The Acne Story

My friend is looking for tretinoin reviews. She buzzed me last night on IM and asked about tretinion. I think she is going crazy, she had an acne break out and she is going out this week! Since she knew I am always in front (not that always anymore) of the computer, she asked me where to find the best product to treat it. I gave her some products that I found and told her that she should be careful with it. She should also consult her dermatologist and postpone her date until her the break out is gone.

Now that makes me think how close we are. Imagine, while I am blogging about my acne due to lack of sleep, she is also complaining of acne break out. Is it the new “it”? Acne? Oh please don’t say yes.

D Is For Discrimination

I never thought I would be discriminated because of DSLR. I think I will need anti aging product because I was so stressed out with what happened to me. Earlier, we went to Ever Ortigas to buy some stuffs and bring the kids to Mc Donald’s. So I brought my camera, a DSLR, along. When we entered the establishment, this security guard was eying my dslr bag. He point on it and ask me to open it so he can inspect what’s inside. Upon seeing it, he told me that it is not allowed on the mall. What the!?! I can’t believe it! Why is it that cameras are not allowed on malls? I think they got it all wrong. Come on, malls are now considered as a recreational place for the family. And as we all know, recreations comes with cameras to capture those happy moments. And besides, there are stores on malls that sell cameras. I don’t get the logic behind it.

Back to the security guard, I was really pissed off and then he started pointing at my camera using his pencil. I told him to stop it. And then I told them that I have been going to that establishment bringing my camera along. So they told me I can go inside the mall but I have to use the back door. I felt so discriminated that time. To think that I was already inside the establishment. He is asking me to go out and use the back door. And yes, I was with my three kids and my nephew and he does not even thought of the discomfort it can bring to me and the kids, specially. I hope nobody will have the same experience like we had.

More On The Contest

I have been busy (as I have said) with our upcoming contest. And since I cannot blog and do my online jobs on the morning, I have to stay awake longer. My sleeping habit had changed since Monday. My bed time now is always past midnight and I should be awake at around 4. Physically, I am OK with it but my skin is suffering from lack of sleep. I can see that my forehead is now decorated with acne. Right now, I want to drink acne pills to prevent it from getting worse. This is something that I cannot tolerate, I am so ugly with acne. Don’t tell me I should stop blogging at night because I can’t.

But if you really want to help me, please, pretty please, read my previous entries about our contest mechanics. Read it and read it carefully. It would really make it easier for us if you have less inquiries. Don’t worry though, we would entertain inquires, however small or trivial it is.
