sit up Leah!

I have officially decided my posture is terrible!!  As I sit at school working on my Manikin head or in my Theory book I've noticed that all the girls around me have awful posture... and then I realized I do the exact same thing they do! Its SO unattractive. Ever since I've made this discovery I am constantly sitting up, and pushing my shoulders back. The second the word "posture" enters my mind or I see someone slouching I sit up. but I know like 3 mins later I'm probably in the same ugly position again! I don't want to be a crouched old lady. lol, why did I quit ballet?!?
I'm working on it though. I found this website and they have some exercises to help strengthen the muscles that are used for good posture. check it out...

so this week hasn't really been too exciting...

Same old, same old at school. Its a lot of fun! but such a long day.

On saturday Nordstrom had their annual spring fashion opener and me and a few girls from school went and styled hair all day. It was really cool. I burned my hand really bad with the straightener and I have a blister burn on my 4th finger from my curling iron.  OUCH.



Here's a pic of Tanner and I from Sunday.
Doesn't he look like a missionary already?!  It's getting close!

ew.

so...If you cant handle gross things. Don't read.
Three weeks ago I got a small zit on my face. not uncommon right? so I continued my daily routines... school, gym, friends, blah blah blah. Everyday I noticed the breakout getting worse and worse. Not to mention it was painfully itchy. I finally decided that saturday to go to the urgent care. Nothing i tried worked, I couldn't take it anymore.  When I got to the doctor they diagnosed me with IMPETIGO! gross i know. Guess where I got it from?! THE GYM!! even more gross! I had to throw away all my make up, wash all my clothes, sheets, towels. and disinfect everything.
He gave me an oral perscription and advised me to buy OXY a benzyol peroxide face wash. harmless right?

Poor me didn't know I was ALLERGIC to benzyol peroxide. hah, so the next day my face was bright red, because it basically burned my face off, and I couldn't open my eyes!! my face was so swollen! the worst part...I had to go to school because it was my first week! everyone at school thought I was a freak.  Finally after 3 weeks I am healed. and my classmates have seen my real face, hah, they were a bit less scared.

If you notice in the "birthday weekend" post my face is still a bit red. ick.

what I've learned from this...
1.) do not touch your face at the gym!!! not even an itch.
2.) wash your hands. duh leah.
3.) don't judge people who's faces are broken out! it could be worse!
4.) maybe test a small area of the face before using a new face wash. lol
5.) be grateful for clear skin! even if there is a zit or two. haha

ew.

future hairdresser/nurse?/dietetic?/community health organizer?/nutritionist? haha, uh oh.


So I don't have any new pictures to entertain with, but I have exciting news. Im officially a hair school student! scary right?? Hair school really wasn't part of the plan but...I figured since I'm not too far into college I might as well take a break and do it now! Im going to Taylor Andrews in Orem, across from UVU, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. I cant wait to start snipping away! I don't plan on doing anything too crazy to my hair, but all the girls keep telling me they cant wait to get their hand on it. yikes. I'm a bit nervous about that but hey, it grows back. Just a side note...It's so funny how I can already tell who I'm gonna be good friends with and who Im gonna get really annoyed with. I guess thats part of the learning experience right? ughh.
