I have my first GRE exam tomorrow morning. :scared:
The RAVE is that my husband grilled me a steak and some shrimp to "give me the protein" I need for my big test!! 😀

The best piece of advice I can give is to try to not be stressed about it. I freaked out for my first essay, then did fine after. But that rising panic does not work well!
 
I really don't want to jinx it, but my face has completely cleared up for the first time in a very long time and I'm ecstatic. I always think my face looks worse than it does but still 🙄

I hated my teenage years for this reason. I always made it out to be worse than it was. Once I hit 20 I really stopped breaking out (minus during that wonderful time of the month that all of us girls love so much) but it is not bad at all... I love having clear skin now. :woot: for clear skin!!

I was the opposite. Never had a pimple until 20 years old. I just get the tiny skin colored bumps on my forehead sometimes. No one else can see them, but they piss me off and I pick at them and make them worse lol.

I have one of those magnifying mirrors and I'm pretty sure I just need to throw it away. It's on my desk and on study breaks all I do is pick 🙄

Emi, My breakouts have been bad in my twenties too... I've really found proactiv to work great on me. But it's soooo expensive that I'll use it for a little while, then stop, and use it again when it comes back. Just ordered some a couple days ago 🙄
But yah, adult pimples are the WORST.

They're a P.I.T.A.!!!
My mom is an Arbonne consultant (sort of like mary kay, but a swiss brand) and I have found that one of her products works for me... the baby skin care line 🙄.
My problem is that my skin is so sensitive, that anything like salicylic acid or benz per. dries my skin out and then my skin overcompensates and oils me up. So I started using a baby wash and baby lotion that is pretty much as pure as water and it has really helped me. It was actually hard to switch my mind to "less is more" but it works! 😀 You just can't help but feel awful when you are 26 with pimples 😎
 
Abney - you are too cute!

My RAVE: Today is the first day of my SEVEN week summer vacation before school starts. I don't know what to do with myself! I haven't had a true vacation since HS!

LOL! Thanks! Well......My tentative score is between a 1250-1270 based in the ETS conversion charts 🙂. 164V, 148Q:scared:

Not sure if UGA looks at overall score or section scores, but my quantitative is a bit on the low side, lol! I am MUCH better at verbal.

Thanks for the encouragement you guys! Now I just have to decide if I need to take it again to improve that Q.

If you're at a 1270 I would say don't worry about it. As long as your GPA isn't weak. I REFUSE to take it again (ok well not refuse, I really don't wanna). My scores aren't that much different than yours. (I think, I don't now what this 164, 148 nonsense is lol, I took the old style)

I was using benz. peroxide for years without problems, then suddenly I started to get allergic to the stuff... My face would turn bright red and become really itchy every time I used something with that in it. Now I have to look for things without benz. peroxide in it.. I also never have had the problem of dryness... Well when it comes to my face and scalp.. I have super oily skin and hair... It is annoying..

Never had any pimples growing up. Now I get maybe one every year.

It's a good thing I never had a lot of them, because the one I get every once in awhile I just can't help picking at. :meanie:
 
Got a package from my parentals from the states today!!!!! YAY! It had cinnamon gum, jelly bellys, G2 mix, peanut butter m&ms, pens, and combos!!!!!!!! HELLS TO THE YEAH!!!!!

Pre-ordered my new phone last night totally not expecting it to ship for 10 days since it's been backordered for like two weeks. Got an email today saying it's been shipped!! So excited since it means I'm that much closer to getting rid of this flip phone. Now to find a case that I like.

Me too! I might have had occasional one before then, but it got really bad as soon as I turned 20 while I was abroad. I have some faint scares because I'd pick at them. I'm finally found a face wash that I think works for the most part, although I feel like my face is breaking out more lately since I'm sweating all day from the heat. I've been using the Aveeno Clear Complexion which has like 0.2% salicylic acid, so it's nothing compared to a lot of other products out there.
 
Yay DVMD!!!!



SOOOO happy for you :soexcited:

I'm on my phone so I'm assuming you're asking what the little black critter is. That would be a week old hyena who's mama died giving birth to.

Ugh. WANT! Am I a terrible person for hoping something at the zoo I shadow at gives birth and doesn't take care of it's baby so I can raise it?
 
I finally got backed up in my fight about going to this birthday party for my dad's dad!!!

My little sister was home last night from the Navy and my dad mentioned the party.. she was like, "Ohh... darn.. Too bad I will be in Texas and can't go." My dad said, "Well, it was going to be when you were home, would you have wanted to go then." My sister's response, "No. Not really."

HA!! Finally!! Now my parents are thinking of going Saturday when I definitely can't go, so I may be spared from a long, boring day hanging out with relatives where over 50% of them aren't actually related to me and I won't have to listen to all of the obnoxious, annoying kids that they can't stop having running around screaming..

She's pretty cute. A little monster at home, but an angel when we go to places. Couldn't ask for a better puppy at those times.

(besides yesterday where she pooped in the middle of an inside mall. Not cool.)

Well my GPA is only around a 3.4-3.5, so I think I'm going to try and improve my Q score. I won't be taking it a 3rd time 😎

agreed! :xf: for everyone that doesn't have it yet.

the weather definitely came up in essentially every appointment at work today.

and, i had fun with it for the first two days or so. 😳
but by last night, it was starting to get a little old when i realized i couldn't do laundry/can't really make any food.
 
Channing Tatum is freaking incredible. If you (the girls of SDN) haven't seen Magic Mike yet, you are definitely missing out. He makes me smile (and drool a bit too).
