this summer.

This summer has been absolutely horrid. on the third to last day of school i picked a spot underneath my right nostril and in between my eyebrows. these two spots acted weird; instead of scabbing over they just got all gross and crusty. for weeks i was freaking out not knowing how to treat them. finally i put ScarAway (silicone sheets for scarring) on them and that made the initial weirdness go away, but they're still both really noticeable scars. ESPECIALLY the one in between my eyebrows. but apparently that wasn't enough for me; i also picked at a spot on my forehead, and a few on my nose. there's also a small spot on my chin, but i didn't pick at it so i don't know what that is. christ. i've literally spent my summer avoiding going out because of my face. i've skipped about 4 parties and countless invitations to hang out with my friends. the ironic thing is, all school year i was excited about this summer because 'i looked the hottest i'd ever looked!'. one month into my summer and i'm pretty sure this may be the worst i've ever looked. and the kicker? i have naturally super clear skin. i think i've gotten maybe three pimples in my life. now look at me. i pray to god this goes away soon.

*This actually is me... (i know). the tan thing under my nose is the silicone sheet. i put a silicone sheet on the scar in between my brows as well, but lately i've been trying out olive oil as well. i'll probably be going to the doctor's soon to see if they can give me something that'll treat it better. i expect the spots on my nose and forehead will clear up by this time next week. if you know of anything that may help, let me know.
