Less than 2 months to go.. you know what this means (for the bride)? Time to get really nice toned arms and start running again for Unicef at the end of November. hehe I've started working out my arms by doing a whole lot of repetitive light 5 lb weights because I simply drool every time I see Kate from Lost / Evangeline Lilly's arms. On the downside, not much progress has been made on my side. Guess I'll need to boost it up a notch and lift 8-10 lbs.. :P *Roar! It's funny when I tell Asians that I want nice toned arms and they give me an aghast expression like 'why would you want to do such a thing and look muscular like a man?' haha Obviously my objective is not to look bulky with terminator guns but having that bit of definition is really nice. :)
So, this week my bridesmaid dresses arrived and I almost melted into a puddle of unhappiness because my eyes were playing tricks with me and/or the lighting was really dim when I took a photo of the dress. Basically I ordered champagne color and somehow I felt like it was reaaally pale and totally lacking in color. I was upset for the large part of the day and even sent an email to the store telling them off sort of. I asked them why the original swatch sample differed so much with the final outcome. Fast forward a few hours, I'm at home and taking the dress out from the plastic bag and to my relief the color is fine. Just a teeny bit lighter than the dye lot sample but no need to go on a emo-eating rampage by eating a bag of nachos, croissant and more chips right BEFORE dinner out with Michael and Jan. :P Stupid girl worrying over some slight color variation on a dress? *psh rolls eyes* I think I have the potential to be a real uptight fuss but luckily I'm pretty good at controlling my EQ.. Poor J has to deal with all of this..having to hear me out and trying his best to stop me from shoving munchies down whenever I have massive craving attack but also trying to be empathetic and letting me do what I gotta do.. Heh love you hun!! :PRandom thought of the day. You know how people joke around after you've been dating for a while and they say you have 'fu chai serng' (aka look more like hubby and wifey?) It's funny cuz we get that alot and I do think we have the same smile sometimes :] hehe J's off to Macau this weekend and I've packed alot of outdoorsy activities with biking on Saturday and hiking on Sunday followed by a mani/pedi right after to sooth any nasties. Okies time to head out and hope it doesn't rain!
