I love aloe plain and simple. It is the first thing I go for after hitting the beach or pool because I like my skin soft and smooth. I even bathe with soap and shower gel that has aloe or shea in it with the fragrance of vanilla or a pleasant flower smell because I like them. I also buy lip balm that has aloe in it. My lips get so chapped, cracked and split to the point where I will start chewing on them if they are not covered with anything. I literally have like 10-15 lip balms floating around my place, car, and office. I even have a couple in my bookbag that I carry with me to and from work with my school books in it so I can study. Recently I have been snubbed by this one company who does not make my brand of soap anymore so I am on the hunt for another brand now that will do just as good as that one had for around 5-6 years.

Bottega Verde has all natural soaps including one that contains shea butter. I most likely will give it a try. They are pretty much the same price I was paying for my other soaps too. Right now Bottega Verde has an Italian Beauty Package samples as a trial. You just have to pay for shipping which is $4.99. It contains foot mint deodorant cream, cherry blossom body wash, and musk rose face mask cream. I may have to try some of the cherry blossom body wash too. I take the body wash with me when I go to the gym for my shower after wards. I have a hard time trying to convince myself I can wait to take a shower when I get home when I am soaking and stinking up my cloth car seats with all of my sweat.

So I heard through the grapevine that the university was going to make it mandatory for every single person working here to have a flu shot. Whether you actually see patients or not makes no difference. I’d like to see them try to give me one. I think flu shots are a crock of shit just like the Gardasil vaccines they toot. These shots do not prevent you from getting sick so why say they will. People get sucked into believing anything. I also know quite a few people who have become deathly ill after receiving the flu shot too who also refuse to get them anymore.

So let’s review the punishment as it were if you do not receive a flu shot. You have to wear a mask for whatever they deem to be the length of “flu season”. That’s all well and good but who is going to check up these people to see if they truly are wearing a mask? I don’t see this one happening. Also, if you think about it, that’s infringing on a person rights. I could also see some lawsuits happening if they make a big stink about it too. What’s next mandatory sterilization? They can bite me for all I care.
