i just went to my new dermatologist earlier this afternoon.. yes, i finally decided - realized - that i need a dermatologist.. my first doctor wasn't bad but i can't see her regularly..
anyway, i really like my new one.. i've been seeing her for two or three weeks already and this afternoon was only the first time she pricked some - some, meaning very few - pimples.. that was so unlike my former doc who would prick all my pimples everytime i see her.. she (my new doc) explained to me that in my case, which is obviously very severe, pricking wouldn't do much good becaused within every "elevation", there exists a cavity that contains whatever is inside pimples.. she said that even if we take away the "fluids" from pimples by pricking, the cavity is still there and it would continue producing them repeatedly.. that led me to think about things i should have noticed before..what she said explained why my pimples seem to come and go, all in their "proper places"... for months, i've been having pimples in almost exactly the same places.. they would disappear, only to appear again after some time.. and in the same areas nga.. dahil pala yun sa cavity sa loob.. hehehehe.. it's what my doc called cystic acne...
(i like it when doctors explained to their patients what's really happening.. this is not to say my former doc didn't do the same.. la lang..)
so anyway, she (again, my new doc) gave me collagen patches which i stick to my face overnight... they are supposed to - and they really do - suck whatever is inside the pimples, and after some time, even the cavities would dissolve..sounds good for and to me...heheheheh... i've been putting on the collagen every night for like a week already and in the morning, when i take them out, i see the fluids.. eeewwwww..... but it's effective in the sense that when you sleep with a big pimple, you wake up with a much smaller one, if not none at all..
but the collagen costs waaaaaaayyyy tooo much... but the doctor is family...hhahahahahhahah.... yup, she's what i'd call my grandaunt-in-law..heheh... so, um, you can say we're paying less..heheh...
anyway, i sooo like her personality.. i like it when she talks to me as if i'm in kindergarten (for the record, i hate it when other people do that)... heheh.. she always seem so relaxed, so calm, so "un"-stressed.. la lang.. natutuwa lang ako pag nakikita sya..
but anyway, pls don't think that i'm pretty already.. if you see me now, maybe you won't even notice a difference.. i still have acne.. my face is still reddish.. and still very rough..hahhah...and we still do nothing about the scarssss!!!! but i'm heading in the right direction na... pero still praying... heheheheh... my doc is a gift from God.. heheheheh...
i have a new friend who calls me Em-em... i find it cute when he calls me that.. though i probably won't like it when everyone starts calling me that already.. pag sya lang...hehehehe..
amy and stacy call me mimp... hahah.. cute din.. in a different sense.. it is short for mimi the pimp.. whahahahahah... crazy talaga noh?? lanz calls me mims... ara calls me emz... si alena naman, em...
but nobody beats don.. everytime we talk, kumpleto lagi: Emily Grace... like "emily grace, kumusta??" "emily grace, may kwento??" or simply, "emily grace!!!!"
i just bought my first jessica zafra book..(first kasi i'm planning to buy more) twisted6..i've read only a few articles and i'm already a fan.. hehehe... here's something i really want to quote: "Often i write about nothing. When people point this out, I say 'It's postmodern!' I don't know exactly what postmodernism is, but no one else does, anyway," astig noh??
last na: earlier this week (or was it last week? doesn't matter), my japanese teacher (meaning, my teacher in japanese... the teacher is not japanese) said something that gave me a new perspective about certain things.. i can't really quote him verbatim but what he said has this effect: every time you take a test, you are taking two tests.. first, you take the actual test.. and then there's the test for your integrity.. be sure to not fail the second one...
sige tama na... 1:09 am na eh... bye bye... love you all!!!!!!
Currently reading: twisted6
Currently feeling: ok na ako...
hehehehehehehe... actually NO!!! cause the only reason naman na di ako nakasama sa trabaho was that umuwi ako sa pangasinan para sa libing ng lola ko... now who thinks that's not valid??? 
pero that was so not me... hehehehe... but anyway, nagising nga ako 730 diba? spent my day studying for 2 math and jap... alternately.. i can't study for jap straight cause i was scared i'll run out of time for math.. and when i start studying math, i stop rin after a while cause i realized dami ko pa di naaral sa jap.. ganun lagi yun.. math, jap, math, jap... whaaahhh!!!
