I'm Actually Learning Something...

So I haven't wrote anything in a lil while and recently had 2 epiphanies that I am actually thinking and applying things learned I've in class to my everyday life. It's not rocket science in the least but here goes:

Ethics for the 21st Century:
I watched Duplicity the other night and I kept getting annoyed. All I kept thinking about was how unethical these people were being by lying, cheating, stealing, playing games, being greedy, etc. Businesses should be run ethically with truth, honesty, integrity, courage, open communication, sustainability, innovation, and intelligence amongst others values at all times.


Creating Sustainable Enterprises:
Last week, I come home annoyed to my fairly large apartment complex to see big, blue, plastic bags full of phone books by each apartment door. Not only was it 1 huge phone book, but 3! And not only was it my apt complex but other complexes as well as houses. Come on, who actually still uses phone books anymore but poor people and old folks? There has got to be a better way to find out who wants a phone book instead of just making a bunch of books that are going to be thrown out and wind up in a landfill. I don't care if they are made with recycled materials and are recyclable, they shouldn't make so many copies. What a waste DexKnows!

111th New Thing - Took a Zyrtec

If you recall, I went to the dermatologist to get a skin screening for the 1st time back in December. When I was there, the doctor did a biopsy of 1 of the moles on my back (which came back as normal, by the way). The area was healing pretty well until about 2 weeks ago. The area around the wound started getting bigger instead of smaller and oozing. Therefore, I went back to my doctor to check it out. She said I was having an allergic reaction to something, probably the Neosporin . She gave me some new ointment, Vanos , and said I should take Zyrtec until the area starts to get better. Vanos (fluocinonide) Cream is indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses in patients. Best results are seen if used twice per day. Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. Zyrtec can be u...

364th New Thing - Ate a Mini Lemon Bites

My co-workers birthday was today so to celebrate they bought her a vanilla cake, a chocolate cake, and mini lemon bites from Costco . I had some chocolate cake and a mini lemon bite. These are made by Upper Crust Bakery . They supply Sam's Club, Starbucks, Costco, Kroger, Whole Foods, and BJ’s Wholesale Club. Both desserts that I ate tasted good. According to the Livestrong Calorie Tracker , 1 mini lemon bite is 130 calories, 19 g carbs, and 1 g protein. What did you do today?
