There are times that I think back on my academic life, and realize how much smoother it all could have gone. I could have taken many more college classes while I was in high school , because the classes were free. I took two computer classes, one math class, and intro to Psych. I think sometimes of how I should've taken freshman English or world civ. A higher math classes. Biology. Things that every freshman must take.

Alternatively you can mix a couple common household products and slap that on your face for the same effect. True story. Inspired by Michelle Phan/Rice Bunny , I decided to make my own pore strips.
