I don't think I have the desire to be a Derm. In order to be a derm you have to go through med school, do all the rounds, get your MD then go on to continuing education for Hair, Skin and Nails it's beyond an MD. I didn't know that, it takes about 8 to 12 years to be a derm (in FL at least) so ya know what I'll stick to my end of it. I wouldn't mind working in an office though, but I see myself more in the spa/resort field or alternative healing. I would like to add some things to my license though like 'reflexolgy' and perhaps 'cranial sacral' and I really want to learn to give a 'Stone Facial' I've had the stone massage and it was wonderful!!!

I'm not really into all the peels and acids I'm much more into the wholistic methods. Every outside client I worked on dozed off during the massage and mask step, it's wonderful to see someone come in all crabby and agitated and have then relax and fall asleep under your hands, although it's hard to get them up off the table , then. They're like completely different people when they leave then when the stormed in. I did ask my teacher though, 'Why do I get all the crabby ones?' she winked and laughed at me hahahhaha, but they weren't too crabby for long BWWAHAHAHAHHA (popping knuckles)

"So here's your first professional question: can you recommend something for Rosacea? I've been fighting it with oral and topical antibiotics, but it keeps coming back."

ahhh Rosacea I have two aunts with this and am prone to it myself. Although the actual cause is 'unknown' they do contribute it to a microscopic parasite. R is aggravated by the Sun, Spicy food, alcohol and extremes of temperature. Make sure to treat your skin as VERY sensitive never use anything abrasive on the areas of R (like a scrub or anything). There are skin care lines that are specially formulated for R. Use soothing products like Aloe or Chamomile/Azulene. Since it most likely is parasitic and is greatly affected by food keep an eye out for what you've been eating when you have a break out, and see if there is something you might need to eliminate or tone down in your diet. Make sure to see a derm for an accurate diagnosis, but also PLEASE read the contraindications and side effects of ANY drug prescribed. I haven't really looked into this too much, but if I hear of anything more I'll let you know.

A Plan to Stop Gun Violence

by Crazy151drinker in

jw
friends

ok folks here is my plan to reduce the amount of gun violence in the u.s. im sorry but i cannot help out the european countries becuase a) i dont live in europe and b) only naughty people have guns in europe.. ok. i have come to the conclusion that drugs in the u.s. need to be not only de-criminalized but legalized so that they can be taxed.

by legalizing drugs the profit gained by selling them will plummet and it will not be cost effective for gang members and cartels to import/deal drugs in the u.s. and the violence surrounding drugs will vanish as there will be no motive (ie $$$$$) to commit such violence.. ok. now the problems.

1) no one likes to admit they are wrong (especially the govt.).

VeniceIT

Ok here's my take on some of this, I think you all have interesting and valid points. I'm really torn on these issues.

I dont' think guns kill people......but they do help. (hahha sorry bad joke)

To me I think legalizing drugs and taxing them sounds like an interesting plan, works with cigs and alchol, but how can you garuntee that these people who have been running cartels and murdering people will pay the taxes?????

I don't think you can gaurentee that it will stop the violence. The violence does not come from the need to sell drugs. It's about POWER, CONTROL and Greed. take away the drug money and they'll just look for something else to control, maybe find something worse like child prostition or child porn or something. It's like treating cancer with a bandaid the ROOT of the violence needs to be stopped the anger and control and fight for power that has been going on for thousands of years and this is the latest outlet.

Besides I think the govt's are involved the drug trade anyway

Whether more people would do drugs?? I don't know. I think the drinking age should be dropped myself simply because the only people NOT drinking under 21 are the responsible ones who aren't gonna be drinking and driving. All those idiots are drinking anyway, all it does is stop a decent person for having a nice glass of Cab with their lasagna (no I'm not bitter). I mean you can kill yourself with ciggys, vote, and die for your country but no Mimosa's at a Sunday brunch??? What's wrong with this picture????

And if drugs are legal what will the kids do to rebel???? I mean know they're gonna have to 'think' of something sheesh that's just cruel hahaha

Ok I know I haven't been around here much lately but I have been rather busy, kinda sorta. Well I have officially graduated from the Florida College of Natural Health and have applied for my License to become an Esthetician!!!! I'm soo excited. I really enjoyed the course which was much more involved in anatomy and skin conditions/problems then I'd ever thought. We actually spent the least amount of time on product knowledge, which I fortunately had a background in due to my previous job. I graduated with a 99.35%, I'd wanted a 100% but well you can't have everything, I blame it all on the gauze pad that was too thin to cover the electrode I was using Arrrggggg!!!!! That was the only point I missed on my evaluation (it was crappy gauze, and the teacher said you know we probably should be using cotton pads) so she marked me off 1 point, she probably didn't think it was any big deal but it threw a kink my average! The reason I was so anal about it was the fact that as a JW kid knowing I'd never go to college anyway I didn't try to maintain a 4.0 in school, and sometimes didn't do homework and stuff cause I was like who cares. Well I have a bit of a different attitude and had a chance to work at it. I think I got pretty close to my goal though, I did get a 4.0!!! So if you have any questions or concerns don't hesitate to ask............................................ . . . . . . . . your dermatologist Ven

NEVER!....allow a non-christian into your home!

by gumby in

"for many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that jesus christ is come in the flesh.

this is a deceiver and an anti-christ.. if there come any unto you, and bring not his doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him god speed: for he that biddeth him god speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

" 2nd john 7, 10-11. what i want to know is....how many of you heathen bastards are guilty of this awfull practice?.

VeniceIT

So does that mean I can't go home????? hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Talk about misaplication of a scripture. You know it's really sad when you can misapply a myth!!!! Now THAT takes some talent hahahahhahaha

Would You Kiss A Smoker?

by Englishman in

jw
friends

just wondering!.

i remember when i was about 16 having a snog with a girl who smoked.

it really was like sticking your tongue into an old ash tray.

VeniceIT

To say nothing of ruining your skin OMG talk about oxygen depervation, I'd hate to see Sabines skin get all nasty and creepy but these things do happen, sun expose is aweful as well. (my teacher would be SOOO proud of me right now )

Well I've never licked an ashtray or kissed a smoker, yet (yet about kissing a smoker, def. no on licking the asktray ) Smoking really does turn me off, but I'm not as sensative to the smoke as I used to be. In my skin care classes there were a couple of gals that smoked and it's not a nice sensation to get a facial with all that smoky smell on their hands and breath going on, they'll need heaps of aromatheropy!!!!!

Would I ever kiss a smoker??? I'm not sure....getting kinda desperate you know hahahahahha

Ven hahhahaha (maybe I should have posted this in the psycho thread?? ??)
