365 New Things

HELLO! Long time, no post. I’ve been really busy with work, grad school, and life. But I graduated in August so I’m back! Occasionally, I get bored of my daily routine (ex work 8 hours, work out, make dinner, watch a show, go to bed). Therefore, I’ve decided to challenge myself to try something new each day, 365 New Things (in terms of cooking, eating, drinking, reading, travelling, fitness, games, careers, good deeds, and more). I hope it will inspire others to be experimental and exploratory to try new things in your lives as well. I encourage you to read my blog, follow me in my adventures, and share your new things as well.

I leave you with this expert from a post from Trying New Things, by Alex Lickerman (www.happinessinthisworld.com/2010/02/28/trying-new-things). In summary, here’s a list of things I try to remind myself whenever I’m faced with trying something new:

• Trying something new often requires courage.
• Trying something new opens up the possibility for you to enjoy something new.
• Trying something new keeps you from becoming bored.
• Trying something new forces you to grow.

Good luck and happy adventures to us all!

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?
