Mask: My Skin and the Acne that covers it!

For a few years now i have been battling Acne. So far its been a losing battle. Oneika's Skin- O vs. Acne- 100+ lol ( a little dramatic but you get the point). I've tried drug store products, I've tried brands advertised in commercials...Proactiv ( a highly popular brand)and Vichy (Expensive but worth it if you have the cash to spend on that every month). I've even tried presciption drugs for my face, but nothing works. I guess also because i haven't been consistent with it either.

Well, now i have gone back to my doctor and he prescribed this medication that he like swears by called Clindomycin I believe. He says that his sons used it and it cleared up their horrible acne no problem. And because i'm really desperate and dying to clear up my really bad skin, I am going to give it a try and this time, i'm going to document my progress and stay consistent with it.

By the way, if you don't have a drug plan this little product here runs about $50-$60 a tube. depending on your drug plan you can pay between $5-$11 :d Thank goodness for drug plans!!

Lol don't mind my face, these were taken a few minutes after i woke up...me in all my natural glory LMAO!! And because camera's don't pick up all my skin flaws i had to use a photo editor to show all my skin imperfections.

Here are the results of Week 1 using the prescription drug:

Hot azz weather all weekend....

Ugh! okay, normally i'd be pretty happy about hot weather, but we've been getting Hot-Azz weather. Like honestly, just standing outside for like a minute, you start to break a sweat, its so gross. It was suppose to rain this evening, and i was so excited but no....it didn't happen, it just continued being hot as hell all night.

I'm at a friends house at the moment and she lives on the top floor, pent house, and you know what they say about hot air: Hot air rises. So its pretty hot in here, i'd take the bus home but its 1:39 in the morning and her area is confusing to get around in at night ( okay, so it might have to do with the fact that i suck at directions lol...don't judge me :P).

so i'm sleeping in the living room with the balcony door open. I just hope i don't get attacked by any pigeons while i'm asleep lol

so here's the weather forcast for the weekend here in Toronto, Canada lol
Saturday---> 35° C
Sunday-----> 28° C

Apparently on Monday its suppose to be 27 degrees C with Thunder and lighting. We'll see if it happens (PLEASE HAPPEN!!!)

Monday Night fun :D

I get this call from my friend from college (Ashia), okay more like a text....no one nowadays really calls anyone anymore lol :P Right so i get a text saying: FREE SLUHSIES AT THE 7-ELEVEN ALL NIGHT!!

I text-ed back saying i definitely want to go. We met up at my place and then too the bus downtown. We went to the closest 7-Eleven close to the subway station. Now when we get there to get our free slushy, guess what happens! THEY RUN OUT OF CUPS!! Seriously?! LOL!! After getting over that, we went to McDonald's to grab a bite to eat. Ashia ordered 2 burgers and i ordered a meal lol :P

We then hopped on the subway and headed to Dundas square to take a few pics :) it was alot of fun :D

Hot Hot Hot Weather= Sticky and sweaty girl :P

For some reason I didn't really pay much mind when my mother and brother had warned me about how hot today was going to be. Until I went outside today my damn self and walked for abit and started sweating like crazy. I seriously felt like melting chocolate. it was crazy. Now this extreme hot weather has carried into the night and i am still hot and sticky. After this I plan on taking a nice cold shower and then SERIOUSLY CONSIDER SLEEPING UNDER MY BED!! HEHE!! because on my bed its hot aswell and i am not enjoying the feeling.

I checked the weather this afternoon, it was 37 degrees Celsius! which is pretty hot. I remember a few times it got as hot as 43 degrees Celsius, its nuts. i'm actually looking forward to winter now haha!

I've set a date, and thats when i am going to dread my hair (DREADLOCS!!) and some other shit lol :P

Snail mail: Letters to be Sent out

Thank the Good Lord, the postal strike is over and possibly resolved. I'm not about to get into the whole nonsense of how it started. because i truly just don't give a damn, lol :P
I'm just happy that i can finally receive my letters again, I truly missed them! Sadly since the ending of the postal strike I've only received one letter from a penpal. I really hope the rest are on the way, and not lost somewhere.

The other thing, since the postal strike i sort of took a break too. I mean my letters weren't going anywhere anyways right lol. But anyways now the hard thing for me to do now is getting back in the swing of things and get back to writing letters....too bad i'm also out of damn stamps lol. I swear when one problem gets resolved several more problems appear....Boo!

Ah well i'll get some money soon hopefully.

My little faux hawk turned curly afro!

For about a week now (and a few days lol) I have had my hair in single twist (or as the rest of the world calls them, 2 strand twists). Then got bored with it/it started getting messy. So i decided to re-style it somehow :D I took out my twist and did a few cane-rowes (corn-row for the rest of the world lol) on both sides of my head. and this is how it turned out.

I never thought i would look good with an afro, heck even a faux hawk for that matter, but its growing on me. My hair has never felt so free hahah!! it'll be an adventure washing and detangling all that hair later on though haha
