there are 7,107 Philippine islands from what i can remember.

i have 5-6 months left to finish in school. they said that hospitals are starting to eliminate, or stop hiring LVNs. so we'll most likely be found in other health care settings like long-term nursing homes.

i'll pm u.

Are you freaking kidding me? Not that this is relevant to anything but Im wondering, are there more Americans or Filipinos in the world? I know that Chinese are number one and that Indians are number two. Where do you think Americans and Filipinos fall on the list :think: :confused:

When you finish your course, that is when I will tell you what nursing home I work in lol

I love my job immensely but the pay is horrible and I probably wont be working there another full year. I will no longer be under my dads insurance when I turn 25 and Im turning 24 at the end of April. Youre turning 24 May 1st, diba? I remember Im only four days older than you. You are a stubborn mule taurus too huh?

 

nuh-uh. :snooty: the islands are small but the country is crowded just like india. again, from memory, my teacher told us that phils was the 7th most populated nation in the world when i was in first grade. 😛 most flips believe there are flips in every country in this planet.

lol at "diba"! u seem very comfortable using these fil words casually.

i have two sides: softy and stubborn (actually, worse than this word describes, at least when i was younger) :ninja:

we should celebrate either's bday together! 💡

 

Regarding my acne, I have had this one scar on my face that is very light white and its been like four months that there is still pus there that I havent been able to get it. Today it finally came to a head and I couldnt help myself and popped the sucker!

pus for 4 months???!!!!! no way! 😯

night night. 🙂 i spent most of my posts in ur wonderful log. 😉

lol why are you calling them flips? That is a degrading term and you are filipino

Yeah people use the word diba at work all the time. I asked one of them what it means and she told me it means right so Ive been using it lol I also know kuya, ate, tubig, hinday, oo, and some other words I cannot think of at the top of my head.

I have those two sides also haha

What I mean to say is I didnt know how to get the core of those two zits out and now they finally came to a head and I popped the suckers!

:naughty: You havent accepted my facebook invite 😆 and hahaha about you spending most of your time under my log. It does seem that way lately!

well i always thought that the word flip is merely a shortened term denoting 'filipino'. are you really certain it's a racist term?

u got every word of those correct except for 'hinday'. the correct spelling is 'inday' and u pronounce it without any 'h' sound either.

btw, i just replied to your facebook msg. 🙂

Im not 100% sure but Im pretty sure. Calling someone a flip is like calling a Japanese person a Jap.

Really? I always thought it was hinday because some people at work do say it with an h.

I bought CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser today since Im not liking my prescriptives face wash as much as I thought I did. Ive been using it for over a month so its safe to say it isnt the cleanser for me.

you're right. i just asked my friend about the term 'flip'. im not saying what she said it meant coz it's very degrading. i feel ashamed now for using that word. :wall:

that's weird if they pronounced it with an 'h'. they're probably folks from the middle or southern part of the country.

Theyre probably froks from the middle or southern part of the country lmao 😆

Today as Im walking down the isle of trader joes that sells body soaps, I come across Dr Bronners. I had remembered someone from the org had had success with it. I am gonna use it on my chest acne and the rest of my body (except for my face since I have a cleanser for that already) Im about to use it in the shower. It does contain citric acid and jojoba oil which I have had problems with before. I :pray: I dont have problems with them in this product. I spent a lot of money on it and the container is huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge. Hopefully it will last me awhile too!

I dont really use acne meds on my chest because my chest acne are those hypotrophic scars. They are light white bumps. They arent red pimples like I have on my face

By the way, Sherrie, I just sent you another facebook messege 🙂 Have you set it so that when someone sends you a messege, you automatically get an e-mail about it?

some people suggested they were milia, scars, KP or keratosis pilaris, or Pityrosporum Folliculitis.

The four headed pimple next to my lip dried up very nicely overnight, the other papules or cysts or whatever they are that I have are drying up but there are still redmarks even though I didnt pop them or touch them. Oh and lately, Ive been remember to take my spiro everyday. I think this Wellbutrin is really helping my memory :dance:

OMG goodness gracious! My derm called in my walgreens so I can switch to finacea. I thought the finacea is more product than the azelex cream but I was wrong. The finacea is 20 grams smaller! UGH! I guess Ill have to stick to the finacea.
