It's been quite sometime since I last updated my blog, whew! I have been so busy with school and work among other things. It is starting to slow down now, so here I am!

Whats going on? Whats new? Nothing much with me except that I can squeeze the time in to update my poor blog as much as I would like to.

I found this interesting, realistic article here. I could absolutely relate to this, red:

Twirling cotton-tipped swabs in the ears. It's nearly irresistible. The use of swabs to "clean" the ears or to remove water is nearly universal (although I have no hard statistics on this). Perhaps it's the way cotton swabs are shaped and "the itch" they seem to "scratch" when we insert one into the external ear canal. But read the label. Their manufacturers recommend that they only be used (wink, wink) on the outside of the ear. The fact is, the ear is a self-cleaning organ. Most healthy people require no routine maintenance. Inserting (or, the less favored approach, jamming) a cotton tipped swab into the ear can damage the eardrum or push wax (cerumen) farther into the canal, making it harder to remove. This may cause a feeling of pressure and decreased hearing. More? Click here.

I have finally stop this urge to play with my ear after I have it bled too many times and felt as though I was having a poor hearing on my right ear where I kept using just anything to poke and prod my ear wax.
