On being fat and pregnant...

Image
When I got pregnant.. I said that I know I will be fat but this time I will be happy… Yes, I am super happy that I am finally pregnant… but I guess it’s not that easy to accept the physical changes in our bodies… I now constantly look at myself in the mirror and observe the changes…. From slight changes to big changes… I am only on my 3 ½ months… and I know I still have a long way to go… more big changes to come in the near future… So as you can see, at this early stage, I already have this internal struggle of trying to accept the things that are happening to me… It is actually okay because I naturally have this optimistic side that I can just look at the mirror and after a while, I can brush off all negative thoughts and accept things.

Simple or Complicated Girl?

Image
I happen to browse one of the blogs I am following: Chuvaness  and I came across of two tests.... Are you a simple girl? OR Are you a complicated girl? I only got 12% on being simple and 65% on being complicated.... So I guess my score says it all... Fine, I am complicated... but wait, I guess that's a typical woman... it is normal for a woman to be really complicated and that makes us interesting human beings! Hehehe :) Below is a snapshot of the "Are you complicated quiz". You can see more details in Source - Chuvaness Check this out to see if you are simple or complicated...
