Crappy Schools, and Lifetime Goals~

I'm frustrated. For the past 2 years I haven't learned anything important in school. For a person like me who wants to excel and become so successful it bothers me. So me and my friend Katie started something that's almost like our own little school. We study using Khan Academy (It covers SO MUCH. Tons of science and math. I got it on my iPhone for free, just search Khan Academy on the app store.) I love it and completely recommend it. Anyway, since my social life is almost completely non existent, I have plenty of time to study and whatnot, though I rarely do because I hate science and math. With a passion.


When I grow up I want to be a veterinarian. I love animals so much, and am willing to take a job with a very high debt to salary ratio. This profession requires about 8 years of studying, paying a crap ton of money, and balancing school with any other activities. Ive added up the debt that I'll get doing this and its about 200,000 dollars. Like, holy poop. So I've decided that it would be beneficial if I got a full ride to some college and got some kees money to go with it(: (Maybe I've gotten some of this wrong. Correct me if I did please ): ) All of this requires dedication, effort, and a focused mind. Honestly, it seems like so much work. What a drag.




Meh, its like 2:30 in the morning. I should probably quit ranting and go to bed. G'night(:

DIY Green Tea and Sugar Scrub~

Hey there:D So I've been doing stuff. Anyway, I'm back with a new DIY Scrub(:


Green Tea protects your skin from sun damage, contains a crap ton (which is a lot.) of antioxidants, rejuvenates skin cells, has natural anti-bacterial properties, fights inflammation, and reduces redness. And sugar is a great exfoliant  (Google Chrome is telling me I spelled that wrong, did I? It wont come up with an acceptable correction. *sighs*) So by mixing them together, it makes an excellent scrub that makes your skin so soft(:


My skin altogether is okay. I have normal skin with an oily nose, but all of it has a pretty rough/uneven texture. So after trying this, I was completely amazed at how much this worked. Here's how to make it(:


You take about a tablespoon of sugar, and a teaspoon of green tea, and mix them. (Measurements don't have to be anywhere near that. In fact, you could make it anyway you wanted as long as it wasn't too runny or too dry.) That's pretty much it :D And you put it all over your face. I guess it didnt matter what you used to put it on, whether its your fingers (make sure your hands are clean.) or a foundation brush or what, as long as it serves its purpose.


By the way, I recommend only using this about once a week. It exfoliates really well and I wouldnt see a point in using it anymore than that.


Enjoy!

Exercising~

Hey gorgeous(; Exercising is the bane of my existence. I hate it. But more recently I have been determined to get into shape. Cross Country is coming up anyway, so whatever. Ive been running 10 minutes straight a day, which is usually about a mile a day, which kinda sucks, but I'm a weenie xD


So anyway, when I first got into the exercise craze, I was WAY into it. Like, 400 sit ups a day, 100 push ups, (crappy ones, but nonetheless) 300 leg lifts, etc. It was awful. You cant begin to imagine how sore I was.


So if you're serious about getting into shape, I guess I recommend running. My stomach looks alot flatter since I started and I've heard that sprinting works better than jogging, which is what I've been doing. I'll have to get back to ya on that(:


Ugh I'm so busy. I realize this video was not helpful at all xD It was more like a glimpse into my life and how I talk when I'm not... as professional. Sort of :S


Enjoy(:

DIY Oatmeal Scrub~

An oatmeal scrub is one of the best face cleansers. It opens pores, flushes out dirt and toxins, can be used to treat irritation and itching, and has anti-inflammatory properties. The best part is is that anyone can use it, because its suited for every type of skin!


To make this mask, all you need is oatmeal. That's it! The only drawback is that you can't use any flavored oatmeal. 


First, you need a handful of oatmeal. You can wet it any way you like but I  find that the best way is just to get a handful of oatmeal and clench it in your fist, and run your fist under a stream of warm water. When it gets wet (you'll know when) then open your fist, and press your fingers into the oats. You should see a milky looking liquid come up, you can drain this or put it on your face if you'd like(: After this, you rub the oatmeal all over your face, and wash it off with warm water. Because this mask opens your pores, be sure to do an ice facial to reduce the size of them. (Ice Facial= rubbing a regular ice cube over your face. It takes some getting used to.) 


Enjoy! :3
