My break out from camping is starting to clear up FINALLY. I'm going to meet up with some friends to celebrate their alevel results so pleeeease skin gods be kind too me. I'm also freaking out a teeny bit because I have an operation in 3 weeks time and apparently you can't wear makeup?!! I know that should be least of my worries but trust me...it isn't. :/ I hope my regimen kicks back in. (although i'm not helping myself, my diet has been actually ridiculous the last week.)
Pretty good. My red marks are being flushed away beautifully. The giant pimple on my forhead flattened and browned....and all i have is a tiny red bump above the middle of my left eyebrow.....thats why I have some what bangs and a littel makeup. Started 8th grade last week, and I know its silly that this makes me happy.....but all those clear skinned bitchy grils finally have acne. Like evryones faces just exploded in pimples....actually alot worse than mine.......which makes me feel so much more comfortable with myself if I happen to get some zits......lol. So im doing good.
I got a haircut today. Just now I took a bath and looked at the mirror. Man, I really think I am a good looking guy, but acne won't let me be. In fact, I don't know that many guys that I (EMPHASIZING THE I) think are as good looking as me. I don't want to sound shallow, but what I am trying to say is: I used to have such a high self esteem and confidence when I didn't have acne... but it is impossible to be like that now. I really mean it, it is impossible FOR ME. I won't be able to be myself again if I don't get rid of this problem
What a depression...
I agree Toshiro, looking at myself in the mirror, it's like someone just spattered on some marks over my face, but underneath that, physically I'm a good looking guy, tall and fit. However, sometimes one can't see past the outermost layer and that's a shame, but I think it is true that you are your own worst critic. I know some people will make ignorant remarks and you'll get stares, but we have to move forward despite how hard it is.
I think we all have to try and look at how much we have to offer, not only for others but for ourselves. I have a technology diploma, and am going into my fourth year engineering, I play guitar quite well, am an awesome cook, can manage a household and budget and so much more. Most people can't measure up to that.
It's hard and I admit I suffer from self-esteem problems but somehow we have to move forward and keep going.

Yeah, I know. I am also halfway through my fourth year engineering. I am looking for an internship and, in fact, last week, a lady from the Human Resources of a great company I applied called me and interviewed me in english (I am brazilian). I think I did pretty well. But everything I do now I can't enjoy as much as I'd enjoy if I didn't have acne.
Anyway... life goes on...
Scared. I mean my acne is wonderful looking. The bad ones on my forehead are goig down. But im getting some smallish just not red, not psusy bumps on my cheeks....Theyre not realyl noticeable...but tonight im with out any acne medciation until i get my suticas 2moro. So im praying theyl lstay small.
It's as bad as it was at the start of the week, my breakout has lasted about 11 days. Sucks and I'm so fed up. But in a strange way, I'm also kind of happy because I've taken a picture each day and I can take them to my doctor next week and say, "Look at this and notice how long this breakout is lasting compared to how my skin was before I started the medication you suggested. Now I've finished that medication, my acne has only come back worse. I've tried all the antibiotics you've given me and it's been long enough, so please let me have Accutane! Here's hoping...
My skin has improved slightly in the past week or so, and I am feeling good about the fact that my post acne red marks are FINALLY starting to fade... on the not so bright side, I spent the weekend away from home and only packed the most basic toiletries so was not able to do my usual routine.. not only that, but had a 4 hour car ride and ending up falling asleep in make up on a pillow that wasn't very clean... not surprisingly, I woke up this morning with a few new spots which I haven't had to deal with much lately. And of course they are the painful under-the-skin type which will take forever to go away 
lately ive been feeling great, i sucked it up this summer and hit the beach a lot(fuck you acne), went camping, lots of tennis and hanging out with my buds, and i saw yesterday that ive actually ended up in the best shape of my life, so im gonna keep working on that and ignore my acne, and to top it all off, both my siblings got engaged within a week of each other, im so happy and excited!!
Last week I got some things aronud my jawline that subsided within a day, not being noticeable.
Than my skin looked b-e-a-utiful for some days....and now like starting Sunday, it wanted to be bitch, i got this giant red dot on the side of my nose. SOme under the skin numpy things on ym cheeks......WTF? WTF? I dont ever get acne in the these areas or like this,.......my skin was looknig fantistico! My forhead cleared too.....picture days 2moro.....juust suck it up. ITs not too bad.
Every kid around me is inflcited with zits too....so not to obad. Still....pissed.
Feeling great today! I have been going without much face makeup these days and I feel wonderful and look much better than I looked with a full face of foundation anyway!
Bumps are finally going away, quite a few red marks, but in my opinion, bumps are worse than marks. I haven't felt this great in a long time! 
Have a great day everyone!
:xxx: 
I am......devasted, in breif. Okay, so i finaly went off my topical Erythromycin last Friday..........and every zit I every teated with it came back form its zit grave. I started In July...how many zits could that BE? That red dot on my cheek? Truned into an angry cluster of them. The ones on my forehead are bumping up and my cheeks are getting whiteheads, my nose getting bright red little ones..............and i have a dance Friday..........................its really not that bad.....but....people say they have no idea what Im tlakng about....and I guess its not as awful as I tihnk.....itsj ust frustrating wkaing up with a bunch of new littel zits.....Erythromyicn was my savior....and my im back to Tee Trea Oil and parying my skin will be nice to me. GOD! But theres no use in worrying about it...so Im gonna be ok.
If it was a person I'd punch it in the face. But it's not so I'm just drowning it in three metric tonnes of concealer and foundation and hiding quietly behind my hair until the working day is over.
Yesterday my boss told me it looks pretty bad at the moment. So much for her not noticing it. D'oh.
