Mission: AWAY FROM HOME

Going to the beach on Fri nite was a terrible mistake.  I 4got that my face is sensitive to the salty sea water.  The same happened when I went cycling wif my coursemate Nazreen on 10th Mar after our course - my skin (the nose area) gets irritated & turn red like sunburnt for days.  It's absolutely fine if I went on other days, but why it was a mistake was bcoz I'd forgotten that I've my facial appt in 2 days.  I always keep my face as gd as possible (by staying home 48-60hrs b4 my facial) or else if they see my nose red, they wont do my facial (as they'll make my nose even more sore by the steaming & pressing!!). 

While getting ready for my facial appt, after shower, I realise my nose & the surrounding area was red...I quickly dab wif Wajah Beauty Ctr's super moisturiser.  But wif the heat/aircon I was exposed to on my way to the Centre, my nose condition didnt subside.  I was looking forward to this facial since last Sun as the white-heads on my nose are making their appearance already...but the gal didnt even touch my nose to clear the white-heads!!  Which makes today a wasted facial session!  U see, I dun have pimple problems on other parts of my face, what the hell was the gal pressing out then??!!  The new gal didnt also apply the masque properly on the nose (she didnt wanna aggravate the nose).  My face looks clean after the session, but it doesnt feel clean like after my previous facial session.  Wasted, really!! *sigh*  But I learn something today - the gal who attended to me today is not as dumb as I thought she was when she juz joined couple of mths back - she's v. gd in her job, v. knowledgeable wif the face condition.  I juz hav to give her a chance to understand my face since she's nvr treated my face b4.  Nxt appt is on the 1st day of Ramadhan (24 Sep)...but instead of a 4pm appt. I requested for earlier so I can be home for buka...so it's gonna be @ 1pm, dreadful or not!

On a separate note, I need to plot a scheme to stay away from home these next 3 mths.  The more I stay away from home, the btr my mental well-being will be.  Dont ask me why, tum nahin samjhoge...

As u know...my 15x laser treatment @ Wajah Beauty Ctr ended mths back.  The boss wanted me to continue wif another 15 laser treatments ($930), but I frankly told her that I cant afford such sum so I'll give it a miss for now.  As it is, when Mom insisted I get treatment there, she had thought they cld cure my nose skin problem within the prescribed 15 laser treatments.

Today, when I get very pissed wif my skin problems & recall how ppl used to say my skin has improved when I was on the treatment...it makes me wanna give the laser treatment another chance.  So after my facial just now, I asked the boss if she can do instalment.  She said that for 2nd time customers, she allow 2 instalments (in 2 mths).  I bargained for 3 instalments in 3 mths (ie. $310 p/mth). 

She agreed! (I'm such a talented bargainer!!  I shld be in a marketing/sales career...very persuasive!). 

So now I've to consider it. 

Seriously!

Let's see...if I sign on for the laser, the 1st 5 wks I'll get 2b away from home once a wk.  After that, the 6th wk onwards it'll be once fortnightly.  Hmmm...worth considering, na?  Any sponsors?!!?
