The weather here in Cali is fresh now yay
Finally maybe my ACNE will calm down without that intense heat.
Dealing with many PIH & waiting patiently for them to diminish soon.
The good news is that I haven't had a cyst for a couple of days now. What a relief.
Overall, another lovely day. Thinking of enjoying the fresh weather by going to the beach or walking a couple blocks to ease the tension.
People just remember "we are our worst critics."
What may look severe to us may go unnoticed by the people that love us. Surround yourself with love.
Doing pretty well today. I haven't had much active stuff at all...I have one small blemish on the side of my nose but I can tell already it won't amount to much. It's starting to get cold in WV now, and it seems like during the fall/winter months my acne isn't nearly as bad as during the warmer seasons.
I can definitely sympathize with you guys on being frustrated about the job hunt. I had an interview with Petsmart a few days ago, was told I'd be contacted for a second interview....and it's been four days and I've heard nothing back. I'm assuming I didn't get the job, which is a total bummer because I would have loved to have worked there. I feel like the interview went really well, but there might have been someone more qualified that they gave the position to. I'm gonna give it one or two more days and then call them just to verify that I won't be getting a second interview.
Meanwhile I'm still applying like a madman...I'm not even picky at this point, I'll take just about any job I can get (except fast food) I just want a steady source of income and the chance to meet new people in life. It sucks so bad because when you've worked most of your young life like I have...you get spoiled by the fact that you always have money to spend. Now I'm on a ridiculously tight budget and I have to consider every purchase carefully...so the sooner I land a job, the better!

try calling them and following up. i think being proactive really helps when it comes to job hunting. especially for retail jobs where it's literally anyone's game.
anyway, the acne on my face looks to be getting better ) keeping my fingers crossed.
Aw! I got an 75 for exam 1 at A&P 2 . It is important for me to get good grades, so I need to pass with a B. I know I still chances . I feel good because of my skin.. I thought it would be bad, but my skin has been looking great lately and that makes me happy.. despite what I got for exam 1. I've been stressing out lately ^^
My red marks are def fadeing!!!
Witch is a wired thing cuz people say accutane slows up the procces of healing , well not for me I guess , people are differenent!
As for my acne I have really 3 small heads , not even heads they are not yellow they are just tiny bumps and one small cyst under on my neck , thank God!!
If I hadn't the red marks I would be the happiest man in the world!!But it's a good thing that they are fadeing and if they keep up this quick fading they will fade completly in 3 mouths from now:D
Happy. My body healed from working out too much, I am going to drop intensity level for a little while. I got a text this morning from this girl I have a crush on and she invited me to her dinner and club birthday party thing next friday so I am super excited about that. Life is a triiiiiiiiiip
I scored a job interview tomorrow. It's at this natural foods store. I'm going to push for a manager position because of my experience at Trader joes, which is the NBA of grocery stores compared to this little new York city place. My skin looks ok. I picked at this one drying up spot, so of course it's red and looks worse than it did before. Of course. And something new that's bothering me. My forehead has been breaking out. I have never had an issue with my forehead and I don't know how treat it. I usually jus get a random pimple or a few black heads, but it's covered in blackheads, red bumps, and clogged pores. It sucks! I might go pick up some witch hazel in a bit to use. Im getting really nervous and anxious for my interview tomorrow because my forehead now looks gross. Ughhhh
Not feeling great about my skin today
I'm meeting up with family today. I haven't seen these people in quite a while so I'm looking forward to it, except that we're meeting in a park, full sunlight - and we know what that lighting is like.... I'm just hoping no one mentions anything about my skin. But you never know what the kids will say...
And because I'll be outside all day I'm putting on sunscreen but I haven't found one that doesn't break me out - so that means I'll probably wake up to new breakouts tomorrow morning
But I'm going to try and focus on the good things today - seeing family, having a break from uni work, enjoying the day and really trying to have a good time
ARGH, Realized that i was sitting in Political Science class touching and picking my face for about an hour. Jeesh ! Can't break the habit. Other than that not to bothered about my acne. Even though i still have many actives.
However, that doesn't stop the boys from talking to me. Which really makes me feel content
Here i would think they would avoid me due to my acne but its the complete opposite. And not just boys, girls too. Met a couple of interesting people this semester so far yay ! for new friendships
Once again people from the .org, Be happy and think of strategies to bolster your confidence. Beauty is a mere adjective but that can be described in many ways and we are all beautiful in unique ways !!!
My skin is pretty much the worst it's ever been, except for about two weeks ago when it was a little bit worse. I'm so depressed. I keep looking at pictures of myself when I had clear skin and crying. I almost never leave the house unless I absolutely have to, in which case I pile on so much makeup and keep my head down and can't look at anyone. I'm trying really hard not to drink alcohol or smoke weed on the new diet I'm on but they're the only things that take away the pain, at least temporarily. I have a boyfriend and we've been together four years, but I'm convinced he's going to cheat on me or leave me because I don't think anybody would want to be with me the way I look right now.

Don't say that about yourself...You're boyfriend is with you for a reason.

Try CeraVe AM (SPF 30). I have been using it for a while now and it's great! Never breaks me out.
Feeling pretty good. I had my job interview and it went really well. I was offered a position that didn't pay enough, and I explained my experience and was able to talk the pay up an extra $1.50. The store seems really cool. It's a small natural food store, with a full juice bar. They juice their own fruits and veggies, which is like heaven for a skin care person! I can live off of veggies now! I'll get 25% off anything in the store, including vitamins, free yoga classes next store, and hopefully develop some new friendships.
I'm still looking for the babysitting or nanny position to make more money, but if I don't find anything by Tuesday, which is when I go back in for my nex interview, that I'll take the job at the health food store. I'm also waiting for a call back from a manufacturing company that needs someone. Don't know anything the job, but the guy emailed me and I'm waiting for his phone call back. So overall, things are looking up. My skin isn't perfect, but I can't let it stop me from doing things in life and moving forward. Any job I get, will just be save strictly save the money, so I can move to Oregon where I wanna live. Once I get my job, I'm going to be a strict budget and save save save. No more $50 sushi nights
My skin is very smooth, but still breaking out.. I don't get it. The breakouts are usually minor. I always get 2-3 pimples every 2 weeks- just when they are fading, I get another 2-3. It's been always like this.. always.. I don't remember a day when I had 0 pimples on my face.

What ever you do, stay away from alcohol and weed. Keep on with your new diet, eat healthy. Your skin will glow and won't have bad scarring. If you keep drinking and smoking, your skin won't look natural.. it will look bad =\
