):

Well, I think my facial skin is not behaving itself. ): The eczema rashes (red and angry) are appearing on my face again! And the facial doesn't help. >:( stupid woman cheat my money. Actually, it helped drastically on the first facial I went to though, subsequently, the woman who helped me do my face the first time passed the job to one of her employees, and not that she isn't good, but she kept forgetting to use the oxygen thingy until the last time I went. But then again, the oxygen thingy wasn't effective this time round, and because she used some new product to make my face less dry, I think my face got worse now. ):

How now brown cow?

Any tips for eczema sufferers?

I've tried nearly anything. From...



1. Steroids cream/protopique by dermatologists. They heal and then come back again soon as I stop using. And 1 side of my face has veins showing already. >.<

2. TCM. Which made my face get worse because I'm apparently ALLERGIC to her cream although she kept denying.

3. BRT. It really kinda worked, but effect is fluctuating, and it's EXPENSIVE. Oh, did I mention that the above 2 are also very costly?

4. Facial. It worked very well on the first visit, but then, it's losing its effect already. >.< And it's not cheap either.

5. Using Shea Butter Raw, but I used it when I was on the TCM treatment, which didn't help either.

6. Using Rose Hip Oil, which a fellow eczema sufferer in Singapore suggested. But it didn't really calm my eczema down too.

7. A costly bottle of Emu Oil. Which itched when I put it on. Maybe because I didn't wash my face with cleanser then because I was afraid of allergy to the cleanser.



Ok. So now I'm waiting for my Mario Badescu's Control Cream (recommended for eczematic skin) to arrive from overseas? I'll let you know if it works.

Oh, and does anybody have personal experience of clearing eczema up with diamond water?

Eau De Senteur Perfume

So yea, I know I've been MIA for quite a while because I've been quite busy with school. It was a crazy week last week. On tuesday, I had my first full day lab session. It was a horror. I ate my lunch in 10 minutes. >.< And I broke 1 round bottom flask. >.< My first time breaking a glassware in the science lab. Oh the horror. I think it was because I finihsed my experiment and everything at around 5+pm and the lab people were preparing to keep their stuff and go back home already, but then, because we were so kan chiong, they switched off the lights already, and we were rushing about keeping the glassware when many glasswares were broken. I swept the broken pieces of my glassware up and proceeded to keep the rest of the apparatus with care. ): Oh wells. I need to work on being a professional worm.

Anyway, recently I participated in a giveaway on vivawoman's blog. And I got myself a Hello Kitty Eau De Senteur Parfum. Meaning a perfume without alcohol! As I have eczema (it's a sad story.) I can't use anything with harsh chemicals, so I decided to try my luck in winning this, and I got it! So this is the picture of the perfume. :D



I love how it's like pink. And has the cute hello kitty imprinted on it. Gosh. Cute TTM. <3 And the smell isn't too strong. I like it that way! :D Maybe going to wear it on the first day of chinese new year! Excited!

Ideal worm

This is well, my first post. First of all, I have to share with you my ambition. My ambition is to be a professional worm. How cool is that? I'm sure many people won't think about being a worm as a profession. But let me share with you, being a worm is actually not an easy task. In case you do not know what worms are, I'll share some pictures of them.



Ok, let me clear up the common misconceptions of being a worm first.

1. Worms are parasites. We feed on other people/ beings. But that is NOT true. Some worms aren't parasites, some of the worms do work! Like earthworms! Earthworms eat soil (and pass out soil almost instantaneously) so that plants can better breathe through all these small burrows.

2. Worms get to enjoy life because we are so nua. Wrong. Because being a worm constitutes of being nua all day, it takes skill to be nua! I mean, can you not do anything the whole day? No studying/no working and not playing?! Ok, the best part about being a worm is that we don't have to work or study. But no playing? That's completely boring! But professional worms do play la. Haha. And of course, they enjoy life too. XD

3. Where do worms get their food from if they don't work and are not parasites?! That's a real problem right? I mean, no work = no money = no food = cannot survive. If you say worms have no integrity and thus can cheat people's money because they have no backbone, you are wrong. Refer to point 4. So, point is, worms must be smart enough to earn kaching$$ without effort and without degrading morals.

4. As I said, although worms don't have backbones, most of them have a hard outer layer, aka exoskeleton. So you can take that as a worm can rely on itself ok, not have to lean on other things so that it will not bend and contort into different weird shapes that a worm shouldn't be able to contort into. But then again, worms have almost no shape they can't contort into.

Ok. Nuff crap said. Summary: to be a professional worm isn't a simple task at all, so the purpose of this blog is to teach how one can be a professional worm. That's all. It will include things like how to enjoy oneself with simple pleasures like eating and shopping, and spending quality time with treasured people, and how to earn kaching, lots and lots of kaching $$ without too much effort, so that we can be the IDEAL worm.
