look at how small the bottle is, compared to a quarter Does the elongated blue top reminds you of something?? Perhaps...... These 2 little bottles burnt a mega hole in my pocket the small bottle of eye-drop costs $139.99 the Simpson's mom bottle costs $152.99 without taking into account Claritin Allergy pills which costs $10+ I'm already broke. What's good about it is that after purchasing my medicine, I just went window-shopping without spending a single cent in Old Navy. So proud of myself huh! (simply because i'm broke) Oh, and I definitely wanna thank my roommate for being such a kind soul!! She brought me to the clinic, pharmacy (several times), HEB and Old Navy (heh!) can't ask for more.

Allergy is killing me!! I have pretty much heard about allergies ever since I came to Texas. running nose, flu, sneezing... all are classified under allergies. and I was confused! those are symptoms of getting a cold or fever! Do the Americans just use another term for catching a cold? (like how they call rubbish bin: trash can, toilets: bathroom/restrooms, soft toys: stuffed animals, and the list can go on forever...) Well, I have been here for 1 year and 7 months. and I have never had any allergies until Now! Boooo to allergies! Now I get what they meant: Allergy really meant allergy and it happens more frequently during Spring when all the plants are starting to bloom and pollen flies everywhere (especially into your nose and eyes) and it makes your nose go running, eyes go itching and watering and all sticky (yucks!), throat goes hurting, body goes aching and lethargy haunt you down! and guess what, this will last for the whole Spring!!! Thank God Texas is more known for the Summer...

' Comparison is the thief of joy' C.S.Lewis We tend to compete over the thing that we find our identity in. we have a lot of desires. evil desires 13 When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; 14 but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. James 1:13, 14 Desires we seek to be fulfilled in a worldly friendship : some girls have the desire to be needed. always feel good when they are needed by their friends. and placing their ident...

1. I got punched today! on my right cheek. Ouch it hurts! but i don't think there'll be bruises (i hope not!) well, it's my self defense class skill test today. and my partner and I are supposed to perform the few punches, elbow strikes, 360 defenses, wrist escapes. and while I'm being the attacker, she defended with all her might *dush* 'Sorry!!!!!' smile. 'it's ok.' I said 'But it hurts. Ouch' 'I'm so sorryy!!' Lol. a good story of how 'disaster' can be turned into a good deal? well, there and then, when we perform our acts to our instructor, she praises us that we remembered to keep our guards up! which a lot of the rest do not remember to do so. haha! we high-5! and told our instructor, cos I just got punched, now i'll always remember to guard my head and face! 2.
