happy new year

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas, and WILL have a happy New Year!!

Eczema Results

Well, taking care of my body..kinda worked. I put lotion on 2-3 times a day, took care of my body, an put medicine on all the eczema spots i have. But i tried that for more than a week, i saw some improvements but not major ones. So the other day my mom got me, Eczema Medicated Moisturizer from Dermearest. Which all it is, is lotion. I started using it yesterday night. It makes my face flaky a little but i think it is working. It doesn't make my face as red like other things have, but i have only been using since last night (like i said). It needs sometime to start showing improvement.
When i use to use coconut oil, i think that was working but i don't put it on much (i like, forgot about it). And it makes my face red so i cant wear it to school, but it may have worked! idk
But when i stop using this (because the box says-use only for one week, if no improvement see your doctor) i will try coconut oil. But i definitely see a doctor about it if this does not work!!

Eczema

Like many i was born with Eczema.
What is Eczema??-Eczema is a skin disorder/disease. Eczema includes dry skin, skin rashes or Redness of the skin. As well as these symptoms-persisting redness, swelling of the skin, itching and dryness, crusting, flaking skin, blistering, cracking, oozing or bleeding.
Eczema is one of the diseases that doctors haven't found a cure that definitely works.
I have tried coconut oil (i see some sign of my eczema getting better, but i don't put it on much because it makes my face ORANGE!!), I have tried petroleum jelly (it works pretty good but takes a long time!), I have tried just washing it and letting it go (but you shouldn't do that. Keep the eczema moist). Right now i am putting Vaseline Lip Therapy, from walmart. But all it is really is white petroleum jelly. I have seen a sign of it healing but i put it on everyday and i haven't been able to go 1 day with out stuff on.
When i don't have stuff on, it is red..then it gets dry, then it cracks. Then the eczema gets worse.
When i went to Italy i had no eczema, but then i started gym at school. I got all sweaty and started itching, i started to see eczema on my arms. I quickly got rid of it, but when we moved to north Carolina. It came back on my arms, then i got it on my hands again. And soon enough i had eczema on my face for the first time ever!!
That is why i said ^^above^^ (lip things). Because i have it on my face. It started out how it wasn't there all day, but in 6Th period/7Th the flakes came. It was like that for a couple days. So i tried putting Neosporin, but it didn't work. Then i tried the medicine i got from the hospital -
but it is too strong for my face and i did not see improvement.
After those there was petroleum jelly, really worked..but made my face red. People started noticing. Before i knew it people were talking about me and my eczema!! I was so embarrassed! I didn't know how to react. I didn't want anyone to judge me because of my eczema, i wanted everyone to know that i was just like them.
Then i put the Vaseline stuff on, i still do. I like putting it on my face, some times it wasn't even red!! But it is red most of the time, letting me know i still have eczema. I don't want to be reminded, i don't want anymore stress. Stress=itching, itching=scratching.
I started looking online at pictures of people having eczema, just like me. And i realised i only had a minor case of it. Realizing people would reject me more if i was like that, making me feel more sad for them instead of me. Me thinking of the other people who have it worse than me. I also started reading online of cures for eczema, i found many and tried many. But i like coconut oil the best..i used it once and went to school with it on. Then when i was leaving class to go to 2ND and 3rd period people started telling me my face was orange!! I'm like OMGGGG!!! After school was over i ran home, washing it off as soon as i got home. But i still put it on, when I'm not around other people. So i don't feel as embarrassed. Which leaves me with less stress.
But like other people i had started scratching myself at night, i couldn't take it. I'd wake up in the morning with blood all over, with scratch marks. So i put mitts on my hands, i could still scratch myself but the marks weren't as serious.
But i too still suffer with eczema on my arms, face, neck and hands. It is attacking my body, and i want it gone!! I had soon started thinking that if i take care of my body more my eczema would be gone!! I had read this on a website today- www.beateczema.com
It is a book review and tells about the book, but if you read on the woman is telling you what i am saying now.
My eczema is on and off all the time, i have beaten eczema before and i can do it again!! It came back because of my reckless actions. BUT THIS TIME I AM GOING TO BEAT IT FOR GOOD!!

Romantic Movies

Ever since i watched, Dirty Dancing, the other week, I have had a thing for romantic movies!! Dirty Dancing was really good, i loved it!!! After DD, i watched, About Last Night, with Demi Moore. About Last night was really good!! Demi Moore is really pretty, but ever since i have watched ALN, i keep seeing her in like, every movie i watch!!! Then i watched Against All Odds, but i forget that one (i was asleep for most of it.) Then i watched Ever After, with Drew Barrymore. That was a good movie too. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, THE LAST ROMANTIC MOVIE I SAW LAST WEEK (well, tectonically this week-i watched it last night) The lake house!! That movie was really interesting, how someone was from 2006 and the other person was from/in 2004.(or maybe it was 2008 and 2006..idk!!)
but i cant wait to watch another one!!!

Going to school

Well, im going to school right now. It takes me from 1 hour to 30 min to get ready. I mean i am a teenage girl, i take a long time!! lol

• Then at 8:00-8:05 i leave and walk down to the bus stop.
• It takes me a couple of min to get down the hill.
• Then i get to the bus stop
• See my friends
• And the bus usually comes at 8:15-8:20

Then school gets out at 4:00-4:05 and i usually get dropped off at 4:15-4:20 and i always get home BY 4:30. And then i usually do my homework. Hang with my friends at 5:00 and if i didnt finish my homework before i left. I always do it after i get home, before my dad gets home!! :p

count down to christmas

THE COUNT DOWN TO CHRISTMAS..it is now 24 more days to chrismas!! The countdown to christmas (on tv) started in NOVEMBER. I'm so excited for christmas, but christmas isnt about the presents. To me it's about being with your family and celebrating Gods birthday.
On facebook people were posting stuff about, how you should not call it X-mas because that is like X-ing out God on his birthday.

CHRISTMAS MADNESS..well, not really

Most of my friends hung their christmas tree on thanksgiving!! OMG I was really excited to hang out tree and decorate it. I knew we werent going to get a big tree, because we dont have room for one in our apartment. My mom bought a little plastic tree. GOOD ENOUGH!!!And when i got home and saw the tree, we decorated it right away!! It was fun. I love hanging with my mom, we can really connect. I love her!!!

My social studies project

Well, you know i am in middle school. And middle schoolers have projects for different projects. So far i have done a project for science but now we are doing a project for SOCIAL STUDIES!!
I love social studiesssss, Mr. Kurtz is sooo fun. He lets us play games and have fun but still have homework and classwork to do.
So the project is to make our own city-state in Greece or Rome. It must be called something that has to do with Ancient Greek or Roman Mythology.
Mine is called Romana, i choose it to be connected with Rome and Italy. Because of me living there. I love this project so much, but i am kind of afraid that my teacher isnt going to like it.

MY LONG AND SHORT-TERM GOALS

So yesterday me and my mom were watching Julie and Julia. In the movie Julie had a long-term goal. To right on her blog everyday for 365 days (a year). As well as, doing a certain amount of recipes. So my long-term goal for a year, maybe, is to write on my blog everyday and write more posts then i did on my last blog- www.litlep.blogspot.com . When i stopped i did- 130 posts. Last time i posted/blogged it was on November 13 of this year. So far on this blog i have done- 12 posts but counting this post-13.
My short-term goal is to get good grades in each quarter of school, but i am already doing that so i thought i would choose a new one. My new short-term goal is to clean my room on a Thursday every week for a month!!!
Those are my goals...WHAT ARE YOURS???

ELA AR READING LOGS

At my school, in ELA we have to read books and take tests on them as a part of our grade. We also have to make AR logs/summary's about the books and pages we read. The first 9 weeks we had to do 12 and then the second 9 weeks we have to do 24 new ones!!! So tiring!! Me and my mom were wondering if i can see the AR list of books that they have tests on, online. So i emailed a teacher from the library/media center and she told me how. So i got the books from my room and saw if any of them were on the list (some of them were). So that i could read those. My mom wondered if we could print the list and she asked how many pages...and i was like that is a good idea let me see. 32 PAGES!! OMG, when i told her that she is like hell no!! hahah i ♥ my mom!!

I steal ideas!!!

So my bff Emily has a blog too and so does my mom, as well as other friends. I like stealing their ideas because they're so cool. Like Emily did a post about her loving NEON COLORS. Sorry Emily. And when i still posted on Little P I stole ideas from my mom and other friends. But now I'm just going to be myself no matter how stupid the post is, I'm not stupid I'm crazy, a good friend, awesome, someone you can trust SMART, cool, amazing and apparently pretty!! hahah
Got a problem?!?! Well that's just me!! And maybe i didn't steal Emily's color post maybe I'm just showing how colorful and unique i am. YA NEVER KNOW WITH ME!! hahah
byeeeeee

My life as a middle schooler

Since i am in middle school i do have several responsibilities that i don't have in elementary. I have 8 periods in all, but 2 of them are homerooms. I was going to show pictures of my teachers and stuff but they wouldn't paste onto my post....
Right now it is the second 9 weeks, but still the first semester. I am taking keyboarding and health/PE as my encore classes (2nd and 3rd periods). My schedule is messed up, because for 4th period everyone goes to homeroom (my homeroom is social studies) but i go to science instead. And im not the only one with a schedule like that. My fifth period is ELA and LUNCH PERIOD!! yeaaa i love 5th period!! ahah My 6th period is the worse..MATH, i hate my math teacher, i mean she could be a little nicer. And then my 7th period is homeroom, ss. Social studies is really fun, we get to do games and fun stuff but we still get homework and classwork. And my homeroom teacher is the ONLY male teacher in the 6th grade hall!! Can you belive that!!!???
welll by guys!! please comment!

My kitten sugar

Me and my friends found these kittens in the back yard, we didn't know if they belonged to anyone. (I still don't think they do though.) But the woman that lives in the house, near where we found them, has been feeding them/her. And her son took them to get shots at the vet so they are ok for us to hold. Anyway, I say "them" because there was five of them. But not anymore, because my friends let go of 2 of them and someone dropped one. You see, we had all of them, then they went missing and only 4 came back. Then the things I said above happened. But nothing has happened to mine. Above is a picture of MY kitten sugar. I don't know how old she is though. But if i had to guess, i would guess she would probably be a month or a few weeks old. Sometimes she really wants to play with us and other times she falls asleep in our arms!! She is really cute, we all love her. She is the only one we have left...
