written test which I have cleared now..after reaching the interview stage, I cant chicken out..but the knowledge that how I look might just ruin all the effort I have put in makes me mad....life is so unfair...
and abt ur internship job, I am certainly going no matter how shitty I may look...and I hope you will go too...
Let's not let our acne make us losers..Better to have tried and lost than not to have tried at all...
Good luck to you and I hope you make it...go for it girl..
