Tell me about pimples!
Suzanne, SYMPATHY! I am 25 and I NEVER had pimples when I was a teenager but now they seem to come up all the time. At the moment I have millions, I think because I haven't been sleeping well and ... erm ... I pick at them (TMI?). I have really dry skin too, so they get sore. ANYway, my best remedy is Savlon, always works a treat except of course I can't get it here in Spain ... if you can't get Savlon I guess any antiseptic cream would do. I put it on before I go to bed.
Stacey, Ali - WOO HOO on the compliments! That is so cool!
And Brenda, I know what you mean about wanting to try trendier clothes now. All the way through school and the first few years of college I would wear anything that fit ... I didn't have jeans for years, but I did have a Laura Ashley pinafore (this is like, 10 years ago before they revamped) that made me look pregnant. Now I have bootleg jeans and a teeny t-shirt with flowers and glitter on the front! Maybe for the summer I'll get one of those bak-baring tops ... but only after LOTS of fake tan ...
Emily! Good to see you again! And YIPPEE on the house, I have everything crossed it's good news on Monday.
Belle - Thai is lots like Chinese. Avoid curries with coconut milk and the deep fried starters. If they have sweet and sour fish, that is GOOD and if they have mixed seafood, even better. Hot and Sour soup is only about 2 points and sticky rice is steamed not fried so not many points there. I LOVE Thai - ENJOY!!!
Jen, Ali, I got highlights for the first time just before Christmas, a mixture of blonde and chestnut "for texture" the hair lady said. I really like them, and they got rid of the line from my last attempt to dye it myself. Must get it done again when I get home (blonder for the summer?). Let us know how it turns out!
Kay, Trish, Brenda - good luck on staying away from ciggies and donuts. I have 3pts left for my chocolate tonight! YIPPEE!
Oh, and Milk Tray is not just chocolate, it's a whole cultural phenomenon. Really! They had all these adverts in the seventies with a man in black, kind of a cross between James Bond and the SAS, and he would be scaling cliffs and walls and flying helicopters and climbing mountains and then in the end he would climb through a window and leave the chocolates ... and the slogan would come up 'And all because the lady loves Milk Tray'. Ultra-Romantic! (If very machista) Chocolates are good, too.
Anyway, better dash. Hugs to everyone I missed, adn have a FABBY weekend - remember, JOURNALJOURNALJOURNAL!!!

Well it's still snowing/sleeting here. Fun fun. I wanted to go shopping to the mall sooo badly earlier but I stepped outside and almost fell so I figured it probably would be better to stay in! LOL Okay I have a question... has anyone seen either The Mexican or Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon? Anything good or bad to say about either of them? I'm trying to formulate a plan for tomorrow and a movie would probably be part of it, but I wasn't sure which one to pick. Any other movies out that are good??
