Jessica Lange is the epitome of a golden girl because she’s
literally glowing at her age-- laugh lines, crow’s feet and all. She’s
sophisticated, refined and witty. That’s why I love her.
I’ve been reading about power dressing and I’ve
fancied myself wearing a power blazer and killer heels. Think about someone
working for an insurance company but it doesn’t have to be a boring black and
white ensemble. Anyways, since I’ve lost a significant amount of weight for the
past couple of months, I need a major wardrobe update because all I’ve been
wearing are oversized everything. I’m 28 and I think I’m ready for some big change.
For years, I’ve shunned away from dressing what a normal working woman must
look like. I hate dressing up like everyone else.
And this is me doing
something out of the box.
I wrote this entry last March. I can’t even remember why I
forgot to post this. Anyway, thinking about weight lost and power dressing made
me smile. It made me feel like a grown-up. But, I’ve been gaining weight and I
couldn’t even wear shoes with a 2-inch heel BECAUSE I’m pregnant!
A month after our Boracay shindig, I missed a period and it
made us buy a couple of pregnancy kits because we’re excited? Ha-ha. We’re
kind of expecting this. So after a series of peeing and peeking, I finally told
the hubby, hugged him and cried because I was just so happy.
But it doesn’t end there.
So a couple of weeks after that, I was crying again. Not
because of morning sickness, but because I’ve been bleeding. I was so confused
because it’s been positive all along but how come I’ve been experiencing PMS? We rushed to the hospital and the doctor told me that
we have a month to wait if the baby will be strong enough to survive the
contractions. So for a month, we waited anxiously. I’ve cried myself to sleep
because I was just so scared.
And it was just a test of faith.
I’m on my 18 weeks now. I’m a vegetarian once more. Just a
few weeks ago, my face was covered with perioral dermatitis. I
couldn’t use organic facial products. I couldn’t even cry because my skin will
go red. It’s hard being pregnant but hey I’m not complaining.
