November Goals

Since it’s November, I had a couple challenges I wanted to do. First of all, no spending! At least non-necessity. I’ll still pay rent, bills, loans, but hopefully this cuts my personal spending a lot since the last couple months, I’ve been dropping $200 on random things in addition to spending money on eating out. Second, no/less laundry! I know this is weird and I don’t think I do laundry that often, every two weeks but I’m gonna try to cut back. The reason is I have no much clothes I never wear and even though I do try to put them on rotation, I tend to wear the same ones. This would force to utilize more of my closet. I’m still I have enough clean clothes and underwear to go a month and a half. Of course, there are some I might run out of first since as clean towels so I’m gonna separate my laundry. One hamper for all my tshirts and pjs and the other for the rest of my clothes. And if my second hamper gets full, I’ll do laundry. I honestly have like 50 tshirts. This will save time and money doing less laundry since I’m waiting until they get really full rather than just go on a time line. 

I’ll come up with more goals/challenges so that I can save more money because right now, I barely work so my income is bleh and I’m living paycheck to paycheck pretty much since whatever leftover money I have, I put into my loans.

My roommates all went to Blizzcon this weekend but not before trashing the house. I came home from work to find their friend’s car park in my driveway. Like oh, that’s fine, I’ll just keep parking on the street, get out and walk by all your cars that will just be sitting there to get to the front door for three days. Then I walk in and the place is a mess. Just SHIT EVERYWHERE. I try to keep the dinner table clear so I can prep and eat there BUT THEY ALWAYS PUT THEIR SHIT ON IT. WHY? And it’s not the same shit, it’s always something else. And they leave dishes and stuff all over the kitchen counters. There was no surface space. And the trash and recycle was full WHEN I LITERALLY JUST TOOK IT OUT THE DAY BEFORE. It literally smelled so bad. It’s funny when one of roommates wanted to put her shoes on my shoe rack and I said I’ll make more room but she’s all like it’s okay, I only have a few. Eventually, I cleared out some of my shoes so that the four of us each get two shelves BUT SHE STARTED PILING HER SHOES IN THE CORNER BECAUSE SHE RAN OUT OF SPACE. -.- I just threw them into the very bottom. She has over ten pairs there... All in all, it took me four hours to clean the place.

20 minutes putting shit away

2 hours scrubbing counters, tables, microwave, dishwasher, fridge, stove (which I still can’t clean because there’s stuff baked on there)

50 min or so sweeping with a broom, and then with a swiffer and mopping and then mopping again

5 min cleaning the floor mats

15 minutes vacuuming the stairs (with a regular vacuum so it was annoying)

And some more time cleaning random things throughout the weekend. I threw all their dishes in one side of the sink. If it’s not full, they don’t do it. I left a note on the table that literally says “Stop leaving your crap everywhere.” I was fuming when I got home from work the day they left. I was cussing so much when I was putting their shit away. They’re supposed to come back tonight but I don’t want to deal with them. We’re supposed to have a bbq tomorrow and they said it’s at another person’s place. If they changed it to our place because it’s “clean now” I’ll be so mad. They’re gonna trash the place again. And no, they don’t clean that well. They took one of my kitchen towel to use in the bathroom downstairs and I hate using that bathroom because the last time it was cleaned was by me...when we moved in. Multiple people use that bathroom too.. And they never even washed the towel. It’s been maybe two months and it was visibly dirty. I almost didn’t want it back. But I took it and washed it and I’m keeping all my towels in my room. Let’s hope they’re more clean when they get back.

My skin is recovering from Clarisonic

(Skip this post if y’all don’t wanna hear me rant.)

I bought a brush off eBay (not the best place I know) and upon the second day after using it, my forehead broke out in tiny bumps. I thought it was normal because everyone was saying how it “purges” your skin. Anyways, the next couple weeks, I got bigger acne but it was okay because I could still hide it with makeup. Then I started getting MULTIPLE CYSTIC acne all over my face. It was painful and they had so much pus. I remember popping four of them in one day (bad I know but it literally heal much faster the next day) and ALL of them squirted pus on my mirror. D: It wasn’t until the charge on my brush was a little funny and it would randomly stop that I was going to contact Clarisonic because it had a warranty. Well, when I was googling similar cases, everyone was saying how my brush could be fake. I emailed Clarisonic and they couldn’t conclude if it was fake or not. -.- But one day, I used both my Clarisonic and my old Vanity face brush, AND IT WAS SUCH A DIFFERENCE. The Clarisonic one actually hurts my face with it’s vibrating bristle. It was so irritating. I didn’t realized it until I used my Vanity brush right after and even though it was an exfoliating brush head (Clarisonic has a sensitive brush head), it was SO GENTLE. I was so surprised. So I switch back to my old brush after just 4 weeks of Clarisonic. Within a week, I didn’t have any more big breakouts. Two weeks, I had scarring. Three weeks, my skin was starting to heal. My forehead is completely smooth. Only minor scars remain. I’m about four weeks now and my skin is still recovering from some of the major acne I got. I still get little bumps but it’s probably due to me using expired foundation lmao. Ugh, I should have never bought the Clarisonic. Especially when I had so many major events during the time I used it: bf’s birthday dinner, formal, wedding. My skin sorta recovered for my birthday lol. From now on, I only do the simplest skin routine: mild face wash, sunscreen in the morning. Face brush + acne cream + moisturizer at night. That’s it! Occasionally, I’ll exfoliate and use face masks because I got those in my beauty box and I need to use up all my makeup and skin stuff before buying more lol.

I reached a sudden shift in my life where I don’t know why I bother to keep up with social media. Why do I feel like I need to update the world on what I’m doing just to show people I am doing something with my life? I feel so ugh about it now. I just want to disable all my accounts. I won’t do it immediately because these social media accounts are how I keep up with some of my friends but I’m starting to use them less and less. At least, I don’t update so much. I don’t know why I felt like I had to snapchat everything. I’m going to go mia for a bit.

Another thing is that I’m so disgusted with how much things I own. I’m pretty good at organizing but it’s not worth it. I spend money to buy things. I spend money to buy things to organized those things. And I’m a hoarder so everything clutters. I’m going to try the whole minimalism thing. I trying to get rid of all my junk. Most of it is clothes, shoes but a huge chunk are old school notes. 

I want to start 2018 social media limited and clutter free.

Being in a mid-2000s High School Health class and they show you this on DVD

[furlockhound-inactive-moved-dea]

Didn’t that turn out to be a load of bullshit that no-one can replicate the results of to this day?

[theswedishelf]

Yep! His results were faked, and the entire film was basically anti-McDonald’s scaremongering, “poor people are stupid” and “fat people don’t get any sex”. It’s also thanks to this asshat that McDonald’s can’t advertise fuckin’ Happy Meals anymore and had to get rid of all their characters and their super size option, particularly because he claimed without evidence that they have a kid-fattening agenda, don’t list their nutritional info anywhere and have a mission statement from their CEO to make people sick and unhealthy from eating there for every single meal. On top of this, he actually tried to claim in a bonus experiment that McDonald’s fries aren’t actually fries because they don’t rot when left in an airtight container for a long time but all the burgers do–which is thanks to the oil and salt they’re loaded with, not some big conspiracy where the fries, which are processed and supplied by McCain in Canada, aren’t actually goddamn chopped potatoes–and equated the containers to a human stomach. Yes, cause the human stomach is an airtight container that food sits in for months, right? Spurlock, did veganism turn your brain completely off or something? Hell, the fucker even tried to claim credit for McDonald’s having salads, falsely stating at one point they didn’t have any before he “exposed” their EVIL PLANS.

Yeah, that’s another thing to remember, he’s apparently a vegan. He didn’t let anyone know he’s one, of course, he only mentioned his girlfriend is one, because it would’ve made his vomiting after a single McDonald’s meal, something literally no one else on the planet has done, seem less ZOMG SCARY.

Want a good film of this nature? Try Tom Naughton’s Fat Head instead, a film where a guy actively proves Spurlock wrong by actually losing weight while eating nothing but fast food for a month. He accomplishes this by NOT fucking gorging himself on the unhealthiest food choices, eating more meals than he claims or cutting out his usual physical activity. While he’s at it, he also exposes exactly why Spurlock is a total fraud. In the process, he gets actual doctors and nutrition experts to help him explain why everything you know about healthy eating is probably wrong or half-true, inform us about good and bad cholesterol, expose the real reasons behind the so-called “obesity epidemic” and point out why fat =/= unhealthy by default. Yeah, Naughton encourages viewers to try the paleo diet in the end, but at least it comes off more as a suggestion and doesn’t demonize anyone in the process.

[yungtarkatan-deactivated2018110]

Wow, everything I know is now a lie.

[picketsmodblog-deactivated20181]

Also, to elaborate on this, Spurlock claimed that he was eating 5,000 calories a day, and yet when a Swedish university tried this very experiment with several different students, no one (I repeat, no one) could even come close to replicating the results.

So yeah, Spurlock basically lied to prove a point, who would have guessed
