Look A Squirrel!

Look A Squirrel is my AD(H)D blog in which I share my daily experiences and brutally honest realities of life with the condition. I talk about research, managing symptoms, social stigmas, relationships, co-morbid conditions, self-esteem and college. I hope this blog can help some of you out there who may be thinking that you might have ADD and don't know who to talk to.

Expressions of Beauty:
   The Culture of Cosmetology and What the Cosmetics
    Industry Doesn't Want You to Know

  I've always been fascinated with ancient beautification rituals and hygiene methods that were used by the likes of the Romans, Greeks and Egyptians. Many of our modern cosmetics were inspired by and evolved from the beauty recipes of those vibrant and healthy civilizations. 
   For individuals with sensitive skin, searching for a cure for acne or dry skin can often leave them feeling discouraged, their wallets empty and their skin no better or worse of than it was before. But there is a wonderful world of beauty recipes for skin, hair, nails that still exists today that many people don't know much about. 
   Whether you want to use all natural products, reduce your budget, experiment, or just incorporate a couple alternative methods into your routine, there is a DIY natural beauty recipe out there for you!
    We've all heard about face masks with food items such as cucumbers, strawberries and yogurt but there is so much more that simple, natural ingredients can do for our bodies! 
    In my Health & Beauty blog, I want to share the fascinating information about natural cosmetics that can be made in your own home that really work! Not only do I share my experiences and opinions but also provide links to other sources of information so that you can form your own opinion and decide what is best for you. Aren't you a little bit curious? Check it out!

Democracy Now

    http://www.democracynow.org/ is a great source of news, if you haven't already heard of them. Here's a description from their site. "Why Independent Media? For true democracy to work, people need easy access to independent, diverse sources of news and information. But the last two decades have seen unprecedented corporate media consolidation. Democracy Now is an national, daily, independent news program hosted by Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzalez."
